BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR
Prologue
"What the hell are you
doing?" he growled.
She spun around, dropping the
object in her hand. "You don’t want to interfere with this," she
stated boldly, probably more boldly then she felt.
"Herm--Rose, what the hell
is going on?" he asked, almost saying her name.
She turned to him, her face
flushed. She could not lie to him, after what they had become, after all that
they had gone through. But there was no other way. His face looked smooth, but
beyond that she could see desperation, the wish to know, fear, pride…
"I-I…" She couldn’t
even say it. "The ending needs to change." She knew it sounded
stupid, but it was the only way she could say it. The ending did need to
change.
"But you said--" he
started.
"I lied," she said
smoothly.
"Why?" he asked, his
eyes growing dark.
"I wasn’t ever supposed to
tell you. We were meant to be sent back. It’s our destiny." She knew how
cheesy it sounded, but like before, it was the only thing she could say. And it
was true. It was their destiny.
