Darkness

Chapter 7

"Turn right here" Ava points to a dirt road heading down a forest.

"Please tell me you don't actually live in the forest?" I say with a raised brow.

We were currently now sitting in Ava's car driving to her house. Since she was still at bit shaky from lunch today I offered to drive which she let me. Her car was such a beast, I mean I've always wanted this exact car, it's freaking boss.

"Haha no. I live just around this bend. It's just surrounded by forest is all" Ava says smiling.

Turning at the bend we come to a big gate. Looking at Ava she jumps out of the car and pushes it open with not so much force. I just this place is kinda run down.

"I bloody told them to freaking change the gates...but no, no one listens to me" Ava huffs jumping in.

Driving straight through I park the car right in front of a grey two story house. Wow I guess it's just the gate that's busted around here. Jumping out with Ava I turn to her and see worry etched on her face. Nodding my head at her I tell her it's ok and follow her into the house.

"They'll be home any minute now. Come on, let's go pack" Ava says climbing the stairs.

As we walk past all the rooms expecting Ava to stop at one we walk to the end of the hall and come to a old brown door. Putting a key in the door Ava twists the key and the door opens. Walking in I take in the scene before me.

The wallpaper is peeling off the light pink walls and the fool boards are slightly cracked. Closing the door behind me I inspect the tiny room. There's a small single bed off to the corner with limited blankets and sheets considering, a small bed side table and desk filled with papers and books.

"Can you pack my stuff on the desk darkness" Ava says as she packs all her clothes in a suitcase.

Nodding I grab a box off to the corner and start packing all Ava's books first. 'Fallen' , 'city of bones' , 'hallowed'.

"Quite the collection you have here" I say over my shoulder.

Chuckling Ava looks at them

"Oh them, yeah I had to steal money from Brittany's wallet to buy them" Ava says.

Continuing with the packing Ava has half of it done when the door bursts open. Stacking the last book in the box I turn and see a middle aged woman and man with sandy blonde hair and blue eyes. The seem not to notice me as their eyes are dead set on Ava.

Ohh so these must be Brittany's parents..honestly if I didn't know any better I'd say there freaking siblings.

"What the hell do you think your doing, huh?" the man hisses walking towards Ava.

Cowering away from him Ava looks down and waits for the hit. Before he could lift his hand up, my mouth is open.

"Don't you dare touch her!" I growl pushing Ava behind my back.

Looking at me in shock the man and woman exchange looks before turning back to me with a glare.

"Who are you!" the woman spits.

"Santa Claus bitch" I grin lifting my hand up and punching the guy start in the jaw.

Flying back, the guy hits the wall hard and stumbles to the ground gasping.

Looking at me with anger the woman goes to step forward. Just as I'm about to hit her as well Ava pushes me to the side and clocks her in the eye. Stumbling back the woman grabs her eye and looks up at Ava with surprise and fury.

"How dare you hit me! I'm your leader" the woman yells at her.

Chuckling I turn away from them and continue packing. Ava's got it from here.
