Two Worlds Apart

Chapter 10: Merlin

   "You're either in my side, on my side, or in my fucking way. Choose  wisely"                               - Bri ❦

                          Brielle

I was walking through the halls of the school while Stella is catching up to me.

"Hey wait up!" she says as she finally reach me

"What" I say as I turned around to face her and crossed my arms

She wrapped an arm in mine, "What's up with you and Theon?"

"What do you mean?" I asked as we started walking again

"Well there was some tension back there in the dining hall" I raised a brow,"Tension?"

"Yes well not your normal tension like tension tension. Something happened between the two of you last night, didn't you?" She says as she raises a brow.

"Nothing happened Stell"

"Yes there is you left the party before it even started and so did Theon and as far as I know you were looking forward to that party" she said as we stopped walking

"Okay fine something did happen between us but you have to keep quiet okay?"

"Okay, now spill" she says very eager to know.

"Okay me and Theon kissed last night-"

"Wha-" I covered her mouth before she could even finish her words as people looked at us.

"Keep you damn mouth shut" I say as I put down my hand

"Okay. But what" she whispered I nod my head in agreement.

"He was drunk so he probably didn't mean it"

"Did you like it?"

"Like what?"

"I mean did you like the kiss, did you pull away?" She asks

"Yes I did like it but,..." I look at her, her eyes gleaming with curiosity "but I pushed him away"

"What?" Her smile dropped

"I had to Stell I can't have him distract me, he's my enemy"

"You do know if you keep pushing those feelings away, it'll come back stronger" I says reassuring me

"I don't give a fuck not when I'm this close on proving my father wrong" I blurted out

"Bri...." She says as she puts and hand on my shoulder

"I don't want to hear it Stell" I say as I glance at her

"I wasn't going to but you have to know you're more than you know, yo know?" she said her eyes filled with worry. I know she means well but the Trials is the only thing that I can prove my father wrong. All I wanted was for him to look my way but all he sees is her back-up child

"I know..." I gave her a weak smile

"Well I'm going home, are you coming home too" she asks

"No I'm helping Darcy in the library"

"Ah always the bookworm aren't you?"

"You know me" I say as I head to the library "Bye Stell I'll see you tomorrow"

"Bye!!" She says as I turn my back and head for the library.

I head out the headmasters office. And I was walking through the empty halls of this fucking prison someone drags my arm and pressed me against the wall and held a knife against my throat. "What the fuck?!" I say as I look up and see "Brielle?!"
