The Legend's Destiny

Kiss

"Scar! Over here! I think I found something!!" Caelum gestures for me to go over to him.

"We are in a library, you can't be shouting you know," I say in a hushed tone. "What did you find?"

"A book. The title is in a different language but inside it there are pictures. I think they are myths and lengends. Maybe one of them could be the one your mom told you about," Caelum opens the book to a certain page and I look over his shoulder.

"Two opposites combine. They're powers must connect. The good and evil lie in their hands as they must decide how to change the world." I recite. I shake my head in confusion. How did I just read that?

"What. Just. Happened." He says it more like a statement than a question.

"I...have no idea..."

"Do you think that's us?"

"Anything's possible. I learned that when I started shooting heat beams out of my eyes."

"I get your point." We stand there, staring at the book, not really knowing what is coming next.

"Caelum...I'm scared..." I whisper.

"Me too." I sit down next to him and he holds my hand to comfort me.

-*-*-*-*-

"Scar! Do you want a ride to school?"

"Yes please!" I grab my book bag and swing it over my shoulder as I grab a granola bar to eat in the car. "Let's pretend like what happened yesterday never happened. We didn't go to the library and we didn't find that book. Okay? I don't need to be thinking about that on top of school."

"No problem," he gives me a sideways glance but I pretend not to see it. I'm dreading going back to school. That just means I have to see Spencer with other girls making out in the hallways.

-*-*-*-*-

When we finally get to school I exit the car and say a quick thanks to Caelum. I smile thinking about Caelum. He's so nerdy and different. One day, someone is going to fall in love with him. Then she's going to break his heart. I say that because Caelum just looks like that kind of person. The kind of person who did nothing wrong except fall for the wong person. Wait. Why am I worrying about him? He's just my roommate. Nothing to worry about.

"HEY SCARLET! LOOK AT THIS!" I look up and I see Spencer kissing the slut of our school, Lizy. Good for him. Honestly, I couldn't do anythin else. If I stayed with him there would be a possibility of me hurting him. I just turn away and keep walking. Everyone starts laughing at me because they think I'm jealous. What idiots.

"THERE YOU ARE, SCAR!" Caelum comes up behind me and turns me by my shoulders. Her leans into me.

"What are y-" then our lips connect. I forget about everyone else. I forget about Spencer and Lizy. I forget about school and teachers. I forget about the world and why I ever gave a care to it. He pulls aways and winks. He leans in again and I think he is going to kiss me again, but go my disapointment, he whispers something into my ear.

"I know you weren't jealous...I just wanted everyone else to know too." I can't think properly. My brain isn't working correctly. Therefore I do what I thought I never would do. I kissed him.
