Vampire Academy-Clash or Mix

Chapter 10, Falling!

By: Celene Hudor Midnight

Oh, what am I going to do. I'm falling for my best friend's ex. boyfriend. This isn't good. I groan and run my fingers through my long, light brown hair. Ever since last week on that fateful day at the church with Christian, I haven't been able to think clearly and thought after thought kept zooming around in my mind; no break from the painfulness of each one. Sometimes I will think I'm loosing my mind because I'll start to hyperventilate, hearing voices, and see flashes of scenes everywhere. I'll stay up 'till five o'clock in the morning trying to just figure out what happened with Christian and I, but nothing seems to calm my nerves or stray me from my own thoughts. A couple times I thought I would faint from tiredness and dizziness. I'll be in class and all of a sudden I would get light-headed. I just can't get a break.

Knock, knock..I get pulled out of my scrabbled thoughts by a banging. I blink a couple of times to get rid of the tears that came to my eyes from frustration. Knock, knock. I jerk my head toward the door of my dorm where the banging is coming from. I stare at it for a moment, endless silence engulfing the room. Taking a shaky breathe, I slowly stand up and make my way to the door. Breathing in to steady my shallow breathing and calm my pounding-at-a-million-times-an-hour heart. I place my hand on the knob, twisting it, and I what...I mean who, I see is not who I expected.

I gasp in a breath and stare at him for a long moment not knowing what I should do or say. I open my mouth to say something, but nothing comes out. I glance at his face and shame enters my body. I give him a small, shameful smile while he takes me in. Seeing him standing there, I couldn't help but think I betrayed the one who is so important to me; who helped me through all my tough times: me training to be a guardian, me upset when Mason died in my sight, and even when I felt like I screwed up.

I choke back a sob and a tear slides down my cheek. He stares at it wide-eyed. Slowly, he lifts his hand and whips in away, pulling me into an embrace. I cry into his shirt, probably soaking it in the process. We stand there like that for what seems to be hours, but are only a couple minutes while he rubs my back and I cling to him for dear life, not feeling slightly embarrassed...but shame. This person in front of me did everything for me and how I'm repaying him is sobbing into his shirt and betraying him.

I know a part of me still wanted to stay here, but a realization came into my mind and I knew what I had do. Lifting up my head off his chest, I whip my hand across my face, getting rid of any tears left on my cheeks. Sniffling, I step back and gaze at his beautiful and caring face. I choke another sob back and take a shaky breath in. Smiling softly, I say but only one word.

"Dimitri."

Okay, so I know this chapter is REALLY short, but I didn't want to give anything away. Sorry! PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!...hahaha, anyways...I'll have the next chapter up soon. I know what I want to do and I really think this story is moving along. I think I finally have mt writing mojo back! Yipppeeee! :P Well, please don't forget to review or message me. I would love to hear what you have to say. Well, Merry Meet, Merry Part, Merry Meet Again.
