Walking On Air

Chapter Two

(Aestia's POV)

A bright light flashed before me, making my head pound. I could see it through my closed eyelids. A strange, chemically smell entered my nose, burning my throat. I coughed and retched, making my head hurt even more.

I tried to say something, but no sound came out. I waited anxiously for about five minutes, trying to see where I was. The bright light slowly faded away, and I drifted into unconsciousness.

Amelia. My dear, precious Amelia. Why have you left me? Why do you make me suffer like this? Why have you left me?!

I awoke, startled to find my cheeks wet. Was I...crying?

Suddenly, sobs racked in my chest, and I cried like a baby. I don't even know why I was sad, I just was. I was like my heart had been ripped out, cut up into pieces, and shown to me. I cried harder.

I felt like there was a hole in my chest. A big, gaping, black hole, that had once been filled with something charming, something I loved.

I slowly cried myself to sleep, not even remembering who I was.

******
As I slowly came to consciousness, I remembered everything. First, the crash. Danielle is fine, Megan can't walk, Lani has broken bones I think, and Will is fine too.

Only one person left....

My Forrest. Everything came flooding back, his giant gash in his stomach, how he asked me to end it for him. He couldn't continue, and the doctors said he wasn't going to make it.

Might as well stop the suffering before it got unbearable.

I didn't cry, like I thought I would. I expected that I would cry like I did last night. But instead, my heart, which had been ripped out, froze. I felt like I was going insane. My head felt like it was going to explode, and I could hardly breathe. I started hyperventilating, breathing in and out faster than I knew I could. I laid there in the dark, for possibly hours, thinking, wishing, and hoping.

Hoping with all of my heart that I was dreaming.

******
I was all dressed up for the funeral. His funeral. I didn't want to go. I felt like if I went, it would only confirm the fact that he was really, actually dead.

And I didn't want to believe that.

I forced my body off of my comfy, warm, amazing bed and out the door. Right now they were keeping me hospitalized, but they let me leave today. I walked to my new car, which someone had given me for a get well gift. I really appreciated it, but I hadn't gotten around to thanking them yet.

I did not want to walk. It would give me more time to think, and right now, thinking was one of my worst enemies.

I turned the corner into the church parking lot, and stopped the car. Pulling the keys out, I locked the door and walked up to the church doors.

Sighing, I grudgingly walked in. I walked to the front row, where His family was sitting, and sat down next to his sister, who had been really trying to get on my good side since He died.

She probably just needed a friend. I felt bad, because I was incapable of being a good friend at the moment.

I shook hands with the priest, and sat down. I guess I was late, because Noelani and Will started to leave.

Candace and Opal.

When I saw them leave, something jerked inside me. I suddenly had no control over myself, and I followed them, shaking with anger.

Kill them. NOW! They took Amelia! They took her! They took her from me!

Noelani frantically created a bubble around her and Will, and I screamed with anger.

"Amelia!" I screamed. Someone, no, multiple people grabbed me and took me away. "NO! Stop! Amelia! Ame-"

I felt a sharp pain in my arm. I looked around. "What-", and I fell into unconsciousness.

******
Are you finally awake? Yes, get up!

I rubbed my head. Ughhhh, I have a headache.

Yes, that's what happens when you scream too much. Now listen.

Who are you? Why are you in my head?!

Oh my god, I'm going insane.

No you're not. Everyone has them. Now be quiet and listen.

Where do I start?

What's your name?

Damien. Let's start with this. I'm freaking mad. Can you tell me why?

Umm...I think I know the answer, but I really really don't want to say it.

Bingo. I'm mad because of Amelia. Who's Amelia, you ask?

I gulped.

A girl you hate?

I quaked in anger and sadness, unwillingly. It was like I was possessed!

No. I..I loved Amelia with all my heart. I loved her, and she was ripped out of my arms. She was destroyed, and now, I'm seething with anger and revenge. So, now can you guess who Amelia was?

"Forrest." I whispered.

There you go. Now, you know your supposed best friend, Noelani?

Now I was confused. Supposed?

That's right. She's a dirty, rotten liar who deserves to die.

"Hey!" I exclaimed, accidentally out loud. "She is my best friend in the whole wide world. I would do anything for. Anything. You have no idea how much she means to me!"

But I do. Don't you understand? I am you. I know you. I know all your thoughts, and everything about you. And guess what. I know your true feelings about Noelani.

What feelings? You mean the ones where I love her? The ones where she is my everything?

Tsk tsk tsk. Nope. What about the burning hatred, the seething anger at her?

I-I don't have any feeling like that about her. Just shut up! You're turning me against her!

But I could feel it. It was slowly rising up, the anger, the hatred, the burning passion. I didn't want to hate Noelani. She was my sister!

But it was definitely there.

Can you feel it now? Are you aware?

Now. What if I told you that she was the reason of Forrests death.

My chest exploded with anger and passion, and I felt my jaw harden.

I was coming for her, so she better watch out.
