A/N: I live in England and I don't have any American friends, so I don't really understand (or know) any of your slang, or the way you guys casually speak. I also know that some spellings are different (like grey+gray, colour+color and centre+center) so I apologise for any misunderstandings.
Poppy's pov
"Bye Boo"
"Good luck Rose" It was the day of Rose's trials, she had decided to come see me before she went. I did end up telling her about the phone call with mum, (I was never any good at keeping secrets from Rose). She wasn't too happy about it, but she understood... Well I think she did, its hard to know what's going on in Rose's mind nowadays. She always seems to hide her feeling, in fear that it would effect ours. I hugged her and let her go, she smiled back at me though it was filled with anticipation and nervousness, though why I don't know. She is one of the best novices here, she would ace her test. No doubt 'bout it. When Rose left I snuggled into my duvet and pulled out my Diary
Dear diary,
My therapist thought it would be a good idea to keep this so here it goes...I had finally shaken of the effects of the kidnapping. I had also been given a room in the academy - as I refused to stay in the clinic, any longer... I was about to go mad, my room had lots of medical stuff but it was private, comfy... and pink! It had been decorated with picture with me, Lissa, Rose and my mum. I had even been able to go and visit my other class mates. Don't get me wrong, I loved sending time, with Rose, Liss and Dimitri, but it was good to speak to someone my age for once. My best friend Lauressa Maynard hadn't changed one bit, she was still the goof ball that often ended up getting us both in to trouble with her 'plans'. Lauressa was really pretty, not that she would ever admit it. The best thing about her is the simple fact that she didn't care what you looked like, or who your are, as long as you could have a good time she would be your friend. She had long curly hair like Mia (Though personality wise they where completely different) and grey eyes, and with her pale skin, she really did look like a vampire. Ressa (her nickname, like Lissa, we shortened it so it was quicker and easier to say) was really excited to finally see me again, for the past couple of months we spent our time emailing, but as I was in the clear of not being contagious, we are allowed to see each other once again; she spends most of her free time messing around with me in my room. Unfortunately, I still wasn't allowed in class, my work was all sent via worksheets and computers. I always ended up finishing a weeks worth of work in three days. So it meant I spent a lot of time on my own with nothing to do... But anyway, another friend of mine; Bradley Ayers had also been visiting lately, he was really, really cute, and like me he was a Dhampire, he was smart and funny, and often helped me with my maths homework, as we where on the topic of division. (If my illness didn't kill me, division surely would.)
Polite knocking at me door, made me stop my writing. Hiding my diary under my bed, I waddled over to my door. Upon opening it, I found Lissa and Christian grinning at me. I smiled back and hugged the pair, Lissa excitement radiated into me. Today I was allowed to go have lunch in the hall with Liss and Chris.
"Come on Tinse, we're gonna be late." Lissa moaned, getting more and more impatient by the minuet. She had been trying to get me to have lunch with her, since the kidnapping. I grinned at her and rushed down to the hall with her. Christian rolled his eyes, but followed the both of us. We sat with the older kids, as I walked passed Eddie and Mason that smiled and waved. Lots of Roses other class mates smiled at me. I smiled back only remembering some of them. Lissa caught me up with everything that had been happening while I had been under house arrest and Christian had went to go get us our lunch. We had only been sat for dive minuets before we where interrupted.
"Well lookey here" Came a smug voice, I didn't need three guesses to work out who's voice it was. I turned round to face her, Mia she hadn't changed... well, apart from the fact her nose was taped up. A present from my sister, I guess. I groaned, this wasn't going to be pretty.
"What do you want Mia?" Lissa said wearily, obviously tired of Mia's rants. Mia's smug smile widened, she gave me a nasty smile, one that made me shrink a little.
"I was just wondering what colour Poppy wanted everyone to wear at her funeral, I mean, she hasn't got long left has she?" I flinched at Mia's harsh words. Even though I now knew I could be kept alive, I still feared being made to say that final goodbye. I shook of the thought, and taking a breathe, I harnessed some Rose Hathaway spirit and said
"Shut up Mia", Now I know it was way, way more polite than anything Rose would have ever said, but for me. It was pretty badass. "Even if I do die, people will remember and love me, I doubt that anyone would ever miss you or your bitchy comments. Now please leave me, and my friends alone to eat our lunch in peace." At that point nearly all of the Dhampires from Roses that where sat by us stopped and stared. They were all used to Rose's witty remarks, but none of them had ever though of me as anything but Rose's quiet and polite little sister. I found Mason and Eddies face, they where smiling proudly at me and giving me the thumbs up. I smiled back, but I wasn't as confident as they thought. Mia looked as if she had been punched. Without saying a word, she turned round and walked away. Lissa smiled and hugged me. It was only then that I realised that Christian had came back into the room. He, like Lissa and Mason, also had a proud smile on his face.
"Well done Poppy, Rose would be proud." Mason said as he walked over to us. I smiled knowing that that would be true. Rose would be proud, very proud and that was the greatest reward of all
