Let the darkness take control.

Some sick twisted situations tend to happen when you feel good. Ever felt the need to disappear somewhere? Cause that’s what I felt right now. Dig a freaking grave and let myself drown in it.

“Viper, do you both know each other?” Jason asked, as his eyes flickered back and forth between us.

Ryker cleared his throat almost pleading me with his eyes, to not tell him. “Hm. We both study at the same school. He being the geek.” I said nonchalantly, turning sideways to snatch the aid-kit from Nathaniel who stood in the corner with his mouth shut.

“Geek? Excuse me, you’re just a stuck-up stupid queen bee.” He mumbled in the silent room. “I heard that, Ryker. Just because you aren’t popular doesn’t mean you should rub it in everyones face.” I hissed.

Ryker was about to say something but Jason stopped him, “Okay you both, stop, before you rip each others head off.” He chuckled, amused by the throwbacks.

“Shut it, old man.” I said. “What? Old? Me? The fuck? I’m j

    The dried tears. The lingering fowl scent. The devastating silence. These three things were accompanying the little girl who slept on the cold concrete floor. It had been a few months since she had been living here in the basement. The little one had befriended all the tiny living creatures that stalked around the enclosed room. The routine was repetitive. Slaps, kicks, belts. But she always had a smile on her face. A sweet angelic smile anyone could’ve had fallen for, even her kidnappers. She had endured all of the pain, only for his precious father, thinking that if someday she’d meet him, she’ll be proud for saving her special human. A bucket of cold water had been draped over her making her jolt up from her sleep. Her body shivered at the sudden contact. “Get up.” The man who she had named as Buff was standing infront of her. He was the kindest and quietest out all of them with bulging muscles---almost in his mid-twenties. He never kicked or slapped her unlike the other ones.

    Looking outside the window, my orbs scanned the ground where the girls were practicing the cheer dance.Today our school---Rainwood High; had a swimming tournament with the rival school. Sighing, I looked back at the teacher who was babbling about god knows what. “Ms. Vidal, care to repeat what I just said?” Miss Hale, the history teacher asked.The entire class became eerily quiet. Arching an eyebrow, I leaned back on my seat.Tsking, I shook my head in a no.She glared at me with a clenched jaw. The tiniest wrinkles appearing on the side of her face. “This kind of behaviour wont be tolerated in my class.” She hissed.Waving a hand at her, I blankly stared at her.Cant this old hag just shut up for once? Oh wait let’s just stab her annoying face. “Ma’am just throw her out of the class, she is not letting us concentrate.” A girl whispered. My eyes landed on the intruder and I snarled in anger. Fucking Lilliana and her bitch.“Why don't you shut up instead, nerd?” I sassed back. Her h

    “Fucking gorgeous.”Flora sucked in a deep breath whilst scanning me from head to toe. “This outfit was definitely made for you.” She sucked in her inner cheeks, plucking her lips out.Licking my lower lip, I grabbed the pom poms from her.“Lesbian alert,” she smirked. Chuckling, we both strided towards the pool.“Trust me, the guys are gonna go nuts over you, again.” She nudged me in the side. Glancing at her for a moment, I shook my head in amusement. “Says the one who has half of the population behind her back.”“Oh girl, I was born to rule over them.” She winked and walked out.The smell of chlorine once again entered my nose, making me gag in response. A wave of nausea passed over my body as the bruises from the previous fight began to ache. Why was I freaking nervous? Why was it aching now? Fuck. “Come on, Tina.” Flora yelled from the other side. Blowing out a breath, I stalked in leaving behind all the pain that overflowed in my upper abdomen.I felt as if the time had stopped

    The late afternoon had ended with us winning the tournament. Rainwood was the winner, only because of their Captain otherwise we would have been dead ants.Caleb looked a bit sad but his wide smile had lifted up the gloomy atmosphere that was lurking around his teammates. “Yo Lina.” Ares whispered from behind, earning a shriek from me. “Holy chicken nuggets.” I instantly turned around and saw him smirk at me. “The little girl gets scared too, huh?” He teased, giving me a childish grin.“Try that one more time and I swear to god you’ll be 6ft under ground.” I huffed with a pout.“Awh, I’m scared.” He placed his palm on his cheek, leaving me chuckling at his cute behaviour. “I swear you don't want to anger the one who knows how to kill people." Winking at him, I gave him one of my menacing smile that left him all flabbergasted.“Ares, stop bothering her, you annoying piece of shit.” Caleb tsked, as he stalked towards me with a raging Apollo following behind. “Back off, hottie.” Ares gri

    Fucking nonsense. Three days had passed by. He never acknowledged me even if I sat beside him during Math hours.Fucking seventy two hours had passed since I heard his voice.After the tournament, I didn't had the energy to go to the party. Apologizing to the trio, I had ended up sniffling and crying in the room with a box of tissues beside me.How pathetic of me. Right now, I had been sitting in the corner near the window, nausea hitting me after every second. The bruises were still aching. That fucker landed some harsh punches on me. Got to deal with him later on. “Class finished. Don't forget to write the essay, the due date is next Monday.” The science teacher---Miss Hailey stated, arranging the books.Series of groans were heard from the students.Ignoring, I packed my bag and strided out towards the cafeteria. My group was no where to be seen, they were probably ditching school today since they had decided last night to escape this hell hole for a while.Lucky them.Grabbing

    The little girl ran hastily in the middle of the night. Her little feet brushed against the thorny bushes on the muddy ground. Her labored breathing and the burning within her chest grew as her will to fight grew and grew after each second. The same deep voice ringing within her mind; “run as fast you can and don't look back.” The monsters she was told to hide from were chasing her without any effort. The adrenaline pumping in her veins left her all sweaty and tired. Her legs almost gave away when her body collided with the huge rock infront of her.“Catch her, quick.” Turning around, she saw several men just a few meters away. Grabbing the rock for support, she stood up and ran off again, without worrying about the pain that was surfing on her stomach. Her erratic thumping heart telling her to run for her life. Swiftly, she came across a small cave. The thick and protruding branches lingering infront of it having it concealed from naked eyes. She pushed herself inside, the sha

    The bad memories often come back to you in your nightmares, disturbing the once peaceful moments of life.I was always a firm believer of love.Growing up, mom and dad had loved me, pampering my little self to such extent that it was impossible to live without them. Once, I tried to lock myself in the room all angry just because mama hadn’t bought me my favorite chocolate, but then daddy came running with a bag full of sweets and candies.Those days were the best days. No sadness, nothing. As time passed slowly, everything crumbled down, leaving me in utter emptiness.That day when he brought me to visit my dad, the naive girl within me thought he was going to let us live but I was wrong.Extremely wrong.He killed daddy infront of my eyes, slowly yet with immense torture. With daddy, he killed my soul as well. “Celestina?”Stay with me. The film was on repeat, cruelly. His dead gaze had erased me from this numb world. There was nothing I could do.

    Destiny can sometimes be cruel. Very cruel.“Another one.”The guy infront me sighed as he rubbed the counter with the cloth. “Are you sure?”Nodding, I slid the glass towards him. “Stronger this time.” Shaking his head, he replied, “I’m afraid not. You’ve already drank twenty-two shots in a row.”Rubbing my temple, I looked at him in disbelief, “can't a human drink away their sorrows?”“You’re underage.”“And suddenly everyone dancing and drinking here---is at legal age.” Scoffing, I hopped off the chair.Digging through my purse, I roughly placed the cash on the counter. “Thanks for the service. Hopefully I never come here again.”Without hearing his answer, I stumbled out of the club.The off-shoulder tightened thigh length fabric around my body made it difficult for me too breathe.“Such a hottie.”Wiping off the sweat, I walked pass the group of drunken boys. “Hey baby, come here.” One of them said.Ignoring, I kept on moving until I was a few meters away from them.“Ignoring, da

    Ten painful minutes.It had been ten minutes since I was sitting here in Mr. Diaz's office and him staring at me like a hawk.My lips parted, attempting to start a conversation between us but he was faster than me. "Sorry to call you here on a short notice but I have been wanting to talk to you alone, ever since I saw you earlier."I clammed my fingers around each other and I nodded, ever so slightly, replying, "what did you want to talk about?"His stare turned into the slightest glare, as he leaned back on the couch."I'll not beat around the bush, so let me ask you this straight, do you have a thing for Zachariah?"My breath immediately hitched and my a line of shiver ran down my spine, there and then.Did I have a thing for him? Yes. Maybe, even greater than the feeling of infatuation, but would I tell him---his dad? Simply, no. I just couldn't, not even to Emilia.I was about to deny, but he casually exclaimed, as if he knew what I was about to to do. "Before you reply, think wis

    I stared at the wall.Stared and just stared.Well, what was I supposed to do? After he left me all hot and bothered.And to put a cherry on top, that fucker smirked, smirked!"Are you gonna sulk like an idiot?"My head whipped towards Flora who had a glass of red juice in her hand as she leaned against the wall with a lazy smile adorning her face.I gave her a quick scan over. She was now wearing the same dress, in which we had entered before."Party's over?"She hummed, coming inside, with my dress in her other hand.Why didn't I notice it before? "Change and be downstairs. Apparently everyone decided to watch a movie." She mumbled, throwing the dress and my pantie at me which I swiftly caught.I gave her a blank nod, not before asking, "won't you ask what happened?""Whenever you're ready because I'm hoping it to be extra juicy." She gave out a light chuckle and in return I rolled my eyes. "Horny fuck."She laughed out again and walked out, closing the door behind her.My lungs ex

    The world around me felt insanely hazy.Black, and turned off.And honestly I did prefer it that way, after everything that took place in my life.It was beyond just the universe, and above the horizon."Celestina, open your eyes."My body slightly stirred up at the sound entering in my ears. "Open up." The voice again demanded yet again near my face and at the very same time it felt so far away from my reach."Why isn't she waking up?" The light airy whispered, providing me a sense of comfort.The other didn't speak, however they did touch my forehead and this seemed to clear the haze and finally my eyes peeled open.The first thing my eyes met, were the blueish green orbs I loved more than anything in this goddamn universe."Oh thankgod. Tina, you fucking scared us."I broke off the eye contact, and tilted my head sideways to see a frightened Flora, kneeling next to my body."Chill, Lora."She gasped and gave me her infamous glare. "Chill? If it weren't for Zachariah, you'd be out o

    Three words; I hate attention.Most importantly, from those who looked like they'll punch each other dry."You, good?" Nathaniel sat beside me on the pool floor, with his legs dipped in like I had.My lungs expanded and I heaved in a deep sigh, before whispering, "why are they staring at me?"Nathaniel's brows scrunched as his line of sight followed mine towards the pool. Ryder, Noah, Zachariah were on one side while Alexander, Caleb, Ares and Apollo on the opposite. Funny, I had two Ares in my life---one that had kidnapped me, then saved me with his own hands and the other which was a jokester and a swimmer.The world is truly funny, no?"Just staring? I thought, they are glaring." Flora said, tilting her head up towards me.She was already in the pool taking in the coldness of it."Aren't you coming?" Apollo questioned for the fifth time.I shake my head. "No, not in a mood.""Common, don't be such a mood killer, pretty princess." Ares spoke from beside him, only for me to roll my e

    "So how do you like party so far?""Pretty good, and specially love the tenders you grilled."Emilia let out a soft laugh, as she massaged a thick layer of sunscreen on her arms. "Oh darling, it wasn't me, it was Nathan, Zach and Roberto."My eyes scrunched at the last name and she instantly mumbled Zachariah's dad."Hold on! The infamous Roberto Diaz is your husband?!" Flora screeched almost too loudly, making her laugh yet once again. "Yeah the poor wife of his is me.""No wonder I felt your name a bit familiar." She hummed to herself and I found myself getting confused. "Is he that famous?"Flora nodded at my question. "Girl, the news has said he runs the biggest chains of hotels and restaurants. And not to forget he has this company, called D.Co, news--this is one of the largest operating systems here in U.S and all over Europe."D.Co, where did I hear this word again?"And they are like billionaires."Emilia continued to apply, with a small smile. "Money doesn't buy everything Fl

    "Do I look okay?"Flora gives me prolonged stare. "If you say it once again, I'll fucking bash your head."I sheepishly smiled."Don't give me that. You already know you look hot, so why being self-conscious?"I shrug and lean backwards.The past fifteen minutes, we were sitting idly in the parking lot with several other expensive cars lingering beside us. If one thing I would comment on this family---it was, hella luxurious.And to put a cherry on top, we were more than half an hour late. Zachariah even called me a few times which I ignored to the fullest."It's about Scarlett, yes?"I close my eyes for a bare moment before opening them once again."Nailed it. But why?""I don't know...The way he looks at her is different from the way he looks at me."Flora sighs, giving me one of her best glares she could muster. "Babe, you should be happy that the way he looks at you is different." My eyebrows scrunch and she further elaborates, giving me her full attention. "Remember I told you,

    He was here a moment ago, kissing me.I let out a strangled breath as I inch up, elevating myself with the help of my elbows."Now tell me, why were you crying?" He sat on the chair with his one leg draped over the other and his arms crossed over his chest.I sit, lowering my skirt to cover however my hand abruptly halt when he growled under his breath, daring me no. My gaze moved towards him and to my surprise I found him starring at me.I shrug and disobeyed him, hiding away the red from his stare, getting a grunt. "That was just not nothing, Celestina. No one cries like that.""Were you watching me?" I questioned instead.He quirks his brow in return.I heave a deep sigh and lean back on my hands, tilting my head up towards the ceiling. "You can go back to your 'i'm ignoring you' expression, it was much better."He scoffs. "Trust me, it was. Scar was begging me to come back to my original self and for some reason it cuts the tension you were giving me."I roll my eyes at the mentio

    "Is he ignoring you?"My brow rose and I simply gave Flora a half hearted shrug. "Am I supposed to know?""Shouldn't you?" She interlinked her arm with me.I once again shrug. As we both walked side by side towards the ground to attend our free period, my mind took me back to the day after we had done our shopping. It had been three days? Or could be more, since I barely saw him afterwards. Either he wasn't present or either he perfectly ignoring me. Whatever it was, it was messing with my brains.Oh and did I forget to mention? My mum wasn't a tad bit surprised when I told her I boxed to get the frustration out of me and that those men were the ones who messed with me and my friend's club, infact her chest had swelled with pride.Weird? I know right."Let's grab a ball or something?" She asked and I shook my head in a no. "Maybe you could go and play, I'll just sit for a while."She gave me a quick side glance. "And you think I'll leave you all alo---""Flora, our practice!" Two girl

    Hot, fucking hot.Almost like a flowing lava that could burn your flesh.My eyes remained fixed on his, as I pressed the intercom and mumbled the burning sentence. "Can you bring a sheer lace one, in the color, red?"If he was going to play the game, then why would I fucking back down?The specs of blue moons in his eyes were glimmering with an emotion I couldn't put my finger on. The white light brought the rough lines of his face to life and for once he looked extra sexy---not that he didn't look everyday but today mine was an exception.I liked the way he was pressed against me. The softness of my body molding against the hard rigids of his. It felt nice...good.Zachariah stared deeply into my eyes for a brief moment. And then he tilts his head backwards. "Aren't you a freaky one?" He whispers against the soft silence.My finger leaves the intercom. The same hand travelled up his chest in the slowest way possible. "And you are not? Boyfie.
