Fair warning: This short story contains violent depictions, which may be disturbing to some, it also includes cussing/curse words.
"I thought you were here to support me, help me, and care about me, but it just feels like you're only here to bother me!"
"Well, I'm not trying to on purpose, just calm down and look up at the spiraling swirls of colors the beautiful night sky."
"I don't care about those darn stars Sage!"
"I'm sorry, I hope you can calm down while I leave you to your own accord. I'm going home Rosey."
"Okay, well don't tell mom and dad I'm staying the night at Betrox's please?"
"I won't, I promise."
Sometimes I wonder why my brother bothers me so much and then is randomly kind.
I suppose he's right, laying here in this starlit meadow could calm me before I go to Betrox's..
Well I should get up to be going now.
(A bit later as Rosey walks outside of the meadow she sees a suspicious guy walking on the sidewalk parallel to the one she's walking on)
Why is he walking faster? I don't know but I need to get to Betrox's,
I can't walk through the meadow path because I'm already here. I think I should begin running.
"Hey! Rosey! Wait up!"
Oh, that's.. Jordan, nobody suspicious at all.
"Oh hi Jord. What's got you out this late?"
"Oh just Betrox sending me to your beloved meadow. He wanted you to come early tonight, he's got plans he'd like to discuss."
"Alright, I thought you were someone else and that's why I started running."
"I understand, if I saw a guy approaching me and speeding up in the dark I would do the same."
"Well Jord, I appreciate you walking with me and being a messenger, it really helps out."
"Yeah, I really only do this because it's the only way anyone seems to care for me."
"Well I hope you find someone to care about you not just for being a messenger soon."
Jord has plenty of girls who like him, I don't get what he's talking about.
"Did Sage bother you in the meadow again?"
"Yeah he did, how'd you know?"
He probably saw him walking back home..
"He texted Betrox to tell you when you get there that he is sorry for bothering you"
Of course he did,
"Well I just hope he's won't let my parents know the sleepover is at Betrox's house, they don't like him."
My parents hate Betrox, and I'm not even sure why.. possibly because he's a bit of a trouble kid though.
"Yeah I know your parents hate him."
"Well, we're almost to Betrox's, just gotta go up this hill and make a right."
As I am looking at his phone I notice him checking the time after messaging his parents 'Will be there soon!' the time reads 11:53 PM, he better be going home.
"Yeah, it's been nice talking to you, I gotta go home because it's almost midnight and you know my curfew."
"Well goodbye Jord, hope you and Jack can get a good night's rest tonight, since you might need it for whatever Betrox's got planned."
"Trust me, you and I will, and Jack might want to pitch in some too."
"Well this sounds fun."
"Bye Rosey."
