George's POV
The house is silent.
Thats the first thing I take note of as I walk in,I drop my helmet down by the door and close the blue door behind me slowly. Usually the TV's on, or dad.... Aaron... is working in the kitchen on dinner or singing along with some long forgotten artist.
"Dad?" I call and test the waters slowly, I step into the living room and tuck my keys into my back pocket. "Ya home? The front door wasnt locked."
I hardly have a second to dart out of the way as Aaron launches across the room and slams against the wall. My eyes widen and I scramble on top of the fridge.
It was the closest thing around to get up and away from him. I press my back against the wall and balance the fridge. If I fall I'm screwed.
"Where have you been George?" He smirks and head tilts at me with an odd snap. I study his lips the flash of his teeth. He's snapped. After all these years the man has snapped. From stress or something that had flung into the air once I got Alex and Thomas going.
"College meeting." What the hell George? Its called an interview.
"I called around today since you left in such a rush, no one has a meeting with you today . Not within driving distance." He starts pacing, his eyes never leave the fridge and he watches qutha predators gaze." Where. Were. You. George."
"None of your buisness. I'm eighteen. Im an adult." I huff and study the magnet letters up here from when I was a kid and dad took them away.
"Don't push me George. " He hisses." You don't want to be the first one I have to kill. "
"You're not killing anyone this time. Not while I'm around." I snap and fingers curl into the edge of the fridge as he slams his fist into it, sending me rocking.
"Oh you angels think you can do anything you want with anyone. You think that you can hold me at bay?" He laughs and sits on the counter.
"No. I know I can. You told me I can, I'll protect my loved ones from you." I jump down and stand tall, I give him a cool glare and grind my teeth. "I'll protect them from anyone you throw at us."
"You can't if you're not there. " He studies his nails and swings his feet. "They're breakable." He shrugs and eyes slide to me.
"They're strong. They're new and unbroken here, we're in a new environment that we can use for our advantages. " I huffand grind my teeth.
"How far do I have to push for them to break while you're gone?" He puts his arms on his legs. I frown and look down, my eyes widen and I start backing up. I turn and run for the door, it wont budge. I throw all my weight against it and put the key in. It wont budge. "That's not going to work George."
"Why not?" I turn and snarl.
"Magic is still a thing here George. "He laughs and eyes watch me. My eyes dart to the window and his smile drops. I bet he didnt think Im sumb enough to jump from the window.
"Philip was right, I am a moron." I sigh and jump over the couch, I smash my elbow through the window and start in a free fall down to the ground.
