John glances at Jessica, then at Ashley, really not wanting to start any sort of strife here. So he scratched the back of his neck and shrugs. “It’s all just a bit too much for me to process right now. I think I need to be alone for a bit.”
Ordinarily, John would be all about the party and meeting all the peeps. But it really is too much for him. Not even a month ago he was just an average high school quarterback, then he became much better than average through some means that still baffled him, then he got injured and recovered in about two weeks. Far too soon for that type of injury. Then he found out he could feel every single emotion his worry-filled parents and surprisingly naughty older sister could feel, and it pounded at his head like a hammer on nails. Then he learned that he could fly with a pair of massive bird wings and control other people through their emotions. Nope. WAY too much!
