An: Okay so this takes place after my story F.T.D.A.H.H.E so Rose is back and Mia and Mason aren't together any more. I'm also sorry I couldn't get the new story up sooner it's because I was at camp and OMG Soooo fun we had snow ball fights, tramping, caving, mountain biking it was so adventurous.
My jaw literally hung open when I saw the inside of the ski resort it was amazingly beautiful and we'll be the ones getting to stay in it. I found my luggage and started carrying everything into my room. If I thought the lobby was amazing my room was better it was bigger then the dorms back at St Vladmirs. I stripped off my shoes and started running my toes through the fluffy carpet. There was a mini fridge a flat screen T.V and a huge bed I also got a balcony. I could stay here forever but I finally dragged my butt back into the cold and checked out the ski run it wasn't that exciting. I was just about to go back inside but something caught my eye.
Rose and Mason were doing dangerous moves down the mountain, going at super high speed, pretty soon they reached the bottom and I breathed a sigh of relief I didn't know I was so wound up. But I spoke to soon because they had their heads bent together and Mason started pointing to the side of the mountain where the ice was rough and Rose started shaking her head until finally she nodded and set off down the dangerous course. I was so scared that she was going to fall and break her neck but no she landed successfully. But I realised a bit too late that Mason was going to attempt the same thing. I watched him stiffly and then the worst happened he didn't do one of the moves Rose had as successfully and ended up rolling down the rest of the way. I let out a mini squeal but quickly composed myself and watched one of the ski resort staff yell at both of them. I was just glad he was alive although he seemed to have a bit of a limp. It's like he knew I was watching him and his eyes met mine once more. I looked away quickly and stormed angrily back inside. I decided to call my mom but I got her answering machine damn! I walked off towards the feeders and got a quick fix. My earlier anger came back when I saw Mason sitting by himself and he had a ice pack on his ankle. Thank god it was only his ankle. Then I realised what I was doing and stormed off again.
How could I have let myself feel like that, I promised myself I wouldn't care about him any more. I was walking blindly but stopped when I saw Rose and she was talking to Lord Ivashkov. Man he was damn cute! Roses head turned towards me as I got closer.
"Hey Mia," I glanced at both of them.
"Another guy?" I shriek.
"Mia this is Adrian Ivashkov." I didn't want anything to do with the crazy bitch but the Lord was too cute to pass up.
"Always a pleasure to meet a friend of Rose's especially a pretty one." He called me pretty! He was even handsomer up close.
"We aren't friends," I said angrily I didn't even want to be near her.
"Rose only hangs out with guys and psychopaths," My past resentment towards her showing in my voice
"Well," Adrian said. "Since I'n both a psychopath and a guy, that would explain why we're such good friends." Ugh! I want nothing to do with him any more he was practically drooling over Rose.
"You and I aren't friends either," She told him and he laughed.
"Always playing hard to get, huh?" Something in me snapped.
"She's not that hard to get," I said upset that he was paying more attention to her. "Just ask the guys at our school."
"Yeah, and you can ask the half about Mia. If you can do a favour for her, she'll do lots of favours for you." My face burned. Ugh! I HAVE NEVER HATED SOMEONE SO MUCH IN MY LIFE!
"Well at least I don't do them for free." I felt pretty good about that comeback.
"Are you done? it's past your bedtime and the grown ups would like to talk." I hated it when she used my childish looks against me. Time to pull out the big guns.
"Sure," I said with a smirk on my face. "I have better things to do anyway." I grabbed the door nob. "Her mom gave her that black eye you know." I smirked and left the room, she screws with me I'll screw her right back. But sadly my victory was short lived when I saw Lissa. She looked a lot happier since she started going out with Christian it made me angry that she was happy while I was suffering. Things in my life never seemed to work out like that. I was cursed.
I was practically fuming as I walked away from the site of them being lovey dovey. Maybe I'm just sour from what happened between me and Mason didn't work out because I was to chicken to tell anyone and eventually he got tired of the secrecy and that's when things spiralled down, we had heated arguments and there was a lot of bickering about stupid things. But we had some great times too, but I don't like thinking back to those times.
I walked past the room that Mason was in again and I back tracked. Maybe Rose won't be so lucky. I just got a brilliant idea.
"Hey Mason." This was the first time I've talked to him since the break up.
"Hey..." He said cautiously. I suppressed the urge to roll my eyes.
"I saw Rose and Lord Ivashkov they looked pretty cozy. He was making the move on her and she didn't do anything to stop him." Okay maybe it was a stretch, but what has Rose ever done for me. The seed was planted. He looked jealous and angry but quickly masked his feelings. It made me kinda of mad and jealous because he was really into Rose.
I decided that I was going to bed. I was too exhausted from the flight. My body felt heavy so did my eyelids. I welcomed the soft and warmth of my bed. As soon as I hit my pillow. I was out cold. I had the dream again. This time I was running through a dark forest trying to escape something but I can't remember what it was. I pause to take a deep gulp of air. Whatever I'm running from I hear it coming closer. I try to move my feet but I'm sinking. I hear leaves rustling near by, the thing is getting closer to me. I claw at the water that's trying to suffocate me. It's reaching my nose now. I'm drowning into-.
I bolt up and sit straight on my bed. My clothing is stuck to me like a second layer of skin. I peel it away. So far I'm not having any fun on this trip, it just keeps getting worse before it gets better. Even though I'm covered in sweat, I'm shivering from the vividness of the dream. It shakes me to my core. I don't want to stay in this room any longer and go retrieve some clothes to put on. After I was happy with the outfit I was wearing.
I walked outside into the cold. The wind played with my hair. It was out so the strands were blowing everywhere. I made a mental note to tie it up tomorrow. As I was walking I saw Rose and Mason, they both still looked happy. My blood boiled again. They were walking close together. My plan obviously hadn't worked.
Then out of nowhere I see a snow ball smash right into Mason's face and heard someone say. 'it doesn't pay to be in love Ashford.' I felt a twinge of sadness. I knew that voice. It was Eddie. Just walk away Mia. I saw that they started having a full on snow ball fight. I needed to go through that way to get to the feeders. I sighed. I guess I'll have to walk through the cross fire. But my mind was somewhere else as I was walking and ended up getting pelted with a snowball and let me tell you that sucker hurt. I winced in pain. Mason stopped briefly and looked at me but then continued to pelt Eddie with snowballs. I walked inside feeling more miserable then ever.
My head was pounding. I hadn't gotten much sleep for the last few nights and I was hoping after a feed I would feel better, but the headache only got stronger. I took some aspirin, but it only helped a little. Maybe a small nap wouldn't hurt. But when I fell asleep my it was dreamless. I was awoken by someone knocking on my door, pulling me out of my deep slumber. I realised my small nap turned out to be not so small. I was still a little groggy, so I was shocked when I saw Guardian Petrov at the door. She looked grim, so I knew it was bad news it was written all over her face. The suspense was killing me.
"Miss Rinaldi I'm afraid I have some bad news." My heart sank at those words and started beating faster. My throat was dry and I kept swallowing but it didn't work. "Mia...I'm...I'm...afraid your mother...has been murder by a strigoi attack." My mind couldn't comprehend what she was saying. The world around me seemed to slow down. Alberta kept talking but I couldn't hear a word she was saying.
"Thank...you...can I be alone now." She stopped in mid sentence and nodded. I closed the door and the tears started flowing. My sobs racked through my whole body. I was numb and cold by the time. I had finished crying and fell asleep on the floor.
So should I carry on? I love your feedback whether it's criticism or not. \(^-^)/ oxo
