The Night Life. (#3)
After Ellena,Khalida,Loren,Oscar,Lexis,and Mark left my room i was left with just Leo standing beside me.He stared at me with concerened loving eyes and somehow i stared right back without a word we just sat there.Then he broke our stare and began to speak and sadly i wanted him not to speak.
"You know,I feel like I love you.But I also feel confused as of what to do about us.Ellena is not happy and could very well hurt you if I left her for you.And i dont want that.I suppose we could run away but Mark,Loren,and Oscar bieng werewolfs and the twins bieng witches could probobley find us.That is if they understood and Ellena doesnt persuade them.I love you Isadora,and i want to be with you but,im not sure how.We have to keep us a secret.I can pretend to be disgusted by you ofcoarse and she would laugh at you.But you could always act that way too.And then we could meet up at a secret place and be together."His words began to sound happy as if he was a little boy that just found a way to secretly disobey his parents and still come off as sweet and inocent.But they hurt me,I didnt want to hide from people I wanted us to be public and be a happy couple.
"But,i dont want us to hide Leo...unless it has to be that way..."My voice was just a hurt whisper and apparently he got that because he sat down and pulled me into his arms ignoring the shock it caused both of us and began to speak in a soft voice to me.
"Isadora Estelle. I love you,and want us to be public.I just think its too dangerous for you."And just like that he bent his head down and kissed me.At first it was painful because of the whole soulmate thing but then it wasnt so bad.Like puzzle pieces we fit together perfectly.And then he pulled away suddenly."I have to go.Now."And then he left the room without a glance back...I was so tired i just fell asleep to a -thankfully- dreamless night.
Maybe its better for us this way.In the morning i wont look at him but send him silent messages.Like we did today!This can work,he'll tell me a place and we'll meet there and be together!Gosh, i really need to sleep...
~The Next Night~
(Or morning for the Night people)
The next day i woke up and climed out of my bed and followed the smell of fresh blood. It was wierd how the smell just kinda hit me. On the way down the hall i passed a mirror and got just a glemse of myself and fully stopped. I had changed so much in the short amount of time. My green eyes were now a bright violet from the mix of red blood from my human life and a mixture of something else. My hair had gotton darker to were it had a purple tint to it now and was all over the place. On my way to the kitchen while fixing my air i thought. Like I really thought about my life for once. In just a day my whole life had changed. Actually this whole year changed my life. On the week before my sixteenth birthday my Father,who had become sick with cancer,died. Mom went into depression even deaper than before he got sick. She never spoke and stayed in her room and cried. I had to fend for myself and school issues. Just last week I broke up with my ex and now I found a soulmate. I found a liking to the night and started to sleep up in my childhood tree house to excape my mothers crying at night and to just get away from it all. Could life change anymore for me?
"Hey Babe,Love yah! Did you sleep well? The twins stocked up your closet so feel free to explore. They're shop acholics." While he was saying this i was looking at him out of the corner of my eye. He was looking absoloutley amazing wearing dark jeans and a DC T-shirt. "Hey Hunn,Love you too. I'll be sure to check it out. So weres Ellena? I kinda sorta have a plan...i should tottally be nice to her to get her to back off just a tad bit. Or...i think you should just dump her...like keep it goin for like a week then break up. Then a little while later it could be just me and you."
"Do you know what your saying? You want me to drop my life and be with you? Seriously? I dont want to leave Ellena shes awesome. But i dont know what to do about you. You just got here when?Yesterday?And your already wanting to control my life?" His words were painful, too painful. Blood tinged tears filled my eyes as i replied.
"No,and you said you loved me. Liar."
And with that i fled. With scarlet tears streaing down my new exotic face, i threw clothes into a plastic Walmart bag not even looking, ran down the hall and found a door. Not knowing where it led to I slammed it open. The night sky was welcoming, the stars filled the sky, the moon a beautifuly bright cresent in the sky, and also the perfect time to write. And i didnt have to think the words just popped into my mind unvolintary.
"Love is hiding,
But it cant be binding,
friends can hurt,
but lovers will break you,
like my cresent moon,
He goes away,
the sunshine hides him out of my way,
My stars are points,
moons my reason,
nights a love,
and my love is hidden,
but god why isnt,
hate foriden?
Night was a rose,
scarlet and smart,
roses are red, and violets are blue,
and now im broken,
How are you?Thank you,Thank you,
you broke my rose too."
Leaving my past in the past and never going back i used my telepath and sent it to the killer of my rose. Leo. I'd gotton my hopes up unprepared to have them crashng back down and bareing me in emmbaresment and sharp broken pieces of heart. My life officially stinks now. Thanks Life, for i feel like a ran over frog. Ran over by love & killed by hate.
