《》Chapter 1
Advertisement
I knew ever since I was in middle school, I can expect nothing good in my life. Even the teachers told me that I wasn't destined to witness great things in my life, which was true, sort of. As I moved to high school, I was convinced that I was totally doomed. So, I dropped out as soon as my 10th grade started. I was only 15.
I was forced to drop out, because my head was always in the clouds in the classes. I couldn't answer a simple question, neither could I remember half of the things we were taught in school. Not everyone can expect good things of their life, isn't it? My parents didn't oppose me, they knew I was a nuisance. They simply told me, "Get a job, Drew."
So, I decided to get a job. Back in school, I used to have a summer job, being a nurse. I made that my permanent job. I had trained in a famous nursing school before. So, no school, just a plain, good for nothing girl, with a job which no one cares about. My job was plain and simple, and is continuing as so for the past six years. I am 21 now. Six years have passed, even though nothing has changed. I might have gotten a desire to study, and increase my knowledge, but nothing happened. I was still a plain nurse. But, something else happened, which I had not anticipated in the past years. Yes, it was there, I saw her for the first time, the woman who made me realize who I am, that my life is not worthless after all, maybe I am living for something good. Yes, that's where I saw Gina Crowe for the first time, a plainly dressed lady with pale skin, blond hair equally pale, and warm, brown eyes contradicting her plain looks. She was extremely pretty, but dark circles under her eyes made it evident that she had been going sleepless for the past few days. She looked about my age, but wrinkles and fine lines made her look way older. I was carrying a tray of medicines, when I first saw her, and got hooked to her unique beauty. I wanted to go and talk to her, but I hesitated. I knew she was an actress, and made loads of money. I took a deep breath, and walked up to her, hoping for the best.

"Uh, hello ma'am, are you waiting for someone?" I heard my trembling voice, speaking to the pale woman.
As if someone woke her up from her very good sleep, she jumped up, and passed a forced smile. "No. My mom's going through a surgery, appendicitis."
"Oh, that must be painful. Give me a call if you need any help."
"Help?" she scoffed, "No one helps me around, anymore."
I was puzzled. She was an actress, but why was she acting like that? Panicking, I smiled awkwardly, wishing I hadn't started the conversation. I wanted to hide my surprise on seeing an actress in person for the first time, but it somehow found it's way through my mouth.
"You're Gina Crowe, isn't it?"
"Yes, just an ordinary person. If you are talking about 'THE' Gina Crowe, then I'm sorry, that's not me."
Gina passed a strained smile. I had no idea what she was talking about. I nodded softly. After five minutes, she said, "I must get going now, got some registrations to do. Goodbye."
Grabbing her expensive handbag, Gina walked away. I stood there, the tray of medicines still in my hand. She spoke plainly, and yet something was extremely elegant about her. Well, she's an actress after all. I became more and more determined to speak to her, and know more about her. I was sure, at some point deep inside, we are really, really similar.

8 207The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping. I have contemplated it I will admit, but he would stop me before I fell even two feet. I was stuck, and no one could save me. Not even myself, my fucking weak self. His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin."Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance...I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.Highest Ranks: #17 In Romance #5 in Soulmates
