A New World

Part 16

once i had realised the time i washed by bleeding cuts placing bandages over them not caring if anyone saw them before walking to the very edge of the forest where many people were laid to rest. i stood next to Simons grave as others stood behind me "Raven its time to speak for Simon would you like to do it?" Matt asked me caressing my back as i cried, i nodded at his question walking in front of everyone beside his grave.

"I havent known Simon long but i trusted him with my life and he did the same. I was the first person he ever told he was gay, he was there for me as i was for him. He was 14 only a mere child who was brought here because he had stolen food for his family if anything he is a couragious boy and ill never forget him. You Sacraficed your life for my little sister the day you arrived and now, today you sacraficed yourself for me. I love you Simon Wellman ill avenge your death if its the last thing i do because you never deserved to die you never deserved any of this and if it werent for me youd still be here, I know your listening Si and i ask you a favour wherever you are i need you to find someone a little girl Amelia Rosella, she'll know me. tell her i love her and what happened shouldnt have happened and i think of her everyday. thanks Si. Goodbye dear friend until we meet again shall you be forever on my mind" i said as tears fell down my face.

i walked to his grave putting his favourite shirt in and a White rose, his favourite. before walking away i took the small ring off his finger placing it around my own "Ill Protect her Si, like i said i would if this happened" i speak quietly walking away when someone grabbed me "Stop" i tell them "Its just me Princess" Malakai says "I dont care i want to be alone" i tell him walking away to our small home.

i sat on the bed crying as my cuts hurt when someone knocked "Its time for dinner" Ezra says when he noticed the bleeding through the bandages "Raven Skye you better not have" he says "just go to dinner Ezra i dont have time for this" i tell him "No" he stated "Ezra i dont care okay leave me alone im coming" i yell at him as he just walks away.

i slowly make my way to dinner but change directions as i walk to the forest. it was such a pretty night i couldnt help myself. i walked far far away when i came to an opening... the one where he died. i sat down by a tree unwrapping the bandages as i let the blood bleed out as much as it wished. my fresh blood mixed with Simons dry blood. "I love you both take care of Amelia for me Simon be the parent she never got to have" i say crying.

"Whos Amelia?" i voice spoke. i turned to see Victoria "Oh no one" i say trying to hide my tears. she sits next to me "By the sounds of it a daughter?" she softly asks but all i do is nod my head at her crying as she holds me "She was only to months old when my father Raped her and then admitted to killing her and burying her" i tell her crying harder "I lost a child too" She says "How long ago?" i ask her "A few years ago now he was 2 at the time and miriam set an attack on us and set my house on fire trying to kill me but i was out hunting and my son was sleeping in my bed that night" she says to me.

"How are you dealing i lost her 1 year ago now and i still cant handle it" i say "I dont, on the inside that is but on the outside i stay strong for my people keeping them safe because i couldnt do so with my son" she says to me. "What was his name?" i ask her "August Keighton Black" she says smiling. "I love it" i tell her hugging her when footsteps were heard "Princess?" Kai asked "Mhm?" i replied " are you okay?" he asked me "Look Malakai im sorry but i cant do this with you at least not now i need to be alone and work on myself" i state fastly letting my heart take over "Whatever" he states running off.

"i didnt know you two were a thing" she says "it only just happened but iv got too much on my mind right now" i tell her as she nods. We had went our seperate ways but she had helped me wrap my cuts beforehand. i walked back into camp and walked to Matts hut "Hey Matt, can i stay here tonight?" i ask him "Sure Rave, take my bed iv got things to work on tonight anyway" he says looking up from a desk. "My place isnt much but its all i need, you want clothes?" he asks i nod and he points to some of his clothes.

i had gotten dressed and laid in his bed, i felt weird but i couldnt see Malakai right now so this had to do. "Why arent you sleeping at your place love?" he asks me "I ended everything with Malakai" i tell him making him look up at me "I thought you loved him" he says "i did too but something doesnt feel right and i need space because of Simon" i tell him as he nods

before falling asleep a realisation came to me "Where will you sleep?" i ask him "On the floor" he states "No no its alright ill sleep on the floor i cant take your bed" i tell him "No love sleep there you need a good sleep" he says to me "Fine but your not sleeping on the floor you can sleep in your bed too its alright with me" i tell him "Alright if you say so" he says turning his laptop off and cleaning his desk before taking his shirt off "Like what you see?" he says smirking "Shut up!" i yell at him laughing while throwing a pillow at him.

He catches the pillow mid air before running and jumping on the bed hitting me with it "I give up im sorry!" i say laughing "Okay then well its time for sleep" He says laying down as i do the same almost instantly falling asleep. With the last half hour i had forgotten about crying and being sad and angry, Simon and Amelia were still on my mind but i was also happy.
