The Pariah

Chapter 20

HOLD ON!!!!
So hey. I know Its been a while since we last spoke. Sorry about that. You guys can talk to me any time. Anyway, the reason I stopped you was because I wanted to talk to you about what's going on.

I don't wanna say, "you've probably been wondering what Fizzy's been doing lately" because lets get real... I'm just someone that writes to help all of you pass time.

Is that all I am to you?!?

Tear.

Oh well.

Okay. So anyway I have been taken away from my wonderful computer and connection with you guys for the moment. Family is staying here a while so they can get back on their feet. You know how it is.

So because of this I've lost access to my computer for a little while.

I promise I will try like the devil to get some sort of update up. Just don't hate me or abandon The Pariah because there haven't been any updates. I haven't forgotten this story. I'm just a little occupied at the moment.

So this Chapter may suck just a little because I had to do it when I was pressed for time.

Sowwy. I luv chu!!!

Chapter Song: Picture Me Broken - Devil On My Shoulder

❗❗❗

Cohart and Taurus are waiting for me when I come outside. They turn to me and smile reassuringly. I don't need it, but I smile back anyway. They lead me to the very center of the yard and Cohart says, "here's what we're gonna do, you stay here and Taurus will bring the marker. I will preform the traditional lines."

"Okay?" I say even though I want to tell him that this won't be necessary. I don't intend on keeping the title as Erin Skies: official Angel. As soon as I repay Taurus, I will try and erase this bond. It's a nuisance to have something such as a bond to this place. I'll have to leave it behind soon anyway.

I fall to my knees because they asked me to and tilt my head up. He bends down in front of me. "Um, there is something else we need to do."

My face falls into a look of annoyance. His tone suggested this may be something I won't enjoy.

His hands raise to defend himself quickly. I can't tell if that's a good thing or not. "It's not a big deal. But... your hair is kind of long and the marker goes down your neck as well. Do you think we could tie it up, or...?"

"Cut it off." I suggest to him and lean back into my legs so that I can hold onto my knees. "I needed a haircut anyway."

"Are you sure?" Taurus asked me, with the silver bowl in his hands. He sets it down on the ground by my legs. He takes a strand of my dark hair and examines it for some reason. I stare at him weirdly. He looks at Cohart. "It's not too thick. I can cut it with my knife."

Cohart nods his head, looking as though he was sending out an order. "Very well. If you're sure."

"I am. But," I reach back with speeding reflexes and grab Taurus's wrist, halting the shiny blade in his fist. "If I'm bald by the end of this, I'll use that knife to chop off your--"

He places his other hand over my mouth with his nose scrunched up in a way that told me he didn't appreciate my threat to his precious parts. He nods his head. "Yes. Okay. I won't." He points his finger toward his head. "How's this length?"

His blonde hair slips below his eyes, bangs in his eyes, I could see the back of his head had hairs poking around his neck and curled around his jaw. The style he rocked was just a shaggy hairdo. Since I don't like showing off my forehead (don't ask me why), the style seemed suitable.
