The Cave

Luckily for Jane, Jacob was going on a secret meeting with Emma, so she just waited for Jacob to find a way, and sneak out after him. Their father was dead asleep, and so they both went out into the night, like wolves in a pack.

Jane waited for Millard. And waited. And waited. Soon, she ventured farther in, sneaking around. Suddenly, she heard a noise. She peered through the bushes to be rewarded with the view of Hugh and Fiona kissing. Jane's eyes went wide, and she ducked her head back into the foliage in time for Emma to walk in. As they talked, Jane hurried away. Finally, Jane bumped into Millard- literally. She went sprawling as she slammed into thin air. 

"Are you okay?" Millard asked, reaching out a hand to her.

"I'm okay," she grunted as Millard took her hand and pulled her up, "Let's go around the garden, okay?"

"Why?"

"Well, uh, Fiona and Hugh-"

"On second thought, let's not question you, and go around the garden." Millard interrupted. Jane and Millard took each other's hands, and walked out together. 

----------------------------------------

"Let's stop here." Millard said once they reached the beach.

"Alright." Jane said, sitting. They'd watched Emma and Jacob row out to sea somewhere, and were waiting until they'd left.

"Stand up, we're not going to be here, exactly."

"Well, than, where are we going?" 

" We're going to my secret place." Millard answered as he touched a stone to open a cave.

--------------------------------------

"Well, what is it?" Millard asked.

"Well...I found out how I'm peculiar."

"What? How?" and with that, she explained about Fraternal and Identical twins.

---------------------------------------

"Well, okay I still don't understand. What is it?" Millard asked.

"I'm a... wait for it... ymbre!" Jane burst. "Additionally, I'm going to stay for awhile longer and learn training. I wish I could stay forever, of course, even knowing about the Hollows and stuff but-"

"Here?"

"Yes."

"With Miss Peregrine?"

"Yes..."

"And me?"

"Yes! Of course!" Jane said.

"I- I don't know what to say..."

"Maybe you don't." Jane said mischievously.

"Huh?" Millard said, sounding confused. Jane leaned forward, and soon, they were kissing. Jane pushed him, and they were laying down and kissing. Soon, Millard pulled away, and Jane followed suit. They sat up, and stared into each other's eyes. (AN: I know, I know. Just go with it. Please.) 

"You want to stay."

"Yes. Forever if I could."

"Why?"

"Well, I never belonged in the common world. I tried, but I don't want to stay there. Not today, not tomorrow, not next year. I love my parents, but," she smiled. "my family's here. With you, and Emma, and Bronwyn, and Miss Peregrine, and Fiona, and Hugh, and everyone else. I still think I'm dreaming sometimes when I'm here. And I never want to wake up. My parents may love me, but they'll never understand. Besides, if I tried to practice at home, how would I explain how I turned into a bird should they walk in? 'Oh, yeah, mom it was the strawberries.'" By now, Millard was laughing. "Yeah, no. I'm staying. If Miss Peregrine'll let me, so much the better."

"I thought that I was going to have to convince you to stay, but it seems I won't." Millard joked. Suddenly, they heard Hugh and Fiona outside yelling.

"It's Miss Avocet!" they were yelling. 

"Oh, no." Jane said to Millard.

"Definitely something bad."

"Of course. The one night." Jane sighed. Millard put his arm around her shoulders, and they ran after Hugh, Fiona, Jacob, and Emma.
