Lillth started walking and looking at Rosa's mum's flowers.
They were always gorgeous. She heard a noise to the left of her. She
started to walk towards it holding her breath. What she found was James.
Looking intently at a flower as it moved. But the flower wasn't just moving
it was growing! Lillth couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"What are you doing?!" Lillth asked shocked. "It's growing!"
"Lillth! Were you spying on me!?" James asked startled. "What did you see?!"
"The flower.it was moving! Growing!" She then turned towards James with a shocked look. "You made it grow didn't you?!"
"You have to promise not to tell anyone Lillth! I'm not doing anything wrong!!"
"But how? What! Does this mean you're a ... Mutant"
"Yes I am and if you meant what you said before you won't tell anyone"
"Of cause I won't James it's just....does anyone else know? Rosa? Your mum and dad?"
"No, no one knows. Well you do now."
"Wow" It was all Lillth could say. Rosa came out on the balcony but when she saw James and Lillth talking she smiled and went back inside.
"How long have you been a mutant?" Lillth asked still surprised.
"Just before I went to the secret service training. I always did love the outdoors. One day I wanted the flowers to grow before I left and well they did." He answered a bit tired. "Look you have to promise not to tell anyone. Please Lillth promise?" He pleaded with her.
"I promise. I still think you should at least tell your parents. Your 24 years old it's not like they can lock you in your room. And you know they love you to much to tell anyone themselves."
"Yeah you're right, but still I'm afraid to tell them"
"Were you ever gonna tell anyone?"
"Probably not I guess. I'm glad you found out though it makes it a bit better. I'm thinking of leaving the secret service. Being a mutant and all. I mean what if they find out? They'd probably say I was trying to kill the president."
"I see what you mean. I'll help you as much as I can James. If you want to ever talk. You know I practically live here."
"Yeah. Thanks Lillth. I'm going to go to bed, growing flowers makes me a bit tired. Good night"
"Good night."
After James left, Lillth started to wonder how she could help him. She thought the best thing she could do was convince him to tell his family. She knew they would help him, they loved him a lot. But in the end it was up to him. She thought she could tell them, but then James might hate her forever. She didn't want to take that risk. She figured she'd tell him her secret to.
With that thought she went upstairs and found Rosa in her bed asleep. Lillth changed into a night shirt and got in bed. Her last thought was of James
