Sight

Ch.11 Highway to Hell

After a night of restless waiting Bonnie was able to walk again. We where on a highway to hell, what pissed me off is how Nick deliberately did everything in his power to piss off Jason's pet. It was like he found some sick amusement in annoying her all I knew is that he'd better be careful, or he'd end up regretting it. Sometimes it made me wonder if he was attracted to her but then I didn't think to much of it because I felt like I would be sick if did continue on that train of thought.

I kept walking swiftly and easily over the rugged roots, humidity hung like a thick cloud of moisture around me I could feel the thick streams of sweat running down my back. I sighed wishing I was in some sort of thrift store with air conditioning or something just to get out of the heat. I couldn't really complain, I was doing this for Bella. I continued on dragging my feet, my shirt was beginning to stick to me and the sky was a cloudless clear blue. There went my hope for any sort of shade or winds, it felt like the heat wouldn't cease. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Raven flirting with Jason who apparently didn't object to the flirting and seemed to go with it and I almost said something when my thought was interrupted.

"Chris." Sam said and I almost ran right into him, he had stopped right in the middle of another clearing.

I looked at him studying his expression I didn't know what was wrong but something had stopped him cold in his tracks. I scanned the feild and it hit me as I stared straight ahead at another Sam who looked exactly like the one standing right next to me. It was like there was a giant mirror right in front of us but it was only reflecting Sam. Though it wasn't a reflection and I realized it, because that Sam had wings.

Perfect just what we would need on this rescue mission another Sam. I gulped watching quietly I didn't know what to do I couldn't stand up to that Sam. I was too weak to go up against someone like him. I felt so powerless because if he attacked I wouldn't be able to protect anyone in our gang. The other Sam didn't seem to do anything to us instead he jumped upward into the sky his beautiful white streaked wings reflecting the sunlight making him look like some sort of angelic god. I gasped slightly knowing this is a vision I probably would never forget.

The moment was ruined when Nick coughed and said, "Damn, Chris stop drooling." And my cheeks instantly burned red and for a moment I was tempted to bash his face in with a nearby rock.

"For your information Nicholas, I wasn't drooling!" I say harshly, turning toward him my face still red and betraying me because I was pretty close to drooling but it's not like I'd ever admit it to an idiot like him.

My reaction just erupted laughter out of Nick and my idea of bashing his face in with a rock just kept sounding better and better. Silver seemed somewhat amused but her amusement ceased when she suddenly let out a high pitched squeal.

"MIDNIGHT!!!" she shrieked running in a direction across the field.

I saw a quick dart like if whatever the heck midnight was didn't want anything to do with her. I didn't blame the thing she was too giddy to even consider real. This thing darted past us and grabbed me instantly like it was using me as a living meat shield against silver. In instinct I elbowed him in the gut and took a hard punch to his collarbone where he collapsed instantly.

"Ouch, what the fuck was that for!" He cursed and looked at me like I was some sort of lunatic and silver now held onto him tightly. He pried silver off him annoyed and looked sideways at Nick.

"Thanks for blowing cover, you dim witted moron." He muttered harshly and a violent spark showed in Nick's eyes.

"Who the hell are you?" I realized this was a question I found myself frequently asking to all these anonymous weirdos.

"Also, You don't go around randomly grabbing someone and using them as a shield to protect you from you're overly obsessive girlfriend you creep!"

I snapped and felt puzzled now noticing all these people where just delays on getting Bella back.

"I'm mid.." His answer was cut off by silver "He's my husband." She simply stated giving me a death glare.

I felt more confused than ever at that moment and I really just wanted to get Bella back. I realized I didn't care who these people where these where Jason's friends that we knew nothing about. All they did was create more of an obstacle to deal with and I was getting furious about it. I was close to snapped when I felt a hand grab mine and I looked up at Sam who just grinned. I blinked a little surprised he never did something like grab my hand. His hand felt warm against mine and it didn't feel weird at all to be holding his hand. It's like he understood me somehow.

>I do understand you.<

I froze when I heard the voice inside my head my face going red.

>you can hear my thoughts?? Since when, how, why?<

>I've always been able to hear your thoughts, though it's only your thoughts no one else's.<

I felt like fainting so now he knew exactly what I felt and thought about him and here I thought I actually had privacy in my own mind. Apparently that was another thing the world had to screw me over with. I felt so awkward, now knowing this I never knew we had a connection to one another like this. That meant I had to be careful what thought, and this was one of those few times in my life where I wished I had the power to erase memories.

I heard a chuckle in my mind and I shivered a little at the feeling of it. I glanced at Sam and he didn't seem bothered at all by what I thought he actually seemed happy about it.

>well I'm glad it's you I have to share my thoughts with, if it where Nick he'd never let me live it down.<

I was trying to be optimistic about the situation and I hoped it eased a little bit of the awkwardness but I felt like it only made it worse. Before that emotion could increase or change into a different thought, Sam leaned down and kissed me on the lips in front of everyone like it was the most natural thing in the world to do. I didn't protest and I felt a strong arm go around my waist and press me closer to him. my arms slowly found their way around his neck and they felt like that's where they where meant to be. The kiss seemed to deepen and a some hinge of passion and hunger for it began to unravel itself at the pit of my stomach. I didn't want this to end, this felt so perfect.

It felt like this was the way things where supposed to be. I didn't get my wish on it never ending because Sam eventually broke the kiss. I looked up at him and smiled his eyes seemed to glow my brain went blank for a moment. Then I remembered that moment was real and it had happened in front of the gang who where now all staring at us with open mouths. I was caught in embarrassment and I stared right back speechless and looked at Sam for any advice.

>What do I say?<

There was silence and then I heard Sam's response whisper softly into my mind sending chills down my back.

>nothing, they knew it would happen eventually.<
