The "Bloody" Secret [on hold]

Chapter 5

Sorry for updating late... Here is a long chapter to make it up to you!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Azalea was dragging me into every shop which was infront of us. She knew someting was up because I had a sad look on my face for the whole day.

"What's up?" Azalea asked with a knowing look. I was petrified that she might actually know what really was wrong.

"Nothing, I am fine," hoping that she won't ask anymore questions.

"Desiree, I can tell something is up, now spill it!"

"Okay, okay. I keep dreaming of a guy I met at the local park."

"What guy? What is his name? and what are your dreams about? Tell me everything!" Azalea responded furiously.

"I met him at the local when his dog came running up to me. His name is Dallas and my dreams keep showing him as a vampire as well as us kissing...," I mumbled the last bit.

Now Azalea's face was red and had a look of disgrace. She started to turn white when I said his name, 'Dallas.' I think they might have had some history together as a couple. Azalea started to mumble words under her breath angrily. I was beggining to get frightened because she had just snapped the heal off of her brand new versace heels and threw them into a shop window. An alarm started to go off.

She pulled my arm and dragged me as she was running. As I took a glimps behind me, I now knew why... the police was chasing her...US!

Distracted by the view infront of me I feel that the old Azalea is back. She has dragged me all the way to the skatepark.

But so was Dallas.

Did Dallas direct Azalea here?

"What was that about Azalea?" I asked.

"Nothing!" She muttered in total disgrace.

This time I pulled her hand and dragged her to the seat at the skatepark. I sat her down and she let out a deep breath. Then her eyes met mine.

"What's the matter? When I said the name Dallas it looked like you'd seen a ghost," her face turned white and she fainted.

"Azalea, Azalea...please wake up. Please!" She fainted because I said Dallas' name, what ever did happen between those two?

A tear shrode down my rosy cheeks and then dropped onto Dallas' head.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing Dallas was hovering over Azalea and was performing mouth-to-mouth.

I could feel my heart breaking from the sight.

Her eyelashed started to flutter as she was starting to regain her vision and at that moment Dallas dissapeared... just like that...into thin air.

"Desiree..uh...what happened?" Azalea's words spoken with a light tone.

"Nothing, I think that we should go get you an ice-cream from the famous 'Sweets From Heaven' and I'll drop you off home, you need to rest up."

"Yummy, I love ice-cream," She responded in a child-like voice. Hopefully she wasn't loopy and giggly for too long.

As we were on the way to Sweets From Heaven Azalea kept letting out high-pitched squeals with repetitive gasps and titters. She was acting like a mewl.

Maybe it was Dallas that did something to her while she was unconscious. When I get my hands on him he is dead!

"Oh hello Desiree, I didn't see you there, would you like to stay for dinner?" Azalea's mother asked. 

"No it’s fine Mrs Starr; I need to start heading home."

 "Would you like me to drive you?" Mrs Starr gave off a caring mother’s vibe.

"Honestly, I need a little fresh air; I think I can manage, Thanks anyway!"

 The moon was dim and as the minutes passed I grew weary. I watched as the clouds started over lapping the moon creating total darkness. I held a tighter grip on my phone and used its light to guide me through to the alley way that leads to my house. I could smell the belongings of the dumpsters; The strong smell of rotten eggs, curdled milk and the distinguished smell of mouldy cheese was enough to put me off eating for a while. 

The walls of the alley were contaminated in a suspicious liquid. I turned the light from my phone towards the alley walls.

My phone fell with big thud and I fainted in shock from what covered the walls.

~ AZALEA'S POV ~

So there we were, outside my house, waiting for my mum to open the door. As we were waiting I tried to question Desiree further about what happened earlier on today. She was as stubborn as a one-eyed mule.

I guess it was a mystery.

A womens voice had awoken me from my deep thoughts.

It was mummy!

I ran and hugged her as tight as I could and ran stright to my room, forgeting all about Desiree.

"I don't know what has gotten into her," Desiree said to Mrs Star before she started to question her about anything and everything.

"Oh hello Desiree, I didn't see you there, would you like to stay for dinner?"

"No it’s fine Mrs Starr; I need to start heading home." I heard Desiree say in a tone that made her sound like she was excited to leave.

Had I done something wrong today that made her hate me and my mother?

Is that why she won't tell me the history of the afternoon?

Or did I accidentally spill our family secret makeing her think that we are a bunch of creeps?

If she knows our secret then she knows about my family history involving Dallas!

The secret that has been covered up for more than a thousand years and I just let it out!

This can't be happening!

Mum was right, Dad was also right.

I was too younge to know the secret I should have listened.

For my 12th birthday I should have bought a new wardrobe full of clothes instead of asking to know the stupid secret as a birthday present.

My parents trusted me, Dallas trusted me and so did my...my....my...Sister...
