Title: True Feelings

Author: Reivin Romanovski

Chapter 1: Good News

"xoxoxo"

A red haired boy sat alone at a college café. His icy blue eyes, now dull and sad looking, stared attentively at the notebook in front of him.

He had a coffee in his right hand, and a pencil in his left hand as he wrote away angrily on the paper.

"Hey Tala." Said a girl as she came up to him. She took the seat in front of him and smiled. She had dark brown hair and light brown eyes. She was actually considered pretty good-looking by most of the guys.

"Hi Katie." He said, not even bothering to look up from his writing.

"So Tala, you want to hang out tonight" You know, see a movie" We could ditch the college ceremony if you want." Katie said as she winked and giggled a bit.

"No. I have something else to do." He said as he took a sip from his coffee.

"Come on Tala! Ever since the start of college, you've never dated anyone! You have to learn to have fun."

"I'm not interested."

"Come on Tally, you know you have to date sometime."

Tala abruptly stood up which cause Katie to jump a bit. He growled and closed his notebook. "Don't ever call me that again. Only one person can call me that and it's not you." and with that he walked off, leaving Katie with her mouth open.

Tala walked out of the café and headed to his room. It had been two years, he was now at 21. Two years since Ben died. Two years since Reivin had been taken away from him. He got to his room and opened the door and went in. He threw the notebook on the table and went into the kitchen. He started pouring the rest of the coffee down the sink. There was a knock on the door and he looked up. "Come in." he said. The door opened and he looked over to see who it was. Ray.

"Hey." Ray said. Tala nodded in response. "We're gonna perform at the ceremony?"

"Yeah." Tala said as he went over to the couch and sat down.

"You're not happy with it?" Ray asked as he raised an eyebrow.

Tala stared at the ceiling for a while. It was like he suddenly spaced out. He let out a long sigh and then looked over at Ray. "Do you think she forgot?"

"What?"

"Do you think she forgot?" Tala asked again.

"Reivin?" Ray asked and Tala nodded. "I don't think she did."

"Ray, it's been two years. She hasn't called, she hasn't e-mailed me, and she hasn"t even send a letter." Tala said as he slumped down on the couch. "Be honest, do you think she forgot?"

"No."

"I said be honest."

"I am being honest! I don't think she forgot. You should know better." Ray said as he sighed.

"I guess." Tala said as he sighed. He looked down on the necklace around his neck. Reivin's necklace.

"Look, I just came here to check if you were going to the ceremony or not. So I better be going." Ray said as he got up.

"Okay." Tala said. "So, how're things with you and Tara?"

"Same." Ray said as he shrugged.

"Did you eat her pet canary again?"

"Only by accident! But I'm buying her a new one tomorrow." Ray said as he left down the hallways and Tala shook his head.

Tala went back inside and sighed. Nothing to do now except wait till it was time for the ceremony.

Xoxoxo

Tala got to the college ceremony and went in. He really didn't want to be here, but they made him go anyway. He looked around as he headed backstage. The place was crowded. A lady got on the stage and tapped the microphone.

"Hello everyone. I'm Mrs. Collins. Most of you may know me from past years and some may not. I am the principal here at Black Stallions College. I'm all out for freedom and that's why the school is the way it is. Now, the ceremonies are always boring so we have our usual entertainment. Please give it up for Third Dimension!" she said and everyone clapped at the last part.

The curtains opened to reveal three guys. One with slate and blue hair on drums, one with long black hair on keyboard, and one with red hair and ice blue eyes on guitar and at the microphone.

Tala nodded back at Kai and Ray and the music started. Then Tala started singing.

"Thought I ran into you down on the street

Then it turned out to only be a dream

I made a point to burn all of the photographs

She went away and then I took a different path

I can remember the face, but I can't recall the name

Now I wonder how whatsername has been

Seems she disappeared without a trace

Did she marry old what's his face?"

I made a point to burn all of the photographs

She went away and I took a different path

I remember the face, but I can't recall the name

Now I wonder whatsername has been

Remember, whatever

It seems like forever ago

Remember, whatever

It seems like forever ago

The regrets are useless, in my mind

She's in my head

I must confess, the regrets are useless

She's in my head

From so long ago and in the darkest night

If my memory serves me right

I'll never turn back time

Forgetting you but not the time."

The music died down and everyone started clapping. The curtains closed and Mrs. Collins stepped back on the stage to finish the speech.

"Still thinking about her?" Kai asked Tala with a raised eyebrow.

"How would you feel if the person you loved most was taken away from you? But how could you know, Ka?" You're married." Tala said and headed to leave. "Look, I'm not staying for the rest of this thing. I'm heading back now."

"And I thought you were a grouch." Ray said to Kai as they watched Tala leave.

Xoxoxo

Tala got to his apartment and the phone rang. He groaned and decided to let the machine answer it. He went over into the kitchen and served himself a cup of water. Pretty soon, the machine started.

"Hey this is Tala Valkov. I'm not here now 'cause I'm at my college ceremony. By the time I'll get back I'll be super tired but leave a message anyway and I'll get back to you tomorrow. Maybe. BEEP."

"Hey Tala…Um, hi. Listen, its Reivin." Tala's eyes widened at that and he started listening to the message. "Look, I know I haven't called in two years and I'm really sorry. Claude wouldn't let me call; not to mention that it was super hard to get a hold of your new number! Anyway, if you're there, please pick up. We need to talk. Please?"

Tala went to the phone and quickly picked it up. "Hello" Reivin, is it really you?"

"Tala? Oh my God! I'm so happy to finally talk to you!"

"Reivin, I'm so happy to hear from you again!" Tala said, his once dull blue eyes suddenly brightening. "How've you been?"

"Good, you know. Um, Alina had a baby."

"Congratulations. Boy or girl?"

"Boy. He looks just like Claude."

"Oh, well, that's nice."

"Yeah?"

"Reivin?"

"Yes?"

"I love you…"

" I love you too Tala."

"I'm happy that you called and all but, why so suddenly after two years?"

"Well, Claude is finally letting me go back to Japan! I'll be going to college over there!"

"Seriously?" Tala asked as he smile and went over and sat on the couch.

"Yeah! I'll finally be able to see you!"

"That's great! I've missed you so much; I can't wait to see you. When are you coming?"

"Tomorrow morning. I was hoping you'd go pick me up at the airport."

"Yeah, I'll be there!"

"Great, be there by 9:00 in the morning, k?"

"Okay, I'll be there."

"Well, okay! Bye then?"

"Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yeah. I love you."

"I love you too."

With that he hung up and smiled to himself. After two years, she was finally coming back to him.
