After Izzy had bought practically every pair of jeans in the mall, we headed back to my house.
"Thanks for this, I really needed it." Izzy said to me.
"No problem, babe."
Izzy then walked back to her house a couple blocks away, and i went back to my room and got some MUCH needed sleep.

The next morning I awoke to the smell of pancakes, and bacon. My stomach growled and I looked at the time. Oh no I thought to myself. It was 8:45 and school started at 7:30 SHIT! I ran downstairs and saw my parents casually reading the paper. My mother was a fair lady, with fiery red hair, and blue eyes. My father was a big man, and had balding brown hair along with piercing brown eyes. If you were to see a picture of us as a family you could immediately tell that I was adopted. They never told me where I came from, but I can assume it would never be better than this.
"Sweetheart, calm down!"
"Mom! I'm over an hour late for school!"
"Schools canceled, dear. Something about a pipe breaking? Sit down and eat some food, I can hear your belly rumble from here." My father and I laughed and I went to sit down, and right as my butt connected to the chair the doorbell rang.
"I got it." My father said.
I heard him pad down the hallway, and open the door. I looked past and saw Finn standing in the doorway. What the fuck is he doing here? I angrily stomped towards him.
"This young man is asking to take you out." My dad said with his arms crossed
I glared at Finn.
"I don't want to go out with you."
"You don't have a choice we need to go. Now."
"I said I don't want to go."
"I'm saying you need to."
My father was about to slam the door in his face when I finally agreed.
"Fine."
Finn grabbed my arm and dragged me to his jeep.
"We need to leave."
"Why's are you always so cryptic?!"
"Shut up, and get in the car!"
He slammed his door and sped down our driveway.
"SLOW DOWN!"
I screamed at him.
"No time, princess."
He continued driving like a maniac until we passed a sign that said, You are now leaving Westminster, Iowa
"Finn, you better tell me right now what's happening. You basically just kidnapped ME"
"I will, once we get one more state over."
"Scratch hat, you're not basically kidnapping me, you are kidnapping me!"
"FINE. I'll tell you, just stop whining."
"I'll stop, when you tell me."
"Okay, long story short, your dad was part of a race, that's been surviving since the first life appeared on earth. Your mother was human, and your father was prepared to leave the clan to start a life with her. On his way to the hospital to see you when you were born, he was attacked by a group of FBI agents."
"I'm calling 911."
I said, he then pulled my phone out of my hands and threw it out of the window.
"Let me finish, okay, so, when your father didn't show up your mother put you up for adoption. It took seventeen years for us to find you"
"Us?"
"Yes, the clan. We've come to take you to live with us."
"You. Are. Mental!"
"I'm not!"
"Yes, you are! HELP HELP ME THIS MAN IS KIDNAPPING ME!" I screamed at passing cars. Finn clamped his hand over my mouth.
"It's all true! Why do you think you can feel people's emotions and know what they're thinking?"
Speaking of that his hand clamped over my mouth opened a floodgate to his emotions and thoughts.
Anger, determination, sadness, grief
And now his thoughts,
I know you can hear me, Freya. Everything I told you is true.
I shoved his hand off my mouth and stared at him.
"It can't be true, that's ridiculous."
"I'm not lying."
"Well if you're not, explain to me why we're in a car driving away from my home?"
"That pipe breaking was not coincidence, the FBI agents who took your father are coming after you. I had to save you."
"Awe, how sweet! Tell me, how were you going to protect me?"
"With my own gift."
"And what's that?"
"You know how you called me Poseidon?"
"Yeah, you yelled at me."
"Well...."
With that he took one hand off the steering wheel, and waved it a bit making some strange motions. I heard a sloshing noise behind me and saw there were like five empty bottles of water with their caps off. The water was floating above them making strange movements.
"Oh my god." I squeaked
"I know." He grinned and then splashed me with the water.
"FUCK YOU!" I cried at him.
He laughed and kept driving. Since the water soaked through my shirt, it now clung to me. Finn looked at my torso and grinned. Perv. Luckily I had grabbed a sweater before he kidnapped me. I moved to the back of the car to change.
"Don't look at me." I said
I stripped off the soaking wet t-shirt and looked up. I saw him watching me in the review mirror.
"Stop!" I punched his arm.
I quickly changed into the sweater and sat back down in the front of the car.
"So where are you taking me?" I asked him.
"Home."
