It's been a week since Jonathan overheard my conversation with Harley. I face him of course. He's still my partner and I'm not a coward. Then why am I so afraid of him then? He has yet to say anything to me outside of work. Momma Selina told me to confront him today. It's my last task before becoming the last Siren. Apparently my little bit of telepathy is useful to them. And once Jonathan and I have our plan solidified, nothing will stop us.

I take two good, reassuring deep breaths before I go in, "Jonathan?" I yell across the threshold.

"Not in at the moment." I heard a raspyish voice.

"Scarecrow, I need to talk with John." I commanded.

"He hasn't been in for a week. What makes you think he'll come back now?"

"I need to talk to him and I know you know why." I snapped at him and he rolled his eyes and he closed them for a second. When he opened his eyes they were back to blue.

"I admire you're courage Veronika."
