A/N: Okay people, I feel so bad, because I don't like the people who write stories and leave them. Anyways, I'm going to try and get back into writing more often. This story will be ending soon; I have a few ideas in mind for how this is going to end. rubs hands together and gives an evil cackle
Disclaimer: NOT DOING THIS ANYMORE! I've done it for the past eight chapters; ya'll get the point, right?
X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X"Come on Goldenlake! Keep up!" Shouted Julianna, spurring her group on faster. Brea drew in a breath and forced her aching legs to go just a tad bit faster. Julianna's idea of exercise was a run through the woods. In Brea's mind, she liked to torture them by running and thought it was fun to watch them from her horse. After a few more minutes of running, Julianna let them stop. "Goldenlake, keep lagging behind and you will be staying at the Palace."
"Why don't you get your ass off that horse and join us, instead of ragging on us." Brea snapped, wiping sweat from her forehead.
"Keep your mouth shut." Growled Rebekah quietly, shooting a glare at her. Brea had been with the group for about a month and the tension between her and Julianna could be cut with a knife...or a sword, whichever one Julianna drew on Brea first.
Raising an eyebrow, Julianna got off her horse and stalked towards Brea, her brown eyes narrowing in anger.
"What did you say?" She asked quietly and the people who surrounded Brea backed away, not wanting to be caught in the middle of something.
"Apparently, you need to clean your ears out. I said, that you need to stop ragging on us, when you won't even get off that damn horse and run with us." Brea retorted, glaring up at Julianna.
"I expect you on the field tomorrow, before sunrise. Be late and you will be out there for the rest of the week." Julianna said and lowered her voice so only Brea could hear her. "By the time I'm done with you, you will regret ever opening your mouth." She whispered and Brea gave a cold laugh.
"No I won't. Now, go on, get back to your little horsie." Brea stepped away from Julianna and smirked at her. With a cold smile in place, Julianna went back to her horse and mounted.
"Because of Lady Breanna's big mouth, we will be running the entire way back. Stay in front of me or you will be out on the fields tomorrow morning with Lady Big Mouth. Before sunrise." Julianna announced and the people in the group groaned their displeasure. Shooting a few venomous looks at Brea, they started to run again.
"Now I know why Dom didn't want to stay with you." Grumbled Brea under her breath and forced her sore legs to start moving again. "You evil woman. I hope your hair falls out."
-----
When practice was over, Brea had to practically force herself to walk across the fields and back to the Palace. She wondered if the servants would mind if she rode her horse into the Palace. By the time she reached the room she shared with Dom, her legs were protesting every movement and she was limping. Shuffling off to the privy, she poured water into the tub and undressed, slipping into the warm water.
-----
Dom sighed, making his way through the halls. He had just left a practice with the own and was on his way back to his room, where he knew Brea was waiting to explode with her daily 'I hate Julianna' rant. Which is why he was moving so slowly, that and he had twisted his knee.
"Domitan!" Cried out a voice that made Dom wince as he turned to face the owner.
"Julianna." He said, watching her jog towards him and nodded his head politely in a greeting.
"How are you? We haven't talked in ages." She cooed, flipping her red hair over her shoulder.
"For damn good reason too." Dom muttered, backing up against the wall. "I hear you have been making life miserable for my lovely Brea."
"Your point? That brat brings it all upon herself. She really needs to know when to keep her mouth shut, but I will be taking care of that tomorrow morning." Julianna smirked, as she walked closer towards Dom.
"Firstly, if you weren't so mean to her, she wouldn't be mean to you. Secondly, what exactly do you plan on doing to her?" He questioned, not liking the smirk, mainly because he knew what Julianna was capable...then again, he knew what Brea would do to extract revenge.
"You will have to wait until tomorrow when you see her to find out. If you see her."
"Julianna, what the hell are you planning?"
"Don't worry your little head about it, love." Julianna leaned in, her lips inches from Dom. "I don't get why you left me for that child."
"Juli, no...I...I love Brea." Dom said, turning his head and trying to push Julianna away from him. This was not happening.
"Are you sure about that, love?" She asked, forcing him to look at her; out of the corner of her eye, she saw a black-haired girl spying on them from the corner.
"Pos...positive." The words had no sooner left Dom's mouth, when Julianna pressed her lips against his. The kiss lasted for quite a long time, before Dom at last managed to force her away from him. "What the hell are you doing!"
"You know you liked it." Julianna started forward again, but was brutally pushed away by Dom. "Domitan...she is a mere child compared to me."
"Your not ruining my relationship with her again, come on to me again, and I'll...I'll." When Dom got angry or nervous, in this case both, his sentences stopped making sense.
"You'll what?" Julianna swept her hair out of her face and glared at Dom, hands on her hips. "Domitan, talk to me, when your ready for a real relationship." With that said, she stalked away from Domitan, a cocky smirk worn as she slipped out of the Palace. Growling, Dom turned and began limping back to his rooms.
-----
Brea slammed into the room she shared with Dom, throwing herself down on the bed, her wet hair was hanging over her shoulder, concealing her face from anyone who would walk into the room. Anger bubbling up inside of her. This was not happening. Not again. And with the same damn person! No. Brea felt unwanted tears slipping down her cheeks.
"I hate her." She growled, wanting to destroy Julianna at this moment. After a few more minutes of self-pity, she heard someone coming towards the room. Brushing tears off her cheeks, Dom entered, looking angry and limping. When he saw Brea and the tears on her cheeks, his expression softened.
"What's wrong?" He asked, going to his dresser and pulling out clothes.
"Like you don't know." Brea glared up at Dom, not even caring about why he was limping. "How could you do that? And with her of all people! Why Dom?" She was now standing in front of him, crying again.
"What are you talking about?" Dom demanded, dropping his clothes on the floor.
"I saw you kiss her Dom. You weren't even trying to keep her away from you." She told him, brushing angrily at the tears. "How long has this been going on?"
"You mean with Julianna? Are you serious?" He demanded, staring down at Brea and saw that she had seen them kiss and she was not kidding. "The kiss meant absolutely nothing. She forced herself on to me and just so you know, I was trying to keep her away." When Brea remained silent, Dom raised an eyebrow. "You don't believe me, do you?"
"No, I can't say that I do..." Brea said softly, staring at the ground.
"Brea, you have to. I didn't want to kiss Julianna. You're supposed to trust me." He said, placing his hands on her shoulders, trying to look into her eyes; she struggled against his hold and at last pushed him away from her.
"Just...just leave me alone." Brea wrapped her arms around her, staring at Dom. "I need air..." With that, she turned on her heel and strode from the room, slamming the door shut behind her.
"I love you..." Dom whispered at the closed door, shaking his head, he snatched up his clothes and shuffled away in the direction of the privy.
X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X
A/N: I know some of you are probably plotting my untimely demise, but I'm sorry. I've been stuck with no ideas for awhile...this was the first one that came to me...so I went with it. But, you know (or at least I know) they will be kissing and making up in the next chapter, so put the plans away and my next one will be coming up very shortly. Promise. And this one is shorter than normal, because I was just trying to get it up as fast as possible.
