The Legend's Destiny

Break ups...possibly?

"Scarlet..." Caelum whispers to me. Ugh, what could he possibly want at...3:00 IN THE MORNING?! WHAT THE HECK DOES HE WANT?

"Caelum, it's freaking 3 in the morning. What the heck is so important?" I slowly sit up trying to get sleep out of my eye. I feel a yawn coming but I don't let it through.

"Sorry, Scar. I just...I can't sleep...I need your help..." My eyes pretty much pop out of my head and the little piece of sleep I was worried about before has become practically become non existent. I think he noticed my sudden change in attitude because he quickly adds, "No, nothing like that. I just...I need help about Amie..." Huh? Who's Amie? Oh yeah...that slut Caelum's dating. Okay, okay, I know she isn't a slut...I just...when I think about her and Caelum's kissing and hugging and being close...I just don't know what comes over me...

"Do you need help on how to ask her out or something?" I try to act like I'm totally fine with it, but there's something that makes my stomach turn and makes me feel uneasy.

"Actually...quite the opposite...I need help on how to...break up with her...you know...without hurting her feelings." He gives me a sad and hopeful smile.

"It's not possible."

"Huh?"

"No matter how you break up with her, it's going to hurt her. I say this from experience. You can let her down easy, or be really nice about it, but it with still hurt as heck. She will put on a strong face because she doesn't want you to see her weak. She will re-play the memories in her head like a movie. For a second it will seam like it's really happening, but then she will realize it was just a memory. Only a memory. Then she will get sad all over again because she is still thinking about these things while she knows you are thinking about someone else. Someone who makes you happier than she ever did. So you can do everything you can, but she will hurt so much that she doesn't know why life is still worth living. Yes, this does occur, and yes it happens more often than not." I finish my small rant.

"I...okay...I'm sorry if I upset you, Scar. I didn't mean to..." He turns to leave and I think about stopping him, I really do, but sometimes letting them go is the first step. Even if it is just to the next room over.

What shall I do for 7 hours before training? I could read, swim, sleep, eat. Hmm... Bzzz. Hey a text!

'hey scarlet wnna go out tdy?'

Or I could go on a date with Spencer. Okay, sounds alright.

'Sure. Pick me up @ 10?' I reply.

'Can't wait :* bbg' Okay, that gives me an hour. What to wear... I walk over to my closet full of clothes. Gosh, I love living with Caelum... I settle with wearing a pretty white spring dress and go on with my makeup. I just go with the regular since it isn't THAT special. After I'm done I decide to check up on Caelum. Usually he says good morning to me everyday. I skip down the hall, feeling all giddy inside. "Caelum?" I ask, peaking into his room. There he is, sitting at his desk looking at...a wall. Huh? "Uhh...Caelum?" He seams startled and he jumps up and turns to me.

"Hi..Scar..." he looks almost...scared. What?

"What's wrong?" I walk over to him and I put my hand on his shoulder.

"I broke up with Amie last night...I couldn't sleep after that because I kept on thinking about what you said and..." He got cut off my the doorbell ringing. I give him a sympathetic smile and hug. Not just a hug though. I felt sparks. Fireworks. From a hug...? I shrug it off and answer the door.

"Hi, Spencer!" I hug him. No spark or fireworks. I can't do this anymore. How can I date someone where I can't see a future? "Spencer...I change my mind. I can't go with you today...or any day."

"What...what are you talking about, Scarlet? Please don't tell me you are breaking up with me again."

Tears start to fill my eyes. It was hard enough the first time, and now I have to do it a second time. "It's not fair to me or you if I keep going along with this. I like you, but I could never love you. Not anymore. I'm sorry, Spencer, but I just can't. He doesn't say anything back, which hurt me more than him yelling at me. He just nodded and turned and left. If I could, I would watch him slowly walk away, but I knew I would cry, so I softly closed the door. The funny thing it, I cried anyways. I just sank to the floor. Goodbye, Spencer. This time, for good.

"Good afternoon, Robert." I say immediately after I spot him. Caelum and I went to get our gear after I pulled myself together. It's time to train. Even though I'm not in the mood, I owe this to my mother and to Caelum's father. To them, who will forever be who we are and what we stand for.

"Hello, guys. Ready to train?" He meant it rhetorically because he didn't wait for an answer. "Do we focus on the magic you have already discovered. Come, follow me." He starts walking down this long and narrow hallway, painted blue and red in a swirling pattern. He leads us into two different rooms. Me into one painted blue, and Caelum into one painted red. I know because the wall separating us is made out of glass. Robert closes the door and his voice comes on over a PA.

"These rooms are used to train with your certain abilities. Scarlet, when you shoot heat beams, the room will become cold and will freeze the laser. Caelum, when you shoot ice beams, the room will heat up and melt your laser. This is one of your only independent training exercise because you learn more by teaching each other." He finally stops talking and that's when it comes to me. How am I supposed to shoot them out when under pressure? I can only do it when I'm furious.

Something tells me I'm not going to do very well during training, and it's only been two minutes.

Hey guys, it's been a while, sorry about that. I was on vacation and I was unable to write yesterday. HAVE NO FEAR I AM BACK! This was kind of a longer one...it was going to be even longer but I decided to cut it short a bit. So thanks for almost 500 reads! So cool and just to tell you, Jasmine and I are already planning on how to celebrate! It's going to be a heck of a lot of fun and I hope you guys stay tuned because I assure you, you aren't ready for what's ahead of you.
