I wondered at that point if anything would ever be the same. I had loved Cal, and trusted him. Than he tried to kill me but in the end he sacrificed his life to save me. I wondered if I still loved him when I woke up the next morning. Sure I had Hunter, and he was sweet and I loved him but would I ever love him like I loved Cal? Cal had been the first guy to ever look at me in a way more than just a friend. He gave me my first kiss, taught me of magic, helped me discover my powers and though in theory he was evil I believe that without Selene around he wouldn't have been and I truly believe he did love me. "Are you all right?" Mary K. asked, from her spot in the hall.
For so long I had been a bit jealous that she had a more curvy body than me but after finding out I was adopted it all made sense. "Yeah, I just have to think for a little while." I answered, forcing on a smile.
"Well, turn on the news. The police are swarming Cal's old place. They found his mother dead." Mary K. said.
I sat there in shock. His mother. Why hadn't she mentioned Cal? Was he still alive? If he was than my life would be so much more complicated. Sure I was with Hunter but I would always love Cal deep down. And what if we were mente to be together not because of some assignment but from destiny. Goddess, was I confused and stressed and just plain freaked out. I had seen him on the floor. I had felt his icy cold skin. Seen the paleness in his skin. I had seen that there had been no life in his eyes, or had I? Was it just another illusion? Another spell to make me think that he was dead? Maybe it was a spell to make Selene think he was dead. Or maybe I was just going crazy. "Just Selene was found? They didn't mention Cal?"
"No. Why would they?" Mary K. responded. Then I remembered she hadn't seen the bodies.
All I could do was shrug. Why would they have mentioned Cal? Because he was supposed to be there too, dead but he wasn't. If he wasn't there then where was he?
Later that night I was laying awake on my bed, starring at the ceiling. I couldn't sleep. I needed to know what had happened to Cal. Part of me wondered why I cared so much? If I still loved him? He proved he loved me by saving me but could I still love him back? Suddenly his voice came to me.
Morgan I told you I still loved you. Why couldn't you believe me? I still love you Morgan. We're mente to be together. You and me, forever.
No! I thought, shaking my head, trying to shake it out. I don't love you anymore. You tried to kill me and you used me, my mind screamed back at him.
Don't be a fool. You think you love Hunter? You don't, he is using you to do his job because he has no power, Cal's voice said, rage evident in it.
Like you used me?, I retorted back.
I had to Morgan but that doesn't mean I loved you any less. I tried to save you by setting that fire. You have no idea what they would have done to you if I hadn't set the fire. They would have done worse than kill you. I can tell you still love me Morgan. We are twin souls. Destined to be together, he argued.
No, you're dead. I saw you die, I argued back.
Then why didn't they recover my body, he asked furious.
I had had enough and drowned him out. Cal was dead. I saw his body. I felt the coldness of his skin. But if he was dead than why did I hear his voice?
