Chapter Four:
Authors note: forget about Marla and Luca. When they show up, its going to be brief.
Eventually John stopped crying and after regaining composure he slowly pulled away from Jedikiah and whispered "sorry".
"It's okay kiddo," Jedikiah replied. "What happened?" he asked.
"They kicked me out," John answered quietly. Jedikiah's face softened with understanding of why John had been so emotional. He knew that John thought of The Tomorrow People as his family.
"And how did you end up here?" Jedikiah asked. John looked confused as he tried to remember how he got to Stephen's house.
"I found him on my way home, he was completely drunk. He saved Astrid and he helped me when I was breaking out, so when he told me that The Tomorrow People had kicked him out and he had no where to go I brought him home and gave him the couch." Stephen met Jedikiah's eyes as he told him this, showing Jedikiah that he stood by his actions.
Jedikiah was silent for a while, his eyes focused on John. He sighed.
"Kiddo, you know your going to have to make a choice here. They've thrown you aside like trash, you don't have the option to go back there anymore. You can either come work for ULTRA again or you get the cure, become human." Jedikiah explained.
It was John's turn to be silent now. He had no clue what he was going to do.
