What I Did To Her

I felt myself... drifting away in a cloud of lilac.
But, as I flew upwards, I saw a small, purple puff of smoke twirl towards where I had just been.
I'm glad she lived. But I'm sorry what I have done to myself and my family...
And even what I did to her.
She has a lot to live up to. But... I know she'll do great. She's a Lace after all.
And we Lace's are the strongest people you will ever meet.
That's just the way it is.
And the way it'll always be.
At least, I hope so.

Do you ever ever have those moments, when you feel as though you are the most happy and lucky person in the whole world of Remnant.... only to find that you were wrong, and your life is about to get really, really bad. Really bad. Like... horrible bad.
Well... I'm having one of those moments.
A few hours ago I was pouring my heart and soul into the person I loved. And now, I'm laying on my bed, wondering why I'm alone, and sore and... and why Malakai is gone and isn't returning my texts and calls.

Maybe he had to go home?
Family emergency?
Perhaps he's studying for the test we have to take once school starts back next week.
I'll see him then for sure...
It'll be fine.
Maybe we can do what we did again!
Yeah!
That's brilliant!
You are such a genius Violet.
I yawn.
Which really isn't surprising.
I'll just nap for a few minu-

Everything around me is black.
Why is this familiar...
A woman is standing in front of me, her hair long and purple... the same as mine. She has big beautiful eyes and porcelain skin, her frame long and curvy. On her head, a pair of white and aqua cat ears, 3 earrings on each. Her arms are behind her back, but I can see the glint of a sword... my sword, in between her legs.The only way she could get anymore beautiful would be if... If she smiled.
Why is she frowning?
Is she... is she crying?
I see a tear of silver slither down her cheek as the ground sucks her up and she disappears.
In front of me now is a boy. Tan skin, greenish-blue hair, and slender build. I can't see his eyes, but his lips are curled in a horrible smirk.
He walks closer to me, and grabs my shoulders, snarling.
I feel him shove me, and I fall...

*******

I wake up, drenched in sweat, my hair clinging to my cheeks.
That was just about the weirdest dream of my life.
"Are you alright, love?" Aqui whispers from beside me. I screech and stare at her, wondering how the hell she got there.
"Uh... I'm fine. A little sore but fine. Did, did you see Malakai leave?"
She stares blankly at me, "no, no I didn't. He must've left early... wait... why did he sleep over in the first place, Vi?"
My cheeks flush and I look away from her, "I just offered for him to sleep over, cuz he didn't want to disturb his mother..."
She nods at me, clearly aware of what actually happens. She's my big sister and well... this kinda stuff happens to her often. Generally against her will.... Always against her will. She's too nice for her own good. Men use her left right and centre. She tries to avoid them and hang around women, but they are equally as attracted to her. She's Asexual. She gets no pleasure out of anything. I wish she would just stick up for herself and try to be strong. Sometimes I think she needs to be more like Blanc and Tema. Badasses who don't let anyone boss them around... expect in Blanc's case. He only takes orders from Tema and Aqui.
"I'll got get some Painkillers." I watch her walk calmly out of the room, her hips swaying slightly.
Her hair was braided today... it looks really nice. Not dragging on the floor, getting caught in stuff, or tangling into large knots. It just sits nicely down her back like a waterfall.
I fall back onto my bed and look over at my notes on my desk.
Goddamn tests.

*****

The couch is comfy. I like sitting on it. It's calming.
I run my finger against where the tear on the cushion (caused by Blanc) used to be.
I've been laying here for the last hour, thinking about what I can talk to Malakai about when School is back in session.
It's annoying me.
Wondering why he still hasn't messaged me in three days.
I called his mum and she answered, then hung up once I asked if Malakai was there.
It's like... he's avoiding me. But why would he avoid me? I just gave him all of me... and...
I feel my eyes well. Why am I crying? I don't cry...
"What're you doing?" I look up at father standing above me, a cigarette in one hand, and a lighter in the other.
"Nothing Father, just relaxing." I smile weakly and sit up, wriggling over to make room for him to sit down. And he does. He sits down next to me and pats my head, something he hasn't ever done before.
"What's wrong kiddo?" He looks at me, concern glossing over his eyes.
"Nothing.."
"Don't lie. I hate liars," he pauses and puts and arm around my shoulder, "Usually this house is light and happy when you're here. But, you're here now, and it feels as depressing- if not more- than when you aren't here. Why is that?"
I look up at him, tears welling in my eyes. All memory of him hating me and abusing me vanishing, that slither of hope that I could have a parent to cry on the shoulder of.
"I don't kn-know. I g-gave him everything a-and he just w-walked out like it was nothing. I was in pai-n mental-ly and physically after it all..." I sunk my head into his shoulder and wept.
He didn't respond.
"Daddy?" I looked up at him as he pulled away from me, lighting his cigarette. His eyes returning to the way they always were.
"What did you do with Malakai?" He took a puff from it, the smoke burning my nostrils.
"Dad...."
"What. Did. You. Do. With. Malakai?" He gritted his teeth and tucked my fringe behind my ear, sneering.
I clenched my eyes shut and whispered the answer to him.
He grabbed my chin and brought it closer to his face.
"You filthy little...."
