Emma walked into her room and shut the door behind her. She decided that she needed an breath of fresh air so she went to the door that led to her balcony. She stepped outside and closed her eyes and felt the slight change of the wind hit her fully on her face. *It's going to rain soon.* She thought as she had the image of the rain falling on everyone in the world.

***********

Brennan started the car once more and zoomed back onto the street and contiuned towards wherever he the hell he was going. He still didn't know where he wanted to go but all he knew was he had to get away from Emma.

The rain began to fall first an tinkle than the clouds burst open and it came crashing down.

**********

Emma tilted her face up to meet the falling rain and closed her eyes. She loved how the rain hit her body and made her wet. She loved how the rain could be cold and warm at the same time. Cold to the body but warm to her mind.

***********

"Sounds like rain." Jesse said as the rain belted onto the roof.

"No kidding Genius." Shamlair wisecracked from where she was practing her judo moves.

"I never claim to be an genius that's Adam's department." Jesse said grinning as he watched his friend practice with her powers.

"What's my department?" Adam asked from the open door way? He leaned against the door frame with his hands in his pants pockets looking in on his two friends.

"Being an Genius." Both Jesse and Shamliar said together.

"Ahh." Adam smirked. He turned serious. "Have any of you seen Emma?"

"Not for the past two hours." Shamliar shook her head as she moved into another judo move.

"How about you Jesse?" Adam turned to look at Jesse.

"Not since her little scene with Brennan." Jesse shrugged. "Why something the matter?"

"No." Adam said. *I just wanted to see how she is doing is all.* "Well perhaps she's in her room." With that Adam left the doorway.

"So what do you make of that?" Jesse asked Shamliar.

"You know how Adam is. He is just being the protector." Shamliar said stretching.

***********

Emma sat down on the wet balcolny and closed her eyes and titled her face up as she felt the north wind blow around her. *Perhaps the wind can blow all my confusion away.* She thought once again about her feelings for Brennan.

**********

"Emma." Adam asked knocking on the door to the young woman's room. When no one responded he felt the need to open the door and check on her. *Sorry Emma but hopefully you will understand.* With that he placed his hand onto her door and slid it open but only to find an empty room.

He walked in and looked around and felt the cold breeze come. He walked to the open door and looked out and saw Emma soaking wet to the bone sitting with her head between her knees. "Emma." He said softly.

Emma looked up and said "Adam."

"I'm here." Adam said relieved that Emma was still with them. "Would you like to come out of the rain?"

Emma shook her head. "Would you mind coming out in the rain?"

Adam stepped out from her dry room to the wet rain. In mere seconds he was soak to the bone. He walked over to where Emma was sitting and he sat down behind her. He pulled her to him and wrapped his arms across her body. "Would you like to talk about it?"

Emma leaned backwards so that her head rested on Adam's chest and felt his breath on her face as he leaned over to look at her. "Warm?" She whispered?

"Yes." Adam said. "You?"

"Always with you." Emma responded with an smile.

Adam felt warmth flow through his body as he and Emma sat like that just staring into each other's souls not talking or resolving anything but being one.
