Come

Psalm 16: Just as the Lord forgave you



Vlad:

I thought the last time Ikuto was in Elsa's bed was the loudest time she had screamed. I was wrong.

Cause that day I had woken up to a loud shriek, followed up a slap.

Well, maybe it just sounded loud because the place where we were staying was a big run connected to little mini rooms. Nevertheless, I ran in the direction of the scream, which was Elsa's room. Anubis and Reiji were already there, but as I came in, Ikuto was on her bed, laughing as Elsa was girlishly punching his back and pouting.

Well this looked familiar.

"I'm sorry Elsa! I swear that I turned into a cat before I slept on your stomach! I don't know how I turned back." Ikuto was wearing the same tux he wore last night.

"You're heavy! And don't just be in my bed like that!" Elsa was in the same dress from last night.

"Ah, now get ready." Neutron came into the room with us. Thankfully she was in her usual form. "The competition starts in two or three hours."

And so we did. I was the first one to finish getting ready. As I came out of my room, Neutron was waiting for me. She had a slightly angry face on, and her arms were on her hips.

"Vlad, we need to talk."

"Err, I remember the last time my mom said that to my dad. It didn't end well."

She ignored that. "I read the Bible. The one you gave me."

I blinked, smiling. "Really? That's great!"

"... And there was this one verse... In Colossians I believe. You see, I was reading it to find out why you would say such a thing, but instead, I found something about forgiveness. That we should forgive because the Lord forgave us."

"Yeah, okay and?"

"If the Lord, a perfect being, forgives you, then I will too. After all, you might've not have known what you did, and how it hurt me. You see, I'm happy for you, and I do want you to go home if you could. But when you said it so carelessly, I thought that you didn't care about me, and that you were glad to leave me."

I blinked. Hard. Oops, I didn't release that it was that that she was mad at. "Neutron, I'm not the type of guy to do that; believe me when I say that. If I'm able to go home, you are always welcome to come with me. If you choose not to... I'll be sad but I'll understand because it's what you want."

Her mouth opened, then smiled. "I don't mind trying new things if it's with the one I love." She can't closer and hugged me.

I hugged her back, and my affection for her grew. To offer to give up her old life just for me. Such sacrifice.

And I kissed her. I guess I was falling in love with her more and more every day.

Someone coughed. It was Ikuto, dressed in his usual attire. "Err, Neutron. Someone is at the door asking for the manager."

She left, with a slight blush on her cheeks that was matching mine. Oops. And Elsa came in from another room. She was dressed in jeans and a shirt that said, "Jesus loves you."

I looked at Ikuto. He was looking at my sister; a longing gaze, but nevertheless at her. But he shook his head and looked away.

Wait a minute.

I tried my magic.  Ikuto. He looked at me. Are you in love with my sister?

He coughed, but his blush was evidence enough. You know, I could try to hook you two up together.

Don't. He looked sad as he thought that. Reiji likes her too. She deserves a human who will cherish her and make her laugh rather than a beast who's made her hurt.

I didn't say anything. He was being really hard on himself; as far as I knew, sis deserved anybody she liked and was a nice person.

But if that's what he thinks, then it's his choice.

Elsa

"Let's welcome our next division, Come and the Andriodz!"

We were up on stage, about to perform. We were on one stage, the Andriodz on another. I was a little nervous, but I knew that as long as I performed my best, I was going to do fine.

"Now, please welcome the judge, Ezekiel!"

To my surprise, a woman came to the front. I was mostly surprised that in the future, Ezekiel was a girl's name.

Cr*p.

What's the matter Reiji?

Ezekiel's known in the music world for being a really tough judge. She is really critical.

Don't worry, we've got this.

"There will be four rounds. First is a mixture of songs, ones that have been created by other bands. The first band to perform will be.... Come!"

Okay, here goes nothing.

But suddenly, I collapsed. I didn't faint, more like I couldn't move my limbs. "Elsa!" Ikuto ran to me.

But all I could pay attention to was the triumphant face of the singer of the Andriodz as he thought, I'm glad that we were able to succeed in cheating.

Cliffhanger! Unfortunately, we'll have to wait a little while to see what will happen because the next chapter is a Jeremiah one, Daniel. Will Come get disqualified? Stay tuned ;-)

Anyway, I was looking at past chapters, and I saw that part of them had been erased. (Why Wattpad??!!!) Anyway, because of the fact that I'm busy writing and can't rewrite them, what questions do you have that might've out might've not been explained in the deleted parts?

Anyway, I don't know when I'll update next, for school is driving me crazy, I have guard practice, and Daniel is a long one. I don't want to write it, but there's very important info that you have to know.

Anyway, to get you excited, let's just say that our Jeremiah/Luke/Job meets his son. ;-)

... Aanndd that's it! See you later!
