Part 13

Alexa walked behind Sky. She ran as fast as she could, but couldn't catch up until they were inside. ''Sky?'' she asked hesitantly as they stood at the door of his room. He turned slowly and Alexa saw that he had tears in his eyes. "Everything fine?" she asked, startled. Sky shook his head and looked at the ground. "There's something I have to tell you," he told her slowly. ''But I can't tell you outside.'' He opened the door without looking at her and walked inside. Alexa walked in behind him. She sat down on his bed and looked at him with concern. Sky sat down at his desk and looked for a photo. When he found the photo, he showed it to Alexa. Alexa examined the photo carefully and saw a familiar face in the photo. "Is that Emma?!" she asked in surprise. She looked up from the photo and saw Sky nodding with a sad face. Alexa looked back at the photo and saw Sky standing next to Emma in the photo. Next to Sky was a boy with brown hair. You saw the resemblance between Sky and the boy. "That's Nicolas," Sky said slowly as he sat down next to her. He pointed to the boy next to him in the photo and Alexa saw that he now had a small smile on his face. "Is that Emma's brother?" Alexa asked, looking at Sky. ''Yes,''p he replied. Alexa compared Emma to Nicolas and vice versa. Do you notice anything? Sky asked suddenly. Alexa looked at the photo again, but saw nothing special. "New?" Alexa said to him. The smile had disappeared from Sky's face. "Really not?" he asked again. Alexa looked at the photo again and now compared all three people. Emma with Nicolas, Nicolas with Emma, Nicolas with Sky, Sky with Emma And then she saw it. "You're family, aren't you?" she said in a calm tone, looking at Sky. ''Yes, and even more so,'' he replied. ''Nicolas is my brother and Emma my sister, although I'm not very happy with that.'' He stood up without looking at Alexa and walked back to his desk. He stood with his back to her and said nothing. Alexa walked over to him and turned him towards her. "Look deeply into my eyes," Alexa said, but Sky kept looking at his hands. Alexa took his face between her two hands and turned it towards her. ''Look at me, Sky,'' she said again. "Do you see something of horror on my face?" Sky sighed softly and said, ''No.'' They looked each other in the eye now. "Good, because otherwise I wouldn't know what to say," Alexa said in a stifled tone. Sky had moved closer to her, bringing them so close together that Alexa Sky felt his breath on her face. ''I just don't know if I want to see Emma again,'' Sky said. ''Not at all Jane,'' Alexa replied. ''By the way, do you know w...'' Alexa began, but Sky cut off her question by kissing her. Alexa leaned over to Sky and kissed him back. A strange feeling rose in her. It was like a mixture of anxiety, fear and happiness. But she let that be what it was. Focusing on Sky, she positioned herself on her toes and wrapped her arms around his neck. She knew they had to go back to Robin and Jane, but her mind said she'd rather stay with Sky. Sky pulled her closer and kissed her even harder and more intensely. Alexa ran her hands through his hair and pulled his head closer to her. She forgot all that was around them and only had eyes for Sky. She had never felt so free as at that moment. She felt like a butterfly that has emerged and can fly freely in nature without anyone flying in her way. She had never felt so free as at that moment.

''Yeah, pretty sure,'' someone suddenly said behind them. They released each other quickly and looked at Robin. ''Is knocking a big question?'' asked Sky, but looked at Robin with a small grin. "So that's what you guys are doing?" said Jane coming from behind Robin. She put her arm on Robin's shoulder and grinned at Alexa. ''We were wondering what you were doing.'' "Sorry," Sky said quickly. "We'll say it next time we want to be alone for a while." ''Thank you,'' said Jane. The four looked at each other and began to laugh. ''By the way, what did you actually have to get?'' Jane asked suddenly. "Nothing important," Sky replied with a slanted smile. ''Okay then,'' said Jane. ''Are we going back outside or are we staying inside?'' "I think I'll go to sleep," Alexa said. "Is that a problem?" ''No, of course not,'' Jane replied. ''I think everyone deserves some rest. She walked out of the room and pulled Robin by the hand. Robin said "sleep well" to Alexa and Sky and followed Jane outside. "So..." Alexa said. "See you tomorrow?" "See you tomorrow," Sky replied, giving her another quick kiss and letting her go outside.
