Andor's Pov

Dec leads me down a long hallway and into a freezing cold room. "Listen this is what happened when Dianite's blood clashed with the demon blood that was injected into Maylee." He says before pulling a white sheet off a small sized box.

My jaw drops. The child has Maylee's fire red hair but it's blood red eyes....it gets worse.

It doesn't have fingers just long claws that are twisted in unnatural looking angles.

Dec let's out a sigh and pulls the sheet back over the child's casket like box. He tenses when we hear Maylee let out a sob.

We walk out silently. What do I say? Maylee just continues to sob uncontrollably when we enter.

"I'm sorry Maylee. I should've been here for you." She doesn't answer which signals that she's upset with me.

"W-where's M-ot." She cries. "He and Jordan went to umm-"

"He's drinking again isn't he." She whispers a few more tears escaping from Maylee's eyes.

Mot's Pov

Jordan and I go round after round at the bar. He slowly makes his way closer to me.

Once he's close enough to kiss me I move away. "Cooommmmeee onn!" Jordan pouts and tries to kiss me again.

"Foooorrrggeeeet aaaabout himm." Screw it. I press my lips to Jordan's roughly.

"Leeettts goo." He slurs once we part. Jordan grabs my hand and leads me towards the side of the bars I always avoided.

The loud music only makes me feel worse but Jordan seems to be having a blast. "Daaannncee M-*hiccup* Mot!" I give I'm because it's Jordan and I can't say no.

Jordan sways his hips to the beat of the music and allows me to wrap my arms around him.

I know I'm setting myself up for heartbreak when he remembers none of this, but may as well enjoy it while it lasts.

I plant a kiss on Jordan's neck causing him to moan slightly. I run my hands down Jordan's chest and stop just above his waistline. I move along with Jordan, earning a giggle from him every time I made a move on my own.

"Yoouuu're guud att thees!" He laughs. All of a sudden Jordan pulls away from me. My nerves slowly disappear when I realize he's just walking me outside.

He leans against the brick wall in such an attractive way it's impossible not to look at him.

After seeing too many girls and guys checking out Jordan I decide to claim him. That way no one knows to fuck with him.

I place my hand on either side of Jordan's head and he smiles. "Gonna kiss me yet?" He asks and of course I kiss him.

It begins to get heated quickly which scares me a bit. Jordan bites my bottom lip when I try and pull away.

"Let's call it a night." I mumble after another passionate kiss. "I don't wanna go home." Jordan's eyes water up which breaks my heart.

"If you love me you won't make me go back." Jordan whispers tears spilling from his eyes. I wipe his tears away and hold his hand as we walk back towards the castle.

Andor's Pov

"She looks a lot like D-"

"Don't." Maylee quickly interrupts. "You can't just act like he doesn't exist." I protest.

Maylee hands Faylinn back to the nurse to put her in the crib. "You should go back home. Send Mot back." She suggests.

"Why can't we just be friends again?" I ask, but she doesn't answer. "If he's at the castle I'll send him here."

Time Skip

When I enter I hear both Mot and Jordan screaming to the lyrics to what must he their favorite song.

"MY LEGS ARE DANGLING OFF THE EDGE, THE BOTTOM OF THE BOTTLE IS MY ONLY FRIEND! I THINK I SLIT MY WRIST AGAIN AND I'M GONE, GONE, GONE, GONE!" Jordan sings along.

"MY LEGS ARE DANGLING OFF THE EDGE A STOMACH FULL OF PILLS DIDN'T WORK AGAIN!" Mot sings and I hear Jordan giggle.

"I PUT A BULLET IN MY HEAD AND I'M GONE, GONE, GONE, GONE!" They both sing.

I creep a little bit further into the room, hoping to not get noticed.

"Gone too far yeah I'm gone again. It's gone too long tell you how it ends. I'm sittin' on the edge with my two best friends. One a bottle of pills and ones a bottle of gin.

I'm 20 stories up yeah up at the top. I polished off this bottle now it's pushing me off. Asphalt for me has never looked so soft.

I bet my mama found my letter now she's callin' the cops. I gotta take this opportunity before I miss it. Cuz now I hear the sirens and they're off I'm the distance!

Believe me when I tell that I've been persistent. Cuz I'm more scarred, more scarred than my wrist is!

I've been tryin' too long with to dull of a knife. But tonight I made sure that I sharpened it twice!

I never bought a suit before in my life. But when you go to meet god you know wanna look nice!" Jordan can rap! Like I mean....damn!

Mot repeats the chorus along with Jordan. Jordan only raps bits and pieces of the next verse.

"You're only gettin' older watch a young man die!" The two slowly inch closer to each other as the song plays on. They're drunk and I have to remember that.

"You don't know what happened to that kid you raised." Jordan isn't just singing anymore he's singing to Mot.

"What happened to the father who swore he'd stay! I didn't know Cuz you didn't say. Mama feels quilt yeah mama feels pain." Tears slowly start falling from my eyes.

"When you were young you ever thought you'd die. Found out you could but you were scared to try! You looked in the mirror and said goodbye! Climbed to the roof to see if you could fly!" The two just kind of stare at each other as the song repeats itself one last time.

Mot leans in and I go into panic mode. "Maylee wants to see you!" I blurt and Jordan pulls away slightly.

"I'll see you tomorrow." Mot whispers before leaving. I hope he goes back to the hospital and not back to the bar.

Jordan doesn't turn to face me just stares where Mot had once been. I walk over and hug him from behind.

"I love you." I say softly. "Come on let's get you to bed."

Jordan holds my hand as I walk him to our room. I help him change into pajamas not because he needs the help but because I want to.

"Are you mad at me?" Jordan asks as I pull the covers over him. "No love." Jordan blushes which causes me to.

"Will you stay with me?" With that I climb into bed next to Jordan and pull him close to me. Within seconds we're both fast asleep.
