Eagle Crest Hallows [2]

Indigo

I smile and look up at her, wondering whether my smile even looked like a smile.

Nothing. It was a joke.

Zoey

I nod, shaking my head at him and lean against the tree, closing my eyes to try to calm myself.

Forget about him....

Indigo

I watch her, wondering what was wrong.

Who are you thinking about? What did they do to you?

Zoey

I swallow at his question and open my eyes to look at him. "This guy I was dating...He cheated on me." I choked, not believing I said it. "He was the only thing that made me happy..." I said as a tear ran down my cheek.

Indigo

Before I know what I'm doing, I'd shifted and am standing on her lap, licking her tear away.

Dating? What is that?

Zoey

"Dating...Like Rayah and Jace but not that close..." I said, shrugging. I looked away from him, feeling heartbreak.

Indigo

I curl up on her lap, thinking about it.

Why did you do it if it made you hurt?

Zoey

I shrug, "I didn't know." I said, standing. I let my hair down from my ponytail and climbed the tree, dangling my legs from one of the branches.

Indigo

I grunt and shift, not liking how she pushed me off. I glance up at the tree but don't try to climb it, knowing how humiliating it would be.

Maybe you should cheat on him back then... Make him hurt.

Zoey

"I don't know. I don't really know any other guy." I said, looking up at the sky.

Indigo

I study her and then look down at myself.

Wait. I'm not a male? I was under the impression that I was...

Zoey

I look down at him. "What? You meant..." I swallowed. "Yeah, Your a guy. But Like...Really?" I ask, jumping down.

Indigo

I look at her.

I don't understand what dating is, but I will assist in revenge if you like. Payback should always be issued.

Zoey

"Ask Jace what dating is...It might be different for guys..." I said, leaning against the tree.

Indigo

I study her.

I don't call him that. I call him Master. And I don't want to ask. I'm fine with not understanding.
