School, again.

You'd think after everything i'd been told, this would be the last place I'd spend my time.

But me being me, I valued my education highly. And was probably the only person in the whole damn town to do so.

The days spare I had, I spent alone, trapped with my own thoughts in a never-ending cycle of darkness. Scary right?

Usually I loved being alone, lying on my white bed and just relaxing or listening to music.

This wasn't one of these times.

Every moment alone felt like torture, even being near my mum when she came home was horrible. It was as if I longed for someone, and I knew deep down who it was.

Food.

Well, I'm kidding. Obviously but it did hurt a lot.

Now that I was in school, I felt fine. Almost complete. I looked over from my table to see Hunter chilling against a wall in his usually position. Smiling for some unknown reason at the ground, almost as if he knew something no one else did.

What amazed me was the smell that was coming from him. It was different from what I'd ever smelt, and it was exhilarating compared to before...stronger.

Em then made her way over and sat down with her two chocolate bars. Her usual choice in food for her lunch.

Maybe it was just me, but she smelt weird. Really weird.

"Em did you use a new perfume or something?" I asked, sniffing around like a dog. virtually,

"Huh?" She laughed, opening her first bar."No why? What Is it?" She asked, squinting her eyes at me in confusion.

"You-um smell weird, kinda different." I questioned her, which I immediately regretted.

My best friend was looking at me like she'd found out I was Hitler reincarnated.

She looked terrified. I'd never seen her bright blue eyes look at something so big.

"Um-Y-yeah I used a new perfume...." She spoke quietly. Stuttering on her words and speaking nervously.

Em was acting suspicious, and clearly Amy had picked up on this. Luckily for me, the Bell rang throughout the entire Hall, and everyone got up to go to their next class. Well, except the goths. That just sat and continued to smoke in the corner of the room like usual. Some stereotypes never change.

Luckily for me, I was in History with Mr Brown, possibly the nicest teacher in the school. And Amy was also in my class, so it was a win-win situation.

Me and Amy both stood up from our lunch table, and in less than a second Em had already left.

Reaching the class, both me and Amy sat down beside each other and to my horror my Ex-boyfriend walked in. I'd completely forgotten that he was in this class, don't ask me how. I just did.

He sat at the one seat left in the entire class, and guess where it happened to be.

The seat right beside me.

He slowly moved towards me, refusing to make any eye contact at all with me. And quickly sat down beside me, not glancing near me.

The girls around us began giggling like usual and gossiping. Twisting the truth in every way possible until I was listening to a lie about me cheating on Ashton, hooking up with Hunter, getting pregnant with Hunters child then getting back together with Ash after he 'forgave' me.

This happened over one weekend people...one weekend!

I could feel his Ashton's regret easing off of me. It literally reeked of regret and if seemed I was the only person who picked up on it as no one else seemed unfocased. Once again, I felt uneasy.

He was mess, his hair was all over the place and he was wearing the most comfortable outfit on the planet, which he only wore when he was relaxing with me in his arms. Dammit Cece, stop thinking.

Thinking about the memories was sad, it hurt. But after all, it wasn't me that did the dumping. He had all of this to blame on him, I didn't do anything wrong.

"We are going to be going over a bit of this towns history for once." Mr Brown smiled, knowing that none of us had paid attention to this story when we were toddlers." Its not as if the majority of you care anyway." He raised his eyebrows as he sat down on his desk.

"Does anyone know it?"He asked, knowing fair enough none of us did.

"Does anyone know of the Dothrakian Tribe?" He began, no one answered as he dramatically rolled his eyes at the class.

"Well they were the first settlers in this area, and at the time they were the biggest and strongest tribe in existence."

Those words caught my my attention. I'd heard this before.

"The Chiefs son had a fling with a foreign girl who came across the colonise the land and she became pregnant. Now in those times, cross-breeding was punishable by death. And that's what happened to the poor Chiefs son."

"The girl gave birth to a healthy son whom later became the first founder of the town. He was known as Darius Darkfall."

"Rumour has it he killed the Tribe for murdering his father, whom he never even met. But back then, family was everything. They didn't have phones," He spoke, snatching someone's phone out of their hand as he walked by their desk.

"Darius Darkfall, the founder of the town had one son, Alexander."

"Alexander was the first mayor, as by the time he was old enough the town was completed. Never knowing his grand-father and father had both been murdered." He sighed.

"No one knows anything about the death, but rumours spark that it was one of the Dothrakian tribe taking revenge for the killing of their people."

Darius Darkfall. I thought to myself, it sounded very familiar and I didn't know why. But the name called out to me, almost as if I knew it.

The rest of the class however was boring exam stuff, but Mr Brown was giving me an intense stare as the class came to a finish. Maybe it was just me, but he smelled the exact same as Hunter's parents. But not like Hunter...he was unique.

On the way to the door, a familiar arm caught mine as I was leaving, My head snapped back as I stared at whoever it was, already knowing from his smell.

Ashton.

He wanted to talk, but the look of pain on his face was to horrible to ignore. He looked completely ready to crumble onto the ground and just...die.

I sighed and gave in. Fully turning my body to face him as we reached the corridors.

"What is it Ashton?" I stopped, turning to face him properly and I clearly showed how frustrated I was.

"I want to talk...." He spoke softly, putting down his head as low as he possibly could. Almost as if I was somewhat better than him.

"About what?" I spoke, trying to play the dumb game with him, when really I just wanted him to admit that it was his fault and shout really loudly in his face.

"I was extremely drunk at your party... I didn't mean what I said about calling you a slut."

"Really? Because I'm guessing you meant what you said about breaking up then." I spat, then began walking off again with a giagantic smirk on my face.

Only for him to grab me again. Well, attempt.

"I completely regret that!" He shouted, literally looking like he was going crazy. " Cece I am your boyfriend, don't you dare walk away from me!" Ash screamed in my direction.

I had to think about what I was going to say next. Did I want him back? Of course I did, but was it worth it?

I stopped walking and turned around slowly as I flashed him a nice big smile, tilting my head slightly as I did so.

"Make me." I spat, turning on my heel and completely marching in the other direction without once looking back as he continued to scream my name.

Ceces a badass guys...I have nothing to say....
