Chapter 8:
I stopped punching the bag when I heard someone call my name. "Tatiana! Tatiana!" I turned around ready to fight, my adrenalin pumping. But it was only Kyle, one of my closest advisors. "You have to stop Tatiana. You are going to get yourself injured. Look at your hands." My hands really were a mess, scratched and torn up skin lay one them, leaving some finger tops bleeding. I sighed. "Okay Kyle." I said, turning around to go and treat my hands. "You can go." I said, walking away before getting asked more questions.
After wrapping my hands up, I looked over tomorrows schedule. I was teaching at the shooting range first and then tech. Not like woodwork tech, but holograms and the newest gadgets tech. Tomorrow was going to be fun.
Adrianna insisted on coming with me today, bugging me until I said okay. I was not going to let her use a gun at all, but she managed to get me to let her try. She didn't have bad aim at all. She actually got a bulls eye on her first shot. I patted her shoulder as I looked at the rest of my trainees. "Look." I said pointing to the target. "The princess just got a bulls eye. And she only started training yesterday. How long have you guys been learning? Are you really going to let her out shine you?" That seemed to get everyone to start to practice and of course, like the involved teacher I am, I joined in.
I grabbed a handgun from the table by the door and walked to face an empty target. I shot my first bullet and hit the bulls eye. In fact, I got it in the exact same place every time, which of course should not have been surprising. It is expected of me and all to be able to do that since I am the best.
Lunch was served in the main hall and Adrianna being the rebel she is took me to the royal family level of the palace. "I don't think that I supposed to be up here." I said quietly into her ear as she strode down the hallway. "Nonsense." she said. "If not, you are here escorting me to my room." So I expected to stop in front of her room, not the King and Queens.
Adrianna slowly opened the door, peaking in. Opening the door wider, she motioned me to follow her. Ever since my stay in there, many things had changed. Maxon no longer had pictures on the wall any more of anything but Celeste. I don't know what Celeste had done because Maxon always seemed attached to photography. Adrianna led me through Celeste's closet, which was now more than double the original size, to the secret door on the wall. And I knew all too well where it led to.
We entered my music room, everything still the way it was when I left it. Adrianna sat down at the piano which still had my open notebook at it. "Are you going to play?" I asked, sitting beside her. She blushed. "Yes. I have been practicing in honor of my mom. America." I studied the page carefully. "What song are you doing?" "The last song written by America." And she started to play.
"What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh
Give me all of you
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh"
Adrianna played so beautifully that tears had began to well up in my eyes. "Oh how I miss her." Adrianna said, sobbing into her hands which she brought up to her face. And now the tears came rushing out of me too. "That was beautiful." I said, rubbing the Adrianna's arm that facing away from me. As she continued crying, I muttered a few things that made me cry harder. "I miss you too Adrianna, and I miss being able to do that."
