Chapter Ten: Revealed

Chase's P.O.V

The following month after our first date was the best. Adam and I had no school and we spent it with each other all day and night. Thankfully the rooms are sound proof and no one heard us during the night.

However, good things don't last and today we start school again. I brush my teeth and look at my exhausted reflection. My eyes dull and hazy. No matter how much I sleep and take naps I'm always tired lately.

Adam reassured me that Caitlyn was lying about the whole school knowing about my secret crush on Adam. Not that it mattered now, between us that is.

I walk out a bit sluggish and watch as Adam grabs his bag.

"Why do you take that?" I ask with a yawn.

"What?"

"You're bag," I point at it.

"Because we need it for school," he replies confused.

"No...I mean why do you take it if it's empty?"

"Makes me feel...professional in a way," he laughs.

"Hm...can we stay home?"

"Chase, it's been a while. Though your cuts were healed, you lost too much blood and had to recover for a month. Big D thinks we should return. There's no problem with me staying but you..." he trails off.

I narrow my eyes and glare at him, but I what?

You are smart and amazing and have a great future...

I sigh, you are my future.

Chase, I still want you to graduate.

"I will...I promise. I'll take online courses," I respond.

"I want you by my side," he smirks.

I roll my eyes and wrap my arms around his neck. We stare at each other with love and adoration.

"You're tired," he comments.

"Just a bit," I shrug.

"We should ask Big D if it's normal after everything," he frowns.

"I'm fine," I promise.

He kisses me softly. Sweetly. Gently.

"I don't want you to worry," I smile.

"I will, no matter what you say," he smirks.

"I tried," I bury my face in the crook of his neck.

"You did but now we have to go," he tries to pull away.

I hold him tighter and nod.

"Just...a bit..."

"Com'on let's go," he picks me up and I wrap my legs around his waist.

I close my eyes and try my best not to fall asleep but I give up.

When I wake up, Adam and I are somewhere I don't recognize. I raise my head from my comfy spot and look around. My head is killing me and I fall back in Adam's embrace.

"You okay?" I feel his voice rumble through his chest.

"My head hurts," I answer honestly.

He would find out either way.

"What time is it?"

"Half past seven," he replies.

"Almost first period," I sigh.

He moves and I realize I was on his lap with his arms wrapped around me protectively. His chest my personal pillow.

"Don't move so much," I complain.

Suddenly we hear commotion from the halls. Adam helps me up and we quietly make our way to the stair case by the entrance where everyone seems to be gathered.

"Dear diary..."

My eyes grow wide as I stare at the black book in Caitlyn's hand. The other holding the megaphone close to her mouth as she reads. Eyes of shock turn to stare at me. My heart starts racing.

"Oh. What's this? Top Secret?"

No...No!

"First entry. Mr. Davenport thought it a good idea to write my thoughts in this journal," she pauses, "more like a diary."

Students burst out laughing around. Bree and Leo hide by the lockers and our eyes lock. I look at them pleadingly. But it's too late.

"Adam, Bree and I aren't humans. We're not normal. We're anything but. We're bionic humans... Adam is strength and Bree is speed. I'm smarts but that's pathetic isn't it? I always grew up hating my ability. It isn't anything useful. To others we might be monsters...but we're not. Yet we're not like them either," she slows down.

Students stare at us in shock and...fear.

No...I didn't...I didn't-

Chase calm down. Deep breaths, okay? We need to get out of here.

Bree super speeds to retrieve my diary and everyone is screaming in terror as a gust of wind knocks them down.

"Call 911! Call the feds!" someone yells.

"Adam, Chase, Leo!" Bree calls.

"Scram! So what? They can tear you apart," Principal Perry shouts.

I'm glad she's defending us with good intentions but that only inspires more fear in the students.

Don't faint on me now.

I look at Adam and he smiles kindly. I notice he's supporting most of my weight.

Let's get out of here.

I nod numbly and we follow Bree and Leo back home.

When we arrive Mr. Davenport is already gathering our belongings.

"There's a secret warehouse by the beach Adam and Chase went. You guys will go there until things cool down," he says sternly.

How did...?

I informed him, Adam answers.

He grabs our duffle bags quickly.

"What about you?" Tasha asks worriedly.

"I'm the mastermind behind all of this. I'll talk to them and convince them you aren't dangerous. Now go," he says.

Reluctantly we leave behind our life and the place we call home. This isn't happening. It can't be happening.

When we arrive at the empty house I collapse. I feel strong arms catch me but after it's darkness.

Adam's P.O.V

As we go in the creepy cold new place Chase passes out. I hold his limp body to mine and feel his shallow breathing.

"Is he okay? What happened?" Tasha panics.

"He's fine just passed out," I answer.

"Let's choose our rooms. It seems like we're going to be here a while," Leo suggests.

I nod and pick up Chase. I carry him to a room at the end of the hall. Gently I place him on the bed. I look around and everything smells new, it's so clean.

I look back to my sleeping lover and sigh. I promised not to do this but if I let him relapse he could hurt himself badly.

I take a deep breath and I'm temporarily blinded. Soon I hear his thoughts and they're not good.

This is my fault. Caitlyn was right. I shouldn't be here. I should've died...I should've died.

"Fuck.." I curse quietly.

I slip in the bed and pull him to me tightly. He immediately snuggles closer to my warmth.

I'm such a mistake.

"Chase," I shake him lightly.

He groans and stares up at me.

"No you are not," I glare.

He blinks for a minute before comprehending what I just said.

"But I am...If I hadn't been so weak maybe I didn't need to write about how horrible I feel," he sniffles.

"You needed help and the only way to get it off your chest was writing it. It wasn't your fault that Caitlyn got your journal," I reason.

"But how did she?" He asks confused.

He sits up and wipes away his tears.

"How did she get my book? Trent was the last one to have it but...I got it back. He threw it at me after he...he..."

I sit up and hug him.

Someone knocks on the front door and we look at each other. Big D has a spare key for this place. I mean, he's a "genius" so he wouldn't knock.

Chase gets up and goes to the door. I follow behind and soon we're all waiting for him to open it. When he does we don't expect to see him. He's wearing a grey hoodie and ripped jeans with sneakers.

"Chase," he smiles.

"Douglas?"

"What do you want?" Tasha glares.

"Can I come in?"

"I don't think so," I growl.

"Adam," Chase warns.

I step in front of him and my family ready to fight.

"What. Do. You. Want?" I ask.

"I need to speak with Chase," he says with his hands up defensively.

"No," I glare.

Chase grabs my hand in his and I turn to see him smile. He looks a bit pale and I'm worried sick about him. I won't let him get hurt anymore.

"Whatever you have to tell me, you can tell my family," Chase responds.

I squeeze his hand in mine gently and smile back reassured.

"That girl that revealed your bionic secret isn't human," Donald informs.

"What?! Caitlyn isn't human!"

"She's a bionic soldier. What I wanted to do to you three was wrong and I can't say enough how sorry I am for everything," Douglas explains.

"But..that's impossible," Bree gasps.

"Quite possible," he contradicts.

"How?"

I can feel a wave emotion and look at Chase.

How didn't I know? I'm supposed to know! Even with Marcus I didn't know!

Calm down Chase, don't panic. It's okay to make a mistake, I soothe.

That's the point! I've made so many mistakes...I am a mistake.

"Excuse us. Please come in, we'll discuss this later," I say and pull Chase to our room.

I slam the door shut a bit angry.

"Would you stop that?" I yell.

He stares at me confused.

"Stop thinking all of this. You made a mistake or two. So what? You're only human!"

"I'm supposed to be-"

"Our leader. The smart one. I get it but you're not alone. Fucking shit can't you see?"

He whimpers and backs away but I'm not letting him get away with this. I grab his biceps and hold him in place. It's enough.

"You are not a mistake. You are wonderful and amazing. Stop thinking less of yourself because you're not," I say.

"A-Adam let go," he struggles.

"No. Not until you listen," I grab his chin and tilt it up until our lips meet.

Stop fighting who you are. I love you. Everything about you. I make mistakes all the time and somehow it works out. Leo and Bree are the same. And so is our dad. We are who we are.

I break the kiss and look at Chase with so much love. His face is flushed and his lips are swollen. He's panting for breath and holding on to my shoulders. His rests on my chest as we stand in the middle of the room.

"I'm sorry Adam..."

"It's okay...just please," I whisper.

"I'll try," he breathes.

"Good," I gently kiss his forehead.

"This is too much," he whispers hoarse.

"I know. Let it out baby," I soothe.

And he does. He cries himself out until he falls asleep in my arms. Caitlyn isn't human. But at some point she was. So what exactly happened?
