Diary of a Mad Poet

3 Days

It has been 3 days. 3 days since I saw Victor and his last words have never left my mind. My family could be on their way now or lurking around waiting to jump me. I don't want to lie, I've been paranoid and on defense mode since that day. Even the ghosts that normally hang around my apartment have gone into hiding.

"Kiah!" I'm startled out of my thoughts and turn facing Niko. "I've been screaming your name for the last 2 minutes!. What's wrong?" He looks so worried and it sickens me.

"You really have been acting strange for the last few day babe, is there anything worrying you?" Dominic sounds so concerned that it makes me feel like a terrible friend.

"She is worried about her mother bringing her home" Someone says behind me making Dom and Niko look over my shoulder.

I know that voice, I know that voice. Dreading to turn around, I do it slowly anyway. And there in all their glory is my mother and her mother and I just knew this was coming. I would have preferred my father over them. An awkward silence falls on us and I know Niko is dying to ask, "Kiah this is your mother? I thought you said your parents died. " and there it is.

"No, this is someone who used to be my legal guardian" I bitterly say as I stand up from the park table we had been sitting on and give my friends the 'its time to go' sign and they ask no questions as they stand up slowly.

"Kiah!" the warning is loud and clear and I know what could happen.

"I suggest you don't start anything you won't finish" I say as I continue walking.

"And what makes you think we can't..."

"Do you think all I've been doing is homework, watching TV and hanging out with my friends?" I cut the old woman off. I wait for an answer but the silence tells me they know I've grown powerful.

I've been learning, I've been training as much as I can, I've been consistent, I got my hands on many books, Spell books for beginner witches, conjuring books, had even stolen the devils book of dark arts, Hell! I even got the Bible and went to Bible study. I've read in between the lines and trust me the Bible is a beautiful teacher of controlling your powers and Will.

"Kiah you either come with us or he will come for you" my mother says and my blood runs cold for a second.

"I think we should like give you and your family some space. Think you might have some things to talk about" Niko says and Dom seems to agree. I hadn't noticed they were trembling in fear. I must have let my spiritual pressure out a bit too much and it's intimidating them. I take a deep breath and smile at them.

"No, it's okay, let's go to my place and watch a movie" they look unsure and a piece of me knows they are afraid of me. "Fine, you can leave if you want. I understand"

Dom hugs me and whispered something about loving me then they both left. I turn around and the 4 eyes staring at me have an accomplished look and I'm about to shut them down.

"If the devil wants me then he'll have to come get me" their smug looks drop and anger appears on my grandmother's face.

"You are coming with us right now" taking a step towards me.

"You were always heartless and that will never change but don't assume I'm the same little girl you made cower into a corner" I take 2 steps towards her and her confidence fades immediately. "I am graduating soon, I want no disturbances!"

"We don't care for your graduation" my grandmother spits out.

"I wasn't speaking to you" Silence, then they felt it or rather him. I knew he was here, I'd known it for a while. He had been watching me since Victor made his little visit.

I start walking away and conjure up a portal into my apartment. As soon as I walk in and the portal shuts I'm slammed into the wall and kissed. The sparks hit me like a truck, and for a few seconds I'm dizzy. Getting my strength back I try to push him away, I try my best to ignore how much I've missed him. His touch, his scent, his dominating presence and no no no no. I push at him again and he finally backs away just a little bit.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back anymore, when you spoke directly to me, I just..." He stops and places his face on the crook of my neck and I let him. His hands slide down to my waist, pulling me to him and again I let him. He feels so warm.

"Why won't you leave me alone" I whisper out as a lone tear makes its way down my cheek.

"Because without you existence is pointless. Because I have never cared for love but the moment you were born my very being was under your spell. I am yours in every kind of way, I am an angel only for you and for you I would burn the world".

The Devil is my Angel. And only Mine...
