Snow Princess

Chapter 34: Undeniable Connection

I woke up, really tired. I really didn't want to get up today honestly. It was like everything I just learned was hitting me at 100 miles an hour and I didn't like it. It was overwhelming. I shouldn't have stayed up til almost three in the morning learning about my family history but I was too curious to know and understand.

What I learnt wasn't the hard part. What I would have to decide and do next was the hard part. I groaned, getting up, grabbing some clothes to change into once I finished taking a shower and headed to the girls bathroom.

The halls were really quiet but the bathroom wasn't. It was like everyone decided to get up and shower at the same time. Although you couldn't do that since there was only one shower. I groaned, waiting in line as girls poured out of the bathroom and got into the next available shower. I hung my towel up on the door, per usual,  and began to wash myself. The cold shower hit my skin so perfectly.

Once I finished, I turned to find my towel was gone and my face scrunched up. I looked around the bathroom and my eyes landed on a smirking Fallon who had my towel bunched in her hands and ran out the door giggling. So mature.

I had forgotten to lock the bathroom door. My anxiety started to crawl up my whole self. I looked frantically around trying to find something to cover myself but found nothing. Ugh, this wasn't happening.  

I started to breathe hard and then closed my eyes trying to think and looked around again, covering my body with the door.

"Luna?" I heard Romans voice echo in my ear.

"Roman?" I called, hoping he could hear me.

"Luna, what's happening? I can feel your in distress." He said calmly. His voice sounded so close to me. I didn't understand since no one was around.

"Roman, where are you?" I asked, slightly forgetting I was naked, just standing here.

"In my room. I'm communicating through you."

"Through me?" I swallowed my saliva.

"Well not really through you but like uhm a channel within your brain."

"I don't get it." I said honestly.

"Luna what happened?" Roman asked again.

"Fallon took my towel." I said pouting.

"Is anyone else there with you?"

I looked again around me. "No, no one in sight. I just took a shower."

Before I knew it I heard the door to the bathroom swing wide open and saw Romans figure appeared. He had a towel in one of his hand. His eyes searched for mine and when he saw me, he rushed to hand me the towel.

"Thank you." I took the towel then dried my body before stepping out. I looked at Roman and I knew he was fuming but I knew that he wasnt looking at my naked body.

"Hey, stop it." I said, walking over to my clothes before walking over around the tub to put them on.

"I just don't understand why she would do that to you." He retorted. His arms now crossed in thought.

"She wants war." I said bluntly. "She told me so yesterday."

"I don't understand her. That's not the girl I used to know."

I stepped out of the stall and walked over to him and gave him a hug. "Thank you for helping me."

"Anytime Princess." He smiled down at me and placed gentle kisses on top of my head.

"Can you tell me what she was like?" I asked as we made our way to his room.

"Well, she was really nice. I think nicer than you are in all honesty." Well that was shocking. "She didn't have a bad bone in her body." He continued. "She wanted to see the world, wanted to be the best version of herself, and she was determined, that's fursure."
