Connection ~ (Highschool AU - Catradora)

Chapter 32

Catra's POV

My hands trembled as my eyes darted towards the folder. I visibly gulped and went to grab it, but I felt myself hold back.

"Catra.." Glimmer mumbled, grabbing my shoulder.

I instantly looked towards her hand, "S-Sorry, I'm being a pussy".

Glimmer clicked her tongue and went to grab it herself, but I stopped her. She looked at me confused but I just gave her a reassuring smile.

My eyes then returned the folder with Shadow Weaver's name. I sighed and brought my hands into the folder and grabbed it with both hands. The anticipation of seeing what would be in the folder built so much anxiety in my chest.

My shaky hands opened the folder and all there was a book diary. My eyes flared and threw the book of too the side to see nothing else.

"What?!" I yelled, frantically looking through the rest of the cabinet to find anything else. The older folder was irrelevant though.

"Catra, what the hell?" Glimmer said, pulling me away from the cabinet.

I growled and pushed her off me, "There's nothing! There has to be something else, crime records, stuff about us! Nothing but a stupid fucking diary about that ugly whore!"

Glimmer stood silent for a good minute.

"Well?! Say something?!" I yelled again.

"Well...have you even looked at the diary?" She mumbled.

I crossed my arms, "There's nothing in there I bet".

"Never know till you look" She hummed, walking over to the thrown diary and handing it back to me.

I grumbled and open the diary.

Entry #1:

Adora and Catra just arrived at my house, this is such a nuisance. I should have just been thrown into jail for 1 year.

My eyes widened, this was about us. ..And Shadow Weaver was going to jail?

"Uh...What is this?" Glimmer asked, from behind my shoulder.

I ignored her and flipped to the next page.

Entry #2:

Adora is a very good child, can't say the same for Catra. She tore up the couch, even though she is of the human species, she acts like a feline.

"Ugh, she's such a bitch" I growled.

I did not feel like wanting to flip to the next page, so I skipped to a random page in the diary. Which I instantly regretted when I began to read it.

Entry #64:

Adora and Catra seemed to have gotten close, I don't enjoy it. I should try and separate them, I don't want Adora to get attached to Catra that much.

I unsheathed my claw and ripped out the page, "I'm done. I'm not reading this anymore".

I felt Glimmer instantly wrap an arm around my shoulder, "It's going to be okay, just..breathe. We just need to find valuable information in the diary, not read them all.

I shook my head.

"Come on, Catra. You're stronger than this" She whispered.

I exhaled slowly, "You're right, let's just get this over with"

I flipped to another random page.

Entry #92

I found Adora and Catra sleeping together, somewhat closer. It seems they have formed an even stronger connection when I told Adora that Catra is not a good person. Catra's also been called to the principal's office for slapping a girl. Adora took the blame for it when it wasn't her fault.
