California Blue

[Alexis Richarde]

Lately Alexis Richarde had been spending a lot of time in the Forbidden Forest. It seemed to be the only place that matched her never ending mood since she found out that her lover Izaak cheated on her. She needed to figure out want she wanted and needed to be able to actually trust him again but she didn't think she would be able to, not this soon anyway. When ever she thought about contacting Izaak she pictured him with the beautiful, blonde haired Isabella Ormonde and it made her ill. Cheating was one of the very worst things, she knew this, and Izaak did to but he went on and did exactly what they promised they wouldn't.

She didn't understand why he would break such an important promise. Izaak knew it was the one way to hurt her and yet, he still did it. Alexis was also wrong but out of all the times she could have kissed Zaire with all the love she held for him she had held her tongue and acted solely as his friend and Izaak didn't try to understand how guilty she felt about her love and tried to seek revenge on her. How the hell was she the bad guy here? No, she wasn't. He was and so was the Veela girl.

As she thought about everything, Alexis lay on the cool ground of the forest, narrowing her eyes on the barely visible, dull stars in the sky. She dug her nails into the ground beside her as she continued to cry her little, hazel eyes out. Her soft, pink lips trembled with hurt as she thought of how they first got together, why did she trust him so completely? Why had she been so stupid and given him all of her?

sorry it's kind of lame.

 

[Kiera Kaster]

Kiera was walking on the perimeter of the Forbidden Forest. She hadn't been inside the forest in sometime. Kiera used to be a frequent visitor but ever since she was made Head Girl, she had kept out of it. How could the younger students be expected to stay away if she didn't set a good example for them? Kiera liked the adventure that she tended to find in the forest but lately she didn't need to bring any more surprises into her life.

Kiera was debating with herself about what she was going to plan on telling Alex. She knew that at some point, sooner than later, she would have to tell Alex about what happened this past weekend at Brightstone. She had to tell him before he read the Prophet. Kiera had no doubt that Cynthia's article was going to be nothing but lies. Alex couldn't read that first. Kiera didn't know what to do about her love life. She did love Alex and always had the best time with him, but Kiera didn't think he loved her back. She knew he didn't trust her. James on the other hand, already loved Kiera. She knew that she could be completely happy with James. Everything between them always felt so natural and effortless. Kiera had the potential to fall hard and fast for him.

Kiera paused as she heard a girl sobbing in the forest. Kiera immediately got worried. She whipped her wand out and pointed it in front of her as she walked into the forest. Kiera found her new roommate, on the ground, crying. She put her wand away and knelt down. "Alexis? Are you okay?" she asked worriedly.

 

[Alexis Richarde]

Alexis heard a voice, barely, but groaned as she realized that someone had found out that she was crying, not that she was exactly discrete about it as she had done little else but cry. She was broken hearted and could really do nothing much but cry, so she leaned up on her elbows lazily and found her new dorm mate's face. "Have you ever been cheated on Kiera?" she asked, as she continued to cry but more silently than before. She made an attempt at a smile but the corner of her lips only quirked upwards then fell back down into a frown.

GAHH I'm so out of it!

 

[Kiera Kaster]

Kiera's heart stopped at Alexis's words. It appeared that the girl had been cheated on by her boyfriend. She hoped her new dormmate wouldn't react like Andy had. She didn't want to lose anymore friends. Kiera sank to the ground beside Alexis. She shut her eyes. "No Alexis. I haven't been cheated on. But I have cheated on my boyfriend." she admitted softly. It was something she would always torment herself for even if Alex did tell her not to.

 

[Alexis Richarde]

Alexis sighed as Kiera told her she cheated on her boyfriend. "So did I, but that was my ex-boyfriend," she said, for the sake of admitting negative things. "I hate it. I hate cheaters, I hated cheating. I can't stand that I was cheated on," she said roughly. "Then the girl my boyfriend cheated on me with had the audacity to tell me that what I felt for someone else was wrong. Like I didn't know that I should love two people at once, but not once have I kissed or slept with anyone else when I was dating Izaak. Can you believe it? God damn sl*t!"

Alexis wiped a tear away, as they actually dried off as anger formed in her belly. "I love that bastard still," she muttered under her breath angrily. She couldn't believe that after all was said and done she still loved him just as much as she always had, it simply was not fair.

 

[Kiera Kaster]

Kiera nodded her head as Alexis spoke. She too hated cheating. It was the worst thing she could do. Kiera could hardly believe that the girl that Alexis's boyfriend cheated on her with had told Alexis! Her jaw dropped. Kiera felt the pain that Alexis was feeling. "I am so sorry honey." she said, remorse clearly in her voice. "What the hell was he thinking? You can't help who you love." Kiera said reasonably. "Who is the homewrecker?" she asked, trying to get more information on the story. Kiera didn't blame the girl for loving Izaak still. She had a feeling that if it was Alex who cheated on her that she would still love him.

 

[Alexis Richarde]

Alexis shrugged her shoulders as Kiera asked what Izaak was thinking. She wanted to make some snide remark but that would only be directed at Izaak so she spoke nothing. "Her name is Isabella," she sighed hatefully. "Isabella Ormonde." Alexis flicked her hazel eyes down on her lap shamefully as she added, "But.. I pushed Izaak away. I love this other person, Zaire Adams, and Izaak found out. He thinks that I lied to him or love Z more then him." Alexis sat up and pulled her thin legs up to her chest and hugged them as she cried pathetically. "It's my fault isn't it? I'm the reason my heart is breaking," she said softly.

 

[Kiera Kaster]

Kiera gasped slightly to hear James Potter's old girlfriend's name. She didn't know much about the girl except that she had broken James's heart. That alone was enough to make her dislike the older girl. Kiera cared for James, more than she realized, and she disliked anything that caused him pain. "Yes, I've heard of her." she said with distaste. Kiera listened to the rest with a sad expression. She put her arm around her classmate and friend. "No. I don't think so. We can't help who we love." she said to Alexis. "It doesn't make you love Izaak any less." she said.

 

[Alexis Richarde]

Alexis gave Kiera a gentle smile as she felt her arm around her shoulder. She sighed and rested her cheek on the girl's shoulder. She was so thankful for Kiera right now, she needed someone like her. Someone to be her friend when she had no one else. "That's what I tried to explain to him. It wont get through his stubborn, thick skull!" she said with frustration. "Izaak and I were close friends before we discovered our feelings for each other. His half sister is my best friend and her girlfriend is his best friend, so we have ties further than each other," she said. "I spent most of the winter at his home with his sister and nephew. His nephew is one of my favorite little children ever and Leah, she is just as lovable as Izaak. I knew I shouldn't tie myself to someone so completely but I couldn't stop it," she said sadly. "Izaak is the best thing that happened to me and I don't want it to end but I don't want to be that girl. You know, the girl that lets herself get cheated on, pretending to be blissfully unaware and all that jazz," she mumbled to Kiera.

 

[Kiera Kaster]

Kiera rubbed Alexis's shoulders in a soothing manner. She listened to everything the other girl had to say. This certainly was a sticky situation. It seemed Alexis was practically part of Izaak's family already. "What does his sister say about it?" she asked, assuming the girl had told her friend. The sister's opinion probably counted highly in Izaak's mind. "Have you told him that? Have you told him you still love him but you don't want to be that girl?" Kiera asked. In her opinion, Alexis should tell Izaak that. Maybe it would make a difference.
