Chapter 13: Ch. 13: Hiding Truth
Sam
After Emberlynn's weird encounter with my face, I reach back to the cut, nothing's there, just tender skin and a burning feeling on my back. I stretch to relieve the ache. I look back at Emberlynn, she stares at me, "What did you do? Why did you do that? Emberlynn what is going on? Why are you caring for me? Are there others like you? How-" Emberlynn's voice interrupts my thoughts.
"I healed your wound. I did that because I care for you. I have a feeling that you're important to me. I'm alone for now. All I know is that you know about me, and you need to be in your normal life but I need to know if I can trust you. Can I?" Her head hangs low so the eyes of my dream stare straight back at me. I lose all my words and thoughts, I lose myself in those eyes, those bright blue with dark blue speckles all around her iris, these eyes can see inside my soul, just staring into these eyes, my mind leaves my being. I am aware of her waiting for my response, I blink a couple of times to clear my mind.
"Yeah, you can. What are we going to do? You're a dragon, I'm just a small, weak human compared to you." My mind starts going haywire, making unreasonable plans about her and everything.
"You are not weak. The proof is you being awake after getting that wound. Also, we are going to hide. You're going to go through your normal life and I'll stay here. Hiding and staying out of sight. Don't tell your friend boy too. Understand? She makes it very clear that she really wants this to be a secret.
"My safety is in your hands…" Emberlynn whispers in my mind, I release a breath I didn't know I was holding, this can't be happening. First, a dragon, a freaking dragon, finds and heals me, and then says we have to keep this secret of her existence!
Well, I think I can do this, Dad always said that I was trustworthy. I close my eyes for a second, finalizing my decision. I open them gazing into those reptilian eyes.
"Yes," I say, nodding my head,
"I understand clearly. I will keep our secret, but what about us? Will we have a meeting type of thing? Or speak secretly in our minds?" I ask.
" Because Winter break is here, and I don't know what to do since now… I'm just… speechless… wow." I say, my mind racing about everything that's happened today.
