I don't know what it was about Trey's little talk, but I haven't been able to get up from the floor for the last 10 minutes. His words keep echoing in my head like a nightmare I can't wake up from. It hurts, and I know he didn't mean it to, but it does. I guess facing my own mistakes is its own kind of hell.

I let my tears flow, but I kept my sobs in check. My back pressed up against my door. I don't want him to hear me cry. I'm not sure who I'm crying for anyway. Am I crying for Knox and the way I've been treating him today? Like someone who doesn't deserve a chance to change? A chance at redemption? Or am I crying for me? Because I don't deserve him, even if he did change his ways.

I could feel Trey on the other side. I knew he was worried about me, but he was also worried about his friend. I don't blame him for that. Everyone seemed to have been on my side today, but no one was there for Knox. And, yeah he's a guy, but he has feelings too. And Storm... he was hurting, even if I did

    I quickly take a shower and change. I put on a black and red tank top (to match my hair. Like Knox having blue tips in his silver hair, I end up having red streaks in my black hair. It's totally wicked! And believe it or not, we were born like that.) and a pair of cut offs and my sneakers. I run a brush through my hair and put it up in a sloppy pony. I'm not impressing anyone, and I really don't give a damn about what I look like this morning. I'm too freaking tired to care!I grab my bag and sling it over my shoulder and grab an apple and rush from the house. However, when I get out, I sigh and look at my bike. I love my motorcycle, but I'm too tired to ride it... I really don't feel like crashing on my way to school, so instead, I just walk.It's not like I've got to hurry anyway. I'm leaving super early, so I mosey on down to the school munching on my juicy apple. I know I'm going to get hungry later, but I've got emergency chocolate in my locker. You never know when hunger strikes

    I'm exhausted. I have no idea if Knox actually deflowered Dia last night, but there were noises I never want to hear again! There are some major benefits to having a shared home with my brother, but this is definitely not one of them.Not that I'm not happy for them! I'm stoked! Dia will be an awesome sister-in-law. I'm glad one of my best friends is gonna have my brother instead of one of those bitches that just used him for his popularity. Don't think for one minute he didn't know what they wanted... He did! But he was a chicken and didn't go for what he actually wanted! (And believe me when I say I know Storm was pissed he was messing around instead of manning up and telling her the truth!)I love my idiot of a brother, but the dude almost lost her because he's... well, an idiot and didn't tell her how he felt about her in the first place. So when Nadia went after the twins for some affection, of course I had to torture him about it. It was really fun to watch!I did it out of love

    "She pushed a white fire through the deer, but it wouldn't burn. She searched for the location of the source and found it. Then she stuck her hand down it's throat, pushing all her fire down with it. She pulled the cursed stone out, but she almost died," Knox growls, looking down at me.Mom looks like she's about to pass out. I send Knox a hard look, but he looks smug."Don't worry Thalia. I brought her back to life," he sends Mom a reassuring smile."Dia?" Cal asks. Her face is pure white. "You... did you actually die?"I'm not sure I can answer that, so I look up at Knox. This is part of the fuzzy stuff I can't remember. I remember sticking my arm down the deer... but then it's all blank.He looks guilty, and swallows. "Her heart stopped beating... I sent my lightning through her body to wake her up.""YOU LET MY SISTER DIE?!" an irate Trey demands."YOU THINK I HAD A CHOICE? SHE DID THIS IN A MOMENT BEFORE I COULD STOP HER! I PULLED HER AWAY FROM HER OWN FIRE AND DRENCHED HER IN MY

    Later after Knox stopped kissing me, he helped me back into my car. He drove home claiming I needed to rest. And I let him because I really was exhausted, even with all the energy Knox and Storm had given me.I don't know how long the drive was, the moment he was able to start the car my eyelids closed. The gentle humming of the road was like a lullaby.I didn't wake up until Knox had me in his arms and carried me into Grand Elder Anastasia's house. This is basically Knox's second home. He grew up here with his sister. He even has his own room... but he doesn't use it anymore."What happened?" demanded Trey the moment he saw us enter the room. My brother looks pissed, but he shouldn't be. This is not Knox's fault... It's mine. Knox is the one who fixed me.Knox just grunted and sat down with me in his lap. He doesn't seem to care that we are having people give us looks, but none of them seem to be upset. More like they are amused by the situation."You wanna tell everyone, or do you w

    I almost died?"What?""You reached into the deer's throat and pulled out a cursed stone. It almost killed you. I put out the fire you started with the deer. It was trying to eat too. But I wouldn't let your own fire take you," Knox groans, pulling me into his warm body.I almost died... pulling the cursed stone from that poor deer. I remember now.I also remember..."I love you Knox," I whispered.I don't know if I should be embarrassed or not. I wasn't sure if I'd make it through the curse and I didn't want to end my life without him knowing how I really felt about him.Suddenly Knox chuckles. "Baby, I know what you are thinking, and you have nothing to be embarrassed about."I look up at him with questions in my eyes. "How?""Don't you know?" he asked, but his mouth didn't move. But there was a teasing glint in his eyes I couldn't ignore. Nor that smile so radiant it could rival the sun.How the hell did he speak to me in my mind? That only happens when..."When a fairy has found t

    I moan, unable to make coherent speech. My tongue is heavy and dry, incapable of following my command. Everything seems slow to move and my body doesn't feel coordinated at all. I feel like I'm a bag full of bricks!"Baby?" Knox asks. "Can you hear me?" He sounds hopeful instead of sad now... that's good. Now I just have to figure out how to answer him because my mouth isn't cooperating with me.My head is spinning, but I can hear his voice loud and clear. I feel the soft brush of his lips over the top of my hand. That touch sends something through me... I can't tell what it is, but it is giving me strength.I squeeze my hand as hard as I can (which I must admit is pretty weak, but it is something)... the only way I can respond. But I guess it was good enough, because I hear his breath hitch."Nadia! Come back to me, sweetheart. I'm not letting you leave me!" he insists. I can feel him running his hand up and down my arm as he rocks me back and forth like a baby. I can feel my cheek p
