Breaking In Beauty

"You're testing my patience Gabrielle."

The girl walking in front of me rotated slightly, so that the right side of her face became visible. The midnight breeze blew lightly, causing Gabrielle's wavy mass of curls to flow in my direction. She cocked her head to the side and gave me one of her signature 'Don't mess with me prick.' glares. I blinked at the person in front of me. This definately wasn't the shy bookworm I met a while back.

She turned back around just as slowly as she did before, leaving me unspeakably angry. She kept walking and her heels sounded on the concrete path.

I squeezed my fists even tighter, not caring that my nails pierced my palms.

"Gabrielle! Don't you dare turn away from me!" My voice shocking me with its rage.

Gabrielle let out a small laugh. It was off, and reminded me of Bellatrix, the crazy witch from Harry Potter.

"Oh Tevan. You have made the biggest mistake you will ever make."

The next thing I knew, I was stunned to silence by the sight of her magic.
