Strings of Fate219- Painting and purplenovelbin
We don’t tell anyone else about what Kiara told us, not even the police. It won’t change anything and after Kiara cried herself tosleep that night, Bellamy and | returned to our room. and discussed it. If Kiara wants to tell someone she can, but we don’t wantpeople to be scared of her or anything like that. We don’t even tell Megan and Darrien. | know they wouldn’t be bothered by it,but Kiara told me and it’s not my place to share. Bellamy only heard because he was coming up to say goodnight too andoverheard. Although he did admit to eavesdropping in the hallway for a couple minutes. He came to tuck her in with me butheard the tears and didn’t know if he should come in or not and just ended up waiting there. Still, in the week after thatconversation Kiara did begin to relax a little more. She talks to people out loud now, although she still is pretty quiet. She hasn’tbrought it up again and neither have we but she has her first appointment talking to a professional later in the week, a Witch withempathic abilities that we have VERY thoroughly checked out. We were a little. unsure about sending Kiara to see a Witch aftershe was controlled with magic for so long, but she reacted well to the Shifters and we don’t want her to think that Witches are allbad.
She seemed okay when she met Cam so we're hoping it works. If they're not compatible thenwe can find someone else.
I'm out grocery shopping with Aaron. Bellamy and Kiara were in the process of painting her bedroom when | left and after | nearlyknocked over the tin of paint for the second time they “politely‘ suggested | could sort out dinner instead. Yeah | probablydeserved that. But hey, I’m no good at painting anyway so | don’t mind and the two of them working on it together is completelyadorable anyway. Walking around with Aaron would be sort of quiet and awkward but now that I’m out and about again andactually able to leave the house without a
death threat lingering over me, I’ve quickly fallen back into my habit of chattering away and filling the silence by just telling himpractically everything that goes through my mind. He probably feels like my daily journal or something at this point but he neverseems to complain so | guess he doesn’t mind? Right now I’m updating him on how my threads have been changing lately.
“Most recently Bellamy and | both got new green threads connecting us to Kiara, which does make sense since we’re taking careof her. But | don’t know why it just suddenly happened now and while all the changes are ones I’m okay with, what am | meant todo if something changes that | don’t want? | am seriously concerned about this.” | sigh. Aaron usually listens to my complaintssilently so it’s always a shock when he actually answers which is why | drop the tomato | was picking up when he speaks.

“The changes are all things you are sure about.” He says softly. | whirl to face him.“Sorry? What do you mean?” | ask. He shrugs.
“Are you sure that the changes aren’t something that you did?” He clarifies. | stare at him. It’s so obvious, | don’t know how |didn’t make the connection. Alex literally told me that I’m
meant to be able to change and choose my own fate. Isn't that what | did? | made a decision and poof | have a thread thatreflects that. | didn’t even know that | was doing anything at the time but it makes perfect sense. | wonder... is it something | cando on purpose? Or is it just something that happens to me but according to my desires. Well, | should test it. What’s somethingelse that I’m certain about? My eyes fall on Aaron who is picking up the tomatoes | dropped and adding them to the basket whilewaiting for me to work my way through my thoughts. Perfect. | can’t imagine not having him around, he’s basically my brother,kind of like Harry is. A very different brother, but still my brother. Darrien is too actually. The three of them, Darrien, Aaron andHarry are basically my brothers and | know that isn’t going to change. Honestly | can’t believe that | didn’t have threadsconnecting me to them to begin with because | swear it was unavoidable and | wouldn't have it any other way. Sure enough, myvision blurs and goes dark for a second and when my eyes adjust | have a new thread connecting me to Aaron and | suspect thatif Darrien or Harry were nearby | would have threads connecting me to them as well. Well that’s pretty cool. | mean, at least I’ll beable to find him when | need to now. I’m sort of tempted to try to make threads connecting me to all
my friends, but I’m a little worried that might be overwhelming and screw up my vision. Maybe | should try to learn how to not—see them or make them less noticeable or something first. Surely that’s possible if | can literally change fate | can make it lessobnoxiously in my
face.
We head home and Aaron and | work together and make dinner. | have confirmed that there is a blue thread joining me toDarrien now too. It should be confusing, | mean there are three blue threads plus a red and a green thread just joining me topeople in this house right now. But strangely they make sense. | look at one and | just know who it is connected to withoutthinking or looking. Hah! | guess they won’t be sneaking up on me anymore. I’m glad they're not too annoying because | wouldprobably have to get rid of them or something. We all eat. dinner together. Kiara is sleeping in the living room tonight so that shedoesn’t get sick from the paint fumes. So after dinner we get her set up and comfortable on the couch. I’m relaxing in bed whileBellamy showers. I’m pretty excited to tell him about my newly discovered control over my threads, when it occurs to me. If | canchange my threads to create new ones, then theoretically | can get rid of or destroy them too... right? Which means... | couldchoose not to be fated to Bellamy. | could choose someone else for myself. | don’t have to follow
