Taken

Chapter 16

I can't believe that I broke up with Matthew. Neither did he. And  to tell you the truth, I couldn't see the way he looked at me. I didn't  mean to break any hearts. I didn;t. Really! I just wanted to, you know, just get some free time. Everyone has to understand, I'm not your average girl. But he doesn't know this. Maybe if I told him he would of understand, what I'm going through. Yes I have to do it, and I will. I can trust him, I think.

I sneaked into Jamie's room and grabbed her phone. Dialed the number in, and waited for Matthew to pick up.

"Hi Jamie?" he said in confusion

"No this is Elina--

"Good-

"Please. Wait I have something to tell you."

"Okay. Go on." he said

"It's....you're not going to believe it." I said

"Tell me."

"You have to promise you can't tell anyone. It's serious."

"What's going on. Spit it out."

"Okay." I said pausing, " I'm a princess."

He laughs, not an hearty one, but a cold one, " What Princess of Heartbreakers."

Now that kind of heart. But I did break his heart. I couldn't believe he didn't believe me. Not everyday someone comes out and tells you that they're a princess.

"No. I'm serious." I said huffing into the phone, " Come over and I'll show you."

It took a couple of minuted until he said yes, but he did. How am I going to explain this. And then an idea snapped in my head. I ran to my room and dropped to the floor. Under the hardwood floor there was a picture of me, as a princess. You know like a before an after.  I opened it, and snashed it out eagarly. I stared at it, for a moment, it was something I never thought I'd see it again.  The loud doorbell rang, knocking me out of my moment, and I quickly ran to open the door. Akwardness filled the room..

"Can I come in?" Matthew asked, still not looking at me

I nodded and opened the door more. He walked in and dropped him bag on the floor. And stood in the middle of the living room looking at me.

"Sit down." I said

He sat down and I slwoly walked over as his eye intently raked me up and down. I glanced at him and he stopped looking at me. I sat down.  I turned to him and said, " So Like--

"You expect me to believe that."

"Yes. I do." I said sighing, " I'm the Princess of Persusas. Princess Elina."

He looked at me, " Just because you guys-

"Look!" I said shoving the picture in his hands

He looked at me and then at the paper. A couple of times of that, and then his eyes stopped at me. It was asking alot of questions.

"I fell in love with a-

"Please don't use love."

"I do!" He said standing up, " Why are you here?"

I grabbed in wrist, " I am in great danger."

"Like what?"

"Someones trying to steal my crown."

"Oh" he said pacing around, " You couldn't just tell me!"

"I don't know."

"Does Josh know?" he said stopping.

I looked away and then at him, " Yes he does. But you can't tell him you know."

"So what now. I'm suppose to kneel to you."

"Please don't."

"I don't understand why you couldn't tell me." he said grabbing him bag, " Is there anymore secrets you want to tell me."

The door flings open and there comes Josh walking in. At this time, I was glad he came in. I couldn't answer that question and I didn't want to lie to him again. I couldn't. But I did.

"What is Matt doing here?" Josh said, finally saying a word to me.

"I was just leaving." he said, " I'll talk to you later Josh."

When Matthew left, I quickly tried to remove my presence from Josh. I ran up the stairs but I could of feel his eyes on me. And all I heard walking up my room is that,

"I'm telling Matthew."
