Thank you guys so much for all the positive feedback on the first chapter. Work got in the way of my writing the second, but I think I gave you all what you were looking for. Sorry if the chapters are short, maybe when I get more accustomed to the formatting on Lit I can get better at producing longer chapters for you.
Always let me know what you think in the comments!

Chapter 2
I was young when I made my first mistake. I wasn't careful with my abilities, my parents warned my for years about making sure I kept myself protected. I never thought that I'd have to protect my best friend or myself from... myself. It had been a few weeks since I had been back to the forest, after what happened with Dane. It scared me to go back. My parents told me to not take him with me anymore, my only friend and I couldn't play with him anymore.
I entered the trees, and was instantly greeted with a soft breeze, it caressed my face and swept my hair over my shoulder. My fear instantly disappeared. I took off running, and anytime I tripped there was something there to catch me before I fell. I stopped and looked up, I waved my hands in the air as if I was opening window drapes, and the branches moved out of the way to show our tree houses. I smiled and reached up, imagining flying up through the branches. Soon I was soaring, and I landed on the porch of our most recent house. The vines that had assisted me up now unwound themselves from my arms, I reached out and ran my hand along them as a thank you.
I sat down on the floor, and closed my eyes. I missed my friend, with no one to play with, I felt lonely. The forest was my second home, but now I had no one to share it with. I sighed and opened my eyes. There were two forms, they looked like smoothed trees, but they were shaped like a little girl and a little boy. I reached out and touched one, forest green eyes opened and looked at me. I gasped and stepped back, the two forms stood up, they were about my height, and they stood there and looked at me. Then they looked down at themselves, stretching out their arms, bending their legs. Then looked back at me, waiting for something.
"You're not wearing any clothes!" I exclaimed and pointed at them, there was a rustle in the trees outside and then a breeze through the open windows. Vines and leaves came through, wove together, and soon the two figures were wearing clothes. They boy in simple pants and t-shirt, the girl in a long flowy dress. I smiled and clapped my hands. "Do you guys want to play?" I asked, and they looked at each other and then back to me. They nodded in agreement and I clapped again. I reached forward and tapped one on the shoulder, then I took off running. I reached out and imagined bridges flowing between the tree houses, and by the time I reached the gaps there were bridges connecting them. I giggled with glee, and when I reached the last house I stopped. My two new friends were walking across the last bridge.
They looked at me, and then both tilted their heads to the side. I sighed and crossed my arms over my chest. They didn't know how to play hide and seek! I shook my head and we sat down in the large room of the last house. Instead of playing games, I started making things for the room, and making the two wood creatures more clothes, and beds.
I left late in the afternoon and walking towards my house. I never got lost here, something in me always told me which way I was supposed to go to get where I wanted to be. I ran once I was out of the trees, and straight to my back door. I didn't even notice Dane peeking out from the curtains to watch me, or the sadness in his eyes at being left behind.
************************************
I groaned and sat down on the bed. I put my head in my hands and sat there for a minute. I could do one of two things... I could pretend that never happened or I could act on the feelings I'd had for years. My mind was screaming to protect Dane, to protect our friendship and keep things how they were. Yet my heart was screaming to go out there and claim the only man who could pull at it the way it wanted to be. I had thought it was just my nature to want sex constantly; all through college I jumped around with guys, and none of them ever gave me what I was looking for, they never intrigued me. They never ignited me the way he did. But I would never have imagined he wanted me. I always felt like he was trying to protect me, if only he knew it was the other way around. I laid back on the bed, the image of him laying here, his pants tight around his member, set my stomach fluttering and an explosion of heat between my legs.
We were twenty-two now, I had no doubt that he had sex in college, this could just be sex, couldn't it? I could just walk into the living room, and see where it goes... I sat up quickly, I knew if I sat here and thought about it I would never do it. I had to go now, now or never.
I stripped off the clothes I managed to get on before he left, and I slowly opened my door, walking as quietly as I could out into the living space. He was standing staring into the pantry with his back to me, I walked behind him and looped my arms around his waist from the back, laying my head against his broad back. I always forgot about how tall he got in high school. He felt at least a full foot taller than me. He didn't move right away, but I felt him still, and heard him catch his breath.
"Dane..." I said softly, I didn't know quite what to say, or how to handle this. How do you take things from friends to something else smoothly? "Can you turn around?" I finally asked, and so he did, and when his eyes met mine his breath rushed out. He lifted his hands and cupped my face, it wasn't a second after that his mouth was on mine. We kissed with everything we had been holding back the past few years, and I began pulling at the bottom of his shirt. He got the idea and he began to pull it over his head, breaking the kiss for the brief second it took him to pull it over his head.
I began walking him backwards, pressing him up against the wall. He quickly flipped the rolls, pressing his body against mine, and effectively trapping me. Not that I minded – at all. I moaned softly as he bit my lip, which pulled a moan from him as well. I began to feel the effects of our kiss, the return of the warm rush through my blood and the pooling of wetness in my panties. I ran my hands down his chest, amazed at how broad he had gotten the past few years. Dane was no longer the lanky boy I used to hang out with. He was also not the shy, unsure kid I had imagined him to be all these years; his hands were roaming my back, and running over my ass. He grabbed me there, pulling me against him, grinding against my stomach. My hands were still pinned against his chest, but I could feel his breathing picking up, and I could definitely feel his hard length against me.
My heart sped, if I hadn't been sneaking looks at him the last few years I would have been surprised with his length. As it was I was already surprised enough by how hard he was against me. I instantly snaked my hands down, and pulled at his belt, his breath caught and he pulled away from our kiss. I could see all of his conflicting thoughts flash across his face, the longing and the confusion of all this being the most prominent.
I took advantage of the space between us to undo his belt, quickly followed by his button and his zipper. He reached up and brushed my long black hair over my shoulder, and then cupped my face again. I looked up at him, my hand on the waist-band of his underwear as he gently brushed his thumb across my lips, I gently bit his thumb when he was last expecting it, and that seemed to make up his mind. The next thing I knew I was picked up off the ground and we were on our way back to my room.
I couldn't keep the smile off my face. He slammed the door open, and threw me on the bed, and I bumped and rolled, landing on my back. I rolled on my side, and watched as he pulled his pants down, kicking them across the room, and then stared at me with fire in his eyes and a very large bulge running down the inside of his thigh. I let out a tiny groan and rolled to sit up on my knees.
