Chapter 12

"They were distracted that easily?" Damon asked.

"Yeah, it was almost as easy as distracting you," she teased.

"Ah, but you see I like being distracted by you."

She gave him a weak smile and sat up. "What's the matter?" he asked.

"It's just…everything's happening so fast and I don't know what to think or do. I feel like funning, but I don't know where to run to."

"Hmm…I have an idea," he said mischievously.

"What?" she asked.

"We should go somewhere for the next week. We'll be back for next term, promise," he pleaded.

"Where would we go?" she asked doubtfully.

"Anywhere, anywhere you want to go," he said, his voice full of enthusiasm.

"That sounds great, but you now we can't," she stated sadly.

"I know, but it was worth a try. Do you want me to take you home?"

"Damon, if I'm with you, I am home," she said, laying her head against his shoulder.

"I know, it's the same for me." He kissed her forehead. "C'mon, let's get you home."

Kia stood outside the door to the Potters'. She was unsure if she should go in or not. It wasn't late, but it was dark and she had been gone for a quite a few hours. She felt like she had done something wrong, well she had, but it was…like she had some forbidding sense. She took a deep breath and went inside.
