CHAPTER 5
Prim's P.O.V
I got to school the next day and Jenny and Peter weren't there yet. So I put my hood up and got out of my car. I leaned against the hood waiting for them to come.
"Nice wheels." Someone said. I turned and saw Alex. "I could definitely never afford something like that." I rolled my eyes.
"What do you want Alex?" I said, annoyed by him.
"I met your Nana and your little sister last night." He said, leaning against the hood of the car beside me.
"I heard." I deadpanned.
"You know, you never answered my question yesterday, why do you always wear your hood up?"
"Because . . . every boy in school used to stare at me and it used to creep me out, so I decided to start wearing jeans and a hoody. But I guess it didn't work in the end." I said glaring at him in accusation.
"Look, I only stared partly because I was trying to figure out your power, which I didn't. Two, I find you interesting. And three, I wished you would take that bloody hood down." He said, getting slightly angry towards the end.
"You want me to take my hood down? Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you." I pulled my hood down and took my hair out of its bobble.
I looked at Alex who was staring at me with lust in his eyes. I slapped him across the face, which made his head turn to the side.
I watched him shake his head and he looked back at me. His eyes were still filled with lust, but he seemed himself again.
"You . . . your . . ." Alex said, struggling to get his words out.
"You don't have to say anything." I said, going to tie my hair back up.
I gasped as he suddenly grabbed my hands, stopping me from tying up my hair.
"You should leave it down, and your hood too." He said. I pulled my hands from his grasp.
"Thanks for the advice, but this is exactly why I try to hide myself." I said. I tied my hair back up, and pulled my hood back onto my head.
Alex sighed, still looking at me. It was silent. An awkward silence.
Until Alex stepped forward and pushed my hood back down. I was about to pull it back up, but suddenly his lips were crushed onto mine.
It took me a moment to realise he was kissing me and then I began to kiss back. But then I remembered, I shouldn't be doing this, I can't do this. It's the powers of evil that stop me.
I pulled back quickly. We were both breathing heavily. "I can't, I'm sorry Alex, I just can't." I whispered. I pushed away from him and ran for the woods.
"Prim, Prim I'm sorry, Prim come back . . ." I heard Alex call after me. I knew he was trying to use his powers to make me come back, but they were useless against me.
I kept running until I was deep in the woods, where nobody would find me. Once I was sure I was far enough away, I fell to the ground, bringing my knees to my chest as I began to cry.

Alex's P.O.V
What the hell? Why weren't my powers working against her? It only meant one thing . . . she was stronger than me. But how is that possible? Nobody can get a stronger power in the world than I have.
Then I remembered what Lilly, her Nana had said. She said it was much, much worse than Prim's mother's powers. That means they were worse than mine, but what could it mean?
