Come in with the rain
~*~*~*~*~JPOV~*~*~*~*~
It was a lonely night. Constantly raining. Alec was out on a mission. I hated it when he went without me. I couldn't protect him. Just like I couldn't help him as we were burning at the stake. It was the 10 year anniversary of that fateful day that they 'burned the witch twins'. This was the only day of the year I aloud myself to cry, to let my guard down, to grieve for my life. And I needed Alec with me. He was the only one who understood what I was going through, and he shared those same feelings with me.
It was now 1 AM. The rain was still pouring down, perfectly fitting my mood. I opened the only window in my room, and climbed out onto the roof below me. I pulled my knees to my chest and started to shake with tearless sobs. I heard a knock on my door. Who would be bothering me now? Everyone knows to leave me alone on this day or else they feel the full wrath of my power. "Jane, can I come in?" it was Demetri. "Go away!" I replied. I guess he took that as an invitation to come in. He came and leaned against the window sill. "Jane, please come out of the rain.". "Maybe I like the rain, Demetri." I replied. "In that case, so do I." he said as he walked out onto the roof.

Poor Jane. I felt so bad for her. She had a horrible past, that nobody deserved. I walked onto the roof to sit next to her. I pulled her into a hug. She tried to fight me, pounding her tiny fists into my chest, but it was no use. Then she just gave in and started crying her heart out, so to speak. I knew all she needed was a little comfort, someone to be there for her. Even though I don't know much about her past. I pulled her into my lap. I stroked her hair, and told her it would be okay. She stopped crying after a while, and I thought it would be best to remain silent. "I'm sorry" she said. "Don't be, are you okay?" I replied.
"Demetri, you don't understand. It will never be okay. They called me a witch. I didn't mind, but then they started calling Alec a witch. It was to much to handle. We were being abused at home. Actually, we were in very poor condition, close to death already. Our powers came, and everyone was scared of us. Even our own parents. They called us 'the witch twins', and all we had was each other. We had no friends. They all wanted to kill us. One day, they came and took us and tied us to a stake. The crowd screamed 'kill the witch twins'. Alec's screams…they haunted me. Yet he used his power on me instead of himself. I asked him, begged him, to use it on himself. He didn't listen to me. I couldn't do anything." she finished. Then she started crying again. "I'm so sorry." I whispered. I kissed the top of her head and rested my chin on it. I hugged her as tight as I could, without hurting her.

The sun was coming up. Demetri picked me up and carried me back inside. We were still soaking wet from the rain, but it didn't really matter. We settled down on the couch, me still in his lap. I laid my hand on his chest, it was always a calm to Alec, so I thought it might relax him as well. It helped, because he relaxed farther into the couch. "Thank you, Demetri." I said. "Anytime, anytime…" he said. I kissed him on the cheek. I laid my head on his chest and closed my eyes, thinking about the good memories Alec and I had. A knock on the door startled me out of my 'dream'. And before I knew it, I was alone on the couch once more. "Come in!" I yelled. I knew it was my brother. But I just hope next time, Demetri will come in with the rain again.
