2024-10-29 19:42:56My classes went uneventfully, and because I had Elijah and Nate by my side I had a lot of fun. I was beyond happy and jolly! I never knew school could be this fun. My old school was equivalent to Satan's residence, I never had any friends and what you may call the 'outcast' of the school. I was even bullied!
But this? This was heaven! I haven't felt this happy and laughed so much in ages. It felt nice to have fun. Especially when I have my friends by my side.
Right now, I was walking to my second last class of the day and that was Spanish and then I had my last class Arts. I don't know how but I felt almost confident as I walked with a skip in my steps. Being in Nate's and Elijah's company almost made me confident and brave even. Maybe this was the true me and being in their company brought it out? Shrugging I continued to walk happily with a wide grin on my face.

I nearly jumped at his deep gruff voice and like a deer caught in headlights, I looked at him with wide eyes. He screamed trouble and mischief and I wanted nothing to do with him.I twirled the end of my shirt nervously and turned to face my canvas ignoring him entirely. He gave me not-so-good uncomfortable vibes.Please God don't let him kill me."Are you ignoring me bunny?" He muttered in a low voice, leaning towards me slightly and I still refused to look at him and continued to sketch. He will just get bored of me and leave me alone soon."The name is Clade" He whispered after a couple of seconds, I couldn't understand why he couldn't take a hint and still was continuing to make an effort while I was ignoring him. I felt bad. This was the same as when I used to talk to other people and they'd ignore me. Omg, I'm a horrible person."M-my names..Alara" I uttered after a few seconds nervously a

It took everything in me to not flinch at the boys standing in front of me in a line. I gulped and counted, holy chicken wings, they were six from what my eyes could see. Six! Six and I was one, a little unfair, don't ya think?"Aww look guys, the little girl is shcawed" I cringed and chuckled nervously as one of the boys mocked me. I wasn't scared, I was just plain nervous.Ok, I'm scared."Um- hi?" I squeaked out and punched myself in the head. Seriously? I wanna die. Please God, make a big hole in the front for I shall fall and die in it.The boys laughed and my heart skipped a beat when a boy with electric blue hair started to walk in front of me, chocolate fudge! I can't even run back into the bathroom cuz they'd just jump over the door and it'd corner me even more. And I can't straight since the monkeys are blocking the entrance.I clenched my fist, and lo

"She's dead?!" I blurted out and my eyes widen as I realized my mouth has, yet again, embarrassed. Great. I face palmed and peeked from my fingers to see Elijah looking back at me with a small smile and amusement dancing in his now light eyes."Yes, Angel I think that's what I meant, yeah" He nodded to himself teasing me and I blushed a little in embarrassment and hid my face with my hands."I'm sorry" I whispered twiddling my fingers nervously and pulled my bottom lip between my teeth."Don't worry your pretty little head about it Angel" He murmured in a low raspy voice and then he brought his hand freeing my lip out of my hold."And don't do that either" He whispered clenching his jaw and fists while I looked at him with a confused frown."Why?" I whispered back and pulled my lip between my teeth again, it is my lip he can't tell me what to do with my own lip.

I got dressed in my uniform tiredly while Elijah and Nate waited outside the bathroom doors. I was exhausted, that nightmare tired me out, all I wanted was to go back to that cloud-like bed and fall asleep.Clutching my head in pain, I leaned back on the door groaning quietly to myself. Sizzle nut. My head pounded and my eyes hurt as I tried to focus. Ugh. How was I going to survive the whole day? I tucked my hair, which was down flowing in the air, behind my ear securing it with a pin."Lara Bear? You alright in there?" I smiled at Nate's concerned voice and decided to ease his worry by opening the door and grinned."There she is" Elijah mumbled quietly giving me a small grin nodding his head at me. I shyly looked down playing with my fingers ignoring all the other boys that were here doing their own business.Elijah stepped in front of me and I bit my lower lip avoiding his gaze as he bent do

There was a tense and awkward silence after Clade said that, and since then Nate has been tense and rigid, Elijah clenching his fist again and again, with a scary calm look present on his face."Aw would you look at that, if I didn't know you better I'd almost thought you aren't very happy to see me", He teased, his eyes had a glint of amusement and mischievous in them. His voice held an undertone of anger despite his front of a silly bad boy. I know there was more to this whole act. I have seen it. I have witnessed it at the art class.Elijah stood up aggravated, his chair falling back from the force, and Nate pressed his lips down impressed and stood up as well. I felt awkward being the only one sitting when my friends were standing so I awkwardly stood up as well. I looked at the half-eaten pancake and I sneakily picked that up and the juice box as well.Nate noticed what I was doing, and winked at me doing the same.&

I got startled at his sudden appearance and looking at him stupidly with an open mouth."You trying to catch flies with your mouth?" He said sarcastically and I quickly closed my mouth and I felt my face heat up."Uh- um- I was just- hey", I looked down twiddling my fingers hiding them with the extra-long sleeves. Oh- my shoelace is open.I was snapped out of my thoughts with his low rumble and looked at him again. He looked different. His pupils were dilated, eyes rimmed red, his voice a little bit high, and he just seemed calm? I don't know, but whatever it was, was weird and unsettling and way way different than the morning. I wiggled my toe and rubbed it against the shoe."Do I make you nervous little bunny?" He whispered in my ear, I stopped breathing for a second and he chuckled stepping off from and leaned across the wall. Phew. I let out the breath I was holding now that he wasn't

I gulped thinking about the correct way to approach the topic. Will they be mad or angry? Right now, they looked peaceful, happy, and calm so I decide not to ruin the mood and the vibe and just ask them both in the evening. Yeah, that'd be perfect.Before I knew I was yawning and it was getting hard to close my eyes and I leaned my head on Elijah's shoulder and dozed off.I wasn't completely asleep but I wasn't completely in my senses either. It was a hazy state that I wasn't unfamiliar with. It often happened when I got nightmares because they make me exhausted. I know they were talking to each other but I was too out of it to comprehend what.Gulping, I sighed tiredly wishing I'd suddenly feel refreshed and active. I hate being like this. My hands and eyes twitched and I felt someone lower me down to their lap and caress my

I wiped my eyes and without any moment of hesitancy, I leaped forward engulfing Elijah in a hug. He took deep breaths clenching his jaw and his fiat as he placed his chin on ny shoulder. I rubbed his back and neck feeling absolutely horrible.How could someone do that to a child, a child himself?He dug his face in my neck and I cradled it with my hand combing through his hair.We were so engrossed in our feelings that we didn't even notice the door open up."I wasn't aware we were having a family reunion", Nate's teasing voice snapped us out and we look at him making him frown."Why so... miserable?" He asked confusedly making me giggle while Elijah shook his head.Nate jumped on t

A grin made its way onto Lijah’s face as I blushed furiously and smacked his hand away from my gloved one. Though I didn’t need this much packing, Elijah insisted on covering me from head to toe as he didn’t want to take any chance of me getting sick. I was wearing two shirts with a warm sweater and then a trench coat with dark blue jeans and ankle boots while he himself only had a woolen jumper with a coat. “Wouldn’t you get sick? You should wear the muffler” And with that he grabbed the muffler and wrapped it around my neck while I looked at him with disbelief. “Are you serious” He just grinned tucking the muffler tighter. “I don’t get cold”, He shrugged as if he had some superpowers, but he isn’t Elsa. “Nuh uh mister, wear the muffler or else I will remove everything”, I demanded as I crossed my arms giving him a stern look. He grins at me again before pinching my nose and wearing the muffler. “Are you trying to threaten, Angel?” He teased me while I tried to control

My head whipped to the side at the impact of my mother backhanding me with full force. I fell onto the floor in a daze, clutching my throbbing cheek with wide eyes. This wasn't real. No. "You nasty bitch! Did you think it was over?! You deserve this, I should've killed you when I had the chance", She spat out every word like it was poison, making me tremble and shiver at her intense glare. I screamed as she mercilessly started to throw punches and kicks all over my bruised body, adding more to the collection. Tears fell continuously burning my eyes. Sobs and hiccups being the only thing escaping my mouth. "T..o..p, pl- stop", I whimpered out weakly making her give me a look full of disgust and fury. "You are weak and pathetic!", She sneered at me, holding my forearm tightly in a death grip. My lip quivered and beads of sweat and blood rolled from my head down my weak body. I was truly pathetic. Another sob escaped my mouth and she instantly disappeared. Scenarios changed, and I

"Where's Nate?", Elijah asked me as he dried his wet hair with a towel. I swung my legs back and forth in the air as I played with my apple phone."He had a date with Evie, so he left early in the morning", I felt guilty of crying and thinking they forgot about me. Elijah was arrested and Nate deserved to have his day after 3 weeks of continuous hangouts. It was all fine now though. The crying made my face glow.Elijah furrowed his eyebrows then shrugged throwing the towel on his chair than sitting on his favorite spot on the window sill. My eyes zeroed on his beautiful light hazel eyes that looked almost golden as the setting sun reflected on his eyes creating hues to gold and brown, his wet hair almost falling over his eyes as he ran his tongue over his lips. He looked calm and peaceful. He leaned on the wall using his hands as his pillow and I stared shamelessly at his bulging muscles and huge biceps, the protruding veins, and sharp

"All hail the monopoly Queen", West and Seb bowed down while Jordan fanned me with a notebook, and Ashton and Chase held the chair on which I was sitting in the air. I giggled loudly as West brought a paper crown on top of a cushion, and sat down on one knee holding the cushion up in his arm.I laughed loudly clutching my stomach. My face was flushed but thanks to the air conditioning in here, I wasn't sweating at all. It was 4 pm right now with still no sight of Elijah. I shrugged it off focusing on enjoying the moment. Jordan bowed. before placing the crown on my head and I raised my nose in the air and putting my hand up in the air."Stand up peasants", Jordan and Ashton chuckled while the rest pouted before standing up. Ashton and Chase placed the chair down and I giggled.If you're wondering what is going on, I won the intense game of almost 4 hours and Chase came second with Sebastian being the loser. H

I woke up confused. Where the heck in crusty tomato am I? My neck ached and I let out a moan of pain, as I stretched my arms behind my back and rubbed my neck to soothe the slight strain and ache.Groggily looking around, I blinked to clear my hazy disoriented vision to see I had slept on the floor, the book I was reading last night still in my hand, and no sign of Elijah. I glanced at the alarm clock and my eyes widen when I saw it was 11 in the morning. Omg!I need to get to Nate. I stood up hurriedly bit caring about my messy appearance as I ran outside of my room towards Nate's room, occasionally waving and greeting a couple of my acquaintances. I have made quite a few friends if I say so myself, I didn't help them with work, and being nice would result in so many friends. Of course, I was happy."Be careful, Alara", Jake shouted with a smile as I ran past him and I gave him a small grin and thumbs up. I

I squealed in pain as Nate roughly dragged the brush through the tangled mess in my hair."Nate! Be careful", I whined at him, scolding him. It was Friday night and I just came back after taking a shower when Nate popped up in my room asking if he could make my hair because he was bored, I being the nice and kind person I am let him but I didn't know he was this ruthless.Elijah was nowhere in sight, I bet he was where he has been disappearing off to in late nights, I was curious but I kept it in check, he already has told me so much I didn't want to come across as clingy." Owwww!", I yelped again and he let out a quick 'sorry'."It's not my fault, it's the brush's fault!", He said defensively, throwing his hands up in the air."I was just looking to play with your pretty long hair, I didn't know I had to untangle this whole mess", He threw the brush on t

"She is just like Aria, you know", Aria, his little sister who left him too soon. He clenched his fists tightly. He was aware. Alara was just like Aria, small, kind, warm, adorable, and innocent. "I will do the same I did to her", All Clade's attempt to rile him up or get to him was quite useless as Elijah simply pondered over whether he should break his fingers or his legs. Probably both. Clade gritted his teeth in anger as Elijah remained impassive. Then he said one thing he swore he'll never say it confess to anyone. This will earn him the satisfaction he was looking for. "I will rape the bunny the same way I did to your fucking sister", Elijah's world swept from under his feet as his jaw drop and he looked at Clade shocked to the core. He lost all his calm and composure as his sentence playing on repeat in his head. He had fucking raped his sister? His little princess, his Ari

My lip quivered and I pulled it under my sharp teeth just as my eyes well over with unshed tears, my fists clenched and shook with anger and intimidation and I looked at Clade who casually sat on his chair smoking with a blank face as I tried to get all my emotions and feelings in check. "Open this door", My voice came out surprisingly strong and I tried not to let him see any vulnerability no matter how much I was right now. He looked at me with fake surprise putting a hand over his heart." My God, the bunny speaks", He chuckled to himself and I continued to stare at him blankly. I hid my hands shaking with fear behind my back clenching them into tight fists. I failed to understand what was there to laugh about.You'll never escape this. You are pathetic and will always be.My mother taunted me in my head and I closed my eyes as my breath hitched and imaginary hands clutched my shoulders, tightening their grip by each increasing second. I found it getting harder to breathe as the g

The paintbrush glided smoothly on the canvas, leaving a streak along the lines I previously made with a pencil. I stepped back and smiled in satisfaction as I admire the piece before me. Today our art teacher taught us about abstract art and then told us to just draw with a free hand and see where it lead us. Needless to say, I was pretty pleased with how my piece turned out. I felt calm and happy. Painting always brought me peace and made me feel alive. I don't remember much about my father but I inherited this talent from him. He always had a paintbrush tucked behind his ear, his clothes covered in paint strikes and blotches that used to displease my mother and she'd always scowl at him and complain about the mess he'd make, and he'd always ignore her and hand a brush in my tiny hands. He was a great father, too late he left me with that vile woman too soon. "Ooh, damn, nice job bunny", I jumped, startled at the sudden presence of Clade, and gulped. Ever since I was made aware of
