Nefarious

The gaping hole in my chest won't leave

a/n the smut in the prev chapter was made by@Nekojta and all of the smut in this book will probably be made by them too. 

I lean on the her shoulder, my breath hitting her nose as I smirk

"don't tell me you want to go now?"

I feel her flinch, and smirk once more at the shiver that passe through her when I start to speak

"I thought death was an adventure" I whisper seductively, eyeing both her and her friend. 

They share a look before the girl jolts up and grabs her friends arm as they sprint off. I land on my head, an aching feeling due to the rock I hit it off.

Snarling slightly I shadow travel to where they'd be in the next few seconds and place a branch in the way. 

I quickly disguise myself in the horde of trees and bushes as I watch the taller girl fall over it, a proud smile etching onto my face

The area turns grey, and the two girls go rigid. 

What?

Slowly their faces start to fade away, not them themselves, but their facial features fade away, and suddenly I can't remember who they even are.

The area quickly changes to a brighter scene. 

"Jennie please, please for the love of anything dark and creepy sleep on the bed tonight." a soft female voice pleads, making my heart ache

But why?

I nod and sigh slightly walking over to the bed. I lay on the edge of the bed and hold myself, wanting warmth but knowing I don't deserve it. 

I never have

The room goes dark, but I'm still here. Their still here.

A shuffling in the bed lets me know that she's in with me.

"Jennie, you can come closer you know? I'm not going to do anything" The warm voice says, slight bitterness leaking out of her mouth

Before I can even control my mouth the words come falling out

"I don't wanna make you uncomfortable" I whisper

Pathetic

I hear a sigh before a long and soft arm wraps perfectly around my waist, tucking me into them like a missing jigsaw piece

It makes me whimper softly, the intimacy of the whole thing making my cheeks turn bright red.

"Look, I'm always uncomfortable with being close to people. So stop stressing and have a good night sleep" they say, obviously on the verge of sleep

"thank you ----"  I whisper

Their name seems to fade into the room, making it impossible to know who the hell it is

I feel their breathing even out, letting me know their asleep

I sigh and close my eyes, trying to shut out the memories that fill my head

Bloodied hands
Bodies everywhere
Father shouts at me. Not good enough
Mother looks at me in disgust
Adelpha leaves. . . .

Small sobs rack my body, and I try to desperately to stop them

"Hey, hey what's wrong? Am I hurting you?"

I shake my head as the tears carry on flowing

"N-no. I'm sorry, it happens every night" I admit, voice raspy from crying

They pull me even closer and kiss the top of my head softly

"shh, try to sleep, I promise i'll be here if you need someone to talk too" They whisper comfortingly

Before I can hear my own response, the scene goes white, and my head starts to pound. It feels like someones taking a pair of scissors to my brain, slowly snipping each and every line in an attempt to remove the damn thing.

Everything starts to get dizzy and I feel my self slowly losing consciousness. Two words echoing in my mind 

Not forever
