Chasing The Rejected

-CLARA-

I forgot how fun it was to spend the entire day with Damon. We didn’t do anything extraordinary, we just stayed in each other’s arms, enjoying each other’s company and as much as I never wanted it to end, I knew Damon had responsibilities to take care of and I couldn’t keep him locked up with me forever.

The next morning by the time I woke up, Damon was already gone. I let out a sigh as I tried not to be sad about it. Soon enough, all this was going to be over.

Since Damon didn’t want me getting involved in training or pretty much Anything, I hardly had anything to do these days. Delilah couldn’t even come keep me company because she also had to train.

I let out a sigh while laying on the bed, staring straight at the ceiling. What was I supposed to do with my life now? Maybe I should really get a hobby but definitely not painting.

Hours passed and I still didn’t know what to do with myself. After a while, I decided to go down and be with everyone else. Even if I don’t train there’s no harm in watching them train.

I quickly had my bath and got dressed before going down to meet the rest. I glanced behind me and let out a sigh when I saw the amount of guards that were stationed to watch me.

“Can you at least try to stay hidden? I don’t appreciate all of you breathing down my neck” I scolded but they all ignored me, not even a nod of acknowledgement.

I rolled my eyes and turned away, continuing my journey down to the training room. As soon as I got there, it was as if everyone felt my presence because they all stopped what they were doing and turned to me.

“Oh please, don’t stop because of me. I’m just here to watch” I told them with a smile then turned to Damon as he walked towards me.

“Don’t scold me please? I got really bored in the room and just needed some fresh air. I won’t interfere, I’ll just watch and…”
