\u201cOf course you do.\u201d Summer ran her hand down Lex\u2019s hair. Fire, for this, later. \u201cYou will, but first you have to help yourself. Can\u2019t ease him all tied in knots yourself, now can you?\u201d<\/p>\n

She wondered how long, exactly, the other girl had been holding on to this, thinking that refusing the tears made her strong. In Summer\u2019s experience, that only led, in the end, to an overflowing explosion that made things worse before they got better. But maybe she was biased.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Lex looked up to Summer, her eyes swimming in tears. \u201cHow? How am I going to help me?\u201d she asked, her voice nearly hoarse from sobbing. \u201cI regret so many things\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

It was then when something sharp struck her in deep of her stomach. Her body stiffened, and Lex gasped. Dalie\u2019s curse was breaking. Her magic was coming back. Finally. \u201cSummer\u2026 let go!\u201d she choked out the words, pushing Summer away from her. She didn\u2019t know what would happen now or if she would hurt Summer in any way if she stayed so near to her. \u201cMy magic\u2026 it\u2019s coming back!\u201d Lex fell onto her knees, and it felt like something pushed her onto all fours. The energy was running with full force through her system, bringing everything in her back to life. Lex coughed, and a kind of fluid and misty and blue substance came out of her mouth. Straightening up onto her knees again, sparks shot out of her hands, before she gave a final loud gasp, collapsing on the ground. Thank gods she had pushed Summer away\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer stumbled back a few steps, new instinct spreading her wings for balance. Hastily, she dumped the emotion she’d drawn off Lex into shields, blocking out the physical pain doubling the other girl over. “Lex? Lex?! Should it hurt you that muc—YIKES!”<\/p>\n

Skipping aside from the sparks, she knelt beside Lex, resting a hand on her shoulder. “Hey. Hey, Lex!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
