Chapter Fourteen

Heaven was entirely different to what I had been brought up believing it was like. Inside was a large village which looked in pristine condition. The ground was a white rocked floor which led to all individual homes and onwards to other buildings in the distance. Children ran past us happily having a laugh in their own little worlds. Loren fixed his hand on my shoulder making me look to him but his gaze was looking ahead but his eyes were cold and filled with emotion I couldn’t put a name to.

“Loren…” I asked which made his head snap in my direction with a big smile now plastered on his face. “Quite different from what was expected right?” he asked and I nodded in agreement. I didn’t know what I was expecting. People sitting on clouds doing nothing all day?

“I have a brief idea where he is, let’s go” Loren cut through my thoughts as he started walking off forwards through the village. I felt my heart begin to thump hard knowing we were going to see Reuben. I hope he wasn’t upset or lonely just sticking to himself as he did back then- he avoided his family like the plague clinging to me at any chance he had but I only rejected him only offering up a quick fuck to please myself. “Selfish bastard” I whispered under my breath as I followed Loren down the spiral pathway.

The odd person here and there stopped what they were doing to stare as we walked past; our appearances clearly showing that we shouldn’t be here. I noticed a little girl cling to her mother which made my stomach tighten as all I wanted to call out to her was for her not to be afraid of me.  “In heaven there are no secrets- your true self is on display” Loren stated as he continued to walk not even sparing me a glance. Taking into note what he said but not quite understanding we trekked on for a further couple of minutes before he stopped. I looked in front of us to a tent which was pitched in front of us.  “What…” I begin to ask before Loren cocked his head in amusement at my confusion and walked into it disappearing from sight. With a grumble I once followed behind not liking the unfamiliar territory.

Half expecting a small room with Reuben’s small-frame huddled around a fire it shocked me more than anything to walk out to feel sand hugging at my feet. I looked around me to see we were now on a large beach with crystal blue waters drifting until the horizon. I only received a couple of seconds to take in my surroundings before I noticed a group of teens dancing around to our right in the sea splashing, laughing and having a good time.

“Let’s go say hello” Loren shocked me with his sudden excitement. The sudden thoughts of regret filled me. They all seemed happy…

Before I could protest Loren dragged me over closer until I was at a distance where I could see people’s features. Music was blaring as they all danced without a care in the world with smiles plastered on their faces. I looked at all of them searching for his cute face.

“Is that him?” Loren asked in a hushed tone gesturing towards the middle of the group where I saw Reuben grinding against a muscular man who was around our age- his age. Technically nowadays I didn’t even know what I was or how old I was in ‘Son of Satan age’. “Yes” I muttered feeling the need to back off quickly before he saw me. I took a step back looking to Loren to voice my thoughts but he shook his head a smirk forming on his lips.

He clicked his fingers which ceased the music to a halt making the group look to one another but once one noticed us…they all looked. I looked to Loren making a face, “Was that necessary?” I asked. “Raum…” I tensed immediately even though inside I felt myself dying a little at how much I had missed his innocent voice. I looked from Loren to Reuben who now stood beside the guy who was looking sceptical but I noticed a speck of fear.
