"Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do."
And there's nothing I can do."
The song was right. You only know you love her when you let her go; only miss the rain when it starts to snow...
You only know you're short when you're surrounded by millions of tall people. Hebe children, she guessed, were naturally tall, bulky, and, you know, young. They were basically hot teenage giants. And Cloudy, at barely five feet tall and thirteen years old (which was barely a teenager, for the mathematically challenged) she felt small and insignificant. And she didn't like it, the burning feeling gathering in her chest. So, she decided to do something. Very slowly and carefully, she stood on her chair, just high enough that she was at nearly the same height. Even though she was was being very careful, she lost her balance and fell into her spaghetti.
Many eyes snapped to her, and she dived under the table, her cheeks nearly as red as her hair. She started to crawl- where she was going, she didn't care, as long as it was far, far away from the Hebe table. Soon after, her head collided with something hard, and she squealed, rearing back and covering her head with her hand.
