Marked or claimed (on hold)

marked or claimed ch.8

 Axen's POV

"well axen you have a lot of explaining to do." I looked at alexa and she looked pissed. 

"I will. I just have to get home." 

"well we have to walk my car is broken."  

"oh well that's just wonderful." I started walking towards my house. 

"um smart one your house is that a way." alexa said pointing in the other direction. 

"I am not directionally challenged." I said turning around and walking the other way. 

"of course not." she followed. Alexa has dark brown hair almost black with aqua streaks and aqua eyes. She had an aqua hoodie on with some black in it. Her dress pants are black flare. once we got to my house I went to the freezer and got some chocolate ice cream and two spoons. 

"come on. I got some jeans if you want to borrow them." I said stomping up the stairs. Alexa came upstairs after me. I grabbed a pair of black skinny jeans and threw them to her. She put them on and I grabbed my favorite pair of jeans and my favorite shirt. I put them on. The shirt is black and white. The straps cross in the front and the tie in the back, with sleeves are small strips of fabric that rested on the upper arms and on the right arm a ribbon wrapped around what was left of the upper arm. The jeans I made, with black fabric in a triangle stitched in the front left hip to the right hip, midway down the thigh. 

"wow, dressy much?" 

"it's not that bad is it?" I asked looking in the mirror. 

"no but you look nice." alexa said. 

"oh well I have to straighten my hair." 

"really I haven't ever seen your hair straight." 

"yeah. I never really had the chance but it's gonna be quick so grab the ice cream." I walked over to the bathroom and flipped the light. I plugged in my straightener and turned around. 

"hey." I jumped like ten feet there was alexa. 

"holy shit you scared me!"  

"sorry." 

"uh huh, so ask me whatever you want." 

"well just explain from the beginning." alexa said taking a scoop of ice cream. I quickly explained everything. Even last night. When I got to the part about my dreams she choked on her ice cream holding out her finger to wait. Once she was done she asked, 

"are you sure it was Jayden?" 

"hell yeah I'm positive!" I waved around the straightener. 

"don't burn me." 

"I won't. I'm done anyway." I unplugged the straightener and put it back. When I stood up I noticed a crescent shaped burn on my left wrist. The tips are black. "what is this?" I asked holding up my arm. 

"how would I know." 

"well I wouldn't either." we sat in silence. shit I just remembered something. "wait I just remembered something! Grab the ice cream!" I ran out of the bathroom and into my room and ran over to bookcase and started pulling book off of it. I found the book I was looking for it's called the book of the supernatural. "my aunt said to look in here if anything weird happened." alexa sat on the bed. 

"okay so read it." I flipped it over and it had a crescent on the front of it. 

"okay so it says that if a girl gets a crescent shaped burn on their left wrist that it will slowly turn black and that when it does they will be claimed. And that the person that marked or claimed them visits their dreams. There are only two people who can undo the mark. The person you love or the Helper. The helper is a person who helps the claimer get the marked person fully marked." 

"so Jayden is the guy who marked you." 

"that's why he wanted a date!" I got up and walked over to the bed. 

"I'm gonna kill him." 

"you can't not till I get unmarked." 

"I was figuratively speaking but why not?" 

"because if you kill him you kill me." 

"oh how much time do you have?" 

"um two months." 

"what you only have two months?!" 

"yeah." 

"well you have to tell aved you love him and do whatever it takes to get unclaimed!" 

"why? I'm not even sure I do! So what if I like him. I don't know if I love him!" 

"oh shit I forgot to text my mom! Do you mind if I crash here tonight?" 

"sure maybe that will make aved leave." 

"what?! We are gonna have a serious talk." she pulled out her env touch and walked out my door.  

"great!" I closed my eyes and the doorbell rang. Of course. I got up and ran downstairs and there standing was . . . . . . . .
