Connection ~ (Highschool AU - Catradora)

Chapter 17

Adora's POV

I opened my eyes to see a familiar figure that had its back turned to me with a couple of feet distance from me, I smiled and walked toward her to reach out and touch her shoulder.

"Hi, Catra," I said cheerfully finally making my way over to her and brushing my hand against her shoulder. 

She turned her head and a wide grin appeared on her face, which wasn't pleasant at all. It was distorted and creepy as her eyes began to turn red and her pupils no longer visible. I retracted my hand and began to walk backward away from her scary figure. 

"Adora...We shouldn't ever talk to each other anymore" I heard Catra say as she approached me with a sword in her hand

"Catra, what are you talking about?" I whimpered as she came closer to me and wrapped an arm around my waist.

"I hate you.." She whispered into my ear.

Before I could answer she pushed me away and aimed the point of the sword right toward me, which was about to hit me right in the stomach...

"Gah!" I yelled sitting straight up in a cold sweat. I looked around furiously and exhaled lightly trying to calm myself down from the nightmare.

"It was just a dream" I mumbled to myself.

Apparently even with Glimmer and Bow's attempt to cheer me up yesterday, I still am thinking about Catra. And, those dreams aren't exactly the best to have about Catra. I was about to get up when I suddenly felt someone's foot smack my face making me fall back.

"Glimmer, ew!" I hissed feeling her foot brush against my face once more. 

"Mmff..what Adora?" Glimmer responded groggily beginning to wake up more.

"Your foot!" I hissed once more.

She then realized that her foot was practically squashing my face and quickly removed her foot, then looking at me with an apologetic face.

"Sorry!" She whispered.

I groaned and got up to brush my teeth, "You want anything to eat?"

"Nah, let's just stop by that old coffee shop along the way to school," She said waving her hand as she laid back down to try and get more rest before school.

I walked into the bathroom and began to brush my teeth, my mind began to race on what I was gonna do without talking to Catra. She literally sits next to me in my 1st period and she is in that weird swordsmanship class with me. I still can't believe we're actually going to start taking a break from each other. Other than that, I'm planning to just cut off Antonio. Going with him to homecoming will only make things worse. 

"Adoraaaa, pass me my backpack" I heard Bow groan from the other room.

"Yeah, I got it!" I mumbled after putting my toothbrush back away and washing my face with water.

'Come on, Adora. Another new day, just with Catra ignoring you. You can survive' I told myself while staring at the mirror. The bruises from the day I fight with Catra were starting to fade. But the cuts were still a little visible, they were healed though.

I walked into my room and threw on a light gray checkered flannel with a fleece-hood jean jacket since it was starting to become colder. I decided to just wear a pair of black jeans since my other ones were ripped up..and covered in stained blood. I should just throw those away already.

I pulled out my hair that was tucked under my clothes and walked out of my room seeing Glimmer walking around in my kitchen, but Bow still on the floor.
