Darkness

Chapter 37

As the bell rings me and Claire turn back around to our desks and pack our things up.

What a waste of time getting everything out!

Damm teacher.

After stuffing all my stuff in my bag I stand up straight and stretch slightly before walking to the door.

Pushing through everyone I make it to the door as the room starts to clear out.

Just as I'm about to walk out, I turn back around and wave over a nervous and suddenly scared looking Claire.

Dam I think I'm becoming a nice person....

Hahaha! Me? Haha never!

As she's looking around anxiously, as if someone should be here, she sees me wave her over and smiles brightly as she makes her way to me.

"I'm gonna take a wild guess and say your brother was meant to meet you here?" I say as we start making our way to the lunch room.

Sighing Claire nods her head still looking around.

"Yeah...he said he'll take me to lunch" she murmurs disappointed.

Man, what a douche.

"That's alright, you can sit with me, my idiot brother and my witchy best friend Ava" I offer shrugging.

Smiling at me she nods her head slightly eager and happy.

Reaching the lunchroom, lunchroom Claire is still looking around for her brother, and while she doesn't see, she turns back around and trips slightly on her shoe lace, falling straight into my arms.

As cheesy as it might sound, it's not.

Without any much notice, I pull out my arms and stop her from falling mid trip, and don't even notice her bare arms until it's all too late.

Gasping deeply, all I see flashes before I'm being situated in a small dark room.

As my eyes start to adjust to the darkness, i can tell I'm in a room, a girls room actually.

Just as I'm about to move and make a step to explore where I am, I hear a muffled cry before another one comes and my eyes are quickly shifting to a bed placed in the middle of the room surrounded by the girls stuff.

But that's not the thing that's caught my eye....

No...it's the girl underneath a tall muscular guy that is crying her eyes out as he..as he...

Ohh man...why..who is this guy.

Wait is that...no!

Claire?....

As if on instinct I feel a need to help her. running to them, I try as hard as I can to try and do something.

Anything.

Without any notice, the room starts to fade, but the cries are still very there and loud in my ears.

With tears streaming down my face, I'm punching mid air where the guy was and with all my might and start sobbing as I'm getting know where.

I've never cried this hard before...never in my life since...since that night.

Since that night everything changed for me...my innocence was gone.

Within seconds I feel myself being shook as loud voices start to over yell the cries of Claire in my head.

As my eyes turn back to their normal colour, my eyes start adjusting to the light of the day. But not fully because their clouded by the tears pouring down my cheeks.
