The New Beginning
Chapter 5: Questions
I changed quickly grabbing all the things I needed and ran downstairs.
I didn't bother getting more wine since I drank of lot of it that can leave me non-thirsty for days.
I ran out the door without a word or a sound and started walking one door down to the left. Before I turned the other way to start walking to Zane's house I saw Blaze coming out of the house across the street. I turned quickly to head to Zane's but…
"Hey Morgan" he said from behind.
I shut my eyes and clutched the strap of my black messenger bag, Then, I around to face him.
"Good morning Blaze." I said politely with a big smile on my face.
"I wish you weren't here right now" I thought.
But I couldn't tell him that. I loved Blaze even though he was my enemy. Another bad part about me loving him is that he is not Zane. But Blaze is….different than Zane which makes my love for him different than my love for Zane.
"Would you like me to walk you to school?" he offered
"Oh thank you but, no. Zane is coming with me in my car."
"Oh yea, I forgot that you had a car."
I laughed.
"Well it was nice talking to you again. I'll see you in class." I said
I turned around but…
"Morgan, wait" he cried
"Yes Blaze?" I said while I turned back around to face him.
"I would like to talk to you after homeroom if that's ok with you."
"Sure, no problem. See you later Blaze."
I turned around and started walking to Zane's house. I wondered what Blaze wanted as I knocked on Zane's door. He opened it quickly which awoke me from my heavy concentration.
"Good morning my love." He said
"Good morning"
"Shall we go?" he said while offering his hand to me.
"Of course" I put my hand on top of his
He led me to my car. I unlocked the door and he opened my door for me.
"Thank you" I said while sliding into the passenger seat of the car.
I thought about what Zane was doing. Although, he is extremely nice to me and everyone else, he was acting different.
"Zane? What are you doing?" I asked
He was already in his seat.
"Nothing, why?"
"You're being extra…nice…not that I have any problem with that it's just…"
He looked at me with wide eyes.
"It's just…I feel like you think there is something wrong when clearly everything is perfect." I finished
"Morgan…there is something."
"Ok then…what is it?"
"Do you like Blaze?" he asked
I burst into laughter.
"Me? Like Blaze?"
I laughed because I didn't like him…I loved him.
"What gave you that idea?" I asked still laughing.
"Well, during the meeting you went crazy when you parents said that he was a hunter…well his family…they are still not sure if Blaze himself is a hunter or if he even knows what his family is."
"It's just…Blaze is too…nice…to be a hunter…anyone would be shocked at the possibility."
"Well, just be careful ok."
"Ok."
The ride to school was silent. It gave me more time to think of my love for both Blaze and Zane. I felt confused about it all. Was I really in love with Blaze? And why was I in love with him? Do I like Zane or do I love him? What does Blaze want? All of these questions and more filled my entire head during and after the ride.
He opened the door and kissed me when I got out. We were holding hands until we reached my locker which was the closest to the school entrance. We looked at each other.
"I'll see you after class." He whispered into my ear and then kissed my cheek and left.
Now that I think of it. I feel empty when Zane is away from me, when he is not around to protect me or to just sit with me. Even though we were in the same place, in the same floor, in the same building, I still felt empty because we were still separate. I feel the same way when I'm without Blaze, but when Blaze isn't there Zane is and when Zane isn't around Blaze is. Speaking of Blaze…I wondered what he wanted. I grabbed my books from my locker and ran to homeroom thinking of the possibilities.
