front of his hair is now covering his bright blue eyes. Kallos can feel something inside of her breaking because of him. She wants her sweet Ian back. “I’m sorry, Ian,” she hears her voice break, and she knows she is going to be in tears soon. Kallos buries her face in her hands to hide the tears. “I'm so sorry!” She knows it’s stupid to be crying. What she feels for Ian and Sean is more than love, and it's killing her to know that Ian is mad at her. She feels his arm go around her, and he holds her tightly.
“Shh, you have nothing to be sorry about,” Ian whispers into her ear. Kallos is still crying, and she is starting to feel the wetness soaking into his shirt.
“You don’t have to stay here with me if you don’t want to. I still have Sean.” She is really hoping he will stay. He pulls away from Kallos and stares into her eyes.
“Kallos, I want to be here. What gave you that impression?” He is looking at her, and she can see something dark in his eyes again. Suddenly, when he blinks, it's gone. When she is just about to tell him that he gave her that impression, he shakes his head. “I did. Didn’t I?”
Kallos doesn't say anything; she just looks down. He lets go of her body and put his hands on her face. “Oh, Kallos, I’m the one who is sorry. I’ve been scared since we put on these necklaces, and confused. But when we came in here and saw you, I almost lost my cool. Sean and I knew what you were feeling and felt it firsthand. Since you have two soul mates, what will you do?” That is the big question; what is she going to do? She can’t be with both of them, right?'
“I don’t know yet. You guys have to give me some time. I mean I just found out that I have not one but two soul mates.” She has only known them for a few days now.
“We aren’t going to rush you, Kallos. I better get going before your parents freak out. Good night, Kallos.” Without a good night kiss, he leaves, and she drops her head into her hands. There are so many things she is discovering about herself in such a little amount of time, Kallos is afraid she might break. She doesn't know how much more she can take. She runs her fingers through her hair, and decides to go back to sleep. The last thing she remembers thinking, I hope I have normal dreams, as she drifts off in a deep slumber.
CHAPTER NINE
The sun from her big picture window wakes Kallos up. After what happened last night, Kallos forgot to close the blinds. Since she is waking up almost an hour early, she decides to get up and take a shower. Now that there are two new people in the house, she wants to be the first one in the shower. Kallos grabs her fuzzy black robe with light pink hearts on it and walks to the bathroom. When she goes to open the door, she finds it locked. “Crap,” there goes her plan. She slumps down across from the bathroom.
Kallos isn't sitting there long before the door opens, and Ian is standing in the doorway. The sight of him takes her breath away. A dark blue towel is wrapped around his waist, and his gorgeous black hair is still wet and messy from the shower. She can't take her eyes off of his bare body. His abdomen looks like it was sculpted from stone, and she badly wanted to reach out to run her finger tips down each well-defined muscle. When she finally looks up at his face, he is smiling. Kallos can feel the heat rushing up her face. As she quickly looks down, she notices his sculpted body, which makes her blush even more. He starts to chuckle.
“Good morning, Kallos,” Ian says sounding pleased. She decides that looking at his feet is the best thing she can do.
“Good morning, Ian. Did you save any hot water for me?” Kallos is flustered from being caught staring at his perfect abs, her quickly turning crimson cheeks show her deep embarrassment.
“I’m sorry Ian,” Kallos apologizes as she stands up. “I slept deeply for the first night in a long time, but woke up too soon. What about you and Sean?” She rises up on her toes
