One breath and then another. Ruby was always afraid of becoming like Clancy. She knew that after everything, some people said sheβd gotten cold. She didnβt want to be cold, she didnβt want to turn into Clancy. But sheβd held people close to her heart to make sure that wouldnβt happen. Here, she didnβt have Liam or Chubs, not even Zu. There werenβt any children who needed her to rescue them. She was alone, and feeling adrift. A hand dropped onto her shoulder, forcibly dragging her out of the memories sheβd been replaying of better times, and she reacted harshly, shoving them back. βDonβt touch me!β She was already gearing up to use her powers, not that she wanted to. But she had to protect herself.Β
βsorry βbout that. my bad.β liam smiled slightly, hands held up in surrender as his eyes met hers. a hint of confusion found its way onto his features as he looked at her, brows furrowing slightly. she didnβt look familiar, and yet he couldnβt shake the feeling that she was someone he was supposed to know. there was no way he could have forgotten a girl with such a strong presence. sheβd spoken three words and already, liam knew he wouldnβt want to get on her bad side.Β βdo i--have we met?β he stumbled over his words, not-so-smooth southern charmer that he was.
