Savannah didn't look at him, but the puppy barked when she hugged her too tightly and she loosened her arms, wrapping an arm around Johnny's pillow instead.

"You think this is easy for me, Johnny? You think I want to do all of this? You think I want to piss you off, piss off the teachers, worry Eve and Sean? You think I have any idea how I'm supposed to tell the guy I love that I need him to be there because if I lose control of my emotions and my powers he's probably the only one that can stop me?! You think I wanted this? You think I don't sometimes wish I was just a normal girl like most of my friends?"

She stood up, ducking her head because she was trying not to let the tears fall. "I don't know how to cope or what to do with all of this and I'm sorry that I dumped all of this on you. And yeah, there's a chance that I wouldn't this if I thought it would cause too much trouble between me and everyone else here! I don't want you to feel like an outsider and I don't know what to do!"

Destiny jumped off the bed and went to dance around Savannah's legs, pawing at her.
