“I can’t do this,” I said yet again as I opened my locker after first period. Second period was math with Shad. I really didn't think that I could endure it. I closed my locker and banged my head against it. “I am going to go back outside to the grass.”

“Emma, we have been over this. It isn't really Shad. Don't take anything he says or does seriously. And I think we need to not ever lay down over in the grass again. People were giving us looks, and while I love you, and all, we don’t need that extra attention from the earthlings. Okay, maybe from one Earthling, Aiden, but I really would like him not to think that I am crazy. Also, I had some grass in my hair,” she whispered that last part.

“Easier said than done, for me, at least. I am going crazy,” I mumbled.

Ash put her hands on her hips. “What is?”

“Easier said than done, to not take what Shad says seriously. It’s not easy, and hearing Cade inside of me is driving me crazy.”

“Try, and I don't know, to get to know the new him. Think of him as someone brand new, and get to know him again,” she shrugged.

It was like she didn’t know that the devil was standing there behind me—or wait, the corruptor himself. “Why are you shielding your soul?” he asked. I turned back around as Ash whispered in my ear.

“He looks so much like Shad, Emma, and that melody—” She bit her lip. “I think you should cut yourself some slack for being confused.” I started pulling her down the hall and away from the evil boy.

“Ash, don't look at him. He's conceited.”

“I mean he has—”

I looked at her with warning in my eyes. “Don't you say it.”

“What?” She shook her head and pretended to zip her lips. “I wasn't going to say a word.”
