Cindy's Point of View

I followed after Pierce cautiously, wondering what my mom was up to as she led us through the woods. pierce squeezed my hand assuringly as he smiled at me over his shoulder.

We came into a clearing and Pierce lifted me I to his arms as I began to grow tired, not having been as strong as I was before I saw my brother again.

I leaned my head against his chest, allowing my eyes to close as my mind wandered into sleep.

"It's best that she is asleep during this." I heard my mom tell Pierce in a low voice before I was out completely.

I groaned, holding my head as I opened my eyes slowly, shielding my eyes from the bright light that invaded my vision.

I felt lighter than normal, I felt like I hadn't felt in months.

My eyes turned to my side, to where Pierce was sitting beside me with worried eyes as he hovered above me.

"Did it work?" Pierce asked, reaching for me, but I shunned away from him, afraid of the pain his touch may of caused me again.

"I don't bite." Pierce smiled reassuringly at me, holding his arms out in a welcoming gesture. "Come here."

I fell into his arms without an so much as a word, wrapping my arms around him as he did the same to me. I felt light, the heaviness that had been on my heart for the previous several months was gone, replaced with warmth as Pierce held me in his arms.

The sparks spread through my body, causing me to sigh happily at the intensity of them, unlike the dull electricity that had spread through my body before.

And then I was crying into Pierce's chest, not of sadness, but of relief.

And he just held me, assuring me everything would be fine.

And I believed him. I loved him, and for that I put my trust into him.

And I knew I would never regret it.
