The Great Divide
The next morning was cold and grim, I felt so alone as I left for school. I hadn't seen Luke since last night and it is just so strange he would at least come and make sure I was alright. It's not like him to just be so solemn. I feel awkward and disfigured as I walk into school without Luke attached to my hip. I could hear whispers from the girls behind me as I walked by them, alone. Without Luke and with no excuses for his absence I felt naked walking down the halls, Luke was my shield that protected me from all of the whispers and all of the obnoxious comments but now I hear them all!
When I first spotted Edward walking down the hall I quickly came up to him and asked, "Where's Luke? Is he alright? What happened?"
Edward's face was sullen and thoughtful as he replied, "I don't know…" I grabbed Edward's arm and looked into his sad golden eyes… He was telling the truth. Luke was gone and Edward the one person in his whole entire family that knows everything that goes through the minds of everyone, to not know anything is a big deal.
I was looking for Luke all day thinking that he'll magically show up and say , "Sorry I was mountain climbing last night and it took longer for me to get home." Then he would kiss my cheek smile sweetly and make it up to me with a trip to our place in the woods, but he never came, there was no mountain climbing trip, and I have no idea where he is.
When I got home I went straight to my room slammed the door making all of Luke's former post it notes flutter from the sudden rush of movement and went to bed. I couldn't deal with the day and since tomorrow is Friday I don't really care about my homework, just the fact that today sucked and that I wanted it to just be over. I wanted Luke to be back so I could punish him for leaving with no reason and without telling me about it.
Trying to sleep didn't really give me any relief because I dreamed! And this dream was worse than all of the rest. It was late at night and I was walking in the woods looking for Luke shouting his name when I hear a violin playing so I follow the sound, crushing leaves under my feet moving quickly past thick branches dark green and wet until I'm at our place, the place by the bubbling river and the large boulders were I saw Luke standing high and tall on the boulder playing his violin eyes closed and cold when I approach him yelling his name he just continued to play his sad cold song, when I finally reached the boulder that he is standing on, grasping at his feet for him to stop playing and to look at me but he just shakes me off and turns away wordlessly. As he continued to play I began to back away slowly with the rush of rejection filled me. I then felt a rush of quick cool arms tighten around me in a menacing grab and the deadly sound of Shamus in my ear say "Your Mine!"
I woke up screaming louder than ever before eyes wide with fear looking around the room for Luke to come and comfort me…But all that was there was a slip of paper taped to my headboard lurking quietly in the awful darkness waiting for its message to be read.
