Living with Death

Unforgivable deals

I was still in complete darkness.

I have been in complete darkness for about ten minutes. Nothing has happened.

I'm aware of everything that is happening to me right now.

Like how Niall is holding my hand while Liam is carrying me to the hospital.

Louis is walking next to Liam and Sophia keeps murmuring 'she touched it'.

I'm probably going to see Ashley. I hope she can help.

I was placed on a soft bed when everything went silent.

I couldn't feel what was happening around me or hear it.

Suddenly colors started to form in the darkness. They felt warm and inviting somehow.

I wasn't afraid anymore.

Until it became a picture.

There was two thrones. One was occupied while the other was vacant.

I couldn't see the face of the person sitting on the first throne. The picture cut off just above his chests. I knew it was a guy by the way he sat.

Slouched, legs slightly parted, he had a staff in one had while the other rested on his leg.

Who is supposed to be on the other one.

"Well you of course." He said.

I looked around to suddenly see that I was no longer seeing the picture but now in it.

I still couldn't see who was sitting on the first throne but I know that he was talking to me by the way he shifted in his seat.

"Why me?" I asked trying not to seem afraid.

"Because it is your destiny."

"Who are you to tell me what my destiny is." I spat at him.

"I'm supposed to be king and you are supposed to be with me sitting right here on the throne."

"I'm not "supposed" to be with anyone you got that." I was getting really annoyed with this prissy 'king.'

"Oh really than why is the Queens throne occupied." He gave me a slight smirk.

I look down to see that I was sitting in the throne. My hands formed a tighter grip around the skull shaped end of the armrest.

I felt comfortable in it like if It was mine.

I looked up to see that I was in a huge room people were clapping and cheering.

"Why are they clapping?" I asked the man sitting next to me.

"Because of you, My queen."

I looked back to the crowd and closed my eyes.

Pictures began filling my head again but they were completely different from the ones I saw before any of this happened.

They were pictures of my life, here and I was definitely having a good time.

I was snapped out the pictures by the sound a staff hitting the stone Floors of the palace.

I quickly opened my eyes and looked around. There was no one there.

It was completely silent.

I looked down again at my self. "What are you doing Asher." I thought. I quickly got off of the throne and ran straight for the big open doors.

"Don't fall!" He screamed laughing.

What.

As I reached the doors I quickly stopped just in time to not fall over the edge into a flaming pit of lava.

I turned around to see him walking towards me.

"Did you really think it would be that easy to run away from fate?"

"This is not fate. This Is a nightmare." I murmured to myself.

"And you are completely right." He said smiling. "This is a nightmare."

I turned back around to see the city surrounding the lava.

I felt him right behind me now. My body stiffened as I felt his hot breath on my neck.

He then whispered in my ear "and what's life without a little fear."

He wrapped his hands around my waist and turned me around so that I looking straight at his lips.

I still couldn't see his eyes or hair only his lips.

"And all you have to do is become queen."

It sounded so pleasing and perfect and fun. Who doesn't love fun?

But what would happen to heaven if I just stay here that's one less person on there side.

I sighed and told him "if I stay you promise to leave them alone."

"Well i don't know about promise because well it's a bit-."

"No! You promise to leave them alone and I promise to stay here and become your queen.

"Alright I promise." He squirmed a little.

"Great. Now would you mind letting me see your face?" I asked trying to act like I'm okay with being here.

"I'm letting you go home Asher for a while so no." His tone was sweet yet Stern.

"Home where my brother is or home home back to earth?"

"Home Asher, you have no business down there on earth."

"I'll take what I can get I guess." I looked down wishing I could have a normal life for just a split second.

"Before you leave we must do a deal one you can never break or we will kill everyone."

I swallowed nervously "okay"

He took my hand and walked me to a dark room. I couldn't see anything except a skull lying on a table.

Man, these people love there skulls.

I walked towards the skull unsure of what I was supposed to do with it.

"Just touch it and don't talk. I'll do the talking." He whispered as he walked to the other side of the table.

I placed my shaky hand on the skull. Did I really want to do this.

It doesn't matter if I want to do this I have to. It's the only way.

"I'm scared." I whispered to myself.

He looked up from whatever he was doing and chuckled "you should be."

I looked at him with surprise I could finally see him. If only the lights could turn on.

The skull was now glowing and shaking.

The lights flickered on and off until they stopped.

The lights were on.

I looked up to see who I had been talking to this whole time.

"Michael?"

"Hey princess."

He spoke some words in Latin and smiled.

Then I woke up.
