Chapter 4
I heard someone knock gently on my door, "rise and shine sweet heart" I sat up in bed to notice Aretha enter my new room with a plate with food on it. "Oh good morning Aretha" I slow start to get up. "Oh no don't bother to get up yet, have breakfast first" Aretha hands me the plate which has fried eggs and bacon.
"Oh thank you for the meal Aretha" I give her a friendly smile, "oh no problem and you can just call me mum" Aretha returns my friendly smile. "Oh but I couldn't possibly call you mum" I stare at her "well not right away of course it will take some time" and as she said that she sped walked out the door before I could say something.
As I finished my breakfast I got up and stretched. "Man I haven't felt tis good in ages" I got to look at myself in the mirror but then I found my school uniform folded neatly on a seat with a note saying...
Morning Cadenza this is your school uniform, get dressed and meet me outside. From Vylad
So I got dressed and meet Vylad down stairs. "Morning cadenza" I turn to see D'Artagnan waving at me "morning" I wave back. Vylad was in the boy's uniform, "ready to get going" "of course this isn't my first day like someone I know" I smirk at Vylad. "Hey that's no fair"
I run out the door sprinting down the street heading towards the school gate. "Hey wait up" Vylad yelled at me from behind, he was quickly catching up to me but since my wounds healed I ran even faster than I have ever before.
I stopped at the front of the gate waiting for Vylad, "looking for me" I felt someone tap me on the shoulder I turn around but no one was there, I felt another tap except it was on the other shoulder I turn once again but no one was there.
I then heard giggling leaves began to fall onto my head, I looked up to find Vylad hanging upside down holding his hands over his mouth then as soon as I spotted him he started bursting out laughing.
"Oh haha" I stare at him then pulled his shirt down causing him to fall to the ground. "Hey" Vylad stood up dusting himself off "what was that for" he pouted at me. I started giggling at him. "Cadenza.... CADENZA" I heard someone yelling my name from behind "Lucinda?" I looked even harder "LUCINDA" she ran up to me and gave me a huge smile.
"Cadenza where have you been you just disappeared last week, oh and before you say anything Prom was postponed for some unknown reason but its tomorrow night and your coming". "What's this about Prom?" crap I totally forgot Vylad was still here.
"Hmm who's that... oh wow who's the hottie?" Lucinda asked and for some reason that irritated me a lot. "Lucinda meet my friend Vylad, Vylad meet my best friend Lucinda". Just as soon as I introduced them to each other Lucinda was fawning over him I swear I could see love hearts in her eyes. "CADENZA!!!!!" I turned once again to see Travis. "Travis long times no see" I stop in front of him I could see Travis was breathing heavily... "umm are you okay?" Travis stood up straight "are you really asking me if I'm okay" Travis's face was dead serious "Travis?" for some reason something inside me began to melt.
"WHERE WERE YOU, YOU JUST DISSAPEARED WITHOUT TELLING ME ANYTHING FOR A WHOLE WEEK, I WENT TO YOUR HOUSE TO FIND OUT IF YOU WERE OKAY, YOUR HOUSE WAS SERIOUSLY DAMAGED.... GUNSHOTS.... BULLETS BLOOD FOUND EVERY EVEN A DEAD BODY...... I WAS SERIOUSLY WORRIED ABOUT YOU AND HERE YOU ARE ENTERING SCHOOL SMILING AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED THINKING THAT NONE OF US WEREN'T EVEN WORRIED ABOUT YOU ONE BIT!!!!! DAMN IT CADENZA"
Travis began to tear up, "Travis I'm sorry" I go to place my hand on his arm but he pulls away. "Travis I'm so sorry" I held my hand up.
"I WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT YOU..... YOU'RE THE CLOSEST PERSON TO ME, DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!"
At that moment I was pulled into a warm embrace before I realised it Travis was hugging me tightly as if he was never going to let me go again. He buried his face on my shoulder.... Even though I didn't see it I could tell he was crying. "I'm sorry Travis I promise I won't do that again". I gently place my hand on his head.
This was the first time I've ever seen Travis like this. In the corner of my eye I could see Lucinda shipping majorly but the look on Vylad's face was an emotion I have never seen on his face before it was almost like he was sulking, sad, or serious? I don't know but I won't ever hurt Travis like that again.
I'm in class now and everyone is just staring at me as if I'm something you would find in one of those museums. I was sitting beside Travis and Lucinda was sitting in front of me. At that time the vice principal walked in with.... Vylad? , I was tempted to stand up or throw something at Vylad but I would draw a lot more attention to myself even more than I already have and I don't want that
"Good morning class, you now have a new student in your class would you like to introduce yourself" Vice principal looked over his shoulder at Vylad. "Yes I would love to, Hi my name is Vylad and I'll be joining your class now please take care of me" he the gives off one of his bright smiles.
"He did not just say that" I felt as though my soul was going to fly right out of my body. The girls all started screaming and yelling to Vylad to sit next to them. "Cadenza do you know that guy?" Travis asks curiously "well sort of he's like an acquaintance of mine".
For some reason Vylad gave me the same look from before but this time it was meaner than before. "What's wrong with him" he then went to sit next to my arch enemy Chloe that back stabbing jerk who thinks she runs the school and you knows what was even worse Vylad was flirting with her.
Out of all the girls he could have flirted with it had to be her.... Ugh not that I cared about who he flirted with... what is this feeling ugh I don't like it... go away go away.
"Um Cadenza are you okay?" Travis asked concerned "yeah why?" I asked curious to why he would ask. "Well your face is turning red" "WHAT!!!" I shouted then I looked around and gave a little giggle.
