Can You Hear Me? (SetoSorcerer) (Book 1)

Chapter 6

I wake up but don't open my eyes, I still feel the warm person cuddling into me. I smile and open my eyes, his face is very close to mine, but his hood covered his eyes.

He really doesn't want any of the other guys to see what he looks like. I lift myself out of bed, climbing over the sleeping sorcerer, and pick up my favourite book, the one Harvey read before he saw me.

I sat down and started to read, the memories coming back to me bit by bit.

~**Flashback**~

I sat on my bed, well, Jordan's bed. I was sleeping on the chair. Jordan was sitting in front of me, staring up at me with his big brown eyes. I knew how he saw me. Apparently children under the age of 5 can see spirits. I believe that statement for obvious reasons.

Today, my little Jordan was moving away, for a better start, at a new and better school. Without me. This is the last time I will ever see him.

"Will you miss me?" Jordan said, his voice high pitched and child like. Well... He is 5.

"Yes, Jordan. I will miss you very, very much." I replied, trying to reach out and grab his hand. But my pale hand just went right through his tiny one.

"Will we ever see eachother again?" Jordan asked. I put my head in my hands.

"If you remember me, you can return to the house when you're old enough and see me again." I replied. Knowing well that he will not remember me. He's too young to remember.

"I will remember you, when I'm a big boy and have a job, I will buy this house and live with you." Jordan said, jumping up and down on the bed.

"...Sure, I look forward to it." I said, looking down at the bed, I couldn't cry, I wasn't able to, but if I could. I would be.

"Jordan, we're going! Come downstairs."

"I will come back for you." He said. Tears started to form in his eyes as he talked.

"You think I will forget, but I won't, I will come back. I will see you again."

I reached out and tried to write the tears from his face, but they stayed there, undisturbed by my touch.

The door opened and Jordan's mum walked in, growing confused when she saw Jordan crying.

"C'mon sweetheart, we're leaving now." She said calmly, picking him up and carrying him out of the room.

Jordan waved goodbye to me as they left, his face full of sadness. I waved back, my emotions stayed the same.

I had no emotions, I don't feel anything. And I tell myself that I'm guilty for that.

I listen as the door closes for the last time. Never to be opened again for 20 years...

~**Flashback End**~

I was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. A boy walked in, he was already dressed.

He wore a red and black checkered hoodie, and blue jeans. I recognised him as Mitch, the person who told Harvey to stay in this room.

He started to tip-toe, being very quiet so he couldn't wake anybody up, luckily, I had already placed my book on the table when he looked my way so he didn't suspect me. I don't see why he would anyway.

He started to slowly move towards Harvey, his hand outstretched. I then realised what he was going to do.

I carefully made my way towards the bed and stood where Mitch was about to go. I held my arm out. He walked into my arm and went straight through it.

Drat!

I ran over to the door and opened it, causing Mitch to turn around. As he walked over to close it. I ran back over to Harvey and poked him, trying to wake him up.

I poked him in the face, causing him to open his eyes and look at me, I moved away quickly as Mitch closed the door and headed back towards him.

I backed away and watched. Harvey sat up and turned around, his eyes landing on Mitch, who froze, standing in the middle of the room.

"What on earth are you doing in here?" Harvey asked.

Mitch shook his head.

"Um... Nothing."

He opened the door and ran out of the room as fast as he could. Yeah... totally not suspicious in any way.

I walked over and closed the door, turning to face Harvey. He sat on the edge of the bed. His face full of confusion of the event that just happened.

I sighed and explained.

"He tried to lift your hood up and see you while you were asleep. I opened the door so he would turn around and close it. Then I woke you up."

Harvey shook his head in disapproval and stood up. He walked over to me and took my hands in his, which caught me by surprise.

"Sorry, Mitch has always been the curious one, he's always wanted to know what my name is and what I look like. I'm surprised he hasn't tortured the rest of Team Crafted to get it out of them. Even though it's only Ty that knows."

I nodded, understanding why it happened. I looked up into his brown eyes.

"Thank You Crystal, if he found out what I look like. I don't know what will happen, I may have to leave. But thanks to you, that didn't happen."

I smiled as I looked at him, I felt something forming in my stomach area, it felt weird. I was feeling something again...another emotion.

I couldn't explain the feeling though, but I only got it when I looked at him. Excitement was mixed in with the feeling.

He looked down, and I realised we had both been looking into eachothers eyes for ages. Holding eachothers hands.

"Um, well, I'll go talk to Mitch. I'll be back up soon ok?" He said, scratching the back of his head.

He quickly got changed and started to head out of the door.

Before he did, he grabbed my face and kissed me on my forehead. Sending electricity flowing through my body.

He smiled and ran downstairs, I just stood there, in shock from what happened. The feeling at the pit of my stomach grew larger.

And then I finally realised what the feeling was, what I was feeling towards Harvey.

It was love...
