Leetah POV

"I shouldn't have done that."

Jack's words echoed over and over in my head. I could feel my heart beating fast, like it was trying its hardest to stay in one piece. Did he regret kissing me? Did he not like it? Did I do something wrong? The way he said it, he sounded so apologetic. Like he was sorry for leading me to believe that he had any sort of feelings for me. Jack had backed away from the tree and was now standing across the clearing I had created when I fell. He wouldn't even look at me. When he saw me looking at him, he turned his head away, setting his jaw and looking up at Pado. Something broke inside of me. I was as much of a mistake here as I had been back home. Everyone would be better off if I just disappeared. Without making a sound, I stepped off of my perch and slipped away into the dense, snow covered forest behind me. As soon as I felt tears building up in my eyes, I started to sprint away, and I never wanted to look back.

Jack POV

Oh, Moon, I'd finally done it. I finally kissed Kei'a. Or, I guess I should call her Leetah now. My Fireheart.

I didn't mean to kiss her, honestly. She was just so close to me, and I was still coming down off of the high I had gotten when I discovered that Manny had saved her. Her hair was different, longer, straight, and more silvery, her skin had more of a silvery glow to it, but her eyes were the same. Those eyes that I saw every time I closed my eyes. Those eyes that I fell in love with more than three hundred years ago. When I looked in those endless pools of silver, the rest of the world disappeared. Leetah was the only thing I wanted.

Before I knew what was happening, I was kissing her. I tried to tell myself that she doesn't remember me, that to her I was a random stranger who was assaulting her face with his mouth. I nearly froze everything with happiness when Leetah began kissing me back. I moved so that I was cupping her face, and white hot electricity shot through my veins when she wound her fingers into my hair. I lost control, turning us around so I was pressing her against a nearby tree. Just as I was finding it a little difficult to continually lean down to kiss her, Leetah had balanced herself on a root and wound her arms all the way around my neck. Moon and stars, I tried to stop. I couldn't help myself, I kept kissing her until I remembered my initial thought. Leetah doesn't remember me. I was sexually assaulting her, even if she didn't know it. Putting my hands on Leetah's waist, I finally broke our kiss. I closed my eyes, leaning my forehead on hers, feeling like it was so hot it could melt me at any moment. Still catching my breath, I loosened myself from Leetah's grip, not wanting her to let go of me yet.

"I shouldn't have done that," I apologized. Leetah's arms dropped from my shoulders and the look on her face broke my heart. I was about to explain why, that she didn't actually know me, when Manny trespassed into my mind.

"No," he said, "you shouldn't have. Let me tell you this, boy. My daughter is only there to find her center. She does not wish to mingle with spirits like you. She does not wish to have a, what do you call it, fling? with you. She is there so that she may return home." I had turned away from Leetah in shame and embarrassment, and when I saw her sad, broken face out of the corner of my eye, I snapped. Setting my jaw, I turned to look fully at the Moon.

"You're wrong. Maybe she doesn't want to mingle with spirits like me, but it is you who don't want her to have a relationship with me. It's you that wants me to keep my distance from her. I bet she doesn't even want to go back home to you, if you control her like this." The Man in the Moon flashed a bright, angry light at me, but said no more. I turned back around to explain myself to Leetah, but she wasn't there.

My Fireheart was gone.

Leetah POV

I didn't know where I was, or where I was going, but I knew that I didn't want to stop running. Tears blurred my vision and my dress kept getting caught on twigs and bushes. Wiping at my eyes with one hand, I gathered up my long silver dress with my other, inspecting it for any snags or tears. I also took a moment to attempt to determine where I was. Looking up, I felt panic set in the pit of my stomach. The sky was empty, devoid of any light. Not even Mati, the north star, was shining. I couldn't help but wonder if it was something that I did, if my kissing Jack made Pado so angry as to abandon me.

I could feel the tears coming again. I didn't want to run, I didn't want to try to find Jack. All I wanted to do was curl up and disappear. That was the only way everyone would be happy. I closed my eyes, thinking back on all the good times I'd had with Pado, him teaching me how to properly grant wishes, both of us staying up late into the morning to see what the humans did when they weren't sleeping. Then, my mind was filled with the memory of Jack and I's kiss. I could feel my heart breaking. Maybe I really was a mistake. In a matter of hours, I had fucked everything up to the point that I didn't even want to try to fix it.

I sat down, the snow cooling my hot, sweaty skin. It felt like a desert down here, and it wasn't even summer. Sprawling out so that I was laying on my back in the snow, I looked into the dark, empty sky. My family wasn't there for me. Jack wasn't there for me. I had no one.

"Well, well," a mocking voice came from behind me, "what do we have here?"

Another sucky attempt at a cliffhanger! I feel like my Jack POVs don't sound like things that guys would actually say, you know? I've never really tried writing from a guy's perspective and it's actually really hard.

Thanks again to CrystalQueen for her reviews, you rock, girl!
