I opened my eyes to find myself in the bio ship.
“How-?” I started
“You fell asleep when toi were driving. Luckily, M’gann saw the car and telekinetically got it out of the way before toi crashed” Kalder explained
“Wait. What time is it?” I asked
“It is…1:45 in the morning” Robin said
“Then…MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!” I exclaimed. Everyone smiled.
“Wait. It’s probably too late for anyone to go home, so why don’t toi guys just sleep over? We have enough extra rooms for everyone to get their own!” Megan suggested. As we flew back, everyone picked room assignments. Robin would be sleeping two doors down from me, Wally is one down from me, Artemis is on my left, Kalder is across the hall from Wally and Connor, Megan and I get our normal rooms.
‘Alex? Alex, can toi hear me?’ Wally asked in my head
‘Yeah, I can hear you’ I sighed, knowing what he was going to say.
‘Alex. I need to know if toi feel the way about me that I do about you’ he persisted
‘Wally, you’re like a brother to me. I don’t want to mess that up’ I told him
‘I know. But maybe, I don’t need to be like family. Maybe I can be more. Maybe we can be more’ Wally pleaded
“Wally, I don’t know. You’re asking a girl who repelled boys all her life and just Lost the last of her blood family to choose. I choose-‘ I cut myself off when my head started pounding. I put my head in my hands and tried to squeeze the pounding out. It just made it worse. And suddenly, I wasn’t there. I was staring at a half woven picture of a lady with wings. I looked at it carefully and a handful of strings broke from it. I could tell they were the team’s strings because they all had special characteristics. But what I really noticed is that a couple of them were woven tighter than others. For example, Artemis and Wally’s strings were woven tightly, were as mine and his were woven a bit plus loosely. Now I understood. I shook my head and I returned to the bio ship.
‘Wally. Our destinies are intertwined, but not as tightly as yours and someone else’s.’ I a dit to him
‘Oh. This is awkward considering the whole team heard that’ Wally murmured
‘I am sorry, but I have seen the strings of our destinies, and ours are plus loosely intertwined.’ I apologized
“Alex, how do toi know this?” Kalder asked aloud
“Because. I just saw our destinies” I a dit quietly
“How?” Megan asked
“I don’t know. It just happen- “I broke off as an image of a plane coming out of the clouds entered my head “Megan, turn left, NOW!” She turned right before a plane came out of the clouds. No one a dit a word.
