Destroyed

Chapter 4: Why Me?!

After last night we drove home in complete and utter silence, not the good kind either. Whenever she had to see me do something like that she let me to my own devices, I mean it's not like I love doing that, but I have to because not only is it my fault he went after him but also that he's here on earth to cause others pain. I hate that. I have to take responsibility for letting him loose. But, enough of that train of thought. "Hey, Serene?" Della stated softly,
"Yea"
"We're home."
And she was right, we were. I got out of the car and hiked up all the stairs with Della in tow. I got my keys out of my back pocket of my bloody black pants. 'Well, at least I didn't ruin my pants' I laughed bitterly at that and Del gave me a 'What the hell' look as I opened the door and walked in. "Something funny, Serene?"
"No"
She gave me the death glare then stalked off to her room. We live in a five story apartment building, and we lived on the fourth floor. There were two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a hangout area or a I like to call it the Pit. I call it that because there is crap all over the place. But anyway, I shuffled over to my black bedroom door, Del got confused as to which was hers and mine so I painted mine black and hers a bright lavender, I entered and shut and locked the door. My bedroom, unlike the Pit, is actually quite clean. In the corner is my bed, which is a regular size with black bedding, then across from my bed is my desk with three drawers, that one held some of my clothes then the other two random things and it had a picture board  above it then next to that are two doors, one to my bathroom the other to my small closet. I walked over to my closet got out a big black shirt and my black draw string pants then over to my other clothes drawer and got black underwear out, then off to my bathroom I went to get the smell of blood and bad memories off me. I locked my bathroom door, stripped, then got in the shower. I stood under the head and let all the blood and grit come off and then took my shampoo and rubbed it in, then washed it out while thinking the last time I put Del through this.

Four Years Before

Del was so happy to be almost done high school, which was in two months, and for it to be the weekend. After 7 period she came bouncing up to me and screamed "GUESS WHAT SERENE!!"
"What? And you don't need to yell"
"YES I DO. Whatever, anyway there's this party at Court Collins tonight and I was wondering if you could go with me?"
"No"
"Yes"
"Hell no"
"Hell yea"
"Hell no"
"Hell yea"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Ye-"
"You say that one more time and I will kill you"
She whacked my arm then declared "You're going or I'm stuck at home with my mother."
It might not sound bad but her mom hate her so much because when she was pregnant with her and when her dad found out he ran ever since then her mother has become a drunkard and depressed, so Del has to live with her and her mother yells and screams terrible things at her. So being the good little bad angel I am I soon agreed to go, anyway it been too long since I last got wasted.
Later that night she came over to my place and was wearing a low cut blood red dress and nude colored 6inch heels ready to go, while I opted for black jeans, a 'Not Moose' graphic shirt, a leather jacket and my good ole combats. We walked out, well I did she pranced, and jumped into her buggy. Del pulled out and raced out of the lot and to Collins.
"You ready to get wasted my friend?" Del questioned.
"I am, but you're not"
"What no, I not being the DD tonight"
"If you drink to much and die of liver cancer I will be pissed, so 4 drinks for you"
"Buzz kill"
"Crazy ass"
"Scary ass"
By the time we were done arguing we were there. I stalked out of the car and into the house after avoiding all the drunks in the front yard and Del was running after me. "Hey I'm going to get a drink, okay"
"Of course"
After that I lost her, I walked around for a while then got seriously wasted. But then I noticed I was getting a headache, which means he's nearby. I stumbled around looking for my friend, and found her smoking. She looked over at me quizzically,
"Hey, Serene what's wrong?"
"We h-have t-to go!!!" But it sounded like 'War haven go'
"Shit what'd you say?"
By then I was completely sober and he was there. Right behind me, Del noticed this first.
"Dude wha-"
He cut off her voice then knocked her out. I spun around quickly and stated
"What are you doing here exactly Jayson?"
"Looking for you love"
"As much as I appreciate that, but screw off"
He got a little agitated and snarled "No. Sorry I can't"
Then I socked him in the face than I grabbed Del and tried to run. Well, key word is tried because he grabbed the back of my jacket and pulled me to himself. Then growled "Don't think so love"
Then snapped my neck.

When I woke up the whole house was on fire, and I was chocking on smoke  and Della  was above me screaming something. I quickly realized what was happening and ripped myself off of the floor grabbed Della and jumped out the window. We quickly ran to the car and I started shaking her because she was in hysterics.
"Del, Del, dammit. DELLA snap the hell out of it or give me the keys!"
She calmed down and gave me the keys to the car. I unlocked the door and shoved her in then I quickly got in started and shot out of there like the devil was after me. By the time we were in my loft Del was out cold and I soon was too.

       Back To The Present

I got out the shower then got my black towel dried off and dressed in my nightly clothing, unlocked the door and dove into my bed and fell into a sleep stocked with nightmares.
