It was the next day, meaning the weekend had finally started. Everything was going good for Kegan now. She had her friends back, her brother back, and her boyfriend back, what more could she want. She was looking through her closet when she heard a soft tap on the door. "Come in!" she yelled. In walked Pogue and Caleb. "What are you guys doing?" she asked still rummaging through her clothes.
"Are you going to Nicky's tonight?" Caleb asked.
"Yeah. Are you guys?" she asked.
"Yeah! Hey, listen when you said that someone was after you did you actually see them?"
Kegan turned around to face her brother. "No I didn't. I just heard noises and someone calling my name."
"You said someone breathed on you?" Pogue asked.
"Yeah, like they were standing right behind me. I didn't see anyone though." She continued to look at them waiting for something. "What's this about?" she finally asked.
"We think Reid might have had something to do with it." Caleb replied.
"Reid?" She couldn't help but laugh.
"Yeah…"
"Reid wouldn't scare me like that, especially knowing that I was pissed at him to begin with."
"He uses a lot Keg."
"Caleb, I know that you don't like him very much sometimes, but he is my boyfriend and I know he cares about me a lot. He wouldn't do that."
"We are just trying to protect you." Pogue chimed in.
"From my own boyfriend? Your supposed best friend?"
"Yes, he is getting addicted to it. It's taking him over. Do you not see it?" Caleb responded.
"Listen, I love you guys. You are my best friends, but I don't believe it." She went back to looking through her clothes.
Caleb threw his hands up in the air before sighing loudly. "Don't go tonight to Nicky's." he finally replied.
"What?" she turned around again. "You are beginning to sound like my father again."
"Its just too dangerous."
"I will be with you guys. You are the ones with this 'power', I think I will be well protected."
"Kegan…" Pogue started.
"Stay out of this!" Kegan yelled pointing her finger at him. "Caleb, I am going. I just had a week from hell alright. I want to go and have fun with you guys tonight. Is that so much to ask!"
"No." Caleb whispered.
"Good! Now I am going to get ready and I am going to meet Reid. Do you guys have anything else to say to me?"
"No." Pogue and Caleb replied in unison.
"Good! Now please leave so I can get ready." She heard Caleb sigh as she turned around to her closet. She smiled to herself before letting her mind drift to what they said about Reid. Maybe she could save him. Maybe she could stop him from killing himself. She shook her head before going back to picking her clothes out.
Reid, Tyler, and Kegan arrived at Nicky's around 9:30 that Saturday night. Kegan smiled at everyone who passed by. Reid grabbed her hand and pulled her close to him, wrapping his arm around her waist. "You want to get a table?" Reid asked.
"Yeah sure." Kegan responded. "Get me a coke?"
"Sure." Reid smiled at her before letting her go. He winked at her with his gorgeous blue eyes. He watched as Kegan found a table before going to the bar. Kegan was looking around until she felt a pair of hands cover her eyes. She laughed. "Chase!" she yelled.
"How did you know?" he asked appearing in front of her.
"Just a guess."
"How's the leg?"
"It hurts, but I'll live. Reid came and kept me company last night."
"You guys back together?" He sounded disappointed.
"Yeah." She smiled at him.
"That's so sweet, the whole clan back together again."
"Shut up!" she replied hitting his arm, laughing. Reid looked over at them just as she began to laugh. He glared. Tyler noticed this.
"Well he just doesn't know what he is getting himself in to." Tyler replied.
"No he doesn't." Reid spat. "Why don't we go show him."
Tyler smiled until Aaron walked up. "Hey boys." Aaron replied.
"Go away Aaron." Reid retorted.
"How about I go away with your money Garwin." Aaron challenged.
"What are you talking about Abbot?" Tyler asked.
"Reid, knows what I am talking about."
"Is that a challenge?" Reid asked.
"Hell yeah it is."
"Fine, but don't go crying back to mama when you get your ass kicked." Reid walked over to Kegan with her coke in hand. She looked up at him and saw a pissed look on his face.
"You alright?" she asked.
"Yeah its just Aaron. I am going to go play some pool. You alright?"
"Yeah, I'll just wait for the others. Go ahead." She smiled at him, causing him to smile.
"Alright, I am going to go show this ass how to play." Reid responded. Kegan glanced around her boyfriend and saw Aaron staring her way. He smirked at her and waved. She shook her head.
"Have fun with that one." She replied. Reid rolled his eyes before going back over to Aaron and Tyler.
"What's that about?" Chase asked.
"Aaron?" Kegan asked. "He's just a jerk that doesn't know when to give up. He's been trying to get with me for a year now and just wont get it through his head that I am with Reid. He just hasn't grown up yet."
Chase nodded his head. "I am going to go get something to eat, do you want anything?" he asked getting out of his seat.
"Naw that's ok, but thanks." She smiled at him before turning her head to where Reid was. He looked over at her and smiled. She smiled back until she felt someone wrap their arms around her shoulder.
"When did you get here?"
"KATE!" Kegan yelled wrapping her arms around her friend. "We just got here a couple of minutes ago."
"Looks like Reid doesn't waste anytime." Kate replied noticing Reid playing pool.
"Well Aaron just doesn't know when to quit."
"True." Kate smiled, causing Kegan to laugh. "How's the leg?"
"Its good. Hurts a little, but its better."
"Where's Pogue and Caleb?"
"I don't know. I thought they would be here by now." Kegan said. "Where's Sarah?"
"Getting drinks."
"Oh, Chase is here."
"Really?" Kate had a smile on her face. Kegan noticed, but couldn't say anything. Pogue walked up and wrapped his arms around her neck. Caleb was right behind him. He looked at Kegan, but didn't say anything. Chase came back with drinks in his hand, with Sarah at his side. Caleb smiled, while Pogue glared at Chase.
"Hey you guys!" Chase replied.
"Hey, Chase right?" Caleb asked shaking his hand.
"Yeah." Chase replied with a smile.
"Hey Reid and Tyler are here." Pogue replied to Caleb. Caleb looked in the direction Pogue was pointing and saw Reid and Tyler playing pool. "I am going to go say hi." He looked at Chase one last time before shoving his shoulder into him to move him. Chase threw his hands up in the air and back away with a smile on his face.
"I am going to go use the bathroom." Kegan replied getting off the chair. She walked past Pogue who was at the bar, and Tyler and Reid who were playing pool. Reid smiled at her grabbing her hand and squeezing it. Pogue was trying to get some food, but the bartender just ignored him. He rolled his eyes.
"Hey fellows." Pogue responded walking over to them moments later.
"Whooo look at that." Tyler responded looking at the girl at the bar. By this time Kegan was coming back. She saw that the boys were all staring in the same direction. "Blue. Cotton." Tyler replied slapping down a twenty dollar bill. The boys stared at him before smiling.
"Pink lace." Reid yelled slapping down a twenty.
"Boys, that girl hasn't worn panties since she was twelve." Pogue replied slapping down a twenty as well.
"I'm with Pogue on this one!" Kegan replied causing the boys to turn around. She laid a twenty on the table and smirked at Reid. He couldn't help but smile.
"Sorry sweetheart, but you just lost twenty dollars." Tyler responded. She just smirked at him. She watched as Reid's eyes went black, then a spark shot causing a gust of wind to cause the girls skirt to come flying up revealing nothing. She heard Pogue begin to laugh. She just smiled at Reid, before turning to Tyler.
"Sorry sweetheart, but it looks like you just lost twenty dollars."
Pogue held his hand in the air for her to high-five it. "How did you know that?" Tyler asked.
"Did you not see her face?" Kegan asked. "That's Michelle, my roommate." Kegan replied with a smile.
"That's cheating, you knew who she was." Tyler pouted.
"Give it up man, you lost." Pogue replied. He handed forty dollars to Kegan, before giving the rest to the bartender. "Keep the change." The bartender nodded his head. "That was good." He was still smiling at Kegan as they walked back to the table. Pogue noticed that Chase and Caleb were playing foosball. He turned his nose up and walked over to them. "Do you mind if I play?" he asked. Chase smirked and walked away. "Sure." He backed away. Kegan took a seat by a very angry Kate.
"What's wrong with you?" Kegan asked
"We came to hang out together and now they are all gone playing games." Kate whined. Sarah began to laugh.
"We can fix that." Sarah smiled as she walked past Caleb who just stared at her. She grabbed a quarter first and walked over to the jukebox. "What is she doing?" Kate asked. Suddenly 'I love Rock and Roll' came on.
"Ohhhh!" Kegan smiled. She watched as Sarah walked over to Caleb and grabbed his hand.
"Where are we going?" Caleb asked smiling. Sarah brought him to the dance floor and began dancing all up on him. Kegan turned away and saw Chase staring at her.
"What?" she asked.
"Would you like to dance with me?" he held out his hand to her.
She smiled at him. "No that's ok. I am just going to wait on Reid to get done with his game."
"Come on, it's better than sitting here all alone." Chase begged.
She smiled again and clapped her hand in his. "Chase, you're the best, but I cant." She pulled away.
"Ouch!" Chase put his hand to his heart. He liked her. He liked her a lot. He had to find some way to get her to be with him. He shook his head to knock out the thoughts.
"What's wrong with you?" Kegan heard Pogue ask.
"Nothing." Kate replied.
"There's something. You wouldn't be sitting here looking all pissed."
"Pogue, I said that I am fine. Can you just drop it?"
"Fine!" Pogue threw his hands in the air. Just then he heard a breaking noise and his eyes shot to where Reid was. Kegan's eyes followed. She saw that Reid had his hands on Aaron.
"Reid!" she yelled. Caleb heard her yell and turned towards the commotion. He let go of Sarah and gave an apologetic smile, but walking over to Reid. Pogue and Kegan followed.
"Can I do something?" Chase asked.
"You can stay here." Pogue spat. Kegan looked up at him.
"Pogue!" she yelled. He looked at her before turning his head. She just rolled her eyes. She watched as Caleb tried the break the fighting up. Pogue saw that Nicky was on his way over. He grabbed Aaron and moved the fight outside.
"What is going on here?" Caleb asked.
Reid had a smirk on his face. "He said I couldn't make a shot and I did and now he's bitching about it."
"You cheated!" Aaron spat.
"Oh sure." Reid was still smiling. Kegan made her way outside.
"Go inside!" Caleb yelled.
"Caleb!" Kegan yelled back.
"I said go!" he pointed to the door. She groaned before slinging the door open.
"What you got your boys to have your back now Garwin? Cant handle the job your own damn self?" Aaron knew that would piss Reid off.
"Why don't you shut the hell up Aaron?" Pogue yelled.
"Am I going to have to call the cops? You boys better leave!" Nicky had the opened the door. Aaron smiled before shoving Caleb aside with his shoulder walking past him,
"I'll see you later!" Aaron yelled pointing at Reid.
"Count on it!" Reid yelled back. He turned to Caleb who was glaring at him. "What?" he asked.
"Reid what did you do?" Caleb asked.
"Nothing."
"Reid, I know what you are doing." Caleb replied.
"Oh do you? You are always down my back about something Caleb. Why don't you just give it up? I am fine, I will handle Aaron on my own."
"You know damn well that's not what I am talking about."
"Just get out of my way." Reid tried to push past him, but Caleb didn't move.
"What do you want to do Caleb?" Reid asked backing away. Suddenly his eyes went black. "You want to play that game?" Caleb grabbed hold on Reid,
"Reid, stop!"
Reid grabbed hold of Caleb's arm and began to squeeze. Caleb tensed up and began to sweat. "Reid, let him go! What are you doing?" Pogue asked getting in between.
"You know that I am stronger that you Reid." Caleb stated.
"You think so?" Reid asked before forming a ball of force in his hands.
"Reid!" Pogue yelled, suddenly Caleb's eyes went black.
"Alright let's have it." Caleb suggested. Reid threw the ball of energy at Caleb only to have Caleb catch it. Just then Kegan threw open the door, only to see Caleb throw Reid back into the wine boxes.
"Are you crazy!" she yelled running. Reid went to go after Caleb, with his eyes still black. Pogue grabbed Caleb and held him back, while Tyler grabbed Reid.
"You guys cant fight like this! You are like brothers!" Tyler yelled.
"Why do you always do that huh? You think you are better than all of us because you are going to ascend first! That's bullshit!" Reid yelled.
"You are killing yourself Reid. Can you not see it?" Caleb yelled back only trying to get to Reid to knock him out. "You are so angry all the time. Your temper flares as just the slightest thing. Its taking over you and you don't know it."
"It's my life Caleb. Mine!" he yelled.
"Come on lets just go." Tyler replied. Reid looked up at Kegan who didn't know what to do, but just stand there. His eyes were back to normal. She turned around and ran up the stairs into the bar.
"Kegan!" he yelled after her but it was too late. "Nice going asshole!" he retorted to Caleb. Tyler still had him by the shoulder hoping he wouldn't try anything.
"Can we leave?" Sarah asked coming outside. Caleb looked up at him.
"Sure." He replied nodding his head. "Come on lets go." He turned to Pogue. Pogue nodded his head.
"Is everything alright?" Sarah asked holding the door open.
"Yeah, just a little problem. Its nothing."
"Will you stop!" Reid yelled as Kegan quickened her pace across the street. "You are going to get yourself killed."
"Killed? You want to talk about getting killed Reid. You!" she yelled. "You are going to get killed if you don't stop."
"Will you stop?" he asked annoyed. "You are sounding like your brother."
She glared at him. "Good!" she spat. She turned back around and ran across the street to Reid's Hummer. Reid stormed to the drivers said as he got in he turned to the passenger side to say something to Kegan, but instead Tyler was sitting there. Kegan slammed the door to the backseat. Reid turned around. "What the hell are you doing?"
"Waiting on you to take me home." She replied. He groaned before starting the car. He turned around and glared at her before pressing the gas. They went flying out of the parking lot causing Kegan to tense up just a little. "Slow down!" she yelled. All the sudden Reid came to a dead stop in the middle of the road, causing Kegan to fly forward. "What the hell is your problem?" she asked.
"You are!" he yelled.
"I'm not the one who got his ass thrown up against wine boxes for being a dumbass!"
"I'm a dumbass?"
"YES!" she yelled. "Do you not see it Reid? Do you not see that every time you use your powers, you get angrier and angrier. And it scares me more than anything that one day I am going to wake up and you aren't going to be here anymore." She could hear her voice cracking. 'No, don't give in just yet.' She thought to herself. "You wont stop."
"I am not doing anything to myself. I don't see why you guys wont stop worrying about me."
"Because we care about you Reid. Obviously you don't see that."
"If you care about me then you would leave me alone."
"Fine!" she yelled. "We aren't too far from school, ill walk back." She opened the door and slammed it shut.
"Nice going!" Tyler spat.
"Shut the hell up!" Reid yelled before opening his door. He went running after Kegan who was half way across the street. "Is this how its going to be huh? Every time I use my power you are going to be down my throat. I knew we should have never told you."
"You're right Reid. You should have just lied to me about it the whole time. Our relationship should be based on trust, you obviously could give a shit about that." She wiped her face from the tears that were streaming down. She didn't want him to see that he made her cry, but she couldn't help it.
"I'm just tired of Caleb always down my throat. He thinks he is my father or something."
"I'm not Caleb, Reid." She pointed her finger into her chest. "I am your girlfriend. I have a right to make sure that you are ok. I have a right to know about you Reid."
"Let's go back to the car. Its cold, and its going to rain. Plus you don't need to be out by yourself."
"I'll be fine." She retorted. "Just go."
"I'm not leaving without you."
"Then I guess you are going to be here for a while, because I am going back to school without you." She turned around and began walking into the woods. Reid stood there hoping she would come back. Once she was out of sight he went back to his car.
"What are you doing?" Tyler asked.
"What do you mean?"
"You cant let her go like that. Caleb would kill you."
"Caleb can kiss my ass." Reid started the car and began driving again.
"Reid, maybe she's right."
"What are you talking about?"
"Maybe she is just trying to protect you from hurting yourself."
"I'm not hurting myself."
"Yes you are. We can all see it."
"Do you want to walk home?" he asked. Tyler immediately shut up and looked out his window. Reid looked over at him before pressing harder on the gas.
Kegan watched as Reid sped away. She thought maybe he would at least come after her, but he didn't. She knew she pissed him off, but it would kill her if she ever lost him. She wiped her face and began walking again. She let her mind wonder for a little bit, until her cell began to ring. She opened it up and saw that it was Reid. She looked down and went to answer it, but decided not to. She closed the phone and stuck it back in her pocket. She put her hands in her pocket and quickened her pace. She could see the school now. She smiled, she felt like she had been walking forever. She turned around looked behind her. No one was there. She sighed, no one was messing with her tonight. Good. She wasn't in the mood to be messed with. As she turned around she came face to face with Reid. She yelled as she jumped back. "What the hell are you doing?" she asked. "Trying to kill me?"
"Sorry, I was looking for you." He looked at her with piercing green eyes, she looked at his eyes for a moment, before talking.
"Reid, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
"Look, I just want to go to bed ok. We will talk about this in the morning." She tried walking past him.
"I want to talk about it now." He grabbed her arm and pulled her back. She pulled away.
"Stop." She responded holding her arm. "You're hurting me."
"Why don't you just talk to me huh? You are always trying to avoid me."
"Reid, what are you talking about? I always talk to you about things."
"No, you go to your brother and let him know what I have been doing. Then he gets on my ass and I have to deal with him for the week."
"Reid, you are being crazy right now."
"Crazy!" he yelled hitting the tree. "I'll show you crazy!" His green eyes soon went black. He grabbed her by her throat and threw her up against the tree.
"REID!" she screamed. She tried fighting him but it was no use. She dug her nails into his arms. "Stop, please." She begged. She no longer was under her control, her tears began to flow freely. It all happened so fast that Kegan didn't have time to respond. She felt herself being thrown against a tree. "Help!" she tried to yell.
"No one can hear you sweetheart." He whispered in her ear.
"What did I do?" she sobbed.
"Nothing, I guess it just because you're a Danvers." He spat. "I want you all to myself, but no you have to go after everyone else."
"What are you talking about? I love you Reid."
"Don't!" he yelled. "Don't do that!"
She began to sob. "I cant breathe." She responded. "Please let me go." Reid slowly let her go. He watched as she fell to the ground, sobbing. It suddenly came a down pour on then. He looked around, before taking off into the woods. Kegan sat there for a moment, before grabbing the tree to help her up. She looked into the woods. Reid was gone. She covered her mouth from her sobs and began walking to the school. She got the steps and saw Caleb's mustang pull up. She prayed he couldn't see her, she quickly opened the door and hurried inside.
"I guess she still doesn't like me right now." Caleb replied inside the car.
"It'll be ok. Just talk to her tomorrow."
Caleb smiled at her.
