The Love, Forbidden Yet True

To County or Not To Country?

After I had read moms note I looked over my stuff once more, noticing how she had set everything up just like my room at home with a few other additions, a bar fridge so I could keep some stuff in my room. A lock for the fridge and my favourite bedding.

I knew I would be laughed at for the bedding but I couldn't help it, it was Sailor Mini moon, or Sailor Chibiusa for those who led the Japanese name, from Sailor Moon. She reminded me that even as an adult you need to think like a kid at times and realize that no matter how hard a problem was you had to keep pushing forward.

I digressed, my dorm room was awesome. That was when my roommate came in and he looked around with a chuckle.  "Would you look at that. A girl roomy, I couldn't get any luckier if I had a doe walk in front if my huntin' rifle while bein' out with my pops! Names Bucky, it's a darn right pleasure ta meet'cha miss!"

The man belonging to the southern voice wore a cowboy hat and a red flannel t-shirt tied in a knot at the bottom and tight blue Jeans with a belt. His boots were, of course, cowboy boots though his skin was deeply tanned and his brown hair was kept semi-short. Just enough to see around the hat but not be unattractive.

It was when I saw his eyes that I stopped and stared "how are your eyes so purple? Even contacts cant easily get that colour..... it's so pretty " I asked going closer to him as he let out a soft chuckle.

"I guess ya ain't been awakenin' just yet than little lady. Just'ya wait until ya get your powers. You are gonna be beautiful if I read tha name on our dorm door properly. A proper member of the infamous Sterna House.... my oh my little lady, you ain't seen nothin' till ya seen ya family's powers. Just'ya wait." His country tone came out broke me out of my trance like state as I walked back to my side and started to rummage through a few of my boxes to see what mom hadn't put away.

-awakened? What could he mean by that... I didn't understand this, any of it. Maybe mom could, if she answered her phone. Maybe a text message- I thought. My mind was in a whirl of emotion, my hands shaking. "Hey mom, it's me. Your baby girl.... my room mate mentioned something called 'being awakened'.... what does that mean?" I texted mom.

The text that I had just read chilled me and made me so explicitly angry. "You will understand in a few days my Little Flame.... trust your mama, I know what it feels like. I love you. Be strong" I let out a verbal scream clear frustration."how is THAT an answer mother, for the love of the Fires." I said and threw my phone at my bed watching it bounce left the room, slamming the door shit as I stomped through the dorm areas it wasn't moments later that I ran into a mother girl, her hair was so blue with sea foam white early the bottom she looked like a walking ocean.

"I'm so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going" her voice was soft, they one thinks of a gentle lapping of water upon the golden sand of a beach, speaking if golden I noticed her skin seemed to be the perfect golden tan of a marshmallow that had been perfectly cooked. "Why is everyone here so....so fucking PERFECT" I growled in clear furstration of how it wasn't fair, I wasn't even pretty in my own eyes yet everyone here was like a god or goddess. It pissed me off to a point it was hard to believe I was even myself back then, it's funny to think about as I tell you all this... it wasn't just that everyone was perfect. Everyone was awakened.

I know, you don't understand what I mean by that  hut you will, just like I hada learned. It had taken me weeks, but for your sake I'll give you the quick version of the weeks. I digressed again, back to the girl.

"Perfect... I wouldn't say we are perfect... not in the slightest. That's why we are here at Savri College..." it was then she looked at me and gasped,  backing up and bowing. "You're the Sterna House... I'm sorry, how rude of me....I shouldn't even talk to you... my house is such a lesser house.... forgive me Mistress Sterna" she said and took off running in what seemed to be shame.... what was it about being from.my family that made so many people act like that...
