I'll never forget the day when I left them… him. I had been away from my dad for months, because they thought I was crazy. But… I wasn't… I was special… I was different… but not crazy. I had been forced to go to the Lyle House that was run by the Edison group… a organization that wanted to help for better supernatural living… but they made it worse. I had been on the run with my Aunt Lauren, Simon, Mr. Bae, Tori, Liz (sorta), and Derek… Trying to take down the Edison Group, and we had succeeded.
"Oh, bye Chloe!" Tori squeezed me tightly. "This won't be the end! I'll keep in touch and we can hang out sometimes!"
"Always Tor. I'll text you every day!" I walked over to Simon. Simon was like a big brother, watched out for me, kept me happy and out of trouble, he treated me like a real person, they all did, but Simon was always like that, even when we were gunna die, he would be like 'as soon as we make it out of here I am so gunna kick your ass at monopoly.' He messed up my hair and gave me a hug. "I'm going to miss ya Chlo."
"aw, Simon."
"don't worry I'll see you around." He gave me a huge Simon smile and let me go. I walked over to Derek who propped himself against the car, strayed away from the group. "Oh Scarecrow, I'm going to miss you most of all." I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling in for a hug. I looked into his dark, emerald green eyes that took my breath away every time I saw them. He put his arms around my waist, slightly lifting me up. "Chloe, I love you." I felt the hot tears trickling down my cheeks. I hugged him tight, as tight as I possibly could, crying. He held me in his arms, caressing me, consoling my tears. I looked back into his eyes, "I love you too, Derek." I felt our lips brush together. "I will always love you." He gave a small smirk. "Goodbye Chloe." He gave me a small kiss and then climbed into the car where everyone had already got in. I looked at him, but… he wouldn't look back. I got a quick glimpse of his eyes for the last time and then the car had pulled out of the driveway. My dad came from behind me and hugged me so tight I couldn't breathe. 'Welcome back kiddo."
And that was the last time I saw Derek Souza.
