“Please”I cry through the pain. Place top the pain.”
I blink a couple of time to see multiple emotions
bombard Adam’s face. I can’t tell what he’s thinking but it
could just be base I’m distracted.
Why isn’t he doing anything? Why isn’t he trying to help
“ADAMI” I scream louder this time
Something seems to snap in him before he grabs me
and strolls with me in his arms out the door. I don’t know

then another. He stops somewhere, but I’m in too much paini

The water flowing throughout my body helps cool the
blazing fire inside me, but I don’t think that’s the real reason,
Somehow I know that it’s Adam’s presence that’s boline
the flames. I don’t know how I know this, but I do
I think that he does too. He somehow knows that I’ll
need him like this, the only way that I could feel any reliel. How does he know this? Why do I feel like he understands
me better than anyone else does?
I had so many questions and zero answers. I wanted the
answers so severely, but more than that, I wanted this man
in front of me.

I‘m breathing hard when he puts down to his knees in front of me and continues to drag his hands down. I feel my body jump when he reaches my thight. I don’t know what

something, and I don’t know how to ask him for it.

That’s what all of this is about; it’s just him trying to
stop the fire from burnine. I dont understand what caused
my body to malfunction like this. Was it just because i
touched that golden candlei it couldn’t be, a candle
shouldn’t be able to do something like that to me.
Does this have something to do with the fact that i
couldn’t create fire? Could my body finally be able to emit
flames? I wasn’t sure what had just happened, but I knew
that I needed to get answers soon before this ever happened
to me again.
Adam gibi up from the ground and turn the shower of Het out while stay in the willin shock. I don’t know it I’ll ever be able to recover from tonight. So much happened in such the time.
I can’t even mention this to my parents because they

but I was also in his bathroom, soaking from head to toe and
aching from the inside for so much more than he’d ever been
willing to give to me
He walks over to me and hands me a towel. Our gazes leck for a few seconds, and that’s all it takes for the hiccups
to start. Adam jaw clenches, and he take a few steps back from me, almost as though he does not trust himself around
me… Or it could be that he doesn’t trust me around him.
“I’ll ask my sister to lend you some clothes.”
That was another prablem. What would I say when
Abigail asked me why I was wearing something totally
different from what I left the house with. Telling her wouldn’t
be as bad as telling my family, but I still wasn’t sure that
wanted anyone to know about the details of this incident.
Adam takes one more look at me before boling for the
door. Itake myself out of the bathroom and sit on the edge
of his bed, placing the towel under me. The picture frames
on the wall confirmed that this is in fact, his room,

I have so many questions that I want to ask him, but I’m
not sure if he will have the answers that I’m looking for
“Hey,” he says behind me. “Look at me.”
I slowly do as he asks, and linhale deeply the moment
that his face fills my vision once more. Again, I can’t think
clearly. I’m mesmerized by how his hair falls over his forehead from being wet; how is it possible that he looks this good even while being soaked from head to toe? Water is
dripping down his face, and the same is happening
throughout the rest of his body, and all I can do is trace each
droplet with my eyes; I wish that I could use my hands or

I’m about to respond to him when he hands me the
clothes. “I think that you should get dressed and leave. I
know how strict your parents are. You don’t want to stay out
too late.
Suddenly, I want to tell him the truth; I want him to
know that I risked everything to see him here tonight. I’m
silly for thinking this way, but it’s simply the way that he
makes me feel.
I blush, “they don’t know that I’m here.”
