The Darkness Into Light

Awoken

I sat in the dinning hall and ate a biscuit and watched Esther standing, leaning on a wall. Why can't I get him out of my head I definitely am not over him, I almost feel like I could easily fall back into his arms... but I can't and I won't. As I stated he directed his attention towards me I felt my heart race in terror. I can't take it I'm so heart broken, I gave everything to him and he just didn't care. I stood up and tried to make it to the bathroom but he was standing near the restroom and before I got there, I broke down in sobs. His expression changed from hatred to sorrow, but maybe he's just trying to trick me I won't fall into that trap. My vision became blurry from the tears and I could barely see to make my way to the bathroom. I walked slowly and then Esther grabbed me and guided me to the restroom. Maybe he did change maybe I can be his friend and nothing more. As the door shut behind me I walked to the sink and wiped my eyes thinking to myself I am ok, I won't let this get to me. I went to open the door to leave the bathroom when suddenly I felt a pain in my head, headache? No it can't be it feels nothing like a headache. A song slipped from my lips and suddenly I was falling, smacking my head on the doorknob. I screamed in pain and tried to stand but I couldn't, the door opened and Esther and a teacher were looking down at me... with fear in there eyes. The teacher put her hand over her mouth while saying, "She looks more like a demon then she does a siren!" Esther picked me up and walked me out of the bathroom and walked the halls until he was laying me in a bed in the infirmary. The nurse gave me a blue liquid and had me drink she then attached me to a machine. She stared at the monitor and after a while she finally said, "She is a siren there is no other indication of any other being." Esther nodded then knelt down next to me, "Darling how did we come to this. I wish I could hold you in my arms... but instead I am forced to be your enemy." He said while putting my hair behind my ears. I shook his hand away, "No ones forcing nothing. You broke my heart and then when you didn't get your way you physically hurt me. This is on you." He stood and said, "I'm a monster I have no love in my heart. I'm surprised I felt anything for you." His bitter words cut through me like a knife, "If you had no love you would have felt nothing... you can feel emotions your just rejecting them. Now why is that?" I questioned. His face turned with anger, "Enough! I will still make you regret what you did!" He turned and walked away leaving me thinking, why do you hide your feelings? I sat in that room and stared out the window at the sun that was getting lower by each passing hour. The door opened and I snapped my head in that direction and looked at the worried look of my friend, Dante. He hurried over to me and said, "That's why you weren't in class. I heard about what happened after school and came as quickly as I could." I smiled, "Your concern is greatly appreciated. It's good to have someone who cares." The door opened, "Hey I care too. Did you already forget about me?" I laughed, "Of course not Travis, but I wasn't to sure you really cared about me." He walked closer, "I'm a friend I'm here for you, so I do care." He answered. I waved my hand telling them to come closer and embraced them in a hug. I gave a sly grin that made them look at me and I said, "Now let's break out of here."
