~Allura~
"I saw your ghost, here tonight. It lingers on and I feel your light, pulling me back to the place, but the thought of staring back at you is more than I can take. It's a long way, now, from where I used to rest my head. It's safe and sound, if only I could turn around. There's no direction, where I stand, just dented signs and wasted land. It's a long way, now, to you." I sang under my breath. Singing was my only way of releasing anger without actually hurting someone. Yes, I was still angry because of what happened yesterday morning. So I can hold a grudge. Sue me.
I fiddled with my keys when I came to my door and saw a familiar looking blonde walk happily down the hall. "Hey, Katie. Seems like it went well. You're practically skipping." She blushed and whispered 'shut up' as she walked past me and to her room. "My, my, my. Girl finally got her a man." I chuckled, shaking my head and throwing my things on the floor.
Logan stood at his window smoking a cigar. Which, I hadn't realized until now, he did every day. Just seeing him renewed every ounce of anger I had in my body. I stormed over to his room and shoved his door completely open, "Logan, we need to talk." He looked over at me, curious as to what I 'needed' to talk to him about. "Yesterday morning in the danger room…why did you do it? Why did you attack the tiger instead of letting me handle myself?" He rolled his eyes and put out his cigar, "Oh god. I knew this was coming at some point. You can't let anything die can you?" He tried to push past me and get out but I closed the door. "You're not leaving until you give me reason."
His jaw clenched and his hands balled up into fists. Logan didn't like being trapped. "Why'd you do it Logan?! You were trying to get me back weren't you? For the things I had said about you to the class." "No!" "Then what?!" "I wouldn't have had to if you would've paid attention to what you were doing!" He yelled. "I had everything under control! In case you didn't notice, I was the only one who actually went up against the damn thing!" I turned away from him and put my hands on my hips. "Yeah, sure you had it under control. Until you turned your back on it to check your shoulder. It was a computer image, Allura! What were you afraid of, blood loss? You of all people should know that you should never turn your back on your enemy." "Oh yeah? And why's that?" I asked. As I turned around to face him, he grabbed me by the waist and planted his lips firmly on mine. The few moments that the kiss lasted were filled with anger and frustration…like he was still holding himself back. I didn't even have time to decide whether or not I wanted to kiss him back. He pulled away and looked me in the eye. "Get out." He growled. I wasn't afraid but I didn't waste any time. I quickly fled the room and ran down the hall. His door slammed shut causing me to flinch.
"Katie open up." I begged, pounding on her door. She opened it and looked at me like I had lost my mind. When I saw her…I broke down, falling to my knees at her feet. With my head in my hands, I sobbed and cried. Something I hadn't done for a while.
I knew now why I had always hated him. I was in love with Logan. Somewhere deep down in my heart, I had always known. But I could never be with him, and he would never love me. And that kiss had done nothing but prove that. He didn't even want to be in the same room with me after! Everyone had told me love was a pure and blissful emotion. No…love was pain and agony. Heartbreak and anguish…and I think I'd rather die.

This is the most emotional I had ever seen Allura. EVER. I bent down beside her and pulled her into a hug. She was crying so hard that my shirt sleeve was instantly soaked with tears. I watched Logan storm out of his room with a jacket in his hand. 'I swear. If he hurt her…I'll kill him.' I thought. Helping Allura to her feet, I pulled her into my room and shut the door behind us.
