Fallen (crawford collins fanfic)

chapter 16

I wake up with crawfords arms wrapped around me. I get up slowly removing crawfords arms so that I dont wake him. Before I can make it out of my room my phone starts ringing. I run over to it and anwser.

"Hello?" I whisper into the phone.

"Hey! Hilly your finally awake. Me and the guys went out. I would have woken you up, but I decided to let you sleep in." Its emma.

"were are you?" I ask.

"Im not sure. Me and the guys are just exploring your world" great. This should be good.

"Please dont do anything stupid and dont use any magic we cant expose our powers and just act normal." I cant believe they went out.

"Bye I gotta go!" She laughs and hangs up.

Oh, no. Should I be woried? I mean alex is there he is mature enough to do the right thing and keep them out of trouble. Maybe I should be worried. Crawford was right we cant just go around acting like we're normal because we're not.

I turn to look at an already awake crawford.

"Who was it?" He asks.

"Emma. Her and the guys went out." I respond.

"Why would you let them leave?"

"I didnt they were already gone when I woke up"

"They cant just leave whenever they want. They dont know how to contain their powers. They come from a world where you can use your powers all the time and if they think thats ok to do here we're going to be in serious problems."

"Calm down. They'll be fine"

" how do you know?"

"I just do"

I get up when I hear the front door open and close. I rush out to see emma and the guys.

"Whats wrong with you!?!" I yell.

"What do you mean?" Alex asks confused.

"I mean you shouldnt be walking around thinking its ok." I say.

"Calm down. We were just having fun, and nothing bad happened" he replies.

I let out a sigh "well maybe next time you can tell me you're going out"

He nods and we walk into the living room where everyone was.

We talk for a while and they explain to me what they were doing and that they were careful not to expose us.

It felt weird knowing I wasn't normal. All my life I thought everyone around me was just not as talented as me. Well know that im older I understand more things and everything......well almost everything makes sense now. I still don't understand what happened to my mother. Most of my past is very confusing.

I hope I'll understand more later on. I will have to learn how to control my powers just like everyone else, but first I need to know what exactly I'm able to do. I'm not sure if I really want to find out. I rather continue acting like I belong here. I've done it for 16 years. How hard could it be to do it for a couple years more?

"I'll be back" I tell Alex.

"Where are you going?" He asks.

"Just walking" I say grabbing my phone and walking out the door.

"Be careful!" I hear him yell behind me.

Finally, I'm out of that house. I walk away from the house and keep walking until I hear movement around me. I look up from my phone and see a guy standing not to far from me.

"Hello, hillary" he grins.

"How do you know my name?" I ask.

"Oh, everyone knows you. Well, everyone in the realms."

Great, know I'm trending throughout the realms. Hopefully my dad doesn't know where I am, but if a complete stanger knows where I live then I doubt my dad doesn't. 

"How?" I ask.

"When you helped Emma escape the witches realm people began to start talking about how amazing it is that there is still hope. And then the guys were never seen again so we all suspected they were with you." He explains.

"Hope for what? I hope they all know I'm not going back to the realms." I am so confused right now.

"I knew you would say that, but you aren't safe here either. Your dad has sent people looking for you."

"Are you one of them?"

"oh, no. I'm actually here to help you."

"Thanks, but no thanks. I can take care of myself."

"Sure you can"

"Who sent you anyways?"

"Im not aloud to say. I was just told to warn you and thats it. There are people who can help you, but their in the realms. Their the rebels and they can help you know evrything you need to know. For now we will send people to help out but this wont last long so you better hurry and get to the rebels." He says then disappears.

" what do you mean by 'we'? Who is 'we'!?!" I yell, but he was gone. I sigh and sit down with my back against a tree.
