Kallie's Secret and The Watchtower
“Do
you think we’ll ever be able to live a normal life?” I asked.
Kelsey
shrugged and looked at Kyle. Kyle was the most optimistic of the lot of us. He
grinned and nodded, “Of course we will – shit happens right?”
“Right,”
We both agreed.
He
smiled in his beautiful sunny way, “Well, assuming everything is balanced and
karma exists – it must stand to reason that there will be times when it doesn’t
happen.”
I
shook my head and gave him a ghost of a smile back. “I love your thinking, dude
– but I’ll never be happy again if we don’t find her.”
His
smile faded. “Yeah – I know. I think she’s still alive – when I try to talk to
her in my head, I get a powerful buzzing – like there’s interference on the
line – you know?”
I
nodded. I’d had the same thing happen to me. I was less hopeful that Kyle
though.
Kyle
looked at me seriously, “If she was gone – I’d just get nothing – try it – try
talking to someone you’ve loved and lost.”
Joshua... Coming Soon
“Don’t
worry, Hope – he’s safe – he’s just stayed behind to try to get whoever’s taken
Kallie’s memories away – Josh wants revenge – you know what he’s like.” He
rolled his eyes.
I
nodded. I didn’t blame him either – apart from when he was asking Wesley to put
himself in danger – I couldn’t deny I would want revenge on anyone who hurt
anyone that I loved too and Joshua loved Kallie – that was as plain as the nose
on his face… “Who is it? Does he know yet?”
Kelsey
shrugged, “He didn’t say if he does – but you know what he’s like – he has to
be in a certain radius…”
I
swallowed hard and nodded. What if this was the one – what if he was going to
meet his soul-mate today. Joshua would never be so cruel as to destroy a fellow
hybrid’s soul-mate and even if he did – the damage would already be done –
Wesley would know that he was in love with that person – and he could never be
mine then in any case…
Kelsey
was regarding me with interest as I suffered through my personal hell. “You
know, you could always tell Wes the truth…”
I
stared at him, “Are you kidding me?” I asked, aghast.
He
shook his head, “Nope; that boy has feelings for you – you know he does – why
don’t you just let it happen...?”
I
pulled a face, “Yeah, yeah – sure he likes
me – we get on fine – but he’ll never be in love with me the way you are with
Destiny – or the way Joshua is with Kallie – or any of the others like you lot
– I’m only human remember – he couldn’t ever…”
Kelsey
shook his head, “I don’t agree with you.” He said, smiling as if he knew
something I didn’t, “What if he does? The first gorevans that came here all
fell in love with regular humans…”
I
was about to argue again, but I stopped when I saw his face; what if he did?
