Why Would You Care?

Chapter two

By Shyla Age thirteen

I closed the door to the class room and ran as fast as I could out of the school. It felt like I was like being suffocated. I opened up the front doors to the ballet school and filled my lungs with the fresh morning air. It was still early, right around nine give or take. I walked past the old fountain that I usually loved so much and went to one place I always felt safe no matter what. I walked past Miss Adel and gave a curt greeting. She tried giving me knowledge of wisdom but right now I was gone to the world around me and just needed to be where I knew exactly who I was.

I went through the forest and across the park to the little abandoned church that was as old as Kin-Kan town itself. It looked like nothing special on the outside but on the inside it was more beautiful than the new church in the center of Kin-Kan town. I unlocked the white gold lock on the front gates and pushed open the old white doors. I had heard of this old church through a rumor and went to see if it was true. It had not been locked at the time but after I found it and saw what was actually inside it I bought a lock and placed it on the door.

The church was magnificent. It had pure white porcelain floors, large white marble pillars, statues of glass and silver, pearls imbedded in the church walls and all the way around the pillars. When I came here two years ago every thing was caked in dust. It just looked like a gray cloud but then I started to clean, and clean, and clean. No one would have ever known there was any sort of value because it was just so dirty. It has been my little spot for years and I had never told a soul. It's a fairly big church though. I had wondered how no one saw it before I did.

I took a few steps forward and then suddenly I heard the door click shut behind me. I froze; someone followed me and got into the church; my church. I very quickly turned and saw no one was any where around me. I backed up and looked all around me. I had perfect view of all of the church but the two pillars by the door. I watched for a sign, any sign that would tell me that there was or was not someone here.

It was just dead silence all around me. I finally got up enough nerve to walk toward the pillars. Quiet so if there was someone there they wouldn't hear me come up behind them, I crept around the first corner and saw no one. Great I'm going insane. I turned around only to be face to chest with something that was not any part of my church. I looked up to be looking straight at...

A/N: I think I'm going to end it right there….nahh just kidding. X] I love you guys to much to be that mean.

Iwas quiet for a long time. I didn't move; this was a very bad thing. Why of all people did this shehave to fallow me? She would tell the whole school of my church, there must be someone upstairs that hated me because the most popular girl in the whole town stared at me with a cold smirk and long eyelashes. Rue... beautiful in every way I was not. Had the man every girl wanted. Rue was also the girl who hated me with every fiber in her being; she wanted nothing more than for me to disappear from her world.

She put her nose a bit higher and looked around, "So this is where you've been sneaking off too... Interesting I didn't know of this place. I bet the school would love to have a ballet here. Don't you agree?". I closed my eyes. She knew that it was my church. She always had a way of just knowing how to stab me in my heart."Rue...please...don't tell. This is all I have." I pleaded with her to have a somewhat compassionate fiber in her being. She just sneered at me and replied, "Why should I?" typical Rue for you. Wonderful little saint isn't she?

She started walking around the church and sneaking glances toward the door opened and there in all his glory stood Mythos. Rue gasped and glared in my direction. He walked toward Rue and smiled. I couldn't understand how he liked her. She glanced at me and then started toward the door. Mythos waved goodbye and walked after her. Rue called out behind her, "Don't expect this conversation to be over. We'll speak more of this later."

I watched as they leave with my mouth slightly agape. Just like that it was over? Are you kidding me? I walked farther into the church and sat at one of the benches near the front. This was one of the worse things that could have happened to her. Rue found out and Rue gossiped...a lot. If she didn't figure out how to get Rue off her back she would never be able to have peace.
