1 " ...crackers..." a voice breathed out nehind us, " yesss..." Both of us turned, watching as Chubs twisted around in his seat and settled back down, still fast asleep. I pressed a hand over my mouth to keep from laughing. Liam rolled his eyes, smiling. . "
2 " I hugged him without any kind of fear or self-consciousness, fiercely, with a rush of emotion that almost brought tears to my eyes." I could kiss you!" Chubs cried." Please don't!" I gasp out, feeling his arms tighten around my ribs to the point of cracking them. "
3 " Oh my God, Green,” I heard Chubs say from somewhere in the room. “Just take the damn socksand put the kid out of his misery. "

4 " Just shut up and start sucking each other's faces already," Vida grumbled, leaning awkwardly against the stump. She would never admit it aloud, but I knew the burns on her back her eating her alive with pain. " I'm trying to make up for the sleep I lost when you started screeching at each other like cats in heat." " Miss Vida," Liam said, " has anyone ever told you that you are positively the whipped cream on the sundae of life?" She glared at him. " Anyone ever told you your head is shaped like a pencil?" " That is physically impossible," Chubs groused. " He'd be--" " Actually," Liam began, " Cole once did try to-- What?" " Oh, I'm sorry," Chub said, " apparently the middle of my sentence interrupted the beginning of yours. Do continue." " I'm going to guess you probably don't want to hear about the time he pushed my head through the neighbours fence..." " Was there a lot of blood?" Vida asked, suddenly interested. " Did you lose an ear?" Liam held his hands up next to his ears, indicating both were firmly attached to his skull." Then, no" she said. " No one wants to hear your boring-ass story. "
5 " If she's not alright, I'm going to rip out his heart and eat it." I nodded. " You really shouldn't eat raw meat," Chubs said. "
6 " I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be up for hearing about the one-eyed chick," Vida said with a shrug. " You are atually the worst person I have ever met," Chubs said. " And people like you are the reason we have middle fingers. "

8 " I felt the familiar warm tingling at the center of my chest and had just enough time to gasp as some invisible hand yanked me forward, smacking my forehead against the dashboard with enough force to stun me dumb. Chubs slammed on the brakes, forcing my seat belt to do its job and lock against my chest. I was thrown back into my seat, an explosion of colors bursting in my vision. " Oh, hell no!" Chubs roared, slamming a hand against the steering wheel. " That's it! We don not use our abilities on one another, goddammit! Behave yourself! "
