Forced To Be With Him || Kayla's Faith {Book 1&2} (Descended From Hell Series)

Chapter 13

I sat in bed, staring at the ceiling for an hour now, with headphones in my ears. "Attention" from Charlie Puth was playing and I was lost in thought. It's all 4 in the morning and I'm still up. Why? I don't know.

Oh, I still have to set up the picture frame.

When I do that, I see a picture of Maria and I at school. I remember she took a random picture of us covered in paint and glitter in art class.
Then a picture with her, Gene and I came up. We were at the beach and my brother took that picture.
A picture of my mom, dad, brother, Luciana and I came up. I'm really missing my family now.

I heard a knock on my door and wondered why I could still hear that even though I had my music almost of full volume.
Without even taking out the headphones, I get up and opened the door. "Yes?" I asked, and looked up at Damian's gold eyes. I wonder why he's here? "I didn't think you'd still be up. Glad you are." He said, leaning against the door frame. "What are you doing so late though?" He asked. I pointed to my headphones and said "listening to music and missing my parents."

He looked at me with soft eyes. "You want to go visit them?" I thought about his question and nodded. "But I can't do that can I?" He looked away from me, looking deep in thought. "I came here to do one thing, now it's two." He said and came closer to me. He pecked my cheek, making me blush.

Damian's POV

I wasn't really doing anything. Just sitting in my room staring at the wall with my mother's picture on it. "Mom, why did I leave you that day. I could have saved you..."

Flashback!

15year old Damian and 6year old Dixie were playing with 13year old Ethan. Ethan hardly ever played with them so they won't going to pass up the opportunity. When Damian and Dixie returned to there mother's room, she was dead. The ends of her long chestnut hair soaked in blood. Her head severed from her body. Her baby blue eyes wide open and glassy. Claw marks and blood everywhere. Dixie's eyes widened, already filled with tears, and both children screamed.

End of Flashback

I hand my elbows on my thighs, holding my head in my hands. Then I thought of what happened an hour ago.

1hr ago...

"Julie, this is Cassandra, Cassandra, Julia." I said, smiling. After Cassy took a long look at Julia, she turned to me. "You called her Julie and me Cassandra. I thought I was Cassy?" She pouted.

"Nah, your a bitch." Said Allen, the second boy of the group. This made all five children laugh and Cassandra fume. "Watch it kid." She warned. Julia came up to me and whispered, "can I go to my room now?" Then looked at me with a pleading look. I was going to ask why but I didn't and told her yes. "Sister? Where are you going?" Dixie asked, making her turn around.

"She obviously doesn't want to be around when her man's girlfriend is around." Cassy said, making all five kids turn to me. "I'm going to my room." Julia said,  And walked off, not turning around for a second. "Good job Damian. I thought you were someone I could look up too." Allen said, following after Julia. "Yeah man, it's only been a few hours and you blew it." Marco said, walking off with the girls to go see Julia. "Cassandra, just remember that I hate you. And you would never get my big brother." Dixie said, venom dripping off her words.

Dixie swiftly pelt three daggers at Cassy and I caught two of them before it could hit her, the other grazed her cheek and cut some of her long hair off. She screamed and stormed out the room. Dixie gave me a death stare then walked out the room also, I'm sure she was going to Julia's room.

...

I sat up and sighed. "What should I do mom? I don't want her to end up like you." I said, looking up at the roof. I sighed again and got up, going to Julia's room.

I stud outside her door for I'm sure was a little more than five minutes, thinking of what to say. When nothing came to mind i just knocked saying I'll wing it. "Yes?" When she answered the door I was slightly shocked. She's still up? "I didn't think you'd still be up. Glad you are." I said, leaning on the door frame looking down into her brown eyes. "What are you doing so late though?" I asked. She said she was listening to music and missing her parents. Just like I was missing my mom.

I then asked a stupid question, which I already knew the answer too, then I started thinking. "Alright, the first thing I wanted to do, was apologize. Cassy can get very out of hand." I said, making her look at me like 'are you serious?' "If she's your girlfriend she has every right to be. If u want me to pick someone else that's fine." She said, not letting me finish. She was holding the door and was slowly closing it, waiting for my answer. "No, you've got it all wrong Julia. Cassandra and I are just friends. Nothing else." I said quickly, making her look me in the eye. "Oh, alright." She said, and it was quite for a little.

I took that time to look her up and down. She was wearing a short pants and crop top. I took in every inch of her exposed body parts. When I realized she was blushing, looking away from me, I knew she knew I was checking her out. "U-um. Now for the second thing." I swallowed, looking away from her. "You said you wanted not see you're family. Well, in a month's time I can take you out. You just have to get use to staying here and stuff." I said, making her eyes light up.

"Oh my god! Thank you!" She said, hugging me.
When she pulled away, she was smiling like a kid that just got candy. "Where is Dixie?" I asked. "I think she's in the kitchen. The five of them wanted to make something. Don't ask me what that something is though." She said, walking out the room. I closed her door and we walked to the kitchen.
