Rebel At Heart

Chapter 16: Buttercup?!?!?!

(This chapter has some inappropriate content. If you are under fourteen, I strongly suggest you don't continue. If you're a rebel, please proceed. If you strongly believe in God and the fact that Satan should never be worshipped and that shit, please stop reading now. Again, if you're a rebel, please continue. P.S. You can also just skip this chapter and the beginning of 17 if it's too inappropriate and satanic for you. You will miss a hella good time though.)

We pulled into the parking in front of his apartment and headed upstairs. As we passed by Matt's apartment door, I heard chanting.

"I'll be there in a minute."

He nodded, unlocking the door. I knocked on Matt's door and Raini answered.

"What are you doing here?"

"Sh! They're right in the middle of the sacrifice!"

"Sacrifice?"

Raini motioned for me to follow. We walked down the hall and she opened a door.

What. The. Fuck.

I'm standing in a room with an altar made up along the entire length of one wall. A giant picture of a pizza was atop the altar, with candles lit around it. The guys were saying some weird chant as they pulled out a knife. They each took a step forward to the pizza box that was sitting on a table in front of the altar. The pizza was cut to look like a fucking pentagram.

They each cut across their palms, letting the blood drip onto the pizza.

I nearly threw up as they cut the pizza, each grabbing a slice that was smeared with blood, and devouring it.

"I can't."

I turned and left the room. Raini followed and the guys continued the ritual.

"What the fuck was that?"

Raini smiled.

"They were making a sacrifice to the pizza god, just like they do every Friday."

"But it's Saturday."

"They couldn't do it yesterday. It was Halloween."

"Why do they do this exactly?"

The guys came out, hands wrapped with gauze.

"It's part of the satanic cult."

Dammit. They had heard.

"Satanic cult? You're in a satanic cult?"

"Yeah. You want to join?"

"What's it called?"

"Buttercup."

I lost my shit.

"Buttercup?"

"Yes why?"

"That can't be the name! That's too girly and sweet! A satanic cult name would be something like Killer or Slit Throat. Not Buttercup!"

Matt chimed in.

"Hey, Raini is part of it too so you can't complain!"

I turned to her.

"You are?"

She nodded.

"I'm taking a break for a while so I don't harm myself."

"Liar."

I turned to Cas.

"What makes her a liar?"

Trenton smacked Cas on the arm and Matt shot him a glare, harshly whispering to him.

"She won't understand, Castiel. Let it drop."

"Tell me!"

Everyone shot a glare at Cas, trying to keep him silent but my death glare made him spill the beans.

"Raini's pregnant!"

Matt grabbed Cas by the hair.

"I warned you."

He dragged him back down the hall and Trenton sighed.

"You're pregnant!?! You bitch! Why didn't you tell me?! Who's the dad?!"

She looked nervous. Oh shit.

"Who's the dad?"

"Well, it's complicated."

"Explain."

She started to wring her hands, nervous. Trenton came over and sat by her. He whispered something in her ear and she nodded.

"I can do it. I'm fine."

She took a deep, calming breath before she spoke.

"It's a long story but the guys wanted to have a baby and since they're gay, they needed someone to carry the baby."

"Wait, you still didn't answer my question."

"I'm getting to that!"

"Alright!"

"The dad is one of two people. It's either Trenton, or Castiel."

I let out the breath I was holding.

"I thought you were going to say Matthew! I'm so relieved. But I still don't get why in the world you had sex with both guys just to get knocked up."

"So it was a fair chance of dads. I didn't want to make it unfair."

"How far along are you?"

"About four months."

She lifted her shirt up, revealing a small but definite baby bump coming from her stomach. She kissed Trenton's cheek. I saw his hand go behind her back, then she jumped.

"So you're in their little three way now?"

"I guess. It's kind of fun though. I can watch, I can join in, I can do everything, and Matthew has the decency to leave the room when I'm not under the covers!"

I stood up.

"Well, I'll be going now."

Raini stood up, wrapping her arms around me.

"I'll see you soon, sis!"

I shook my head, leaving, going to Blake's apartment.
