{Side story} Eyes on me // Onyx POV

The party

"Come on Aster, the party starts soon." I say to my brother from the living room. He was a lanky guy with long black hair growing from his overgrown mullet. Red eyes and fair skin. He wore a red velvet shirt under a black leather jacket, tied with black pants and sturdy shoes. He walked up to me and put his hands up. "You aren't even ready yourself." I give him a guilty smile. "Stay here while I get my outfit on then" i say, walking to my room. I slip on the dress and take a look in the mirror. The top was white with buttons, and the bottom was fluffy dyed deep red. It suited my fair skin complexion well. I tried fixing my hair, but there wasn't much you could do with a pixie cut. I ended up just putting a hair pin in of a white flower, complmenting my black hair. I walk out and usher my brother to walk. We stepped out of the house and to his 1967 Chevrolet Impala. We got seated and fixed our seatbelts on as Aster begin to drive. It was about a 45 minute drive out to our friends big mansion, but rest assured it'd be worth the long drive.

We pull up to the big mansion and I admire it as Aster parks infront. Our friend sebastian was supposed to be here with her brothers, but I hadn't seen her yet. We got out and began to walk up to the doors when I got held back into a hug. "Onyx!" They yelled. I turned around and smiled. "Sebastian! Wonderful to see you made it" I said cheerfully. Moon and Sun close behind her, I quickly turned around to hide my blush. I've had s major crush on them for the longest and have never found out if they felt the same, so I've always kept my feelings hidden. "Well, shall we?" Aster says in an impatient tone. "We shall" seb and I say in unison.

Walking in, we were greeted by friends and strangers alike. Saying our greetings, aster and I got settled on a couch in a secluded corner of the house. About an hour had passed as i noticed sebastian made her way over to some people playing truth or dare. Sun and moon had made their way to a group of people talking amongst themselves. How could I have not noticed? I adore them. I love watching everything they do. I had been interrupted from my thoughts as I felt a nudge on my foot. I look over to Aster to see him staring at me. Knowing what it meant, we both got up and began heading towards the kitchen. Grabbing a bottle of Alchohol from the kitchen, Aster made his way over to a big group of people huddled near and in the kitchen. "Any of you wanna see some bartending skills?" He says, walking away from the kitchen towards another area of the house. As people began moving, the crowd had left. Well, not all. There was a drunk woman on the couch. I make my way over to her and grab her hand. "Hey, baby.." I say. "Oh shit. I guess tonight's my lucky night..*hic* haha.." she says, barely able to get out her words without hiccuping. I bring her into the kitchen and tell her to close her eyes as I set up a surprise. Obediently, she does just that. As her eyes were covered, I grabbed a black apron from the hooks hanging up in hanging kitchen and pull up my sleeves as I then tie the apron around myself. I very quietly grabbed a knife from the counter.. and stabbed it into the base of her skull. Blood splattered everywhere, thankfully only on the apron and floor. I laid her body down and washed the knife off quickly into the sink and placed it back onto the counter. I took the apron off and threw it into the trash and carefully made my way over to the crowd of Asters. A couple of minutes had passed until we heard a scream. As the crowd rushed to see what the matter was, all I could do was smile at aster through the crowd of people.

"HES FUCKING DEAD!!" A girl screamed. Making my way over with aster, I see sebastian comforting her. "Are you sure he's dead??" She says. The girl cried as she claimed he was. I walked over to sebastian to comfort her as she started crying. "Shh, its okay." I told her. I walked her over into the library, away from everybody else and sat her down. Making sure nobody was around, I spoke. "Seriously, sebastian? The fake tears?"   " I had to make it believable, Onyx." She said. More people screamed as somebody proclaimed the doors were locked. "Perfect..." I whispered. I look at sebastian as we smile at eachother. She knows exactly what i am, and that's the best part.

WHEW!
