MACKENZIE'S POV
"Bloody hell Macy. It's almost 2 in the morning-are you crying?"
"I-is Abraxas awake? I need to-"
"Yes. I am here Macy." I pulled him out and Avery closed the door. "I was with Tom. He-" Before I could complete, he cupped my face. "Shh I know. He gave you the death mark, didn't he?"
"You knew?"
"He said he will do it today during dinner. I didn't know he meant immediately. I'm sorry Macy. I am so sorry. I should have said something."
"You did warn me the other night. I blame myself." I sobbed. I bit my lip preventing myself from crying out loud. "It's okay Macy. Let it out. Free yourself of the baggage of emotions you're forcing yourself to carry." He hugged me, letting me sob loudly on his shoulder, rubbing my back in a comforting way. I held him tightly, like my life depended on it. "Everything will be alright Macy. You're not alone and you shouldn't be." I looked up in his eyes, deep ocean blue. It's like my hand had a mind of it's own, I fixed his messy blonde hair falling on his pale forehead. Pushing myself on my tip toes, and kissed his cheek. "Thank you for saying that, I really needed to hear that."
"Always here for you." I smiled and hugged him again as I stayed in this comfort for some time. "Get some sleep. See you class ?" I nodded. "Good night and thank you." He kissed the top of my head and I left.
----------------------------------
I was expecting this year to be amazing but here it is, everything is getting worse and worse everyday. My eyes were focused on the beautiful view from Astronomy Tower. I picked up my notebook to draw something but my eyes landed on the dark mark on my inner left forearm. I felt broken and weak again, I felt evil, supporting a heartless monster. I dragged my cold fingertips on the mark on my hand, the green skull with the snake protruding from its mouth. My mind was constantly revolving around one thing, death, innocent girl killed by the monster I'm in "love" with, dying, so many people dying in future if I don't stop him right now. I couldn't take it anymore, my mind is overloaded with these dark thoughts. I quickly sat down, took out my notebook and started writing down this short poem that popped up in my head out of nowhere.
DEATH:
"What happens after we die?
Are we free or seeking peace?
We all die eventually, don't we? One way or another.
Do we find peace or does the devil make us suffer?
Is heaven as beautiful as we imagine?
Is hell as bad after all as we imagine?
Is Heaven and Hell even real?
Who knows? It could be a conspiracy.
I believe in existence of the two.
If you don't, just concede already!
Greet Death like an old friend.
We're meant to go through difficult times in our lives.
Welcome death as a reward!
Be stronger and keep your head high.
Keep smiling until you disappear in the sky.
Doesn't matter whether you're a billionaire or a homeless man
We all eat, sleep, laugh, cry and breathe the same air.
I wish to be one of those for whom gates of Heaven are forever open.
The King of Hell, the Devil, he knows I don't belong there.
Dear God, may I make a request? Allow me to hear these words when I die:
"Congratulations! You've made it! Go on, you are finally in a better place!"Again, I'm in tears. I can't sleep at night, trying to find a way to stop him. Suddenly, my dark mark started burning. I sighed and got up. Here we go again.
I knocked on his door and patiently waited for him to open the door.
"Mackenzie! Come in!" He said and he's suprisingly in a good mood today.
"Hello Tom." I said dryly and sat down on his bed.
"How are you?" He asked and I glared at him. How does he think I am after what he is doing to me? I ignored and stayed silent.
He clenched his jaw but chose to ignore my behaviour."So, summer vacation is getting closer." He said and sat down beside me. I shifted uncomfortably before replying with a simple "I know."
"I want you to do something for me."
"I will not do something stupid for you!"
"Lower your voice! And do I have to remind you that I'm incharge here?"
I sighed and stayed silent waiting for him to go on.
"Send a letter to your parents saying that you'll be staying at Aimee's house."
"What? No! Why?"
"I won't be going back to the orphanage but somewhere else. And you're coming with me."
"Where exactly are you going?"
"You remember I told you that my Muggle father abandoned me and my mother?"
I nodded.
"I've decided to pay him a visit. He lives in village of Little Hangleton located in Yorkshire."
"I-I don't want to join you Tom. Why can't you take someone else? What about Abraxas?"
"I want to take you and you are coming with me. Send a letter to your parents today and show it to me before you send it."
I looked down at my shoes and mumbled, "I wanted to spend some time with my family."He came closer and wrapped his arms around me. How do I feel so good and secure when he hugs me? I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his neck. Hopefully we will be back soon. I'll try my best to finish it as soon as I can so that you could spend enough time with your family."
I nodded and said "Thank you."
I felt him kiss my forehead before I left his dorm.
Goodbye to good life.
