\u201cI\u2019m the help,\u201d she told Jack. \u201cPeople don\u2019t help me, I help them. It\u2019s the way it works. I accept that. I just \u2014 sometimes I have to get away. I have to run and hope I can run fast enough to escape myself.\u201d Reaching out, Summer touched Jack\u2019s arm. \u201cPlease don\u2019t let my hurting make you hurt. I couldn\u2019t bear that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He looked at her hand on his arm. \u201c\u2026 But what if I want to help you so you don\u2019t feel like it\u2019s too much?\u201d He asked softly, smiling at her. \u201cYou don\u2019t always have to be the one taking everything on..\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t suppose I can stop you if you feel that way.\u201d A very faint smile crinkled around her eyes. \u201cThough I\u2019ve no idea what you think you can do.\u201d Summer let her hand fall, wrapping both arms around herself.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He shrugged a shoulder. \u201cI could be your friend?\u201d Although he shied away from the idea of \u2018friends\u2019 or anyone closer than an\u00a0acquaintance.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t really want that,\u201d Summer commented softly. \u201cI wonder why? What is it you do want? The shadows run very deep in you, honey.\u201d She looked him up and down, distracted out of her funk. \u201cThere\u2019s such a sense of age about you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cShadows.\u201d He muttered, raising an eyebrow. \u201cAre you some sort of magic being?\u201d He laughed quietly, looking her over again, uncertain now.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer conceded, “That’s … one way to put it.” The incipient smile lines vanished. \u00a0”And now you know why I carry so much. What you feel now. I know too much, and it frightens you.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
