Love, Regrets and Lies

~Love, Regrets and Lies~ Chapter 4

'I-I mean Hayley. It's Hayley. My name is Hayley.' I stammered.

 'Nice'' Emzhell mouthed at me.

 ''Shut up'' I mouthed back.

 'Oh, hi, Hayley...What's up?'

 'Oh, um, nothing...I was just making sure this is your number. And it is, so...Um, I'm gonna go now. Bye!' I went to put down the phone but Emzhell grabbed my hand.

 'Hiya! I'm...Uh, Danielle Evans, I'm..Hayley's friend! She doesn't want to talk to you right now so.. .tell me why I shouldn't hang up.'

'Because I..because you rang me, and now you're hanging up on me so its just a waste of time since we haven't gained anything from this call!'

'I have.' And she hung up.

'I could have done that myself,' I said, glaring at her.

'No you couldn't! You could never mind read like me!' 

I had forgotten how cool Emzhell thought being a drow was. She used her powers for everything. And she could mind read so well that she could tell what type of person someone was by getting them to say one sentence over the phone.

'So, what's the verdict? Is he nice? Would he run of I told him what I am? Would he go out with me?' I clamped my hand over my mouth. There I was, shooting my mouth off again.

'Yes, he's nice and- wait, WHAT? WOULD HE GO OUT WITH YOU? Would HE go out with YOU? Are you mad? You killed his...his SHEEPING brother and sister! And his best friend! You are an idiot Aimee.'

'I know. I just blurted it out. But...but I wouldn't have to tell him. He wouldn't have to know. I would just stay human the whole time.'

'And when you crave-?'

'I would go on ''holiday'' '

'Your relationship would be based on a lie.'

'Don't say that. Be happy for me. If I wasn't a drow, what would you say?'

'I-' she sighed. 'He is nice, trusting, gullible and loving. He would probably believe you if you told him you weren't a drow.' She recited, as if from memory.

'Thank you.' I said. And I left the room. Somehow I don't think she wants me with Sam.

~Sam~

'That was the weirdest phone call I ever held.' I said to my pet parrot, Blondie.

'Yeah, I know, like, I almost DIED!' she replied. I smiled. That's what Jay used to say. He owned Blondie before me. Before he was killed.

'Go away dude. Get away from me you crazy . Monster! Get away...go on...please, just...g-go...' she said then. That wiped the smile off my face. That was Jay's death scene.

'What, Blondie?' 

And she let out a heart wrenching scream. Yeah, Jay's death scene.  

I heard a gasp behind me. There was James. My last remaining sibling. To make it worse, he was Jay's identical twin. And Charlott's Godfather. She was only a baby when she was killed, but it was still a blow. I hated that stupid 'Drow,' I said.

'What? Wha...say?' That was how James always spoke, ever since Jay died.

'Nothing, James. I was just thinking about a TV show I saw.'

'What...drow? Want...know! Need...tell me!'

'It's fine James!'

'Can...borrow...laptop?' 

I nodded and he took it off my lap and headed up to his room.

~James~

I went upstairs to the twin room. We should really just call it the single room now that my twin isn't alive anymore. 

I opened up Google and searched up ''drow''.

DROW

Appearence: black skin, black 2m wings, black hair, eyes with red Iris' and purple whites.  

Traits: Carnivores, though some females break the rule. Like wolves, hunt in packs and have alpha and omega. Can shapeshift into any living thing, though eyes stay the same. Some can mind read. Only ever noted to have emotional weaknesses, such as love, frustration, sadness or anger.

Occasional sightings.

I scrolled down for an update. Nothing apart from another discovered weakness. Mint.Those were the creatures that killed Jay and Charlotte. Disgusting things. I suddenly remembered something. I ran downstairs, grabbed my keys and Sam's phone and jumped into my car.  

I had remembered those eyes.
