Storm
I desided to look for Winter in the gym and did not find him. I saw a door and thought he might have gone in there but once I entered he was not there. I was about to leave when I herd my name.
"Yes...Storm Heaven as in the Storm Heaven?here?...are you sure...okay I will keep an eye out for her and report back...bye."
All I could do was stop in my tracks. Some guy at this church knew who I was and was just informed by someone who also knew me.
Oh shit, if the calvent found me I'm screwed, I need to get out of here fast.
I started to walk to the guy on the phone when I tripped over something. As I fall I am about to yell when someone's hand clovers my mouth and stops my fall. I start to struggle against his hand and tried to bit him. I panic thinking it's one of that guys friends.
"Shhh," he whispers in my ear. "Don't struggle. I just saved your life, that guy is very dangerous."
I start to move around struggling. I landed on Winter, the one I stared at as if he was eye candy.
I look at him surprised yet questioning his words, how does he know about this guy being dangerous?
I fell fear then something comes in my soul and calm me down.
I look at him in awe. Did he have gifts like I do? Of course not, he has a family and a normal life. Only people who have these so called gifts were born and raised in one of two labs.
He opens his mouth and leans so his lips are almost touching my ear and my heart speeds up. "That guy on the phone said your name like you are famous. Why?"
He did? Oh yeah he did, but how long had this boy been here to be able to hear that guy say my name?
I come out of my trance and see him still staring at me waiting for an answer.
"He didn't say my name, my name is Storm Andrews not Storm Heaven." I state lying through my teeth.
He looks at me and glares, obviously knowing I'm lying.
I sigh, "He was talking to someone who I need to stay away and for the famous part, I can't tell you but it's not a good famous. I have question, what is your last name?"
Please don't say Wood,please don't say Wood. I repeat in my head.
"River." I let out a breath I did not know I was holding. Of course it isn't him, in a way I hoped it was, he's gone forever and I miss him so much.
" I thought you would say Wood." I say by accident. He suddenly goes stiff behind me after I say that.

Winter
How does she know my name? That's all that's running through my brain.
"W..what?" I Stutter out.
"Hmm?" She asks, " I thought you would say Winter Wood. Do you know him or something? Of course you don't, he died a few years back. From where I'm from, he had a hard life, I would have hated being him.
If I didn't already hate myself." She said her last sentence under her breath.
I was right. I know her I identity but she does not know mine.
"No I don't know him I just know someone named wood. Sorry, and by the way don't hate yourself, they won't find you as long as you stay away from me."
She looks at me with giant eyes and runs her hand down the side of her face.
"I don't know if I can." She answers in barely even a whisper or sound.
"Yes you must," I answer, my voice with a hint of husk in it. I know what she means, now that we are together our powers are stronger and we will suffer from withdrawal if we are apart for too long.
She goes limp in my arms and I carry her down the stairs once I hear what she heard. A scraping sound on the wall.
A guy I don't recognize walked past us but not before saying a few words.
"Oh and miss Heaven, Mister Wood, I would mind my own business even if it's about you."
-----------------------
"You need to change so he doesn't recognize you!" I command her.
I see that she has given up, " Won't matter, I grew my hair out and died it red then put colored contacts in and had therapy done on my lips to make them fuller and changed my whole wardrobe. Is there anything else I cam change?"
No wonder I did not recognize her. She had to do what I had to do, change to a new person to protect herself. If I hadn't, she would have recognized me too. We were, as the scientists put it, made for each other. That was probably the pull we felt in the beginning.
Wait. They also made my brother William for her too so she would have a choice. Great. Me or my brother. My brother likes Elena, we've both dated many people but both of us have had the Heaven sisters in our hearts since the beginning. If I feel that way, I know William might as well.
"We all aren't who we look like, you know me better then you think, just try to remember." I say then pause for a second "Oh yeah, you forgot to put in your contacts," I finally say then, even though it hurts me, I walk away. I still left a part of my soul with her and kept a piece of her soul with me. If something or someone hurts her I will know, just as she will know for me. Our connection is so strong that withdrawal could happen as soon as 24 hours.
Now to keep my brother and Brook away from Storm. This day just keeps getting longer and its not even 10 am yet.
