                                                                   MARIA'S P.O.V

  I can't believe he was following me. I had to make him stop. There was no way I'd let him know that now I lived here. God knows what might happen.

  I let him know that I knew what he was doing. He looked surprised. Well, I couldn't blame him for that. Dean had no idea about what was I. He had no idea that I was a caster, waiting for my claiming, and probably I was going dark for good.

  I was thinking of a way to make him go away. I didn't want to hurt anyone. That's why I left home. That's why I started living in this forest.

  I decided to tell him the truth. There was no other way he'd go away. If luck was by my side, then he'd get scared and run away. On the other hand he might not care about these things at all and stay with me. That was going to be a big trouble for both of us, but it was worth the shot.

  I had to tell him who I really was. There's another reason why I want to tell him everything about me. I couldn't keep it all inside of me. I had to let some things out.

  I knew a perfect place, where to do that. I knew where we had to go so I told him to follow me. In that moment the idea that he would follow me even in the end of the world, came into my mind.

  We finally arrived. It was very deep in the forest. I'm not sure if anyone else was in here before. This place was wonderful. It was a lake with a crystal clear water. It was formed from a beautiful waterfall. There were a lot of trees and everything looked so peaceful. Just the way I liked it.

 He was looking right into my eyes. I never felt comfortable with people looking me in the eyes. I was afraid they might find out something was different.

  -Sit. - I told him. He sat immediately. Soon after, I did the same.

 -Are you ready?- I asked him. I don't know why I did that stupid question. He nodded. I knew the answer already. To be honest there was no need to hear his answer. You didn't need any extra, caster powers to find out that he was eager to know all about me.

  -So???- Dean asked me.

 It wasn't that easy for me. I had to find out the right words.

 -My name is Maria Montserrat. My family's origin is from France. That's why I'm so good at it. My family is not like all the others. Million of years ago some people were chosen to be different. They gained some special powers.No one knows who gave them the powers in the beginning. All they know is that suddenly they woke up with different gifts, a new dimension, a new world only for them.

   Some used these powers for good, some used them for evil. They started writing different books about how to use these powers. Just like the people were already separated in good and evil, the books were separated also in good and evil.

  Our family was cursed from "The Book of Tears". No one knows who created it. We just know that the book never gives something without taking something else in return. Just like any other powerful book in our world. 

  Since from when that book was used from one of our ancestors, we have a curse upon our head. We will be claimed at our 16 birthday, if we'll go dark or light. We don't know what we'll be, but it is said that there are some signs showing what you'll turn into. - I told him everything. I don't know if he believed me or not. I didn't know if I wanted him to believe or not.

  He was confused. He just found out that his dreams were connecting him with a girl who's not normal.

  -What will you be?- he asked me.

 -I don't know.- I lied to him. I didn't want to scare him more than he was.

 -So that's all true??- he asked.

  I could tell that he was full of questions about them. I didn't know if I could answer them all.

 -What do you mean by all?- I asked him.

 I was just playing with him. I knew what he wanted to say. I just needed some time to find the right words to say to him.

 -The book?- Dean asked again.

 -Which one?- I asked again. Pretending that I didn't know what he was talking about.

 -Beautiful Creatures.- he said.

 I wasn't expecting him to say the title of the book that normally.

 -Yes.- I replied to him. I wasn't able to look at his face. I just couldn't stare into his eyes, like everything was OK, because it wasn't.

 He looked a little confused, but he wasn't doing a thing.

 -It's time for you to go.- I told him.

 -Why?- he said to me.

 I can't believe he was saying that. He had to go. He had to run far away from me.

 -You made a promise.- I reminded him.

 -All that you said doesn't sound like a good reason to leave.- Dean said simply.

 -It's not a good reason to leave??? - I asked him. I could feel myself getting angry, but I didn't care. I wanted him to stay away. It was going to be dangerous for both of us. He had no fault if everything went wrong.

 -No, it's not. - he said again. The calm on his voice was making me angrier than I thought. Why couldn't he understand? Why couldn't he leave?

 -You just don't get it. - I told him. In the same instant the rain started. I knew it was going to happen.

 -Don't you see it? - I told him after he noticed that the rain started. - It can get even worse.

 -Why?- he said.

 -Because I have the power to control the weather according to my feelings. I can control the elements. They're pretty much depended on how I feel.- I told him.

 I knew he was getting confused, but I didn't care. 

  -Why do you want me to leave so badly?- he asked.

 Why did I want him to leave me? To protect him. Did I really want him to leave??? Hell no. He seems like the only one who can understand me. He's the only one who's able to talk with me like a normal person.

 -Because I want to protect you.- I said to him.

 -But I'm seeing you in my dreams. You're seeing me in yours. We both know that's important. We both know that's not a little thing without importance.- he told me.

  -You should leave. - I told him.

 -It looks like the book. You know Ethan had dreams ...- he started saying, but I cut him off.

 -Nothing ever happens the same. - I told him. Now you have to go. It's getting late and I'm sure you don't want your nanny to start with her speeches.

 -How do you know ???- he asked.

 I didn't reply him. Instead I gave him a simple wink. I guess he got the message because he left without arguing.

 -Ok then. I guess I'll see you tomorrow at school.- he said to me.

 -Maybe you will, maybe you won't.- I told him.

 -Yeah yeah, right. Whatever you say. - he said to me. You could notice the sarcasm in his voice very easily.

 He waved at me and then he left without looking back. I thought I'd stay there a little more to clear my head a bit. The sun was back too.
