Chapter 7
"Forgive Me for Loving You"
I think I've finally gained some control. I feel happy for once, I just hope it lasts. A few days have pasted since my attack last week. Alex and I are starting to learn how to combine our powers, making us stronger together then apart. He's starting to be less of a jerk as well, but of course, old habits can die hard. We always have training, but Alex and I get special training after our practice with the others. So in the end we have to work harder.
"Sometimes I don't like the feeling of you in my head." I actually said that to Alex.
"Aw, afraid I'll see your dirty thoughts?" he smirked. I elbowed him in the chest which was hard enough that he hunched over.
"In your dreams pretty boy."
"Alright you two, calm yourselves. You can go now, we're done." said Charles. Alex and I left and went to our room.
"We should go out tonight. As a date."
"Did you just ask me out?" I asked.
"Yes."
"Ok, I'll go out with you, but are you mad! I cant really go out in public right now because I think I'm being stocked."
"Don't be a baby, if we're together we should be fine. We could just go to a very public place."
"Notice how you said we should be fine. My father wont care if we're in public, he'll shoot the place down." Alex took a step closer to me which made me blush a little.
"I know your scared, but you and I have learned to control ourselves better. You've lived in the streets for two years, you know how to live on the wild side."
"Alright, I'll go out with you tonight" Why do I feel like I'm going to regret this? He leaned in and gave me a kiss and smiled.
"Sweet, how about we leave at six?"
"I don't care when we leave, but wont Charles and Erik kill us if we leave? Especially because I'm being hunted."
"I'll try to convince them, if not we could always sneak out."
"You are a bad influence."
"Thank you." he smiled and walked out. I had to talk to Raven. She was in her room. I almost wanted to knock the door down.
"Whoa dear, calm yourself. What's up?" I walked into her room and sat on the bed.
"Alex just asked me out and I said yes."
"Yes! It's about time, you two are like totally in love. You've already had your first kiss, and you share a room with him." she was so giddy.
"He also wants to go out, like out and about."
"Like out in public? Is that even slightly safe?" she asked.
"I don't know. I really want to go out with him tonight, but I don't want to risk putting him in harms way."
"In my opinion, you two should be fine. You are stronger when your with him. Do you want me to talk to Charles and Erik to let you two leave?" she asked.
"Kind of."
"Alright." both Raven and Alex went to go talk to Charles and Erik to let us go out. Weirdly enough they actually aloud it. Raven made me start getting ready at four for my date at six. She is totally living out a dating dream through me. For the first time, I was actually wearing makeup. My hair was curled. I put on a short black dress that went just below my knees and I also put on long leather boots. I came downstairs with Raven and saw Alex waiting for me. His mouth dropped.
"Wow, you look, beautiful." He leaned in and kissed my cheek.
"Thanks, you do clean up nicely."
"Alright you two, be careful, and if you see anything suspicious, you know what to do." Charles walked in with Erik..
"And kick some ass if need be." suggested Erik. Alex and I did crack a laugh at that but Charles just kind of glared at him. Alex and I left in the car. We were going to a dance club that actually allows teens in. Unlike Alex, I'm still seventeen, so not a lot of clubs will let me in. He's actually a better dancer then you would think. He did most of the dancing. He did carry me a lot. He think he was making fun of me for being so much shorter then him. I did like it though when he would pick me up and twirl me.
"Having fun?" he asked.
"Actually I am."
"I can see it in your eyes that you still think something bad is going to happen"
"I just don't want you to get hurt. I don't know what I would do with myself if I lost you." I soon felt like someone was watching me. I turned to the door and saw some strange men by it.
"Alex, I'm being watched." He looked up and held me closer to him. I could feel that he was afraid. We started to back up a little more.
"Well well, the love birds out in public." we shot around and saw Zeke.
""We were told not to take you in before, but now it's time, and your father wants us to try something. He knows about the empathy you both have, feeling each others pain." All of the sudden I felt this pain serge up my back side. I felt cold. But it wasn't me that got hurt. Alex collapsed on the ground beside me. I looked down at him. They shot him in the side. I started to cry hysterically. I felt like I couldn't breathe. I fell down beside him. He was shaking erratically. I pulled him into my lap.
"Alex I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry." I rocked back in forth. I kept kissing his head.
"Unless you want us to shoot him again, but in a more vital spot, it would be wise if you came with us." snapped Zeke. I could see the people around the club frozen with fear. I looked down at Alex. He shook his head for me not to go. Tears filled his eyes.
"Please Katie." he choked out the words. I cried as I kissed his sweet lips. This might be the last time I feel that serge again. I left him apart of my power.
"Forgive me" I laid him down.
""Katie please!" I walked for the door with Zeke. I could hear the ambulance coming in the background. I looked back at Alex who never stopped watching me. He kept trying to get up.
"I love you." I whispered. I could tell he still heard me, and I left.
