This is my first fanfic I'm posting and this is the first fanfic I'm actually letting people read. Sorry for the first chapter is so short, the next ones will be longer. I don't own VA.

Chapter One

My life completely sucked lately. Everything seemed so damn perfect, like a fairytale. I had the man I loved or so I thought. I guess I was just his play toy. Dimitri shattered my heart when I caught him having sex with Natasha Ozera. I never hated Christian's Aunt, I always got a weird vibe from her but I never hated her. Until I walked in on them doing it on the gym floor.

"You should probably find a room that allows you to lock the door!" The words left my lips before I could even think. Thankfully I spoke with no emotion. For the first time in my life, I had my guardian mask on and it was perfect. It showed absolutely no emotion at all. At the sound of my voice, both of their heads turned. Dimitri's eyes went so wide, I thought his eyes were going to pop out of his head. Tasha, on the other hand, had a very satisfied look on her smug face. I turned on my heels and walked out of the gym so fast that Dimitri didn't even have time to remove himself from Tasha.

That was supposed to be me; we were planning on doing that tonight. To finally give into each other. Fuck that, not going to happen ever with that lying, cheating, bastard. I can't believe I was stupid enough to even think that we could have something. Of course, you fell for it; you're only a toy to them. I stopped myself from listening to my internal babbling. I put in my headphones and scrolled to Fireflight. I started listening to Forever on my I-pod touch. I turned up the volume just as Dimitri came running after me, this time fully clothed. I had been jogging but it turned into a flat out run. I let all of my anger, frustration, and the darkness from Lissa flow through me.

Dimitri was running as fast as he could, but he couldn't keep up. Lissa's darkness from using spirit is starting to take its toll on me. The darkness is slowly consuming me. My anger has been bubbling just below the surface for about a month now. Seeing Dimitri with Tasha like that just pushed me closer to the edge. If something else happens today I may just snap.

I was getting ready to pass one of the giant trees near the front gate when someone grabbed me. I thought it was Dimitri so I flipped him over my shoulder and he landed on his back. I was straddling him before I even knew what was happening, with my fist raised in the air ready to punch him in the face. Someone started clapping which startled me that I took in the facial features of the man beneath me.

Oh Shit! Screamed my inner voice. You are so dead!

Please review, thanks
