Chapter 19
RPOV
The past couple of days had been a bit weird for me. I was almost certain that I was seeing things. It was starting to make me think I had actually crack when I thought for sure that I was healing after everything that had happened in Spokane. I thought I was getting pasted the death of my best friend. But this afternoon was making me think that I might need professional help. Because I was absolutely certain that I saw Mason Or maybe it wasn’t him.
I had been on another morning stroll coming from Adrian’s. I was about to head back in the building so I could get myself ready for my day when I saw something in the corner of my eye. At first I thought maybe I had gotten caught again, but at a closer look I realized that it wasn’t a Guardian that I saw, but it was Mason.
"No," I said softly. This had to be a trick. "No."
It had me thinking maybe I was still at Adrian’s asleep. But that couldn't be right. Adrian was in my dreams from the moment I fell asleep till we woke up. And I know for certain that we had woken up together from the heated make out session we had than we shared a shower (I had extra clothes in Adrian’s room, well he practically gave me a section of his closet and a draw from his dresser. Isn’t he the sweetest!)
But what other explanation could it be. Because I definitely didn’t like the one that suggested I would be going crazy. Those were my only options right, dreaming or I was losing my marbles?
He stood under an ancient, gnarled oak. I was squinting to try and make out his features, because he was fading in and out of my vision. He looked washed out, making his fair skin looked whiter than I recalled. His reddish hair now appeared fain, watery orange. I could barely even see his freckles. He was wearing exactly what I’d last seen him in: jeans and a yellow fleece jacket. He looked very much like a faded out photo that had been in the sun to long. But the part that stuck out the most was the dead look in his eyes. My heart ached to look him in the eyes. As I was taking him in could see that he was doing the same of me. He expression though never changed. Sad. Grim. Serious. He opened is mouth like he was trying to say something and then closed it. Several more heavy moments hung between us, and then he lifted his hand and extended towards me. Something in that motion snapped me out of my daze.
No, this is not happening. I was not losing my mind, and I would not start to interact with my hallucinations. Mason was dead, I saw him die and I held his lifeless body.
When I saw his finger move slightly like he was beckoning, I started to back away. I was not going to give in to these hallucinations that my best friend was still alive, even though looking at him it was apparent that he was very much dead, but that was beside the point. Dead looking or not, I was not going to give into this craziness.
He didn’t follow as I begun to back away. He just stood there with his hand still in the air. My heart lurched and I ran. When I was almost to the door I stopped and turned around, the clearing where he stood was empty. I let out a shaky breath now that my hallucination was now gone. But something told me that I was going to see him again, and that thought both thrilled me and frightened me. Mason was my best friend but he was also my dead best friend.
APOV
Something was up with Rose. I knew whatever it was she was trying hard to hide it, but it is difficult for her to hide anything from me. One because I can read her Aura better than I can read anyone else and two I know her just that well. Her brave face to me wasn’t as fooling as it could be with everyone else and that is without me looking at her aura.
But what really worries me about her aura is the fact that the black ring around it that over shadows most f her emotions has become even darker and it pulsates around her more so than it usually does. I was beginning to think that her going to Victor Dashkov’s trail might not be such a good thing since something is obviously bothering her. But I promised her that I would do what ever I could to make sure that she and Lissa got into that trail. Against my better judgement but it was what she wanted so I will give it to her. I just hope she never ask to put me in this position again. She can ask me to give her any other thing, but not something that I know is just a bad idea. I don’t know why it feels like this is a bad idea, but something in my gut is telling that it is a bad idea. I am going to keep a close eye on her while we are there.
But other than knowing something is bothering her everything between Rose and I is perfect. I even have a feeling that I am going to get lucky very soon. Or at least was. I don’t feel right taking advantage of her knowing something isn’t quite right with her emotionally. I think I have taken a turn to Pansyville. I have not had sex in so long I think my dick is going to rebel against me. But I can’t even fathom the idea of rushing Rose. She is my everything and I want her to be ready when we are ready to take that step into our relationship.
Yup. Rosemarie Hathaway has officially made me a pansy. The things you do while you are in love.
...I don’t think my hand and I have ever been so acquainted....
CPOV
You know how they say you can see your life flash before your eyes. Well that is how I felt when I felt Rose’s murderous gaze fall on to me because they assigned her to me for her Guardian exercise. I knew Rose and I have come along way from how it was when we first met. She was like a sister to me and I was ready to defend her as such at any given moment. And I knew to her I was like an older brother she never had. And that didn’t mean that neither of us pissed the other off when ever we got the chance because that would be a total like because even if Rose is like a sister to me I love to piss her off and I know she loves to do the same to me.
But for her Guardian duties I was the last person she thought they would ever assign to her, even for training purposes. Everyone knew that Rose and Lissa were attached to the hip and had something special even if they weren’t quite sure what it was. But not everyone knew that Rose had no plans of becoming a Guardian when we graduated. That was just for our inner circle, our family I guess you could call it and yes that included Eddie and Mia even if she did live at Court.
So I can understand where her murderous glare is coming from. This would be the only time she would ever be able to act as Lissa’s Guardian. And they have taken that from her, not that they knew it. But they did. Now I have to bare her wrath for the next six weeks. Ode the joy. Can you hear the sarcasm.
“I am sorry I am ranting at you Pyro,” Rose told in a huff as she set down on my chair. We had just gotten ready for the night. And I have endured murderous glares and ranting through most of it. It took me a bit before I realized the murderous glares weren’t necessarily directed at me in general, thank God. “It’s just I wanted at least this one chance to be Lissa’s Guardian even if it just for an exercise. She and I hardly get time to spend together these last few weeks. Me going through my recovery and Adrian’s hovering and then the two of you off doing your thing. I just wanted to spend time with my best friend you know. Graduation will be here before you know it. And Lissa and you will be going your way and Adrian and I will be going ours. I just don’t know what to do.”
“It’ll work out Rose. Besides I don’t think there is much that will keep Lissa from you. You two have been attached to he hip since you were kids. At the moment the two of you might not be hanging out much right now but it is a growing process gotta learn to be apart sometimes even if it is torture. But as for Lissa and I going our own separate ways after graduation, well I think you she try to go to college as a real student and not someone’s shadow. Besides your drunk may go back to school as well than we could all still be together.”
“I don’t think I have ever heard such a good idea come out of your mouth Pyro.” she told me with a small smile. Something was still up with her. Has been for a while, but she wasn’t letting on. And I wasn’t going to push.
“Yeah well if anyone ever knew of our little heart to hearts I would deny them.”
“So would I Fireboy. Now roll your ass over I am not sleeping on your couch.”
So for the next six weeks I think I am going to be sharing my bed with my girlfriends best friend. Good thing Lissa and Adrian understand the relationship between Rose and I is strictly platonic because when I woke up the next morning Rose was sprawled across my chest and my girlfriend looked like she was trying to hold in her laughter from where she stood in the doorway with Eddie, he to was trying to keep a straight and stoic face but was failing miserably.
“Don’t the two of you look adorable.” Lissa said with a giggle as she held out her phone that had a picture of Rose and I on it. Great never going to live this down.
Is that drool I feel soaking my shirt...
