Ramona Riddle - Dark Lord's daughter (On Hold)

Lauren's story

CHAPTER 64

''I can't believe.''

I didn't move. He finally decided to speak.

''Twin? Did you really do...this?'' Morrison asked after a long, long silence. The room was fill with tension, it could be cut with a knife. And I was still staring at my little tear, thinking about my life. Or better said, thinking of the broken pieces of my life.

I gave a quick look to my twin. His emerlad green eyes were opened because of shock, his chin was tense and he was hugging Lauren that strongly that she moened, pushing away his strong hands. ''Caspar, this hurts,'' she mumured, surprised, to my twin. He didn't even look at her what surprised me and her.

I sighed. ''No, I was just kidding. Please! As if I could joke about thing like this,'' I said, sarcasm noticable in my voice. Morrison was looking in my eyes for some moments but then he looked away. I caught a light of pain in his deep eyes.

''I can't believe,'' Fred murmured again and his voice made me wince.

I looked at my love. He was still hugging me around my waist but his eyes looked darker than usual and alienated. He was staring somewhere past my shoulder, at my fireplace, maybe. I sighed, caressing his hand. ''I'm sorry, Fred. I didn't want to hurt you-''

''-but you did. You did hurt me. A lot. Gosh Ramona, you couldn't think that you could do this without hurting me, your twin and your friends. You're not stupid, you knew the conseguences, you knew that one day you'll have to fight us and kill us...and you still did this!''

Fred's words hurt me more than all Father's curses in all my life.

I winced, feeling sick. ''Fred, please,'' I said silently, all the sarcasm disappeared from my voice. Now it sounded just weak and sad. I knew what I've done to him, I knew how he was feeling, I knew that he'll hate me...but I was still hoping that maybe, maybe between us can still work. Maybe he can still love me. I know that I will always love him. Always. Until the end.

He finally looked in my eyes and I winced in pain. His eyes looked so foreign, so cold and full of pain that it hurt.

''Fred...I never meant to hurt you...never,'' I whispered, feeling the tears in my eyes. I sniffed, looking out of the window. My eyes caught the full moon and for a moment I thought how it'd be if I'd be living on the moon. Certainly more calm and less painful.

Fred's voice teleported me back to Earth.

''I don't believe you! And I don't want to hear a word! I'm leaving!'' He pushed me away rudely and I hurt my hand when I tryed to avoid the rude contact with my bed. Fred stood up, shaking. I looked up at his face and shocked, I noticed that he was crying. ''Don't cry,'' I murmured. ''Fred, please. I-'' '-SHUT UP!'' he shouted, slapping me.

Shocked silence.

Shakingly, I touched my painful cheek where he slapped me.

Fred's just slapped me.

He slapped you.

''You...you slapped me,'' I whispered, shocked, looking straight in his eyes. He looked even more shocked. I think that we both didn't expect him to slap me. But he didn't say sorry. No, what he said hurt me more than the slapp.

''You deserv it. You're a lier who just like to hurt others. You're just like your father! Cold, hostil creature, who was born to kill others!''

I looked at him completely shocked and weak. I felt sad when I've heard this words. I never expected him to say this. But...after all, I've deserved it. Right? But, althought I knew that I deserved it, I couldn't stop the tears that ran down my cheeks and fell on the cold floor, forming another little puddle.
