Chapter eight: To Climb a Mountain.
"I think he understands." I turned around to see Nor behind me. "I over heard him forbid you to use the book ever." I just nodded.
We walked into the living room Margie was looking through some old tapes. "What you looking for?"
"Just the tape of Chris's birth. Ah here we are."
I ran over and snatched up the tape and trough it out of our reach.
"Now why did you go and do that for"
I was a deep blush by now. "I remember that video. There was a lot of shower shots and shots of other things that do not need to be shown."
"oh come on its tradition" Nor said tape in hand.
I was clearly defeated. "Owe" I rolled my eyes and started out of the room.
"Aren't you going to stay and watch"
"Ha, I was tortured by my very own mother to watch women give birth." I shuttered then controlling myself. "And I have no desire to watch it"
"Oh come on now it's a beautiful thing"
"Your right, but after the seventh time it becomes less pretty and more painful. Labor is VERY painful. And as for the drugs they need to be stronger."
"So you're saying you don't want anymore kids."
I looked over at Oliver leaning on the wall. "No. At the moment that I know of I won't be having kids for a long time. But I would love to have more kids. At least two and... No more than five."
"Why at least two?"
I smiled. "A boy and a girl."
I walked out of the room and into the kitchen the book was sitting on the table. It was very scary. So I decided to avoid it for now. I went into the pantry for now to grab some candles. When I came back Oliver was looking at the cover I walked up beside him. "Pretty isn't she."
He looked me in the eye. "Yeah"
"Lets get started" I walked over to the window to look outside. It was a nice night, no bugs around. I walked back over to Oliver who was watching me. "Lets go."
"Go? Go where?" he followed me out the door. I grabbed the book, and my bag filled with cloaks and food on my way out. I lead him for miles for the first ten minutes he kept asking where we were going. I led him to a mountain and started to climb.
"Jade where are you taking me"
I was only a four inches of the ground so I trued around and looked him straight in the eye for the first time since I first saw him. "Do you trust me."
"Yes"
"Then trust me not to lead you into danger now." I leaned over and kissed his forehead. "I will not lead you into danger if I can help it" I turned around and started to climb he followed after twenty minutes he started to struggle. That's when it happen the rock I was holding on to ripped itself from the side I lost my gripping and almost fell but he came up beside me and grabbed me tight till I stabilized myself. We climbed for a few more minutes till we came to a ledge. I pushed myself over the side. Before helping him up. He was really tired and drenched with sweet. I crawled around putting candles in the corners. And lighting them with my fingers. I finally had a good look at him. I couldn't not stare at him his face had turned a dark tan color shining under the sweet his shirt had been discarded into the corner his very defined eight pack and for-chest glistened as sweet tripled down. It was time I took my finger and made a circle on my color bone it began to glow.
"Jade."
Then it exploded revealing a broach with what looked to be a girl with wings like an angel.
"Jade what's going on"
"In order for me to do what is needed I must transform into my true form." I traced the creature with the same finger. As I did so it began to glow where I had touched it. Then the light expanded and swept over me changing my close to crimson red short skimpy skirt and a matching halter-top. My hair was thrown down around me and became black with crimson red streaks my eyes winded to fill the possible area leaving only a little white shown. Wings flowed from my back like a river and formed feathers soft as pillows made from Egyptian satin. Yet those same wings could be as sharp and deadly as razor sharp dagger painted with the fast's of poisons. The shined like the moon. By the end the sides of my hair were rapped up in a bun strung through with red beads. That laid intertwined in it. He was in awe over the sight of me I blushed slightly. I sat back down beside him and traced the book with my finger it opened releasing dust and angel powder everywhere.
I searched trough the book for hours until the sun began to rise. We talked over and over again about what was going on. We spent many nights doing the same thing and returning at dawn to be parents. On those night climbs we became very close. I should have been ashamed me a new widow starting to have emotions for an another man. It hasn't even been a month since my husband had died. I can't help it though I see Juan in his eyes and caring fatherly personality.
