Chapter 26

Erik POV.

"Selene." I said.

"I came to tell you Venus is planning something very bad for you." She said looking into my eyes. I could tell she wasn't lying.

"ERIK YOU CAN COME AND JOIN ME IN HERE!" We heard Venus yell.

"I guess you already knew." Selene said looking at me. "I don't know why I even came here." She said turning away very fast but before she turned away I caught a glimpse of the tears that filled in her eyes.

"Selene!" I called after her.

"Forget it Erik. Stop texting and calling me just forget me because I have already forgotten you." She yelled storming out of the building. I slammed the door shut.

"Crap." I yelled.

"Erik whats wrong?" Venus said coming to my side.

"Did you know that she would come here?" I asked her.

"No." She said. "Erik what does it matter were together again." She said. Was she not watching what happened. Couldn't she tell that I had feelings for Selene and no one else. "I love you Erik." She said kissing my neck.

"Firstly we are so not together. We had sex and that all it was." I yelled at her. "Venus I'm sorry but I don't love you." I said my voice now calmer.

"What?" She said a little surprised.

"I'm sorry but I don't love you." I said. She sat on the bed looking as if she might lose her balance.

"You love her don't you?" She said and I nodded. "She's lost Erik." She looked into my eyes.

"I know but she's been to hell and back and lived to tell the tale and almost gotten raped. Wouldn't you feel lost too?" I asked her and she nodded.

"She isn't ready to face you yet Erik." She paused. "She needs time to find who she is and when she does she's going to find you to." Venus took a deep breath so she could continue. "Just give her space." Venus said getting up and getting dressed. "She loves you too she just doesn't remember it."

"When did you get so nice?" I asked her.

"I was always nice to you because I always loved you." She smiled at me. "I'm going to go now." She said.

"Okay. Thanks." I told her and I meant it. She really did give me something to think about in the end. She came up to me and gave me a soft and gentile kiss on the lips.

"Nothing?" She asked me.

"Nothing." She sighed.

"Can't blame a girl for trying." She said and walked to the door. "Selene's a lucky but very dumb girl." She said before leaving. I turned on the radio and that song "Baby Come Back." From the swiffer songs.

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see There was something in everything about you Baby come back, you can blame it all on me I was wrong, and I just can't live without you All day long, wearing a mask of false bravado Trying to keep up the smile that hides a tear But as the sun goes down I get that empty feeling again How I wish to God that you were here Baby come back, any kind of fool could see There was something in everything about you Baby come back, you can blame it all on me I was wrong, and I just can't live without you Now that I put it all together Give me the chance to make you see Have you used up all the love in your heart Nothing left for me Ain't there nothing left for me

This song could not be more about my life right now. I turned off the radio not wanting to hear anymore and I waited. Waited for school to start tomorrow. Waited to see her smile and laugh with Zoey in my class.

Selene POV.

I walked to the big oak tree where I had gone when I ran out of prom. I was feeling so sick and hurt. Erik had sex with Venus. Was he over me? Already? Was I suppose to be happy? The only thing that I knew that was apart of me was my love for Erik. That was the only connection I had to finding me. Was I wrong to let him go then? No, you made the right choice. I told myself and soon I started to believe it. I walked back to my dorm because the sun was coming out. "Selene where have you been?!" Zoey yelled at me as soon as I walked through the door.

"Around." I said changing into my pj's.

"Are you okay?" She asked me.

"I am perfect." I said. "But I told Lenobia I wanted my old office back and that I would not be attending classes." I told her. "I am going to look after things that need to be done around here." I added.

"Oh okay." Zoey said not adding anything. "Night S." She said turning off the light.

"Night Z." I said rolling over on my side.

"I know your not feeling as perfect as you say but I am not saying anything because I know your hurt." She said in the dark of our room.

"Who told you?" I asked because she was talking like she knew more than she was leading on.

"Stevie Rae and Erik." She said. "S can you talk to me please." She begged me.

"No." I said. "Leave it alone Zoey." I warned her. "Night." I said before falling into a never ending nightmare.

That's it I know but I needed something to lead up to my best chapter next lol I know I suck.
