For the rest of my life: raf x sulfus (angel's friends)

Chapter 24: I Just Died In Your Arms

His arms surrounded me. 3 months I had lived through hell trying to contain this child. He leaves. Leaves me. He leaves me all alone.

I heard a knock. I was through with people coming in just to ruin me. I think back. My suitcase firm in my hand. I step in front of a bus, while I hear laughter. Almost breaking the VETO before I knew the rules. He was playing me for 3 years. Not only 3 months.

Lucas went to answer the door. He knew I was sitting there in a frantic. Arken stepped through immediately spotting me. Lucas stepped aside. His approach has no effect. I never looked up.

"You realize the damage you have caused?" He asked. I nodded.

"He's gone professor. For good," I remained looking down. He placed a hand on my shoulder. It was almost comforting. Almost like a dad. Maliki never got to be there. Only protecting me once. He deserved better than me. So did Angeli.

"Do you want to talk about any of this first? Explain yourself?" He asked me. I didn't want to talk. I shook my head no.

"I can only help your situation if you talk to me. The High Spears know of what is happening to you. I do as well-" he started.

"I don't care what happens. You have no idea! Ever since I met him, I felt a spark. Not by touch, but in my heart! I wanted it to go, but it wouldn't disappear. He wouldn't leave. After the first kiss, his touch was locked in my mind. Every time he touches me, I feel the same connection. Yes, his kid is inside me. Why is it wrong? Because we aren't the same? Well he left me, so you won't have to worry anymore," with that, I walked out of the room.

My eyes were flooded with emotion, anger. It poured from my words. I had never been in such an emotional state. Arken stepped through the door. "I realize this is an emotional time. I have to take you back to Angie Town, unfortunately. I understand you can't control your feelings, but there was no need to act upon these feelings," his words cut me.

"She is staying here with me. I was given a job. I have I get her through this pregnancy, and I have to keep her safe. It's my job," Lucas stood in the door. His hands broke past Arken, and stood in front of me.

"This is not smart on your behalf. I will have to have her forcefully removed. That child is a threat." With that, he exited.

"I understand your grieving, but we have to leave. They will hunt you down, and take you," he grabbed my bag, and shoved my things in. He grabbed my hand, and I followed without a single word.

We headed through the door, and into the street in an instant. "How do we get out?" I asked.

"That," he pointed to a bus. "It's the only chance we have without getting tracked."

My hand laced his as we ran through the city. the bus was crowded. I couldn't find a seat, and I really needed to sit. I was getting weak. My stomach ached. I crouched down a little grabbing at my stomach. Lucas rubbed his hand across the back, "We'll be out soon."

A woman got off, and I took her seat. An elderly woman who was previously standing glared at me, and I stood. "Sit down, Raf." Lucas looked at the woman, "I'm so sorry, she's pregnant," the woman nodded and I sat.

The bus was about 4 hours out of town, and made its final stop in Richmond, Virginia. We stepped off, and got directions to the closest hotel.

We grabbed a room, and went to rest. "I need to change. Will you hand me my bag?" He handed me the bag. I opened it to find Kabale's belongings fitted into the small duffle bag. I pulled out a t-shirt, and headed to the bathroom.

I removed my previous shirt, and slipped into Kabale's, which revealed a small portion of my stomach. I walked out.

"Can I borrow something?" Lucas laughed and threw me a t-shirt.

"Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to who's clothes I got you," he smirked and watched me walk to the bathroom.

I slid the black shirt off, and put on the blue t-shirt with a halo peering on the side. Her pants didn't fit, and I knew they would fall down if I tried Lucas's.

I walked out of the bathroom as Lucas glanced, and started to stare. I watched him as I threw the small clothes into a bag. He slipped out of the bed as I got in. "I'll sleep on the floor," he winked.

"There is plenty of room up here. Please don't do that," he followed my direction. He untucked the sheet and piled in beside me. Never have I been in a bed with another boy but Sulfus.

"Raf?" His voice calmed me as my eyes closed.

"Yes?" I leaned into his voice, closing my eyes. He didn't respond. I shouldn't have, but I did. I opened my eyes to his face. He was staring down on me. A calming emotion rushed through me. I was terrified. This was so wrong.

"How are you feeling?" His voice brought me back to a pleasant place.

"Fantastic," I moaned. I rolled to my back to stare at the ceiling. I took a breath in, then slowly breathed it out.

"What you said to Arken, was that how you felt when you met him?" He looked down on me.

"Yes. Very much so. His touch made me feel like I'm not alone. I thought he felt the same, but it was all a lie. Have you ever been in love with someone from the spark you get shocked with?" I wanted to be able to relate with him.

"I'm starting to feel that way. I don't think Sulfus would purposefully hurt you. He picked what he had to do-"

"He had to pick between two needs. I need him. More than anything, and he left willingly. He could have at least fought for me. That was my breaking point. You were there for me," He didn't respond. I switched my head to look at him.

He began to speak, but lost the words. I couldn't help myself. I leaned into him, and our lips connected. The lust for each other began to show as the kiss deepened. My anger all came out, and forced its way into his mouth. This was so right in the moment, but wrong in a public perspective.

He grabbed against my waist, and I thought he was going to push me away, so I stopped. I caught my breath. Instead he smirked, and pulled on me to come closer. I gave in for a minute, and began to retract.

"This is wrong," I let my head slide down.

"Very! You seem to have a thing for people you can't have," my laugh grew. It was true. I wanted what I couldn't have, even though I got it.

I got Sulfus. I was in love with him. He's gone, forever, and I have to move on to my next desired thing. As much as I hate to say it, that person is my half-brother. "I'm going for a walk," I said, grabbed my coat, and headed through the door.

The wind howled under the dark night. "Raf." I turned around.

Quinn stood glaring. I stepped back keeping my distance. "We need to talk," She stated.

"I agree."
