Ian's POV

I was tired of waiting. I left my room and headed for the supply hole. If you ask me, Wanda and Jared had had plenty of time to talk. I was getting anxious…

When I finally made it to the hole, I found it abandoned. I had turned to leave when I heard boxes shifting behind me. I whipped around. Shifting boxes caught my attention.

"Wanda?"

"Ian? Ian! Can you help me?" Her voice sounded shaky, had she been crying? I rushed over to the stacks of boxes. Removing them, careful not to hurt Wanda, I aided her struggle for freedom. When she was liberated, Wanda crumpled on the ground.

{Is she hurt?! What did Jared do?!} I thought as I dropped down next to her to find out. Silent tears were running down her red cheeks. She tried to wipe them away too late.

"Wanda? What happened?" My voice was soft, full of concern. But the thought of what happened apparently was too painful. Wanda shook her head as more tears leaked down her face. I sat quietly for a moment… then I slid over to her and scooped her into my lap. Hugging her to my chest.

"It's okay, Wanda," I whispered reassuringly, "You don't have to say a word…"

Wanda didn't seem to think so, cuz about a minute later, she whispered into my shirt, "He kissed me Ian…"

I tensed up, and immediately forced myself to relax, "He did?" my voice shook

"It was a test," Wanda's voice cracked, "and I thought… I thought it was real…" she shoved her face closer to me.

"A test?" I asked. Setting aside her second comment for the moment

"He thought he knew what would happen… I surprised him…"

"Why does it matter to you if it was real or not Wanda?" I steered the conversation back to how Wanda felt. I could get all the gory details of the kiss from Jared later. All I cared about right then was Wanda and her feelings.

"I… I wanted it to be…" her answer was almost inaudible… but I still caught it… and a little piece of me tore.

A shaky "Oh…" was all I could muster

"Mel's emotions are too strong…" Wanda commented almost bitterly

"Mel's?"

"She loves him, so I do too."

I was confused, "So… Do you, yourself love him? Or Mel?"

She paused, thinking. Her tears were thinning too. "I don't know. It's hard to separate my feelings from my body's."

I couldn't decide if I should be reassured or upset by that. So instead I asked, "Are you ok?"

"I think so," she sniffed. "Thank you Ian." Wanda wrapped her arms around me and squeezed. Then she pecked my cheek with a kiss before standing and walking back down the cave corridor. I was left sitting, mouth agape in shock, to watch her departure.

Thanks for reading guys! Don't forget to comment! Even if it's something random like, "I like cheese!"
