"What do you mean by grave danger?" I asked Jack numbly

"Danger so scary it could kill us". He said, laughing nervously

"We can't die" I said, relief flooding my mind. What did he mean by grave danger, after all we've died a thousand deaths over the years

"Au contraire, Cherie, back then you either died first and I followed suit, only to trace you down. This time, we are together, and Lana is going to get help for sure. She wouldn't wanna make a mistake again."

I swallowed and asked "I don't get it, Why is she after you? I understand Arthur and his issue"

"She loves me" He said calmly looking out the window

"She what now?" I asked, folding my arms

"I met her first before I met you" He said.

I waved my hands in dismissal "That's not the issue, Jack, What are we going to do?"

"There's the edge of time, of course, but we can't go there until after graduation"

"It exists" Delia said, Materializing. "Its a beautiful place, Ella"

She turned to Jack "I got the house , although it needs redecorating and I had to convince the timeless ones that Ella is coming"

"Where's the house?" He asked

"In the orbit of a pink moon" she replied.....I stared at both of them like I was missing a few brain cells

"Hello, earth to both of you" I wail

"Ella, if you had a house, how would you decorate it?" Jack asked

"The same way I did my room" I said absently.....He looked around my room. Clean crisp colours.

"Um, okay" he said, itching his hairline. "After graduation,then"
