Strings of Fate

205- Sweethearts and safeguarding

My automatic reaction is to panic and to mentally scream NO ABSOLUTELY NOT! She is just a child. She is way too young to already find the person she is fated to be with, not to mention she has been through too much. What if he is immature or goes through a jerk phase as he grows up? Or worse, what if he is a lot older than her? Four or five years might not mean much when she’s an adult, but at her age that is a LOT. And who could it be? Is he going to be good enough? What if I don’t approve of him, what if he’s a bad influence. I’ve seen people with red threads who hated each other and were terrible for each other when they were young and as they matured became more right for one another. Is it too soon for them to meet? She’s just gone through an incredibly traumatic circumstance and she does NOT need some guy messing with her head right now. I take a deep breath and try to relax. I don’t know who it is, we might not even be meeting him right now. The thread just tells me that he’s sort of nearby. That could mean anything! There are people who end up together who pass by each other for years before they actually meet. Or they meet but don’t interact much or become close until much later. This is no reason to panic. I’ve seen tons of kids who have already met the person they’re fated to. Mostly they barely notice each other. Sometimes they’re childhood sweethearts, like the two Shifter kids I saw at Megan’s engagement party. Normally this wouldn’t bother me at all. I think I’m just feeling overprotective towards Kiara right now, There’s no need to see problems that aren’t there. I look up and realize that Aaron is watching me in the rearview mirror with a furrowed brow. I must look stressed. I give him. what is probably a poor excuse for a smile then pull out my phone to text Bellamy.

Ryann- BELLAMY I CAN SEE KIARA’S RED THREAD AND I AM FREAKING OUT!!!

Bellamy- What the hell! But she’s a kid! Who does it lead to?!?

Ryann- I don’t know. We’re driving right now and I haven’t had a chance to follow it. I’m not

sure I even want to. She’s so young.

Bellamy- True. Maybe we should keep them separate. At least until we know who he is… She’s

been through so much already.

Ryann- Exactly! But… We can’t do that. I do my best not to interfere, remember? Plus we’re focussing on the negatives. It COULD be a good thing.

Shall we head in?” A glance at her shows me that her red thread is still visible, so whoever it joins her to is still nearby. We both climb out of the cart and I do my best to keep my anxiety off my face. I’m halfway through
