I don't own Secret Circle. This is my first fanfic so try not to be too judgemental. This take place after Black John's death. Enjoy!

Chapter 1

Cassie's POV

Everything around me was dark. I felt like I was sinking into a never-ending darkness. What's going on? Where am I? I couldn't breathe. All that darkness was suffocating me.

And suddenly, everything changed. I was on the beach. And a guy was with me. The only thing I could clearly see in him was his eyes. They were blue. But they weren't like Adam's. Adam's eyes were always kind and reminded me of the ocean whereas these eyes were icy blue and like they were absorbing everything they see.

Then I felt like I was burning. Flames covered me. I screamed.

...

Adam's POV

I woke up hearing Cassie screaming. She was lying next to me and my hands were around her.

"Cassie, wake up." I said while I was shaking her gently.

Cassie opened her eyes and gasped. "Oh god, Adam." She said and buried her face in his shoulder shaking.

"Cassie, it's all okay. It was just a dream." I told her and gave her a light kiss in her forehead. She stopped shaking and relaxed a little.

"I keep having this dream about darkness I told you the other day" she said in low voice. "But tonight it had a new end." She paused. "I burst into flames."

I didn't talk for several moments. I was thinking about these dreams and I didn't really like them. Finally, I said "Cassie, I don't think they mean something. Maybe you have them because of the latest events" I didn't need to mention which events. It was just two weeks since we defeated Black John and we got together. A lot had changed.

Cassie looked like she was believing me. "I know I just... I just don't know."

"Hey, do you know what will make you feel better?" I said giving her a tender kiss.

"Adam..." She said playfully.

"What? I was talking about a coffee and a delicious cupcake. Where did your little dirty mind go?" I said making her blush slightly.

...

Cassie's POV

After we stopped to a coffee shop, we headed to school. School. I sighed. I had to talk Diana. We hadn't actually talk since Black John's death. I didn't want to. I didn't know how to face her. I was so afraid that we were going to fight and I didn't want that, either. Another person I was afraid to meet was Nick. I broke his heart and seriously why he shouldn't be angry with me? He probably doesn't want to talk to me again.

Adam pulled the car on the school's garage and we headed to the gate. There were all the members of the circle. "Hey, guys." Adam said.

"Good morning" said Diana "I was thinking of holding a meeting tonight on my house to talk about some things and relax a little. What do you say, Cassie?"

"That would be a very good idea." I simply replied and there nods from all the members of the club.

"Ok then." Suzan said "So let's talk for another topic. Did you see the new guy? He's totally hot." All the boys rolled their eyes. Faye looked really interested. Poor guy I thought. "Yeah, roll your eyes all you want. He is tall and he has dark hair with blue eyes that maybe are even better than Adam's. No offence, Adam. I am stating the facts"

"None taken." Adam said and chuckled. The bell rang and all went to their classes. "See you later." said Adam and gave me a kiss.

I got to my class and I sat at an empty seat. I opened my literature book when I heard a gentle voice "Is this seat taken?".

I lifted my eyes from my book to the person who told. It was a tall guy with dark hair. The new guy Suzan was talking about earlier I thought. I was ready to answer him when I looked into his eyes. His icy blue eyes. The same eyes I had dreamed last night.
