Chapter 20

LEXI’S POV

November 15…5 days after sickness…

Reminder:

LEXI: Glows, makes people happy and talks to animals

KAYLA: invisibility and force fields

HARRY: Fly, temperature

NIALL: strength, healing

LIAM: Speed, calm

ZAYN: elastic (stretchy), Future

LOUIS: Telekinetic, language

Some of the hints explained:

Lexi telling Kayla not to ‘disappear’ at the concert…Niall plowing through the crowd like it was nothing…Niall throwing the remote at the T.V….when Lexi was shot, Zayn was saying that he should have been able to see it coming…. Liam putting his hand on Harry’s shoulder when Ryan (Lexi’s ex) showed up and Harry calming down….Zayn ducking from the cake…Harry’s temperature when him and Lexi were dancing…Lexi’s glowing…Lexi and the bird, Molly….

It had been five days since Caroline’s little visit, and we hadn’t heard a word from her. We kept the incident private and had to tell Paul everything as well and he promised he would keep it a secret.

It was a tad difficult to explain to the employees, exactly how the balcony door had shattered like it did, but the boys had a ton of money and it was easily taken care of.

I know that Caroline told them it was impossible for me to survive and during the whole thing, I thought I was going to die, I had never been in such excruciating pain in my life, and I hoped I never had to experience it ever again. I hoped and prayed that no one ever had to go through that. I was stunned when I opened my eyes to see Harry, staring down at me.

 I don’t really know if I had died or not, I honestly can’t remember, I felt like I was sleeping I guess. I should have died, I know that I should have died, but for some strange reason I didn’t. All I know is that when I woke up I was surrounded by people who I loved and who loved me more than anything in the world. I don’t know why Caroline did what she did, and we hadn’t seen her since.

 The boys told me what had happened, and how Caroline had turned into some kind of bird, Louis had identified it as a vulture.

I was scared, I had no clue why Caroline would want me dead, and I had this gut feeling that Caroline was somehow, the same woman who had shot me. I hadn’t seen Caroline in person, but from what Louis said, Caroline had turned into a vulture, and a vulture is exactly how I described the girl dressed in black, the girl who shot me. I figured that if Caroline could turn into a vulture, why wouldn’t she be able to turn into that menacing girl?

We later heard that Caroline had been reported missing. She had just dropped everything and vanished…just like she did at the concert.

We had no way of knowing where she was and that scared me, so the boys hired more security as a precaution, even though we all knew full well, that the boys and Kayla could protect themselves far better than the security could. I think they hired them more for my safety than theirs, I was the only helpless one. Kayla could use her invisibility, and shield herself, Niall could rely on his strength, Zayn could see the future, and if he stretched out his legs, he could walk three steps and be a mile away, Harry could fly away, Liam could run, and Louis could defend himself with his telekinesis, and what could I do? I could glow and make people happy, not exactly very useful.

As soon as the blizzard was over, we booked the next flight out of there and headed back to the Great Britain.

I asked the boys if their parents knew about their powers and they said they did, I asked them if any of their family members had powers, but they all said that they were the only ones. That was a little weird, I thought you had to have parents who had powers to be able to have powers, both of my parents had powers. My mother was very in tune with nature, she had what you call a green thumb, she had the ability to make things grow, that’s why she was always in the garden. She could also make you see things, illusions, she’d use that power to tell us bedtime stories when we were younger. My father was extremely intelligent, but chose to keep it a secret from everyone but us…he could also sense danger… That’s something that always puzzled me, why couldn’t he have seen the accident coming? Why did they have to die? Sometimes I did blame my father, but then I think back, and realize that it was just as much my fault, I should have stopped them from leaving, I should have tried harder.
