“He is not. He’s probably just trying to remember where he parked his car.” Aeden said.
“You’re kidding right? He stayed right next to you the whole time he was with our group. He looked like leaving your side was painful when he had to go talk to Chase’s group.” Tess said.
“And even then, he kept looking up every once in a while, to see where our group was.” Brenda said.
“I think you guys are reading way too much into this. He may have been near me all night but all he talked about was the lecture and the assignments that would be based on tonight.” Aeden said.
“Then why is he walking this way like he’s got something on his mind and he only wants to talk to you about it?” Brenda said.
“U huh sure.” Aeden said as she rolled her eyes.
“Hey, Aeden, can I talk to you for a minute?” Dean asked as he walked up to the group.
“Sure.” Aeden said as she turned to see her friends givin

So, for the next two days she dedicated herself to cleaning the house. Aeden had a maid of course but sometimes you just have to do things for yourself. And Sherry, her maid, followed her from room to room working with Aeden instead of re-cleaning after her. When it came to her office Sherry took a lunch break and allowed Aeden time to herself. Sherry usually only dusted the desk, changed the bed linens, and cleaned the adjoining bathroom. But she knew, after talking with Jordan, that Aeden might need to do a little on her own. So Aeden sat at her computer and scanned items inputting them into different files and backing everything up on a few different systems. She then took all the papers put them in files and then put them in a safe within a safe, just to make sure. Being a writer, she knew what could happen if certain papers got into the public. How damaging things could be and how things could be misused against you. It had happened once; it was a small letter she had w

“Did you stay living with your parents after the lawyers?” Grant asked. “Yes, I didn't move out until I was 20. Things calmed down after about 6 months. And when I turned 18 and had enough money I started getting estimates from contractors to build this place. Once it was finished I moved out.” Aeden said. “And about a year later Aeden had her first stalker and had the wall and guard station built.” Jordan said.

Dean didn’t know what to do. He sort of understood why talking about her ‘finances’, as Aeden had put it, would upset her. But he didn’t think it was really as big of a deal as she was making it out to be. He knew he had to get her to talk to him again. When he saw her last night, something had changed for him. He had always noticed her but watching her looking at the stars had been different, it was like he was finally really seeing her and he never wanted to see anyone else. He knew in that moment that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her and then he had blown it. She was so mad at him she had left him by himself at dinner and then wouldn’t talk to him on the way back to her house. Normally he would talk to a couple of his friends and then make a decision but this time he needed to talk to just his best f

When Aeden woke up the morning of her class with Dean she was calm. She had made her peace with what had happened and had decided to just let him go. She knew it might hurt for a while but like everything else she had lost in her life it would be forgotten. She kept telling herself that she needed to relax and act like nothing had happened, it was the only way she would get through the class. She also kept saying that the first day is always the hardest. So, she got up, got dressed, had her breakfast and grabbed her books. When she got to the garage she stopped and looked at her cars. Aeden owned every Ford Mustang body style there was. Each one was in the original color for its year and all were running. Her favorite was the 1964 ½ Cherry Red Original Mustang. It was the first of the line and she had found it in a junk yard and had it restored. Taking the restoration class at the college was how she first saw Dean. He had been in the class as a student so she didn't get to talk to

OK, what did Lex say again? When Aeden looked in the mirror while she was “there” she could talk to her. Alright dude, go look in the mirror. I really, really need to talk to you. Come on!! Drink another, what is that? Beer, huh, I like it. Drink another one and then go to the bathroom. It’s on commercial now go take a piss. Now lookup!!! “Dean, dude you gotta help me.” Kar said. “What the Fuck!!” Dean said. “OK, I’ll give you the short version. We are connected, I’m not sure how but basically, I’m you in a different world. Like a parallel universe. Are wives are also. Lex told me that she and Aeden talk this way so I figured it would work the same with us. Sorry to spring this on you man but I need your help.” Kar explained. “I think I’ve had too many.” Dean said and splashed some water on his face. “No, you haven’t, trust me, I know how this sounds but if you ask your wife after we talk then you’ll understand.” Kar said. “OK, I’ll bi

“So, what do I say next time he, Kar, talks to me? And do you know when Lex is there?” Dean asked Aeden. “I’m not really sure. He should definitely apologize first and it needs to be sincere. It can’t just be an ‘I’m sorry I fucked up but I don’t really know why.’ And yes, I know when Lex is there.” Aeden said. “How? How do you know when she is there?” Dean asked. “It’s like a weird nudge in my brain. Not a headache or pressure or anything. It’s really hard to explain…………. It’s kind of like when you touch my temple, its light but it’s on the inside.” Aeden explained. “Huh, I don’t think I’ve ever felt anything like that before. I also wasn’t trying to feel it though.” Dean said. “Well, maybe you should pay more attention.” Aeden said. She could feel the anger rising again. This was the one part of the pregnancy that had been hardest. She didn’t mean to get mad or cry or fall asleep at random times. It just kept happening; the doctor said it wa

“I think Karsix was trying to contact me again before you went into the bedroom.” Dean said. “Oh really? Maybe I should try to contact Lex and see what was up?” Lex asked. “Yea. You see if she knows what he wanted, if not I'll try to get a hold of Kar.” Dean said. So Aeden went into the bathroom to see if she could talk with Lex. “Lex, I need to talk to you.” Aeden said to her reflection. Lex felt the familiar nudge and quickly went up to her bedroom to find a mirror. “I Aeden.” Lex said holding the hand mirror up and looking at Aeden. “HI. How are you feeling?” Aeden asked. “Good, you?” Lex asked. “I'm good, tired but you know, Dean said he talked to Kar today.” Aeden said. “Yea, Kar told me. Is Dean ok? I know it was hard for both of us when this started.” Lex said. “He's good. He was wondering why Kar wanted to talk to him earlier? We needed some alone time.” Aeden said smiling. “Oh, Kar just wanted t

Lex sighed and ate another apple before explaining. “The first time I was able to communicate with Aeden was when she looked into a mirror and saw my reflection. It scared her and she asked who the hell was I. At that point I realized I couldn't hear her thinking like I usually did and that she was actually talking to and seeing me. Since that time, we have talked to each other through a mirror. The first time Kar talked to Dean was also through a mirror, earlier today.” “Oh.” Shex and Mera said. They looked as if they were fascinated and scared all at the same time. “What's wrong?” Lex asked. “Nothing.” They both said. “Really? You know we can tell when you two are hiding something from us right?” Kar said. “And that it upsets me when you do.” Lex added. With a long look and a sigh Mera finally said, “There has been nothing in the Histories about being able to See your Other. We aren't even sure how they communicated with
