A/N: Do not worry I have not given up in this story just have writers block, but here is a chapter and I know it's really short but I think that this way I can get all this goo that is in my head due to finales and then work on getting the story strong again.
Gemma's Point Of View:
I ran off not knowing where to go, I was crying so hard and if I went inside then someone was sure to ask what was wrong and I was so tired of lying. Lying about these powers I have lying about Kartik and our relationship.
So I went to a nearby tree and sat down by it, as I hugged my knees to my chest I cried. I cried for mother, I cried for the confusion I felt. But most of all I cried for Simon, he didn't deserve the way I was acting I had promised him something and I couldn't even keep it for longer than a day!
I pulled myself together and came to a decision I was going to try my best to be with Simon, if Kartik thought I had feelings for him he was right but he will soon learn that Gemma Doyle doesn't not like to be toyed with. I patted my cheeks with a handkerchief and composed myself and with dignity I walked back inside.
"Did you find Mr. Kartik, dear." Grandma asked the moment she saw me. She was sitting in the sitting room drinking tea and knitting.
"Yes, sorry I took long but the morning it so beautiful today, do you not think?" I asked hoping she could not see through my façade and would be pleased with my ladylike response. She was I could tell by the way her eyes lit up.
"Yes it is wonderful, which is good for Simon Middleton just sent a message hoping to have a walk with you around the park today at one I hope you don't mind I replayed that you of course would be able to." I smiled this is just what I needed to have time with Simon to be happy with Simon.
"That is wonderful news Grandma." I said as I sat next to her.
"Well not as wonderful as when I saw you were his brooch." My cheeks grew pink. "Now I think it be best that Tom accompany you, it would be awful if someone say just the two of you, but since it is Simon I'll be sure to tell Tom to stay a few feet away to give you two some space, I might even tell him to take a young lady of his own to keep him a little less interested in you. I was thinking your friend…..Ann?"
"Oh that would be wonderful!" She beamed at me.
"Good then go off then, and be sure to be ready to have lunch and then for Mr. Middleton to come pick you up. I will be sure to write to Ann." I uncharacteristically hugged her and ran up to my room to choose the dress I should wear to meet Simone. I couldn't help but smile at the thought of him. But as I looked out my window I saw Kartik walking back to the barn and my smile faded, but I looked away knowing that there was no point.
Luv U Lots- Ally
