Chapter 18
Why is the truth so hard?
"Alison? You can fire bend? Since when has this been a thing?" Levi asked. Alison tried not looking at her friends hoping to avoid explaining things.
"C'mon Alison, you were going to tell them anyway." Ross said.
"How bad can the reason be? You're our friend Allie, being a fire bender won't change how we see you as a person." Britta said.
"Yeah, but why were you hiding it? We're your friends?" Levi said as Alison sighed.
"Simple, it's so hard anymore to get people to trust you if you can fire bend. I wanted people to see me as a good guy, and to not be afraid of me." Alison said looking down, the truth was a hard thing to say, and even then she found herself holding back some details. Still afraid to completely trust her friends. She didn't even know why she was withholding information anymore.
"Allie, you're a great friend and you're on the right team, if anything, your fire bending will help us out." Levi said hugging Alison.
"Yeah, but here's the thing, I don't want to fire bend. I'd rather not go into why, but I have gone so long without fighting with it and I want to keep it under wraps for as long as possible unless I absolutely have to." Alison said as Levi sighed nodding.
"It's nothing to be ashamed of, but if that's how you feel Allie, we'll stick by your decision." Levi said as the group joined in a group hug. Alison sighed…
Why couldn't telling the truth be easy?
(AN: So there's still more hidden things to be figured out! Any fan theories as to what else Alison is hiding? Does anyone want Levi and Alison to get together anytime soon? Leave a review or PM me! I love feed back!)
