Chapter 30 - The four directions

Start from the beginning
                                    

“But why would he come back to Stratford then?” I exclaimed, throwing my arms in the air.

“I don’t know, Jason!” Calvin shouted. “I know just as much as you do.”

A cold, eerie atmosphere filled the room.

"Are you sure that it's that compass?” Dakota said quietly.

Geronimo nodded. ”How many other magical compasses do you know?”

Flashback to 3 years ago

"I give up!” I said annoyed and threw the compass at the coffee table.

"We've been trying for 4 days now. It's impossible!” Gabriel hissed at Calvin.

"Boys, boys. Calm down," Calvin said soothing. ”It's okay.”

"What is so important about that compass?” The new boy said. Dakota, I think his name was.

"It shows the direction to what you want and need the most in this world,” Gabriel sighed dreamy. I looked down at the dark brown compass with the gold-colored letters.

"Is that why it says "PRECIOUS” on the front?” Dakota asked again. God, could that annoying and curious boy shut his mouth!

Calvin nodded. ”Yes, it shows you what is precious to you.” He replied Dakota.

Dakota nodded understanding, and looked down at his hands making his black hair cover his eyes.

"I’ll go for a walk,” I muttered and picked up compass up from the table. Stupid compass, I thought to myself, it’s probably not even true.

End of Flashback

But it was true. The compass was real, and if Desied had found a way to open it... I closed my eyes shut.

"I just wanted you all to know about this.” Calvin sighed and got up from the couch. We looked around at each other, as we were all in our own thoughts.

I took a last sip of my beer before I got up. ”See you tomorrow." I mumbled strained before I went up the stairs and into my bedroom.

 

Christine's POV

 I slowly opened my eyes and saw Jason was no longer next to me. But the bed was warm. I sat up in bed and rubbed my eyes. The bathroom door opened and out came Jason. He hadn’t noticed I was awake because he stood with his head bended down drying his hair. He straightened up with a sigh and his eyes flew open as he saw me staring at him.

"Hey handsome,” I said with a giggle, and let my eyes slide down his naked body.

He smiled shy to me, and sat down with the towel around him on the edge of the bed.

I pulled at his towel, wanting him to go back under the covers. It worked, and he lay on top of me, and looked smiling down at me. ”Good morning puppet.” He softly kissed my lips before he lay down and hugged me tightly.

Jason's POV

"Oh my God! It's Thursday!” Christine suddenly exclaimed. She tried to get up but I held her firmly down against the mattress.

"So what?” I muttered, kissing her cheeks.

"I’m supposed to be at the school!” She continued, but I could feel her slowly giving up.
