Secret Revealed
Adam and his friends hid somewhere so they could get a glimpse of what was going on between Evan and Laura and it was a shock to them when Laura kissed Evan.
Adam stared at Emerald, and he could see the anger and jealousy in her eyes while the rest of the team was stunned when Evan pulled Laura close and deepened the kiss. No one was expecting that, but in this world we live in, we are to expect. the unexpected.
Like being awakened from a trance, Laura quickly pulled away from him. She had no idea what she had just done, she couldn't even look at the guy in his eyes. She decided now would be the best time to flee, but before she could carry out her plan, Evan stopped her.
"Where do you think you're going?". Evan asked, holding her hand. Laura didn't see that coming.
"Um.... i... I....". No words were coming out.
"You can't just go around kissing people and leaving them dumbfounded at least you've got to give them some kind of explanation". Evan said.
"Let go of me". Laura said, pulling her hand away from his grip, but seriously, dragging with a vampire? What are the odds she's even going to win?. "Stop making this feel like I'm the only one at fault here, you...". She pointed to his chest. "... Deepened the kiss given to you by a stranger now tell me, why would you do that?".
"Oh! so now you're passing the blame on me, right?". Evan said. "Well, anyways I deepened the kiss because your lips were so soft and tempting, I couldn't resist it. So now tell me, why did you kiss me?".
Why did he even have to answer that? She asked herself. "Can you let go of my hand first? In case you don't know, you're holding onto it tight and it's hurting".
"Fine". Evan said. The moment he let go of her hand, Laura ran as fast as her legs could carry her without looking back.
"I hope never to cross path with him ever". She said as she ran.
Emerald was the first to come out of her hiding as she approached Evan who was stunned by the girl he was with a few seconds ago. Emerald was so angry not because the girl kissed him but because he accepted the kiss and kissed her back. "what was that all about?". She asked folding her arms as the rest of the team came to join them, waiting to hear some answers.
Evan decided not to explain himself to anyone but Emerald kept on bombarding him with questions to the point he just had to say something, anything to get him out of this awkward position.
"Tell me, is this your way of protecting her?". Emerald said as Evan looked at her and he could see the hatred, anger, and jealousy but he couldn't care any less.
"I don't owe you any explanation, Emmy". He said.
"but you owe us an explanation". She said as Evan looked at the rest of the team and seriously they needed some explanations too. "so you see, this isn't about me".

Reed looked at his mother- Catherine who was sleeping on the sofa in the sitting room as different thoughts came into his head. His mother told him his father abandoned him when she was pregnant with him and because she couldn't live with the shame, she had to travel here to raise him and give him a better life but somehow he wishes there were more answers. He wishes to listen to his father's side of the story but after 22 years, the man hadn't come looking for him. That made the hatred he felt for his father grow stronger.
His thoughts went to Laura, there's just something about her that draws him closer to her and something about her that pulls him away from her. And he couldn't understand why. His thoughts drifted to the necklace.
"Why did she have that on?". He asked himself as he paced the sitting room. "could it be she's also a vampire-like him?". He shook his head because he knew chances of her being a vampire were rare. Not possible. "then why?". He asked himself but he knew he'd only be getting assumptions if he continue asking himself. "I should better go ask her". He was about to leave when he remembered how he fled and left her alone. He didn't keep the promise he made to her sister. "Would she even talk to me?" was only one way to find out. He said to himself as he left the house.

Jones- Laura's dad was in his room going through some of his stuff when his eyes went to a picture he took with his former girlfriend that left him without saying a word to him. The moment she found out he was a vampire, she ran away without a trace.
Madeline had no idea what her husband is and he is too scared to tell her, afraid she would just leave as his other woman did. He decided to take this secret to his grave. Jones knew he wouldn't get destroyed by the sun but why is he still scared of going outside? Could it be that he is hiding something? Or could people be looking for him?
"honey". His wife called as he quickly hid all his stuff as fast as he could with his powers. "are you in?". Madeline asked as she opened the door only to find her husband in a dancing position. The first thing she did was burst into laughter. "it's been a while you danced". she said as she went closer to him.

"
it's been a while since we danced". He said pulling his wife close as he gently placed his hands on her waist while her arms circled his neck.
The music "how would you feel by Ed Sheeran" was playing and they were both dancing to the tune.
"honey". She called as she looked into his eyes. When she saw that his eyes gave her a signal to talk, she continued. "is everything OK?". She asked.
Stunned by the question, Jones raised an eyebrow in confusion. "why did you ask that?".
Madeline pulled out of his arms as she sat on the bed. "you're different". She said. "it's like I don't even know you anymore. What's going on?" "sweetheart, there's nothing wrong. Everything is fine".
"Everything is not fine and you know it". She exploded. "you don't take me out on dates anymore. Never for once have you come to the shop to check out how the business is doing. You don't take the kids out... You've never taken them out. We have never had family time outdoors like every other normal family Jones and you're telling me nothing?". She said. It was like everything she had been keeping in, just burst right out. "The kids are hurt even though they don't say it, I am hurt too. I try so hard to convince myself that everything is fine and even if they are not, you'd tell me but I've waited for so long and I have had enough. So tell me, what's the hell is going on?". She asked once again.
Jones knew it was time to reveal the truth. Despite the fact he wanted to take his secret to the grave so badly, he loved his family more. But how was he going to tell her? And even if he did tell her, how would she feel? Maybe he should just continue hiding the truth and take the secrets to the grave as he said earlier.
Madeline stood waiting for answers but none was coming. She looked at her husband and it was like he wasn't ready to spill the beans so she decided it would be best to just leave. As she moved close to the door about to open it, Jones spoke.
"I'm a vampire". He said as Madeline stopped, her hand still on the handle of the door. Did she hear that right? No, she probably heard something else like a 'Van' and a 'Hire'. She turned so she could hear him say whatever it is he just said. "I'm a Vampire, Madeline". He said as her eyes opened wide in shock.
