♥ Chapter 35♥
10:20 '' Horizonte Penitentiary. '' Cafeteria. '' Zefíria.
Aurelia Dusk.
I haven't seen Lucian for three days today. He hasn't even been back to his cell, and he hasn't shown up in the cafeteria. I wonder where he is. Sometimes, when I pass the idiot Nebula's desk, she laughs and makes jokes, saying that Lucian is very good in bed. It bothers me a lot. I still don't know how I feel about him. Sometimes anger, embarrassment, and the desire to kill him. But...I really don't understand my feelings for him.
'' Are you okay? '' I looked at Hina next to me.
''Yes, I am. ''I gave a small smile.
We're heading to the cafeteria now; the girls should be there by now. I'm already running out of hope of finding Lucian there.
'' Are you sure? You seem a bit down. '' I wrapped my arm around his shoulders.
''I'm fine; there's no need to get all worried about it.
'' If you say so, I'll believe you, love. '' I smiled lightly at that.
We walked down the iron stairs, and I glanced quickly at the Dragon's table. My heart leapt at the sight of him sitting there, eating.
He came today.
Hina pulled me towards the girls' table, and I was a little annoyed when I realized that Lucian wasn't looking at me.
'' We're here! '' Hina said, sitting down next to Trix.
"We see. "Tina replied.
I sat down next to Dora, keeping my distance from Druk. I don't want to make trouble for myself.
''Today we have clothes to wash and fold; what the fuck? ''Dina moaned.
''Tell me about it; just thinking about it makes me agonize. ''Dora agreed.
''Here, we'll get your trays. ''Trix pushed the trays towards me and Hina.
'' Thanks. '' We thanked her.
I raised my face, but Lucian didn't look back at me. This is bothering me too much. Why am I so upset about this? My breathing becomes irregular, and my stomach tightens as if I've tied it in a knot. I'd better just eat and try not to think about it.
''We'd better finish eating and get on with our things because you know what these guards are like,'' I said, watching them agree with me.
'' Yes, you're right.
I raised my face again and saw him looking at the new girl who sat next to him. A wave of discomfort spread through me, squeezing my chest tightly. I squeezed the spoon in my hand so hard that it began to deform.
'' Aurelia? '' I blinked a few times and looked at Trix.
''What's wrong? ''I asked, trying to disguise my annoyance.
"You're kneading the spoon. "She said, pointing to the spoon in my hand.
I looked at the spoon and saw that, in fact, it was completely deformed.
'' Shit. '' I undid the spoon, feeling heat rise to my face as all the girls stared at me.
''If you're jealous, why don't you go and show them that it's yours? ''Dina asked provocatively.
'' I'm not jealous. '' My answer came out harsher than I intended, but they just snorted in disbelief.
'' We believe that. '' They replied together.
''I'm going to the bathroom. ''I stood up, feeling the need to get away from the situation.
'' Do you want me to go with you? '' Hina asked, getting up too.
''No need, I'll be fine,'' I replied, getting off the bench in a hurry.
''We'll schedule five minutes; if you don't show up, we'll come after you. ''Trix said it seriously, while the others agreed.
''It'll be fine; I'll be right back.
I walked to the stairs and up to the bathroom, biting my lip hard.
I'm not jealous; we're nothing, and I don't like that man. Even if I did have sex with him, it was forced.
I wiped my hands across my face, frustrated by the whole thing.
Why the hell do I bother so much with what he does? He can do whatever he wants; it would be nice if he stayed with that new girl and forgot about me.
I stopped walking.
"Would it? "I asked myself.
I walked quickly back to the bathroom. I needed to stop thinking about it before I went crazy. Furthermore, I entered the bathroom and went to one of the hangers, letting out a sigh as I tried to push the disturbing thoughts from my mind.
Once I'd finished, I went to the sink to wash my hands, splashing some water on my face before leaving the bathroom.
'' Hold her! '' I was surprised by the arms that were holding me.
'' What the fuck? '' I shouted, seeing Nebula's friends holding me.
''You know, you really think you're special, don't you? ''The guy approached me, his face contorted into an unpleasant expression.
''Let go of me! '' I struggled to get loose, only to be punched in the stomach in response.
