Chapter 3 - 6 monthes later.
Zack was in love. He had never felt this way before about anyone. Julia could make him laugh, smile, and for a few hours at a time even make him foreget who and what he was. But the forgetting and peace of mind that came with it never lasted for more then a few hours at a time. Then would come the guilt. For haveing not looked in on his siblings for two days, or even a week. Also for not being his usual viligent self.
Julia was also in love with Zack. But things were beginning to change. In September Julia started college, and with that Julia saw even less of Zack. now with classes and new friends she very rarely saw Zack during the day. Very often at night Zack would climb through her window and into her bed. Zack had made it clear in the beginning og the relationship that there would be no sex. He was afraid of what would happen if Julia accidently got pregnent. Would her tiny body be able to handle carrying a human chimera hybred?
So every few nights Zack snuck in and would hold her all night. They would spend those hours together cuddling, talking, and kissing. If you happend to walk in on them they would have seemed like any other couple on campus. But they weren't. Becasue when Julia woke up, Zack was always gone.
When Zack was there Julia was at her happiest, always smiling and laughing. The days or weeks in between his vists Julia was her normal happy-go-lucky, outspoken self. But on those days when she awoke alone after a night with Zack she was miserable.
Those were the days she was in pain. Becasue she had spent a night like everyother girl who had a guy. but when she woke, and he was gone, it ruined her for the rest of the day.
One night when Zack climbed in her window he found her sitting at her desk looking right at him.
"Julia" he said a note of concern in his voice as he moved foreword to embrace her. "Whats wrong luv?"
"I can't do this anymore Zack" she said quietly.
"Do what Julia?" He asked comeing to knell in frount of herand place his hands on her's.
"This!" She practicaly yelled as she got up out of her seat abd moved past him. "I can't take only seeing you for a few hours every few days! I love you so much when your here, but when you dissapear in the middle of the night I hate you for the pain I'm in." she managed to say this all without crying, but now the tears were beginning to well up in her eyes. Zack walked over to where she was leaning on the table.
"I never meant to hurt you in any way, Julia." he said placeing his hands on her shoulders and looking her in the eye.
"I know Zack" She said quietly as she met his eyes.
"We can fix this, I know we can Julia. Just tell me what to do, to make this right between us again." He said sincerly.
"I don't know that we can fix this Zack." Julia said sadly.
"You could come with me Julia. We could make a life together." Zack said.
"What kind of life would that be Zack? Always moveing, always visiting one sibling or another. Besides Zack you know how much college means to me."
"What do you proposse we do then?" Asked Zack quietly.
"Well earlier today I was thinking I could make you choose between your siblings and me but......
"Julia, I won't......."Zack began angrily.
"Zack," Julia cut him off mid-sentence. "I realized that not onlywould that not be a fair thing to ask of you......but theres no way you would ever choosse me over you siblings." Julia finished quietly.
"Julia, what are you trying to say?" Zack asked quietly as tears began to form in his eyes.
"I'm so sorry Zack, but we have to break up." Julia chocked out as she completely broke down in tears. Zack's face became the emotionlessmask of the perfect Manticore solider.
"Fine Julia." He said in a hard emotionless voice. He then turned his back on Julia and made his way to the window.
"Zack!" Julia yelled out his name. Zack turned instantly at the sound of his name, called out so despretly, by someone he loved so much.
"What?" He asked his mask breaking down with every secound that he looked at her.
"Please don't hate me Zack." Julia said quietly. "I don't know what i'd do if you hated me. Please Zack, please say we'll stay friends." By this point she was almost pleading. Zack looked at her, visably distressed.
"I'm sorry Julia, I have to think." and with that Zack went out the window, and into the dark seattle night.
