In the night

flash of the past

~Vesta~

Summer started and Savanna went to her grandma’s place while Johnny and Derek went to football camp. Em and Tay are the only ones still around. I sighed and walked with the two twins down the street.  Johnny says the dvd he had of the tunnel was lost before he went to camp so when they got back they would try again, I was not going I already knew that. I want into the diner and up to Ashley. “hey can I hang this flyer?” she looked it over and asked “party? What party?” I smiled and said “my friends are throwing a summer bash.” She nodded and I hung it by the door.

I walked out and went to the library I was covering the whole town with the twins making sure people would show up. As I finished the last flyer. I met the girls at the fountain. As I walked over to them I put a flyer on the post by the fountain and turned seeing Jax with his friends. He looked so much like that guy from the dream but it was just a dream. I turned and walked over to Tay. “ready?” she nodded and took my arm linking them together we walked away and I looked back at Jax. He was looking at the flyer then he looked at me.

We walked up to Emily’s road outside of town. While the twins cleared the pool while I started baking a load of goodies. We had tons of snacks and two 24foot long subs on the dining room table. As the girls cleaned up I heard a knock on at the door. Hmm? I walked over and opened the door seeing three girls from Josh’s old click. “hi um we heard about the party and we were just wondering if you guys needed any help?” I smiled and said “sure.” Emily ran over and saw the three girls walk in with five guys.  One being Jax. He looked at me with a smirk.

I turned and walked back into the kitchen. As the girls helped me bake the guys went out back and started to help with the yard work. As I finished another cake I stated “I think this should be enough?” they nodded smiling. They were actually nice since graduation. I walked out back and saw the ladder wobbling with Tay on it. I bolted forwards and steadied it. “thanks V!” she stated I nodded and said “are you nuts are you trying to break your neck?” she smiled and finished hanging some decorations. “hey mind getting the lights up?” I shrugged

As I was putting in the light bulbs for the yard I couldn’t reach the last few. As I stretched I felt arms wrap around my thighs and lift me up. I looked down seeing Jax holding me. I smiled at him and he smirked. I think my eyes were playing tricks on me because for a second Jax wasn’t standing there anymore. Instead the man from my dream was. I blinked and looked back to the lights. As I twisted the bulbs in he held me steady and then when I finished he would move to the neck one. We finished them and he set me down. I looked up at him and he smiled at me. Again I saw a flash of the man I dreamt about. Jax let go of my waist and turned walking away. I sighed and walked to the trees.

~Jax~

The party started and most of the pack was here to see the new luna to the pack. I saw her dancing with her friends. Soon a slow song came on and I saw her friends start dancing with some guys. I watched as she walked away to the tree she leaned on it and watched. As I walked towards her I saw a flash she wasn’t there instead was the girl from my dream her hair was flowing down to her waist with blue streaks flowing through it. She smiled at me, I blinked and Vesta stood there again. I smiled and walked up to her.

“care to dance?” I asked she smiled and took my extended hand. We walked into the dancing people and I placed my hands on her waist, as we danced she put one hand behind my neck. We swayed to the music and she looked into my eyes I swear her eyes made me see that dream all over again. She was exactly like the girl in my dream. What were we? Was that a past life? Was that our future? How were we connected? She was my mate yet I knew in my heart she wasn’t a witch. Then how was my mate powerful enough to take our rogues.

As I spun her she laughed and came back into my arms. We continued to dance it was like no one else was there just us. We were the only ones in the world. In time. I felt as if this has happened before that I knew Vesta somehow. As we danced I leaned my forehead on hers. We continued to sway until the song ended then as if something clicked Vesta pulled away and said “thanks for the dance.” She walked away into the kitchen. I watched the last dvd from her friends and saw everything. It was a story I think it was history. I think it’s our history.

~Vesta~

I leaned on the table and shook my head it was so strange Jax was exactly like that guy in my dream but something was compelling me to stay away from him. As if something bad was going to happen that us together would bring it out. I shook my head again I was being pulled to different ways. One was towards Jax and the other away. It was so confusing. I closed my eyes and relaxed letting everything go just to clear my mind.

~???~

I felt it… I knew this would happen again. They were back that couple…. I smirked knowing this cage will open once again. All I had to do was get one of them and then I would never be locked away again. I would be free to roam the world and eat my fill of the flesh I craved. I licked my lips all I had to do was wait. Once that day passes I would be free. Then only then I had a chance to get them.

I paced in this god forsaken cage once again. As I paced I saw his bones on the wall in front of me. He was the one to get me locked away. Now that he was gone his child was all that was left. Once I ate her then I would never be locked away again. I would be free to eat my fill…. Oooh my fill. I never had my fill since that cursed pyro was born. The one with different colors. I always got so close but then the protector would show up before I had a chance to sink my teeth into that tender skin. Ooh the delicious skin of humans… it’s so delicious.

I growled thinking of the dogs that protect the one chosen to lock me away. Their people were so stupid they believed I was released every time they got together. I laughed at the stupidity. I continued to pace my cage as I watched the different colors weakening. I would be free soon. So soon…

~Jax~

I walked up to Vesta and asked “are you alright?” she turned looking right at me. “yeah I’m fine. Just it’s strange to have a guy wan to dance with me.” I smirked and said “I can’t believe that.” I looked her up and down. She smiled and said “yeah well I’m a bit of a mental case if you haven’t noticed.” I smiled at her and chuckled saying “oh I noticed. But I don’t see that as a down point.” She smiled and turned getting a drink I stood by her and asked “Vesta have you ever been on a date?” she looked up at me as her cheeks heated up.

“no note really.” She answered honestly. “I promise I won’t pull anything but I do know plenty of dancing places. If you want to go sometime?” I realized it she was a dancer she loved to move and dance. She’s been dancing since the music started. “just once Jax I’ll take you up on that offer.” I smiled and said “cool just give me a shout when you want to go. Totally up to you.” She smiled and said “we go as friends alright?” I nodded I would start as her friend.

Another song started and I held out my hand we walked back to the dance floor and she started to move once again. She really was a born dancer. She moved so gracefully.
