His blood seeped through my fingers, dark as the ever growing night. Drop by drop it fell to the ground staining the leaves red. It hypnotising , my salty tears mixing with the pool of crimson.

Someone was calling out to me, but all i could hear was white noise i could feel someone pulling me, but i was paralysed, still as a victim of Medusa.

My nightmares are coming reality. I act like i know what i know what i'm doing. For a time i thought so too. But i don't. I never have done. In truth i'm terrified, i'm always terrified.

I wish someone had told me i was in the good old day's when i was in them. I wish i knew what i signed up for, before signing. I thought the world was changing around me but in fact i was the one changing it. I guess we all face the same hell, just different demons...

I drew a breath and realised my arrow. It sliced straight through the centre, as always. I think I'm getting pretty good at this.

A second later another arrow joined it dead centre.
"Sh*t Grayson! Do you want to f*cking kill me!"
"Alia! Language! Theres little kids in the room" Grayson replies, indicating over his shoulder at my other best friend Marcel whilst putting down his crossbow.

"Hey!"Marcel says, a look of mock hurt on his face. Grayson smirks at Marcel then turns back to me.
"Fine! Grayson do you want to Fudging kill me! Happy?"
"Very"

"Sorry to break up this...thing you've got going here, but I've got people to see and places to be" Marcel interrupts while strutting to the exit.

I put down my bow and Grayson grabs me by the shoulders, dragging me towards the door.
"Do we have to go?"
"Alia. Its just one night its not like the worlds going to end."
"It might! Is She going to be there?"
"She has name, its Casey and of course she is going to be there, shes my girlfriend.'
"So...what were you saying about the world ending?"
"Alia just get in the F*cking car."
"Grayson! Language!"

Marcel sticks his head out the window and shouts "Guys, stop flirting and get in."

As we rounded the corner you could hear the music blasting out. It was some crappy song about...milkshakes?Of course Marcel was singing along. Typical! I caught sight of Cole and the witch herself ,Casey. This is going to be fun. Note the sarcasm.

As soon as we pulled up and got out of the car, Casey pulled Grayson into a snog fest. Disgusting.
"Guys keep it PG!" Marcel gags while me and Cole roll our eyes.

Casey pulls away and smirks in my direction as i stick out my tongue.
Cole nudges me in the side. "Never knew you were a 3 year old" he says with a devilish grin. I drag him down by his collar until our lips are centre metres away.
"shut up Cole"

I teasingly push him away, laughing. As i do so, i see Grayson clench his jaw and scowl at Cole. Its going to be a long night!
