"You wouldn't believe how much I missed you." He says. I laugh.

"I missed you too."I say trying not to cry. But I can't help myself. My eyes start to water. Augustus wipes the tears then strokes my cheek.

"Why are you crying?" he asks

"I don't know." I reply. "I just missed you."

He brings me into an embrace. We stand there for a long time. Without speaking to each other. Finally I realized I needed to check on my parents to make sure they are okay.

"Can I go see my parents?" I ask him.

"Of course." He answers. "Follow me."

We dash over to a weird cloud slide. When we were running I felt free. Without Phil (her cannula) I felt powerful and free.

"We just have to slide down this then walk to your parent's house." Augustus says.

"Okay?" he adds.

"Okay." I respond.

I let him go first. Then it is my turn. I push off. I see white fluffy clouds disappear and my house appears into sight.

"Here we are." Augustus says as he helps me up. We walk to the front door.

"So we just walk in?" I ask.

"Yeah pretty much. They won't be able to see us. He answers. A part of me is joyed and part of me is crushed. I want my parents to see me. But I don't want them to see me making out with Augustus. We walk in and I see my mom crying.
