I'm not scared anymore

Chapter forty six: boundaries

Aurora's pov:

I woke up in the morning to a knocking on my door. I opened my eyes slightly and looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was 8:30 am. Oh no, i forget to put an alarm.

      I turned to my side and Swiss was still sleeping in my bed, right where i left him last night. "Swiss. Wake up." I shook him.

      "Aurora, are you awake yet? Come open." Phantom said from behind the door. "What?" Swiss looked at me, rubbing his eyes tiredly. "You have to hide." I said quietly. "What time is it? Did i really fall asleep?" Swiss asked confusedly. "Yeah you did and now you have to hide." I said, pushing him down from the bed.

     "Owww." Swiss whined as he hit the floor. "Aurora? Are you awake? I have the spare key to your room, if you don't open i'm gonna come in." Phantom said, getting impatient. "I'm coming." I yelled.

    "HIDE." I whisper yelled to Swiss, who just let out an amused laugh and rolled under the bed. "Stay there." I whispered and quickly jumped up from the bed.

        I opened the door and was met with Phantom. "What took you so long?" He asked and walked into my room. "I was sleeping." I said, walking after him. "You were still sleeping? Wow, you must have been tired." He said. "Yeah, i guess i was." I said.

       "I'm heading to breakfast, do you wanna walk with me?" He asked. "Umm, i have to change first, you can go ahead, i'll come right behind you." I said. "Are you sure? I can wait, i'm not in a rush." He said. "No, you can go. I just have to change and i'll come after you when i'm done" I said, trying to get him to leave.

       "Why are you trying to get me to leave, you are acting weird." He said, sitting on my bed. "No i'm not." I said. "Yes you are. Did something happen? Did Swiss do something?" He asked. "What? No, why would you think that." I said. "I don't know. I just don't like that guy, how he's trying to get to you all the time." He sighed.

        "No he's not. I don't know why you don't like him. He is literally so nice, just get to know him." I said. "We'll see. Just change already." Phantom sighed.

       "Come on Phantom, you're not being fair, he hasn't done anything wrong and still you are acting like that." I said. "Stop defending him, i just don't like him." Phantom scoffed. "Well i do. I like him." I exclaimed.

       Phantom looked at me with a stern look on his face. "No you don't. You think you like him and then he breaks your heart and i am not going to let that happen. Just change your clothes so we can go." Phantom scoffed annoyedly, turning his back to me so i could change.

       I let out a deep sigh and started to change my clothes. I was looking for my shirt, wearing just my underwear when i felt  like someone was staring at me.

      Oh my Satan. Swiss. I completely forgot that he was still there. I quickly put on my clothes.

      "Okay let's go." I said walking to the door. Phantom quietly stood up and followed me out of the room.

"Okay everyone, we have an hour before the ritual." Copia said. "Change to your uniforms and get ready. I'll meet you at backstage 15 minutes before the start, okay?" Copia continued. Everyone nodded and scattered around to get ready.

     I walked to the changing room to change into my uniform. I was halfway done changing my clothes when Cirrus, Cumulus and Amelia walked into the room.

      "Oh my, the uniform looks so good on you." Amelia exclaimed. "Thank you." I giggled. "Today is your big day? Are you excited?" Cirrus asked. "Yeah, i hope i don't screw up." I laughed. "That's not possible, you learnt from the best." Cumulus laughed. "You're right" I laughed.
