Mat's P.O.V.

I shifted my gaze upwards, Vikk and Lachlan holding hands while Merome made out on the dusted grass.

To be honest, I kind of feel left out. My vision blurring I stared at the twinkling night sky,

The moon showering specks of light onto the shadowed paths. Gosh, why is this such an unfair world?

Slowly crawling back into my own thoughts I flinched as I remembered a very painful memory.

~Flashback~

 I laughed as he gazed at Rob, slowly lifting the gun I aimed it at Preston's chest.

"Hey Preston!" I shouted causing Jerome and Mitch to tense once they saw what was in my hands. Jerome shaking his head eagerly, his eyes wide it was too late.

"Yeah Mat?" Preston replied shifting his gaze to me, his whole body going stiff as I pulled the trigger with the back of my thumb.

Shouts of panic went across the area causing a smile to form on my lips. The gun shot blaring in my ears I watched Preston dodge it swiftly.

My gaze turning to something else for less then a second I yelped as I felt something wrap around my neck and slam me into the ground.

My head snapping straight I felt my breath catch in my throat as I saw a pair of demonic, red eyes staring into my soul.

 A murderous look to them Preston growled slamming me into the ground again,

 His wings spread threateningly I heard everybody shouting as he prepared to kill me. Kanine like teeth rested on his lips as he growled.

His tail raising above us I flinched, my eyes widening I shut them, preparing for impact when he struck downwards.

Something cold slithered around my throat. It was smooth yet scaly. Opening my eyes they practically popped out of my skull

As I felt my lungs squeeze in on me. My whole head burning as he blocked the path for my mouth to breathe in air.

 Coughing I shook my head begging as he lifted me higher into the air. Preston slowly turning his head as a voice called his name

He dropped me instantly, kneeling down I rolled onto my back. Blood swimming around my mouth I spat it out.

Anger filled my insides as I saw Preston hug Rob, how could they forgive him so easily?!?!?

"YOU FORGIVE HIM?!?! JUST LIKE THAT?!?! HE ALMOST KILLED ME!!!!!" I screeched not realizing what I was doing I continued,

Just to make him be sorry for what he has done. My feet bringing me unwillingly out of anger towards Preston.

"Mat stop...He told you he was set off and what do you do? Be idiotic enough to go ahead and try shooting him. It's not his fault, it's yours." Jerome intercepted,

Blocking my path entirely from Preston as he walked right in front of me. Not moving an inch.

"ALL THE MORE REASON NOT TO BE WITH HIM!!!! HE'S A DANGEROUS NO GOOD DEMON SPAWN FROM

HE** AND SHOULD GO BACK TO WHERE HE CAME FROM!!!!" I screamed my eyes widening as soon as the words left my mouth.

Hurt showed clearly on Preston's face as he locked eye contact with me. I didn't care...I just wanted revenge....

It was always a competition, see who had the last laugh. Battle of the Brawns....I was stupid....

"MAT!!!!!" Rob yelled as I pushed past Jerome, Snatching Preston by his shirt

I pulled him towards me, his brown eyes flickering with red I pushed his buttons.

"MAT ARE YOU CRAZY?!?!?!" Mitch hollered his voice shrill as he panicked afraid of my safety I continued.

 "I'M ONLY SHOWING YOU GUYS HE'S DANGEROUS AND NOT USEFUL, LIKE ROB!!" I pushed on,

Snapping the last straw in half I felt something whip across my face as a screech blared in my ears.

My left cheek stinging I raised a hand to my face. Placing it gingerly where the Preston's tail had been mere moments ago.

His claws slashing down on me I managed to put my feet onto his chest, kicking him off he lunged back towards me.

Sinking his kanine like teeth into my skin. Screaming in pain I felt myself being picked up and tossed into the air, landing in mud.

Opening my eyes my vision was blurry from all the pain....Why did I do that?

What have I done?.....


~End Of Flashback~

Regret fuzzed my mind as I thought about what I did, I regret everything, I regret it all.... I need to apologize, because I haven't got the chance to yet...

I just hope he accepts....
