My Roommate and The Boys

Nick's POV

Though it's been about 5 hours since Ainsley slapped me, it still hurts pretty damn bad! After Raven walked off, I started to think. Do I like Delilah? I mean, she's gorgeous, she smart, she's funny, she's got an amazing taste in music, and so many other things. But I didn't want to be like Max and throw any chance with Raven away for someone else. I felt a tingling sensation on the back of my neck but I just ignored it. I saw August walk towards Raven and I growled, my eye twitching. I scoffed and walked to a hill with a bare cherry tree on top of it. I sat down by the tree and watched as the far coast. I sighed and heard the crunching of footsteps on the snow. "Not now, Max." I said. The footsteps kept coming. "Max I said not no-" I got cut off by a hand gliding across my cheek and the sickening smack of skin on skin. "OW WHAT THE FU-" I was cut off again by an angry Ainsley. "WHERE THE HELL IS MY SISTER?!" She screamed at me. I raised an eyebrow. "How long have I been out here?" She scowled at me. "Oh, I don't know, only like 3 HOURS!!!!" She replied, sarcasm dripping from her words. "Well, I don't know, have you talked to August? He went after her." I turned my head to the now setting sun over the water. Ainsley sighed but she stiffened after a breeze blew through. I snickered. "It's just a breeze, chill." Ainsley mumbled something to herself and grabbed my arm, pulling me up she ran into the hospital towards the men's room. "Ainsley what's going on?!" I asked just before she burst through the door to the bathroom. August was crouched on the floor, Raven asleep in his lap against his chest, and a black figure standing in front of him. "Dad, NO!" Ainsley yelled before Jethro turned into a black smoke and poured into August's mouth. His eyes flickered from chocolate brown to red, and his normally smooth, deep voice was replaced by a raspy one. "So you finally figured it out, huh?" He chuckled again. "That day when your step-mother took my precious girls and your dear brother away from me...I seek revenge...bloodlust courses through my entity...I just figured I would help your sister with her desicion...she doesn't want my help...so I will FORCE IT UPON HER!" Jethro drew a knife from thin air and advanced on me, I backed into the wall as Jethro lunged at me, I awaited the pain, but it never came. I opened my eyes to see...

"Caster?!"
