Author's note!: Okay so a lot of people asked me for a sequel and I originally wasn't going to write one, but I decided, what the hell! It might be a little OOC because I haven't read Darkest Powers in a while, nor have I written in Chloe's point of view but I gave it a shot! Let me know what you guys think! Thank you.

Disclaimer: I do not own Darkest powers or anything tied to it.

I walked outside idly, looking at the trees that surrounded the house we were currently living in. They stretched tall, blocking out most of the view of our neighbors houses, which was perfectly fine with the two werewolves, the witch, the sorcerer, and the necromancer.

We had a difficult time explaining everything to my father, but after a while he stopped asking questions and told me his new philosophy was to go with the flow. Unfortunately, to him 'the flow' meant treating us like normal teenagers. And what do normal teenagers do? That's right folks, normal teenagers go to school. Tomorrow was going to be the grand unveiling of the freak teens in Richmond High School, and let me tell you, we were less than excited.

Crunching in the grass sounded behind me, and I knew all the noise was just a polite courtesy. Derek could move with a stunning silence despite his larger (and more muscular, if you don't mind me saying) body.

"Are you worried about school?" he rumbled, falling in step with me as I circled the house.

I shook my head, smiling up at him. "It's not the school I'm thinking about. It's more all of us in the school that worries me."

He nodded thoughtfully, not giving me the smile I was hoping for.

After we started living with my dad undercover (different last names basically) in a state that no one ever visited (Nebraska), Derek and I had a lot less time to spend alone together. Dad was always watching us, now that he knew we were together, and would seemingly 'need me for something' whenever Derek and I were talking or hanging out. So far our relationship hadn't moved forward, and we didn't talk about it either. Derek certainly wasn't trying to bring it up.

"Well, as long as we watch out for people who recognize us, we should be okay." Derek flashed a quick smile before opening the back door of the house for me, following after I entered.

I was curious, and a little afraid, to see how Cade reacted in school. He was adamant about not going, but Dad had said if he wanted to live with us he had to go. Cade didn't react to that well, and had disappeared for some time, but came back in the end. I also was worried about people recognizing me from all of the air time I had gotten on T.V.

"Chloe!" Dad said, beaming at me as I walked in the kitchen. "Are you all ready for tomorrow?"

I noticed that he ignored Derek, and I couldn't really blame him. Derek had been moody lately, well more moody than usual, and it certainly was a scary sight to see.

"Yeah Dad, I guess." I said forcing a smile. "How long are we going to be staying here?"

Dad had refused to talk anymore about leaving, and that made me think that maybe staying with him wasn't the safest idea. After all, the Edison Group was still at bay, and I knew they were going to be looking for us. We wouldn't be that hard to find either, if something bad happened at the school.

"Leave? Let's not worry about that now. Just get a good night sleep to rest up for your new school."

Derek and I trudged up the stairs, giving each other a quick glance before turning down our respective hallways and heading for our rooms. The boys were on one side of the hall, while the girls were on the other. Cade's room was positioned as far as possible from Derek's, while Simon's was the one right next to it.

"Well, tell me you aren't excited?"

I looked up to see Tori leaning against the doorframe of her room, arms crossed and face happy. She had been up beat ever since she found out we were going to be leading semi normal lives. Well, as normal as our lives could get at the moment.

"I could be more excited, to be completely honest," I said lightly, trying not to start a fight with her. Even though she was in a good mood, that didn't mean she was incapable of being a total bitch.

Tori sniffed, a frown coming on. "Well, at least there will be some cute boys. And your dad was nice enough to give me money for new clothes! Cute right?" she flashed an outfit before I had the chance to step by her.

I nodded, slipping past as I forced a smile. "It's great Tori. I'm glad you're excited."

I dodged into my room and shut my door before she realized that I really didn't care about her new clothes or cute boys. I wasn't in the mood for one of her fights.

After flopping on the bed with the light out I sighed. School? After all we had been through? We were fricking magical, and we had to go to school? What was my dad thinking?

I rolled over, trying to squelch my anger, knowing that it was unjust. Dad was just trying to be a good parent, the only way he knew how. I sighed again, kicking my sheets off the bed. We were going to have to watch our surroundings carefully, the Edison Group was sure to be close behind. Tori would like to believe that we could live a safe happy life, but I knew that as long as the Edison Group was still functioning, we would be in danger.

"Chloe?"

I jerked up, looking around for Cade. I knew it was him; Derek was trying to be respectful to my dad so he wouldn't dare sneak into my room at night. My suspicions were confirmed as Cade walked forward and plopped down on the edge of my bed, leaning close to me.

"Are you really going to put up with this 'school' thing?" He asked, green eyes glinting.

I frowned at him. He had asked me this at least a million times after he showed up again. "Yes Cade," I answered, like always, "I am. At least to humor my dad. I realize that we aren't safe, but I think we should wait to make our move."

Cade scowled, glaring at me. "You know my offer. We could be safe."

I turned my head, looking down at the pillow in my lap. His offer. For some reason he thought running off together would be safer than staying with the rest of the group. He had made it clear every time we talked that he wanted to run away, just me and him. That way we would be more 'under the radar' and he could protect me. We would go somewhere far away and live a life of peace. As if. And why, I had to wonder, did he think I would run away from my friends to spend a life of solitude with him?

"I don't think running away together is the safest option right now. Safety in numbers Cade; we're your new pack. Get used to it." I said, tossing the pillow behind me and landing on it with a thump. I closed my eyes, hoping he would take the hint and leave.

I felt the bed move as he slid closer, leaning in towards my face. I opened my eyes to glare at him, he knew damn well that I was with Derek, but the emotion in his gaze stole my words.

"We could be our own pack Chloe," he whispered in my ear.

I shivered as he stood, receding into the darkness by the window, making his exit into the night. Come on Chloe, pull yourself together.

I rolled over, pressing the pillow down over my head in attempts to block out all other sound, trying to fight the blush that rose to my cheeks.
