Send messages through IMessage on Iphone 5c?

I'm trying to send a message with my iphone 5c, from verizon, but not activated, to my little neighbor's Ipad. I added him and he appears on my contact list. The messages I try to send him won't deliver. But I can call him through Face Time(video and Audio).

I just got texting on my phone but they said I'd get unlimited texting plus free sending picture messages, but when I tried to click on the picture thing, it didn't open but the picture thing looked grey as if I can't use it but when I use iMessage, it was black to where I could use it. Anyone have a solution?
  • IMessage won't send to another iPhone with iMessage? So my iMessage works to all my friends that have iMessage except one friend in particular. He has iMessage on his phone and can iMessage all his friends but he can't iMessage me. We both have iMessage turned on on our phones but they simply will not iMessage each other.
