➰Cecily (TMI FANFIC)➰

Training

"Rise and shine!" A perky voice said outside my door and moved on down the hall to make more enemies. I stirred in my bed slamming the pillow over my head. If I didn't get out of bed, then the day wouldn't start therefore nothing bad could happen right?

I groaned at my idiotic thinking. Carter was here now and he would help me with whatever he was hiding. Now I just needed to get it out of him.

Another pounding on the door sounded and I groaned in reply louder than last time.

Silence came and went as the knocks came again. I ungracefully rolled out of bed and stomped to the door destine to scream at who ever was on the other side of the door.

Almost braking the door from its hinges, I opened the worn wood and saw a girl a year older then myself standing tall and strong. Her hair was a dark brown color that swept into her bright hazel eyes. She wore stiff looking leather gear like I had seen Zane wear except this showed off every curve this girl had.

Jealousy stirred inside me at the beauty of this girl. Just the way she composed herself told me she knew just how breathe taking she was.

"So, your Cecily." Her gaze looked me over from head to toe and I could feel my hair had frizzed up from sleep and the pajamas I wore hung around me like bags. "Not much too look at are you?"

My eyebrows furrowed and I opened my mouth as she added,"Guess I have nothing to be jealous of then." She shoved past me jostling my shoulder and she invited herself into my room.

"Excuse me, but you can't just...."

She flopped down on my bed,"You kissed that Carter kid, right?"

My words stuck in my throat as I began a growl.

"Zane told me you did. He was really pissed about that." She sat up suddenly,"Do you like him?"

I brushed my fingers through my hair and sighed in irritation,"Do I like who?"

"Zane?" Her eyes watched me like a tiger stalking its prey. One wrong move and I was going to pay for it.

"No why would you...."Then I realized just who I was talking too. "Wait, are you Stephanie?"

"Yeah, why?"

I let a smirk slide across my lips feeling the power fall into my hands,"Nothing, you just act exactly like Zane. Now I see why you two are together, although I always thought opposites attracted."

I had struck a nerve as she rose from the bed and her face grew hard. "Get changed." she started toward the door,"We're training in ten minutes."

The door slammed shut behind her and I knew training would be a hell of an experience.

Voices came from what I remembered as the training room. Opening the door I found Stephanie throwing knives at the wall and Zane leaning lazily against a pillar. But, where there was Zane there was...

"Hey, Cecily." His voice slipped from the darkness and I whipped around to look at him. He had changed clothes into darker ones that only bleached the color out of his hair and skin.

I stood my ground,"Hi, Carter. Looks like Zane wasn't kidding when he said he'd guard you."

"Sure wasn't. He's quiet the asshole worse then Tyler is." he smirked and I gave a weary one back. "So...." he dragged out the word in a hiss,"You look just like one of them."

"Because I am one of them." He glided closer until he was barely an inch away.

"You aren't anything like them."
