Burn

Chapter 7

Burn (chapter 7)

And then the least unaccepted thing happens. Ace kisses me, and I like it, a lot.

He pulls away quickly, "I'm sorry, I just, I didn't know how to te-" I cut him off with pulling him to me again and kissing him hard. He immediately pulls me closer to him, but a minute later we pull away out of breath.

He laughs quietly and then looks up at me, "Wow, I wasn't expecting that."

I smile my first real smile in the past 3 weeks, and shake my head slightly. "Honestly, me neither Ace."

He looks down a little, "Any other questions you want answered?" He looks back up at me, flicking his eyes between my eyes and mouth.

"Yes, but I think they can wait a little bit." And then we were kissing.
___________________________
I replay all the moments that happened today in my head, the pin, the question, and last but not least that kiss or should I say kisses. I smile just thinking about it, I can't believe it happened. I mean, come on a month ago I hated him, the thought of him made me gag. Now when I think about him, I get this tingling feeling in my stomach and can't stop smiling. God I fell hard.

And suddenly my whole mood changes, the pain is back. But instead of just the burning in my wrist, my right ankle does as well, I try to look down, but as soon as I try I whimper out of pain. Luckily my room mate moved out, so I don't have to worry about that at least. I start to slowly curl into a ball.

"Make it stop." I whisper softly, and then boom, all the pain minimizes, tell there is barely any. I slowly sit up to look at my ankle that was burning and see a symbol, a symbol burned into my flesh, it looks like a brand new tattoo. I have never ever heard of that before.

And then my phone beeps three times, signifying that someone is trying to call me. I look at the caller id and see that it's a blocked number (which means it's a call from a pay phone). I press the answer button and can't even get a 'hello' out before the person starts talking.

"Look I need to talk to you, can I come in." Ace.

"Okay, ya, 137 is my r-" Is all I can say before the line goes dead. I immediately get to action. I quickly roll my pant leg back down and throw all of my stray clothes in the closet. Slip on my hoodie that's sitting on my couch since I'm only in my sports bra and jeans. Just in time it seems, because he knocks on the door as soon as it slips over my head. How the hell did he get here so fast?

I run to the door, hoping no one sees him standing in the hallway, and open it to find Ace standing there, and I can't lie he is hot. As soon as he sees me he kissed me, shutting the door in the process. The kiss was different though, it wasn't like the ones earlier. It was, needy, like he had to do it or he would die.

I quickly pulled away, "What is wrong Ace."

He stared at me and whispered, "Kat, are you okay." All I could do was nod my head and silently ask what do you mean. He looked at me weakly and said, "I started to feel dizzy when I got back to my, uh home, and I laid down, thinking I was just on a high from kissing you," I smiled as he said that. "And when I laid down and I-I felt you... I know it sounds crazy but I felt your pain and I-I thought I was crazy and I was wishing it was fake so that you wouldn't be in pain. And when I wished that I felt your brain start to ease. I-I'm probably crazy, I know I just-"

"You're not crazy." I shook my head. And before I could say anything else, he smiles and then kisses me.

I kiss back and when we break for air, I whisper "Ace, can I tell you something." He nods once, "I don't want to freak you out, but all you said happened I did have some, uh pain today, and it when it stopped, it stopped immediately." I shook my head, "I just don't understand how you.."

All he did was shake his head. "I need to show you something." I said as I pulled my right Jean leg up just enough for him to see the symbol.

"Oh my god, Kat, when did you get that." He whisper-yelled as soon as he saw it.

"Today when I was burning. What is it, what does it mean." I stared into his eyes which only showed awe.

"It's a symbol, a symbol of a legend, Kat, a legend that states of a group of warriors with special abilities, Kat. And I have one to."
