Legend says that one those two people finds their other half they will be stronger than anybody else.If two flames from the same spark...If two earths from the same seed...If two waters from the same drop...If two airs from the same wind...They may...
I rang the doorbell.My great-uncle's wife opened the door."Hey there cutie pie!We missed you so much!"It was a bone-crushing hug but I loved it."Wow.Needing imense circulation here."She let go and led me to the living room."Oh Rose!You're back!"I hugged and greeted my whole family.Door bell rang."That's probably Peter.I'll go get it."When I ran to the door.Servants had already opened the door."Rosalind Monroe."I ran at him and he dropped his bags and hugged me.He turned me around and gave a little kiss afterwards."I missed you."He chuckled."Yeah...I can see that.I missed you too."He kissed my forehead.Then my grandparents came.He let go of me and cleared his throat.He walked towards my grandfather and shook his hand."Nice to meet you sir.Peter Everett."Then he moved onto my grandma.Instead shaking her hand firmly like my grandfather he landed a kiss on her hand."Very nice to meet you too ma'am."
"He has manners.I like him."I laugh at the sight."I think I don't have to make the introductions anymore.But to make it short.Grandpa,grandma.Peter.Peter.Grandma,grandpa."Then Hector and Babette came flying to my shoulders."Hey lovely.Hey motherfucker."Babette kissed my cheek."You Hector don't deserve such a lovely dragon as Babette alright?!You're lucky!"Then Peter and my grandparents gave that look to me."Oh my God please let me talk to my dragons in peace without you all giving me those looks!Geez!"I walked away and took Peter to his room."This is your room.The room next to you is mine and the one next to mine is my cousin Alex's.I'm going to see how he's doing.He said he was going to write to a friend."He nodded and I went to see Alex with my dragons.
"Hey.Are you alright?"He nodded."My friggin mundane friends.I hate them."I sighed."There was no letter were there?You just wanted to be alone."I slowly sat next to him.He placed his head on my shoulder."What happened?"He sighed."Just because my parents can't come to the functions and events of the school my principle called me in the other day.Ever since then everybody calls me a orphan.But I have parents.They just work in another realm.Now make it make sense for them so I don't have to lose my senses!"I took a deep breath."First of all calm down.Second of all...let them talk.Why do you care what they think?How did you think I made it through four years of hell named middle school?Dismiss them.Tune them out.Works for me.It can work for you too."
I got him under my arm and slowly started playing with his hair."Guys could you leave us alone?"Babette left but Hector stayed and whispered."There is something I want to talk to you about."I nodded and he flew away too."It's alright you know?"I chuckled."Think about how clueless they actually are.We know about magical creatures more than they do.Hell we are magical creatures.The closest they got to knowing our world is Harry Potter and that's because J.K Rowling was actually an elemental.So she twisted and turned it and mixed it up a lot and came up with this serie.Which actually quiet good.I watched it like hundred times."He laughed.
"Thanks."I sighed."You're welcome."I smiled and turned to him."My boyfriend is here."He jumped out of the bed."NO!"I laughed."Why?"He started counting reasons with his fingers saying that he isn't good for me or that he just wants me because I'm appearently 'hot'.Yada,yada,yada.
"If you could just come with me and meet him then you might actually start liking him or find reasons that are actually there for you to not like him.Alright?"He nodded and left."Geez."I went to my room and changed into something nice and cute.

Then I heard talking outside my door and opened it and there they were.Alex and Peter."I walk her to meals.""But I'm her boyfriend.I'm not gonna be here every holiday dude."I cleared my throat and got their attention."How about niether of you escort me to the lunch table and I just go by myself?"Then Hector and Babetter came."You guys are hungry?"They nodded and we three left leaving them back.

"She's very independent and strong."He chuckled."I know.Dud ethe things she went through?Worse than hell.Yet she's standing here like nothing happened,care-free and I envy her.I'M really proud to be her cousin.I just wish she would try harder."What is it that she went through?I respect her thinking and wanting to be a little private but...I need to be there for her if this is going to work.
After lunch and some time with her family dinner came.And it was lovely.Just like my girlfriend.She loves her family very much.There are some things that doesn't makes sense though.Like where is her parents?Why does she never talk about them?What is she hiding in the bathroom that she lockes the door when she's in and when she gets out.I-I-I don't know.But I need to know.What's with this seven month thing?I need answers.
Afer dinner I pulled her aside and we went to her room."What is it?""I respect that you have your own stuff but what is the point if I know so little about you and you know everything about me?"

I knew this day was coming.I pulled together every piece of courage I had and spoke up."Ask away."He sighed."You live with your grandparents if you're not in school?"I nodded."Why?"I chuckled."Funny story.My parents basically disowned me after I got sorted as a Dragondeth."He shook his head."That's not funny Rose.That's a serious thing."I looked up to the ceiling."I know."I looked back at him."But if I take it seriously...the results won't be good."I looked down at our hands and a couple tears dropped.I wiped them away as fast as I could.I don't want to cry.I don't.It's weak.I can't be weak.
I'm a Monroe.I'm a Dragondeth.I'm a Fire.I don't get the luxury to be weak.I stood up from my bed."Uhm...I need you to leave Peter.I-I-I need to be alone."He tired to hug me but I didn't let him."Please just leave.I'm begging you."He stepped backwards looking at me then he left.I was pacing around my room when I saw that little black bunny again.I opened the window again and let it in."How come you find me at my lowest?"I smiled at it trying to push back the tears."I should name you if you're going to keep showing up."Then I talked to it about my problems.
