Pathetic

The Amulet Girl~25

CHAPTER 25!!

 At this very moment, my favorite power is my photo graphic memory. I've memorized every bit of information ever published about me along with my school books. Through my studies I've found that somewhere out there there is an amulet that can make a human as strong as the average demon. This human, however, is meant to be female and she is to be unaware of the abilities she posses. She is meant to be the one to take down the demon who ignores my commands and kills the innocent. So, for the last two days I've been trying to track down the amulet.

My thoughts were brought back to the agonizingly boring class as the lunch bell rang. I took off to my locker throwing my stuff in and pulled out my book bag of supplies. Kobal and Anser appeared moments later and we walked together wordlessly to the principal's office. The principal himself was at an all day meeting and the Secretary was showing some new student around. Early his morning we set up our prank cameras to prepare for this very moment.

I began pulling out the supplies the moment the door shut. We began by gluing everything in it's place and then covered everything in wrapping paper. To finish everything out we took plastic cups and stapled them together before filling them with water. We had to do it in pieces but it was well worth it. We finished just seconds before the bell, completely missing lunch, but it honestly didn't matter. We'd get to see the outcome tomorrow.

The day drug on like crazy after that leading up until this very moment in my final class. There was a knock on the door interrupting the English teacher mid-sentence. When the door opened short, black haired human girl walked in. What caught my eye was the necklace around her neck. She, was in fact, the keeper of the Amulet. What type of coincidence could this be, for the amulet to appear just as I'm searching for it?
She whispered to the teacher who then turned to everyone with a smile, "Class this is our new student Dyillan Tyler. Dyillan, you can sit in the back by Jezebeth. Jezzie, raise your hand please."

My hand went up as a smile developed my face. This is the girl that can make everything easy for me and every innocent person on earth. She took her seat and smiled in return."I'm Jezzie."

She nodded and replied, "Dyillan."

My smile vanished quickly though when I saw the tattoo on her wrist. 'It's more than it seems, really it is. The scar on my wrist is from my own kind of kiss. One that doen't come from the lips, yet from a blade that shows me pain while I'm living in vain."

There were so many words spanning her small right arm covering small pink scars. Those words and the image of the slashes had embedded its way into my photographic memory.  Hours have passed and my heart aches. Those scars are so familiar and similar to those that I saw on Kaitie's wrist just months before she became happy again.

Minor walked into our room and raised one eyebrow at my messy stressed state. "I'm an emotional wreck."

He smiled and the spoke, "what's the date, Angel?"

Usually that one comment would make sense and make things better but I gasped. I ran to the calendar. I've been to damn busy to even notice. All I could say to Minor was, "two weeks ago." I watched his face pale as did mine.

Everything around me went blank. Not that I fainted or anything, I just couldn't focus on anything. A ringing began in my ears as Minor and I headed to the truck. My throat was clogged as we parked at the pharmacy.  "Angel, do you want me just to go in or do you want to come too?"

"I kinda just don't want to move." he kissed me on the lips before getting out of the car.

Minor was back within moments with four different types of pregnancy tests. I sat in the middle of the bench seat grasping his hand tightly.

As we made it back to the house I went to our in suit bathroom before having to wait another couple dreadful minutes. As we waited for the results I turned to Minor. "I'm scared Minor, I'm scared for this girl named Dyillan, and for the innocent. I'm scared for us and this baby.."

He cut me off there, "Angel, we don't even know for sure yet. You've had a lot of stress it could be that holding it back."

I shrugged, "I have a weird feeling it's more than that." At that moment the timer I set on my phone went of and I began flipping over the test sticks one by one. Each one making my heart beat harder and harder against my chest.

Each and every plus sign stared back at me. "What the hell do we do now?" I turned towards the speaker of the question who actually had a smile on his face.

"You better not have done this purposely mister."

"I didn't, Angel, chill. I'm just not going to be sad about it. That's our kid in there."

I couldn't help but bust out laughing as he started to tickle my belly. "Since your so happy about it you can tell my dad."

In seconds his smile vanished and he mumbled and, "oh shit."

"Yeah, baby, that's what I thought."

Another voice was at my door seconds after. "Tell me what?" I didn't have to say anything though as he saw the four pregnancy tests sitting on the bed. He formed and 'O' shape with his mouth but said nothing more.

Once again I heard Minor mumble under his breath but I'm sure my dad heard it too. "Well that was easy."

 Yeah, so, maybe it wasn't so easy. I realized it when my dad tensed before stiffly saying, "Dinning room now." The three of us now sit in the desired destination while no one will make eye contact. I know he's disappointed in us.

"I'm sorry dad." The  damn tension made me break my rule for myself once again.

"Me too, Jezebeth, me too," he paused thinking things over, "I'm very disappointed in the both of you, but that doesn't make me love the three of you any less." When he said three he looked at my belly and smiled telling me he'll be just as proud someday as he is disappointed. "Tomorrow we will take you to the doctors and get everything checked out; tonight, though, we celebrate my beautiful grandbaby to be" My mouth dropped open until my jaw hit the table. "What?"

"No arguments here."I innocently held up my hands and walked out still shocked by how quickly he changed. I ran out of there before he could even consider changing his mind.

After showering and getting dressed in my red and black flowered dress with natural looking makeup. We all met at me fathers black Hummer that my father had started and locked the doors of. "Dadddddy, please please please please let us in." I gave him my best puppy dog face i could muster. I watched his face soften before he leaned over and unlocked my door only. Minor stood outside attempting the puppydog face on dad too but it most definitely wasn't working. I swear, he was trying so hard he looked constipated. 

We arrived at the restaurant fourty five minutes later with Minor whining in the back seat about how his face in no way looked like he was constipated.The restaurant, The Grand Intimate, was located in the city just outside of our small town. The building was beautiful, it almost reminds you of a medieval castle. Dad grudgingly handed his keys along with $10 over to the valet before walking towards the grand glass and oak french style door.

I watched with amazement as me father lifted Minor bridal style and looked down at him, "He who is paying for this meal shouldn't have to walk and shall be carried like a princess."

Minor began to wiggle out of my fathers arms the moment he realized my father said he'd be paying. Once his feet were safely on the ground Minor looked up at my dad. "No way in hell am I paying. I'm broke mister." 

"You aren't broke, I'm smarter than you look Minor. You impregnated my daughter then you impregnate me with food."
