Endless Lines

Noises

Chapter 25

You know those voices in your head that just keep getting louder? Thats what was happening to Hope. She was fighting her darker self, although she was here physically. Mentally, every time she closed her eyes she wasn't.

Her voices were loud, telling her to turn it off. She was fighting with all her will power not to but the guilt she felt over Kaleb wasnt helping.

She twisted in her sleep, Jo beside her. The brunette was sound asleep too. The fall out from last night had her exhausted, she had almost died at the hands of the auburnette. Not that she'd ever blame the girl, she knew it wasnt really her.

"Let me take control" Her darker self spoke, the woman looked exactly like her. With a leather jacket and black high heals. "No, you killed my friend" She fired back, furious.

"Your anger is only giving me more power. You cant handle this, Hope. You cant handle the things I can."

"Im not weak" She spat. "You are" Her mirror self mumbled, she was calm not at all threatened by the real Hope.

It was like looking at a mere imagine of herself.

"Hope, wake up." Jo shook the girl, jumping her from out her slumber. She glanced around, the room was dark.

"What time is it?" She asked, looking to the tired brunette. "3AM" she answered. "You were shaking"

"Oh, I'm sorry" She laid back down, turning her head to look at the girl. "Were you having a bad dream?" She questioned kindly.

"A nightmare" Hope whispered.

"Anyway I could help?" The brunette yawned. "No, I can handle it"

"I love you" The brunette whispered, closing her eyes. "I love you too" Hope replied with a sigh.

She looked to the emptiness seeing a shadow of herself. "How are you here?" She asked. "Im gaining more power" Herself answered with a smirk.

"Babe, who are you talking to?" Jo asked, opening he eyes to find nothing there. "Nobody, its nothing. Get some rest"

The brunette hummed, extremely tired.

Hope sighed, it seemed as if she would never catch a break.

Liam held his wrist out to the boy, healing him with his blood. "Blood is horrible" Theo mumbled "Especially yours"

"Ouch" Liam turned around, putting up his jacket and without another word he turned off his lamp. Theo and him hadn't talked much these past few days. With Theo dating Jed, he never really spent time with Liam. And it seemed every time they had the chance to catch up Liam didnt want to.

"Li" He called out, hoping the boy would turn his lamp on but he didnt.

Theo stood up, biting his check. "Li?" He sighed, feeling defeated. "I'm just gonna go to Jeds room" He let the boy know, incase he was listening then he shut the room door.

They weren't suppose to be out past Curfew but Theo didn't much care. After all he was the headmasters son.

He knocked on the boys door, it was only a few doors from his room. Jed opened the door, he was found standing there without a shirt. "Theo, hey" He instantly smiled, inviting the boy in with his arm. "Its late, what are you doing here?"
