****Abuse scene****

Jamie's POV

****At Carter's house****

I opened my eyes to see Carter's unclothed body. I snuggled into his bare chest and tried to go back to sleep.

I quickly got agitated because I couldn't sleep, so I got up, picked my clothes up off if of the floor and got dressed.

I slipped out the door and walked to the room Izzy was staying in to check on her

I slipped out the door and walked to the room Izzy was staying in to check on her. It has been a week since the incident and we had all been okay. Carter's mom was out of town for the week but was coming home today and we had to find somewhere to go after then.

Once in Izzy's room I started to pack her few belongings. She yawned and walked up to me and reached her arms out so I would pick her up. I swept her up into my arms and put her on my back. I began running around with her on my back and began to levitate about 3 feet in the air.

I shrieked as I felt my fathers fist connect with my face. He grabbed me by my small arm and threw me into my dresser. I felt my knees buckle as I fell down to the floor. My father yanked me up by my hair and shoved me into the closet. I curled into a ball as I heard the familiar lock of the door. I could feel my eye lids beginning to droop. I tried my hardest to keep them open, but the pain caused me to pass out.

I awoke to the sound of frantic scrambling.
"Damnit Jamie where did you go?"

I looked at my surroundings and realized that I was on a shelf above my bed.
'How in the universe...' I thought

I began to think of how to get down from the shelf when my body began to gravitate towards the ground.

I clenched my eyes shut and when I opened them I was standing behind my father. I held my breath as he turned around and slapped me.

****end of flashback****

I remember that day like it was yesterday. It was the day I found out I was different. I didn't show anyone because, frankly I didn't have anyone to tell. But I knew I wasn't supposed to be able to do that. So I learned to control and hide it.

"J? You okay?"

Carter's voice snapped me out of my trance as I realized while I was thinking, I had levitated up to ceiling. I sat cross legged in the air with Izzy on my lap.

I looked up from Izzy's face to see Carter standing in the doorway.

I nodded as I levitated to the ground and put Izzy down to play. I grabbed Carter's hand and buried my face in his chest.

"Am I okay Carter? Am I really?"

This book is an outlet for my imagination. So yes it won't be completely realistic. I mean, where's the fun in that?
