Deirdre's P.O.V
I don't know what may be going on in her mind but I hope she understands that I don't understand either. All was a mystery. Saving Ryan and now, Rich. Ever since I read the book,I had been full of energy.
Adrenaline rush? Not so!! This is more than a biology professor can explain. Could it be magic or super powers?. Who got an answer to this?
Hundreds of thoughts roamed across my disturbed mind that I didn't know when we reached the house. 'Lotte's other brothers were already tensed up and seeing us return with Rich was a huge relief.
"Richmond, thank heavens you left the pub before that crash", Matty said feeling relaxed.
" Who knew that pub could be pulled down", Cole added.
"I bet you're gonna live on only water for the rest of your existence. No more alcohol", Simon shot.
" I thought I'd have all your DVDs to myself", Nick added to jokingly.
Charlotte and Richmond looked at me with a knowing smile and continued the conversation without adding any comments to the others talk.
I could not say anything about what happened. How would I explain those happenings? Every one could have taken it as a rush or something but not certainly Charlotte and Richmond. Even me. I feel crazy, like one part of me strange and changed.
I kept my face on the TV but my mind was no longer there. I guess 'Lotte noticed it and she found a way of excusing us from the living room.
"Guys, I think it is bedtime for Deirdre and I. We got to be at school tomorrow. Sleep well", she said dragging me up from the couch. I also muttered 'good night' to the guys and we went to her room.
"Charlotte...", I called out as she fell on the bed. She looked at me with some surprise of sort.
"I want you to understand that I don't really understand what happened at Ryan's party and this evening too. It's very strange. I can't decipher what was responsible for those. it is something really strange and I have been having this kinda strange feeling too", I found myself explaining.
"I want you to tell me everything you've been through in the past one week. Maybe it could help in finding a solution to this", I heard her saying comfortingly with her hands on my shoulders.
I nodded.
"There's is this awkward thing about my new locker mate, Nathan Kings. The first day he pinned me to the locker and was saying some strange things that I could not really understand. He said something about a book and I saw the book. I took it home to read and after that I have just been on this crazy super hero thing. He also said I have a lot of powers too", I deeply explained.
"Powers? Could he be right about that? Why not try to set up a discussion with him and see if you guys can talk this over? 'Cause, another superheroic display and we are owing America and explanation", she advised.
"Setting up meetings with him is as easy as anything else can be. But there's this strange feelings I get whenever we are anywhere close to each other", I poured out again. Charlotte gave a corner mouth smile.
"I understand, D. But you got to do this,you know. It is really who you are we are talking about here. I can't be there cause I want it to be a private conversation. So baby,do this and let's find out who you really are", she said.
"Alright, I'll try talking to him tomorrow. I pray we get enough time although he always appears too serious", I accepted. Charlotte gave me a nod.
"By the way, where is the goddamned book you were talking about?",she asked.
"It's in the house. I kept in my drawers since I never wanted Raine to learn of it", I replied.
"I see! We will do something about this tomorrow,OK?", she asked. I nodded in the affirmative.
"Good. There's something I really wanted to ask you this night before all these popped up", 'Lotte said and I told her to carry on.
"Are you in any serious relationship?", she asked. She was damn serious even when I was laughing.
"Of course,no. If I were into any serious thing,you will be the first to know", I replied.
"Do you like Ryan by any chance?", she asked again.
"Well, he happened to be the only friend I had in our freshman year. But we are just friends. Innocent friends", I captioned making 'Lotte smile.
"Well, I think the guy has a soft spot for you", she whispered into my ear. I giggled.
"You can always tell when someone likes someone but you can't when someone likes you", I sarcastically shot back.
"That is something I'm yet to understand. So,who is making the first move? You or Ryan?", she blurted out and I looked at her in surprise.
"Charlotte!!!", I shouted and she let out her arms.
"You need a rest", I said and she smiled herself to bed.
