I was laying next to him hand in hand. He was asleep but still held on tight. I was dead tired after the fair but I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking about that moment before the fight, the moment he had kissed me. I wasn't thinking about me transforming it was more about how his lips felt, how they tasted. Every time I thought about it I regretted pushing him away, I wish it had lasted longer. I kept looking over to him considering if I should. He might not feel the same way about me, or he could wake up what would I do then how would I explain my sudden urge to kiss him. Without even thinking I started getting closer and closer to him slowly letting go of his hand. Before I knew it my lips were only inches away from his; I could feel his breath on my lips. I finally made up my mind and gently kissed him. He woke up sometime while I was kissing him, he put one hand on my cheek and the other started stroking my hair and he kissed back. He pushed me on top of him and grabbed my waist with one hand and held my cheek with the other. I pulled at his t-shirt a bit and played with his hair. We kept kissing like that for a while. It started getting hotter in there so I took off my shirt ( I was wearing a bra under) and my pants turned into really soft booty shorts, Angel also took off his T-shirt. We kept kissing. He put his hands in the pockets of my shorts and I kept playing with his hair. We got a little too carried away and I ended up falling on the floor taking Angel with me. We looked at each other for a second and started laughing. We finally went to sleep and I had the same dream I had last time.

This time it was longer and it went to another dream: I had sat down with my family and friends and they all told me how much they had missed me and how happy they were that I had gotten better. After we ate my parents told me they had a surprise for me. They set up a projector (I didn't even know we had one until now). It started playing photos and videos of me with my family and friends. I have never even seen these photos or videos before in my life. They were some of my birthday party's that I didn't remember ever having, me in Disney which I had never been to. There so much more, I just don't even know. I don't remember any of these occurring but they felt familiar. For some reason I began crying, crying like I never have before. My mom sat next to me wiped away the tears and kissed forehead. Its kind of sad but my mom hasn't really comforted me even when I was having a panic attack because of school since I was 10. That's when I woke up in cold sweat with tears in my eyes. Angel got up from bed put my back to his chest, in between his legs and told me it was ok. After he comforted me for awhile we laid back down but I couldn't fall asleep. Angel must have still been awake because he turned me around to face him.

"Do you miss your family"
"What do you mean"
" Nightshades can sometimes see each others dreams and see the dream you had and that you had woken up crying and shaking I just guessed"
"No it's not that, it's just my parents never really paid attention to me and the rest of my family lives in another country so I never really see them so I've always sorta been alone"

We kept talking about it until I started feeling better.

"I'm really glad you found me in the forest" tears were still streaming down my face
"I'm really happy I found you too, who would have known I would have fallen in love with you"

I finally fell asleep in Angels arms. The next day everyone woke up at around noon. Everyone was still tired from the fair but the atmosphere was nice. I helped Jackeline make lunch for everyone. She was surprised at how good I was at cooking. I made some omelettes and pancakes. Jackeline made muffins and bacon. We had some toddlers in the kitchen help me brake the eggs and others help her make the muffins.
I didn't have time to eat because we had to make enough food for everyone in the whole camp, that's more than five thousand kids. When I was done, Angel called me and told me he had a surprise for me. I took a quick shower, changed, and headed towards where Angel told me to meet him. Alex and Savanah were eating lunch at the dining hall. I got to the edge of the woods and there Angel was waiting for me with a picnic basket and a huge smile on his face. "Are you ready" Angel beamed. We headed towards a wisteria tree.  We had the time of our lives we talked for hours. We came out of the woods laughing my arm wrapped around his. When I saw everyone sharpening their weapons I started panicking, but Angel explained they were just practicing nothing was really happening. I found Jackeline she was drawing all sorts of different weapons and armor. Alex was also there with her, she was teaching him how to do it with more detail and size ranges. There was also a pile of different drawings all over the place. Alex saw me first and was about to hug me but I guess he remembered what had happened between us and decided against it. They both got up and I hugged Jackeline. I went back to the field and trained with Angel, we went full nightshade mode and taught me how to fight correctly. "The first time you transform you know every strategy for fighting and mostly end up winning but that's only for the first time, the rest is up too you" he explained. He taught me how to fight hand to hand combat, he also told me its better to know how to fight than to rely so much on our powers. I learned how to use knives, swords, bow and arrows, flying stars, and all sorts weapons. We spent the whole day training. I was so tired that I passed out the minute my head touched the pillow that night. I didn't have a dream this time or maybe I just didn't remember. I was happy.
