SECRETS IN THE SHADOWS

Ambrosia uncovered Nikolas, he got up quickly, he put his arms and hands over his face and told Ambrosia to cover him back up. Ambrosia jumped back, covered him up and left the basement. She sat in the lobby waiting for it to turn dark so then Nikolas could stay up with her. While she waited, she thought about telling him the reason that she is in this town, but then she decided to not tell him yet, because it is too soon for him to know, they had just met, and she didn't want to ruin anything with him. She starts to have feelings for him.


Thoughts raced through her head, she thought if they were going to spend time together, she had to tell him what she is doing, then she thought if she kept it a secret from him their relationship would not be true. She knew she had to tell him soon, she just didn't know how or what to say, just yet.
