12 Roses 12 Deaths (EDITING)

Chapter 39

Paige's POV
*flashback*3 years earlier*
I get up from from the hard blue class chair, I grab my stuff and get ready to run out the front door and leave class. College was never really what I wanted to do but it's something my parents wanted for me, so I got stuck here. I walk out the classroom door to but I stop when a guy with deep sea green eyes is staring down at me.
" Can I help you?"" I ask my voice shaky.
He grins and a chill goes down my spine, then his grin drops to a faint smile and I finally realize how good looking he is.
" Yea, come to a party with me, tonight at 8."
He says in a calm voice.
" I don't know you." I say as I feel my hands getting shaky.
" My names Derek, sorry if I scared you, your just so beautiful I thought I would give it a shot." He says as he faintly laughs.
" Oh, um, thank you, I guess." I can feel my face turning red and I just want to run.
" So, will you come?" He asks.
" Su... Sure." I say.
_______________________________
I snap back to reality and see that this isn't a dream. My eyes go wide as I see the blood flowing into a bigger puddle around Derek's head. No. No. No! No!
" Derek! No! I yell crawling towards his lifeless body. I grab his head and turn it to face me. Why! I can feel the tears rushing down my face and I skin feels colder.
" Derek... Why. I love you... Please don't leave me yet." I pull my head down to lay on his chest hoping to feel his heart beating against my ear like it always did. I tighten my grip on his shirt when I don't feel the heart beating.
" Paige, I.. I think you should go upstairs." I hear Victor say in a low sorrowful voice.
" No, I..don't..want..to leave... him!" I manage to say through tears. Why did this have to happen. I keep on letting everything out. I no longer care, I want to die. I don't want to be in this horrid game of life or death, this place took all the life out of me. I feel two hands wrap around my waist trying to pull me away from Derek.
" no! Let go of me! Let go! I want to be with him let me go!" I yell punching and kicking trying to get myself out of this persons arms.
I give up when they have dragged me up the stairs. They finally drop me in the hall way and I look up to see who it is, Matt.
" listen to me Paige, you need to calm down. Go to your room and get some rest and don't leave that room no mater what. I'll stay here until I see you go into your room." He says in a harsh tone.
I get off the floor and run into Derek's room, I don't want to go into my room i just want to be away from everything. I shut and lock the door behind me and drop to the ground. The tears won't stop coming out and I wish they could. I wish I could be strong for him. I lift my head up a bit and notice something black catch my eye. I get up from the floor and walk towards his dresser. When I get to his rose it has already lost more than half of its pedals. That rose. That rose held his life. A rose holds all of our lives. A rose holds my life....
I run out of the room and to mine I can feel the tears rolling down my face again. I don't know what it is that I'm feeling. Anger, sorrow, weak, I no longer know. I grab a blue crested vase on my dresser and I throw it against the wall with all my rage and emotion. Before I know it I'm kicking and grabbing everything in my reach destroying the bit of dignity I had left. I stop when I look at the rose on my bed. If it holds my life, I don't want it! I don't want it! I grab the rose and I tear everything possible off of it I break the stem in half while screams and tears are mixed through my emotions. I didn't even realize how loud I was screaming until Gloria and Diana run into the room. They stand there doing nothing for a brief second. Then they both come towards me and hold me close. I don't want this anymore. I just want to let everything go and breath peaceful air.
