Bound By Knots: Chapter 10

RPOV

Kestrel ran up the stairs and slammed her door. What just happened?

Whatever upset her had her running off, which was NOT normal. Kestrel, no matter what it was, always stood her ground.

I got off my seat from the couch and went to the front door. Outside Mark and Jade were hugging. I smiled, then I noticed a hansom boy with a dumb struck look on his face.

He was just staring at the spot where I was, but not like he was staring at me, more like past me. He lost the trance face and turned slamming his car door and kicking the car tire.

Oh crap.

They were soulmates. I just knew, just like the time I knew Ash and Mary-Lynnette where soul mates.

Kestrel found her soulmate, oh boy.

Mark and Jade pulled away, holding hands and looking into each others eyes. They walked up to the door.

Then Mark turned around, "Hey Ben, come on in, hey you okay?"

Ben put one hand in his pocket and the other threw his hair. After a minute he smiled, "Yeah I'm good."

He walked up to where we all were, he stuck his hand out to Jade. "So you must be Jade, nice to meet you."

She smiled and took his hand, "Nice to meet you too!"

Then he turned to me, "And you are?" He said stick out his hand.

"Rowan, good to meet you Ben." I said shaking it, wow he was really friendly.

"Same." He said smiling.

"Well lets all go in." I stepped out from the opened the door for them all to come through.

I watched as Ash took note of every move Mark made coming into the house. Mark and him locked glazes for a moment before Mark tore his eyes away and looked at Mary-Lynnette who was lying above Ash on the couch.

"Can I talk to Mary-Lynnette?" I asked looking at Mare, she looked sick, towel on her forehead, overly red cheeks, blanket tucked in around her, and she just looked tired.

"Sure." Ash said, with no emotion.

"Alone." I said through gritted teeth. Locking eyes with Ash again.

Jade, Rowan and Ben left. Ash remained where he was still giving me a cold stare.

Then he slowly stood up from the floor. He turned around to kiss Mare on the forehead and then disappeared after he gave me look.

"You look sick, what happened?"

"Morning sickness." She said quietly.

"Oh."

I sat down by her legs on the couch.

"Mark what are you doing here."

"I came to say sorry."

Die good looking boy with brown hair and brown eyes, die.

NO! Don't die that would break my heart.

Oh my freaking gosh what is going on with me!

We all went out of the living room and into the dinning room. After a while Ash came in to.

It was really awkward. So I decided to go out to the back porch.

"Hey Rowan you mind if I check out the backyard?"

"No not at all." She said warmly. I smiled I liked her.

"Cool." I stepped out and stretched my arms. I walked down the porch looking out to the beautiful yard.

Then a body landed in front of me, my heart rate picked up.

"Oh sh**t!" I jumped over the railing and knelt down. My heart went double time, it was her.

My mind finally drove me over the top. I was going to leave the house and go hunting.

I opened my window and jumped out, everyone was inside they wouldn't see me. Soon my feet were on the ground so I decided to lie down all together in the cool grass.

"Oh sh**t!" My heart rate picked up, it was him, I never heard him talk before but it gave me a tingly feeling, it had to be him. I kept my eyes closed, but it sounded like he jumped over the porch railing.

Suddenly he was close, right over me. He touched my face, an electric shock raced up my cheek down my face, through my throat and my heart had a quick burning feeling.

I opened my eyes and gasped. He was leaning over me with a wide eyed expression, damn he felt it too.

I slapped his hand away and sat up. The slap just caused more shocks.

"What… How..?" He stuttered. "Okay, how did you just fall off the porch roof? And then, I, I though you were dead, and you just sat up like nothing happened! And the sparks! Not that they don't feel amazing but, well I don't even know your name and I think I love you!"

I was speechless, did he just say he loved me? No, he just said he thought he loved me. What did it matter? We only just met.

No, it meant the world.

I looked up, he was still looking at me, with big brown eyes that were pleading for answers.

Suddenly we were face to face, and getting closer.
