Never Take That Second Chance (Uberhaxornova/Creatures Fan Fiction)

Final Two

School was going to be long today, and I knew it. I knew James would be giving me more hell then he ever did, there's just one change with that. Aleks isn't here to make it worse anymore. And for some reason James didn't even bother trying to hurt me last week, actually, no one saw any signs of him until Saturday night.

I stood by the bus stop, alone once again. Seems every big thing for me always started at the bus stop. Meeting Seamus, going to face James and Aleks again, last place I was before I died on the tree, and many more examples that you may know already.

"Hey Elle." Seamus greeted me when he finally walked up to the bus stop.

"Hi Seamus." I gave him a warm smile, which he gladly returned back to me. I slightly blushed, mainly because of the sudden gust of cold wind that the bus brought when it pulled up. I groaned when I went inside, I seriously didn't want to go to school today.

"Not in the mood for school either?" Seamus asked me.

I nodded. School is always someone's hell at one point of their lives. For me, it is hell because I'm going to school with a devil, and I am in love with him as well. I just hope he isn't who I am going to have to choose in the end.

Choosing! That's in a month! Dammit, not that much time left but my choices are dwindling. I only have to pick from Seamus, James, and Ze. Heck, even Ze or James might need to be crossed off from the list! I just need to wait, I need to wait for the right time to pick. I do have until the day after graduation like Eddie said.

-----Time Skip-----

Seamus, Eddie, and I slowly walk over to the lunch table. I think we all have been having lack of sleep since Aleks' death, even though a few weeks have passed since then. That means only two weeks until I have to chose, and I'm still stuck with the top three.

"Hey guys." I said, sitting down at our usual table with Eddie's friends.

Jordan and Monica were talking while Ze was happily texting someone on the phone. I wonder who it could be? Dan was pleased to see me, having gotten over his small fear of talking to girls soon after meeting me. I guess I was the wild card that turned out to be vital.

"Hey Elle, Seamus, and Eddie!" Dan said happily.

I looked over at Ze. "Hey Ze, what are you doing on your phone?"

Ze shot his head up, blushing darkly. "N-Nothing!"

Monica laughed. "Ze met this new girl online, now he won't stop talking to her!"

My heart shattered right there. Ze found someone else he loved? That means I can't love him anymore. I knew something between us felt off when I walked up today. I-I just can't believe it.

I barely touched my food afterwards, getting worried glances from Seamus and Eddie. James already tried to start something with me today, but it ended up with us somewhat making out until Eddie found us. Thank god for the real angel to come and save me, just like Seamus would've done but he would've hurt by James and I kissing.

"You alright, Elle?" Seamus finally spoke.

I jolted my head, sending him a reassuring smile. "I-I'm fine, just not hungry that's all."

Eddie raised an eyebrow. "Okay then." Seemed like Seamus was influenced not to pester me anymore.

After I did somehow finish my food, I quickly got up and ran off. I couldn't deal with the stares everyone at the table were giving me, and finding out that Ze found someone made it ten times worse. I ran out to the infamous tree I always went to when I wanted to cry alone, it helped me think more clearly. But everything seemed to be all mixed into a blur, and the fog lingering in my mind wouldn't fade.

I sobbed quietly, hiding myself to the best of my abilities in the tree's shade as I dug into my backpack. I dug out the only thing that shimmered in light, something I haven't touched for a long time.

It felt cold under the touch of my skin, already begging me to be used. I sighed, or sobbed, giving in to its calling. The blade flashed in my face as I hid my arm behind my back pack, looking at the still noticeable scars from the last time.

I also saw scars from when I have done it multiple times before that, but I was addicted to it back then. It's like some people with smoking, alcohol, and drugs, I couldn't seem to get enough of it. Maybe it's because that's what going to hell everyday does to you. It was the only way to keep me sane.

I slashed a few marks on my arms a few times, it didn't feel as good as it did when I have done it before. Could it be that I feel something now? Or that I need to live on in order to help me become fully Immortal? Maybe even that I became a new person when Eddie revived me. I didn't know, all I knew it that I saw someone run up to me in panic.

"ELLE!" I was shocked to see who that person was. I would've thought it was Eddie or James, but no. It was Seamus.
