He holds me for a long time, not letting me go. He rocks me in his strong arms, whispering reassuring words, telling me he didn't mean it the way he said it. He just wanted me to give my heart to someone worthy of my love, and Amir is not him. I'm so embarrassed. He's holding me in his arms while I cry! I hate crying. Especially in front of him.When I finally have my emotions under control, I pull back and look back up into his sparkling blue eyes. Only this time they are sparkling because it looks like he's been crying too. I lift my hand and softly wipe the tear tracks from his face with my thumb. He surprises me as he leans into my touch."Are you okay?" His voice is rough and raw, matching his emotions in his face. I can almost feel his remorse in the depth of my soul. What is it that I'm feeling? Why can I feel his emotions as if they were my own? Is this something that fairies are capable of? I've been best friends with Nadia for my whole life and I never thought to ask what th

However, my wish will go unfulfilled.The whole day long he's been seething. He won't talk to me, but he follows my every move... Even to the girls bathroom! He hasn't said a word to me, he just follows me around like some dark cloud ready to burst at any moment. I can feel the tension rising off him every moment we keep this bottled up... The problem is, I don't know how to fix this. I don't even know if it can be fixed!At the end of the day, we all gather in the training room. It's our special room where we work on our magic. Trey stays right next to me the entire time. The two of us are quite. So quiet, there are whispers among the others as I work on my fire magic... It seems to be the only thing I can control under the stress right now. Everything else just seems to blow up in my face.My heart has been breaking all day long. I know I shouldn't have said that to him. I didn't mean to hurt him like that. I didn't even know it would hurt him. I just blurted it out!I'm actually su

An hour after I start, I get a text on my phone. I was almost expecting it to be Trey, but my heart stumbles when I see it's his sister... I'm not sure why I should be disappointed. She would want to know what's going on too, after all I'm her best friend and he is her older brother.Dia: Hey, girl. What was up with you and T earlier? He was so sad.I'm not sure how much I can tell her. I'm scared to tell her about my feelings for her brother. What would she think of me? Would she be happy for me? Would she be sorry for me? I just don't know. I am not sure I'll ever have the courage to tell her the truth.Me: Nothing. It was just a misunderstanding. We're all good now.At least that is what I keep telling myself. I want us to be good now. What if we are never good again? What if he knows what I feel for him and all he feels is sorry for me? I think that would be the worst thing ever.Dia: Okay, but he's been sulking since he came home. He won't talk to me about it. I'm worried about h

"My mom just informed me that we are going to the Hallows tomorrow," he sighs, resting his head on my shoulder. The pressure feels so nice and steady. He is completely solid. This must mean I'm not dreaming this up, right? (Actually if I was dreaming, I'd be kissing him by now and I can't seem to bring myself to do that yet, so this must be real.)"Yeah, Mom wasn't too excited about it," I admit, thinking back to our short little talk we had just before Trey showed up. Is this what he wanted to talk to me about? I guess it would make sense. It involves both of us. We probably need to come up with a plan, especially since I have no idea what we are supposed to do exactly. Maybe Trey knows more than I do?"How do you feel about it?" Trey asks, pulling away from me to look into my eyes."I think as long as I have you with me, I should be fine," I answer honestly. I can't think of anyone else I'd want with me. I trust Trey with my life... I just don't know if I could trust him with my hea

Morning came too early. I was up most of the night replaying the scene at the park. I tried to forget about it, but I just couldn't. No matter how much I prayed to forget what went down in the park, it kept repeating like a haunted dream, over and over again.“I won’t let anything happen to you, Callie. I promise!” he said.I was so happy to be with him. I knew he would protect me, even if I didn't think I need protecting. But being in his arms was enough for me. I felt special... and safe. Like I belonged there with him.Trey sighed. “Callie, about Beth-” I didn't want to talk about her!We'd spent too much time talking about her as it was and I didn't want to waste our precious time together talking about another girl! Didn't he know that? Couldn't he understand?“Why won’t you let me finish what I want to say?” he asked, a little frustrated.Yes, I have had a bad habit of cutting him off lately. And I'd feel bad about it, except I'm doing to protect my heart. But I couldn't tell hi
