Chapter Fourteen

Special song for this chapter:
If I build a home on the moon– Picture this.
---------------------------------------

I was surprised. Shocked. Confused. A lot more indescribable emotions were running through my head. I had found a loophole to the click-clack. Ducky did it almost all night. But she stopped if I entertained her. If I did what she asked. And she asked me to catch her as she ran into the water. I did. I also ran into the water until I was submerged. And when I came out she would be gone. But when I came out today, Ronan was there. I couldn’t forget the fear in his eyes. And he shouted at me. He had never shouted at me before. Never. So I was kind of surprised. 

I stared at the two bottles of drinks he brought me. I smiled. I walked over to them and after taking a brief sniff of the smells I decided to drink cherry juice right now. I was in the mood of drinking something cold so I added some ice cubes and poured the drink into my favorite smoothie mug. I sat down on the couch in the living room right under the air conditioner and pulled the curtains apart. I grabbed my phone and turned on a playlist. The soft strumming of the guitar filled the space as I grabbed the diary and opened it up. There were only two entries left and I knew Ducky wouldn’t be here until tomorrow night if she was to continue this mayhem of madness. This was the only time I could read it. I had already postponed my dinner with Tory tonight to lunch. I wouldn’t have any time. I had to go to Dr. Kimberly too. Fuck, I was very busy. 

17th July 2019.

I was fucking happy. So happy, I forgot to even tell you about it. So some days ago, I and Ronan we’re sitting in his room, playing with a very naughty Levi. He had gotten cuter and I could not contain my happiness whenever I saw him. Ronan told me and I quote him “Your eyes turn a brighter blue whenever Levi is around.” 

I ignored him as I played with Levi. But late at night, he asked me to come to the beach with him. I did. And neither of us spoke as we both sat on the sand and he played songs. I asked him to learn one of Taylor's songs and he did. I was laying on my back while he played it. I hummed along with it and so did he. He hummed quite well. I mean, I wanted him to sing me a song but I didn’t ask him to. 

“Do you wish sometimes we all were dead?” My eyes widened at the darkness of that question. 

“Why would you say that? At this time?” I got up when he didn’t reply. “Did something happen? Did you get more depressed? Did Kate bitch about something again?” 

Kate was a bitch. Some days ago we were sitting in the living room and were playing Xbox when she came running down and started shouting at Ronan about how his cat ruined her makeup. We tried to calm her down but she just kept getting redder and redder and knocked down a big glass antique. It broke and one shard ended up scratching Levi. His cheek started bleeding and he started wailing. Jules came down from her room and Kate had the audacity. The audacity to start crying and blaming it all on Ronan. Who was entirely innocent? But she forgot I was right there. I had never snapped at someone so hard in my life. And after I told her the truth, Jules realized that it was her daughter. That fucking bitch. Levi had to go to the hospital to get the small piece of glass out from her cheek and Kate was still under room arrest until she came out to apologize to Ronan. 

“No, I am not depressed and Kate apologized,” Ronan told me. 

“She did? I never thought she would.” 

“Yeah, well she had to go with Meredith and Lana. So she apologized.” He didn’t seem that fazed about it.

“Bitch.” I scowled as he laughed. “If everything is alright, why’d you talk about dying all of a sudden?” He looked down at his guitar and smiled.
