<strong>Melinda</strong><br/><br/>Melinda rose and moved into the living room with Jacob, eager to meet this guy Lewis had sent over. She was more than anxious to have Cassie's body removed from the house as well, it creeped her out though she hated to admit it. As she and Jacob entered the room she heard Chloe explaining to him about her powers and she stiffened.<br/><br/>It never was comfortable for her to read someone new, feeling all the emotions and memories was overwhelming enough but to suddenly intercept some intimate memory or future occurrence that she had no business seeing was never pleasant. However, Melinda knew this was necessary and she braced herself for the impact of reading this new man.<br/><br/><strong>Tabitha</strong><br/><br/>She sighed heavily when her sisters voice reached her upstairs. Sitting with the nearly comatose Vicar was somewhat soothing to her and she hated to have to rejoin reality. Grudgingly she made her way downstairs, shivering the moment she laid eyes on the new man. Their eyes met for an instant and suddenly her entire body came to life, she was itching to touch him...<br/><br/>"Read him Melinda." she stated softly. She kept to the corner of the room, just eyeing him warily.<br/><br/><strong>Melinda</strong><br/><br/>Melinda looked to Tabitha with annoyance, "I was just about to. Can I introduce myself before I read his mind?" she quipped, sarcasm dripping from her tone.<br/><br/>Approaching James, Melinda smiled warmly, "Please ignore Tabitha, she has had all the stress she can handle and is now acting out. Normally she is rather pleasant to be around." she glared over her shoulder to her sister. "If I can just hold your hand a moment, you won't notice anything." she reassured him as she reached for him and gripped his hand gently.<br/><br/>Within seconds Melinda knew he was trustworthy. He truly believed in the supernatural and he would protect them at all costs. A smile of relief curled her lips briefly, then suddenly Melinda's face went totally white and she gasped, pulling her hand from his as though he had burned her.<br/><br/>She glanced around the room nervously and blushed ten shades of bright red. "He's good Chloe...all good." she stammered quickly. Unable to meet the eyes of anyone else Melinda went to the couch and sank into its cushions slowly, quietly studying her nails. "I need a manicure." she mumbled.<br/><br/><strong>Tabitha</strong><br/><br/>Tabitha straightened from her slouch against the wall when Melinda gasped. Immediately she watched James closer, sure her sister had discovered some dark evil secret but she was confused when Melinda ducked her head and stated he was alright. As she watched Melinda her suspicion grew, the only time Melinda blushed that way was when she saw something sexual in her visions.<br/><br/>Again Tabitha watched James, wondering if Melinda had gotten to see the guys naked body or something. She grinned, she would not mind having to see that for herself....
