Chapter 27- Trust goes both ways
I laid in bed. It was the middle of the night. My eyes were closed as I tried to sleep. Suddenly I heard a whisper."Hey...Are you awake?"
I flinched and my eyes opened wide. I sat up and looked for the source of the voice. The room was dark, and I had to squint to see inside the shadows. There was shadow in the corner that was darker. I saw two eyes looking at me. They looked unsure.
"W-who are you? What do you want?"
They were quiet for a moment then stepped forward, into the faint moonlight. My eyes widened as I saw Scratch.
"You!"
"...Me."
"What are you doing in my room?!" I practically yelled. Scratch flinched at the tone of my voice and shifted.
"I was um.. I needed to talk to you privately. And this was the only chance I could talk to you."
I wasn't sure what to say, so I shut my mouth and pulled the blankets up around myself a bit more.
"I will um.. I'll go now." He turned away awkwardly. he reached towards the wall and his hand turned to shadow. On a impulse I reached forward and grabbed his sleeve.
"Wait."
He stopped surprised and looked at me. After a moment I awkwardly took my hand back and looked away.
"What did you want to tell me?"
He looked around as if scared someone was listening. Then he sighed.
"I can't tell you here."
"Then how do I know you don't just want to kidnap me."
He hesitated and looked down.
"I wouldn't do that."
"How do I know?"
"Just trust me ok.. This is important."
Something told me he was telling the truth, but Solus's words still rung in my mind. What if he wanted to hurt me? Then I remembered how he almost just left. If he wanted to capture me, he wouldn't give up that easily.
"Alright, let me get dressed first."
His eyes brightened a little as he looked up. Then he turned his back on me to give me privacy. I got dressed, then tapped him on the shoulder when I was done. He turned back around.
"All ready?"
I nodded. He looked around, then looked back at me again. He held out a hand.
"Do you trust me?"
I hesitated, unsure.
"Trust goes both ways you know."
I looked him in the eyes. I couldn't describe what I saw in them, but I knew one thing for certain.
He trusted me.

Susie went on a walk across See More the park. Suddenly--
The word 'suddenly' adds suspense, and makes you want to know what happens next. You read on, often quicker, to match the pace of the story.
When your ending a chapter, put something that finishes your thought, yet has potential to open up the next chapter. I'm not sure how to make an example of this, so just look at the last sentence or words at the end of my chapters. It SHOULD make you think, make you wonder, what is going to happen next. Or even make some theories in your head for later in the book.
Out of curiosity, what do you think is going to happen next in my book?
@moonston
I hope I'm not confusing. that's one tip.
@moonston
For example, Ash (which can be a boy or a girl), has problems with their magic, and feels like Solus is kind and mysterious. She thinks he is powerful, but holding See More back.
In Solus's opinion (which I don't want to spoil anything so I'll be vague), doesn't feel right in the class. He is different, and everyone knows he's differernt, so he hides his secrets and thoughts well. In chapter 7, he starts taking more notice in Ash, cause she helped him.
