Chapter 31

LUNA'S POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I feel myself groggily waking up. In the farthest reaches of my mind I hear a faint banging sound. My mind is moving in slow motion. There is the sound again. What is that? I feel myself drifting more towards consciousness. Then, a clicking sound. I try to wake myself up but I'm just so comfortable.

Opening my eyes, I see everything around, but its blurry, the result of just opening my eyes. But, even though everything is blurry, I can still see a figure standing over me.

Just a figure, no face, no nothing. Just a shadow.

I scream and jump back as far on my bed as I'm able to. Grabbing the alarm clock on the side of my bed, I prepare to throw it, but stop when the shadow "speaks."

"Wait! Luna! Don't!", the figure shouts holding up its hands. The voice sounds male and familiar..... And the way he holds up his hands.....

"Spencer? What the hell Spencer! What are you doing in here? Get the fu- frick out!", I shout at him, remembering the previous night and then thinking of what happened last night with James....

He stepped forward out of the light, and it really is Spencer. I see... Something different in his eyes. Sorrow? Regret? No.... it couldn't be that....

"Look Luna", he said, "I don't know what to say.... Last night I was completely stupid! I messed up big time. I guess I was just jealous.... And, I guess, I'm sorry."

No way..... He just apologized! I never would have thought of Spencer as that type of person! Part of me still doesn't think of him as that kind of person....

He must have seen my look of suspicion for he went on, saying, "look, we don't have to have.... what we had before, though that would be amazing.... We can just be... Friends, if you'd like?" He winces at the word "friends" and I know why. That word is the worst to hear when in a relationship..... But do I like him?

Well, I guess it would be stupid to say I wasn't attracted to him, especially after everything that has happened. But, the question is, do I love him?

No.

If I do love someone, then that someone would be James. But, that doesn't mean that I cannot be friends with Spencer. I mean, he is my guard so why make it awkward and totally hate each other when we are forced to be around each other.... Yes, friends would be perfect.

"I forgive you", I tell him, but as he starts to walk forward, I stop him saying, "but, I just want to be friends."

His face falls. He definitely wasn't expecting that.

"Oh, well, okay then.... Uh we should get going then.... I guess", he says turning and walking out the door. I just smirk and follow him out the door, already dressed, not bothering to change last night.

We walk down the corridors in a tense silence. Both of us thinking about what happened last night. The other thing pressing on our minds is the upcoming attack on The Rebels.

A sudden buzzing noise goes off in my head, then a strange voice sounds, not pushing any deeper into my mind, so I do not block it.

"Victor wants to see both of you in his office, right now", and then he leaves.

Spencer pulls his hand up to his head, his face forming into a grimace. All of a sudden, my head kills too.

"Ow.... What just happened?", I mumble out.
