Chapter 18
Hayden woke up from his dream, and it wasn't from Kalina. It was about a girl that went to his school, he thinks it was some girl named Lane or Lainey or something like that. He's pretty sure it was Lane, but the dream basically said she was in the woods. He thought it was strange and wondered if she was part of the prophecy as well, but he shrugged it off. Lane was always reading and never really talked to anybody.....ever. Most stayed away from her. Anyway, he pushes aside those thoughts and changed into his training clothes after taking a quick shower. She combed his hair and stepped outside and it was pitch black. The breakfast table wasn't out yet either. "Hello?" He said out into the darkness. Nothing answered except for a squirrel scurrying across the clearing. He looked at his watch. It wasn't even 4 in the morning yet. He groaned, but got an idea. He went to Beatrix's cabin and knocked on her door. He heard a groan, sheets rustling, and the door knob clicking and turning.
"Hello?" Beatrix murmured, her hair all wacky and her eyes half closed.
"Hey, there," Hayden said with a smile.
"Go away Sadie, I'm tired," she muttered, waving her hand in his general direction.
"Uh, I'm Hayden not Sadie," he said.
"Oh, well Hayden...Hayden...Hayden," she seemed to be searching for the words to say, "Oh! Hayden!" She straightened out her hair and stood up taller and opened up her eyes more.
"Hello, Beatrix," he chuckled.
"What are you doing here so early?" She asked with a yawn.
"I didn't realize what time it was and woke up at three," he said, "So I was hoping you could keep me company."
"Nah," she said, "I'm sorry Hayden but I had a dream at like two, so then I had to go out and tell Shian about it, he stitched me up and now I'm here again, less than twenty minutes after falling asleep."
"Wait, why did he have to stitch you up?" Hayden asked.
"Apparently, Kalina hates me enough that she sent torture as well as nightmares," Beatrix said.
"Ouch, do you need me to kiss your boo boo?" He asked, jokingly.
"I'm fine," she said with a laugh, "I want to sleep though, so can you leave?" She asked.
"Yeah, sorry I bothered you," he said. Beatrix closed the door and Hayden went back to his own cabin. He laid down on his bed and soon fell asleep.
Hayden woke up soon after and looked at his watch this time. It was 7. He got up and went out the door and saw Shian, Sadie, and Beatrix eating, along with somebody he didn't know. Beatrix was looking at him kind of flirtatiously and that made Hayden angry. He stomped down to the table and sat next to Beatrix and put his arm around her. "Hello, who are you?" Hayden asked with a fake smile.
"I'm another trainer for you guys, I'm Daniel," he said, putting out his hand. I shook it.
"I'm Hayden, and I see you've met Beatrix, my sorta girlfriend," he said, giving a side hug to Beatrix.
"Sorta girlfriend?" He asked.
"Well, we don't know if we should make it official or not, but we both like each other." Beatrix explained. Hayden nodded with her.
"Oh, ok," he said, obviously disappointed. Why did everyone have to hit on Beatrix, he thought.
Anyway, everyone started to eat and Hayden whispered into Beatrix's ear, "Why were you giving him flirtatious looks?"
"Oh, he looked nice and I didn't want to hurt his feelings right away," she said. Hayden kissed her on the cheek and stopped. Beatrix stared at him, shocked, and he did the same. "What was that?" She asked.
"I don't know, it just came over me!" He said back. He noticed others staring as well.
"Well, I guess it's okay. I sort of liked it," she said, blushing slightly.
"Oh, that's good," he said. She hugged him and he hugged back. And Hayden liked her even more than he ever had before. This moment made Hayden truly know that Beatrix liked him, and it made him so happy. "Do you want to be my girlfriend?" He asked her.
"Yes," she replied and kissed him on the cheek, "I'm ready to make it official."
