I ran as fast as I could away from him, the years of training paying off just like Dimitri said it would.
Dimitri. His name ricocheted off the walls in my head sending another shot through my heart. I didn't like the way the walls spun when I thought about him, for my head was dizzy and it was uncontrollable. I tried to force his gorgeous face out of my head, for the image of him hurt way too much, it was unbearable.
We'd taken holidays together, like we had planned for months and today was the last day I would get to spend with him. We enjoyed two weeks in each other's presence, and it was pure bliss but something changed. Instead of basking in the sun in his arms, like I'd done every day for the past thirteen days I was running from him, too tormented to even utter a word.
People stopped to stare as I ran past, my vision blurred by a constant veil of tears. This man I loved didn't just break me, he destroyed me. My whole life revolved around him (and Lissa), and his constant love and attention. Nothing seemed to matter anymore though, it seemed pointless.
