Forgotten Hallucinations

~32: Return~

Y/N's POV

"You what?"

Lusiel looked confused and equally when I said those words.

"I don't know why you did what you did, but you did it. Now it's time to move on." I stood up and attempted to walk away, when he reached out and grabbed my wrist.

"Y/N..."

"Lusiel, I would have loved for us to go back to the way we were when I was younger, but that is no longer possible. Not at this time at least. I am no longer interested in getting to know you. You've changed and so have I."

I pull my wrist free from his hand and look at everyone in the room. They looks so tired.

"You guys should go your rooms..." I suggest as I lay on my bed, holding my pillow close to my chest.

"Uh, okay then. I'll come by later..." Simi tried to smile and leaves the room quickly, Taye walking over to me.

He puts his hand on my head, moving my hair back and kissing my forehead. "I'm happy your back. If you need to talk, I'll be in the room across the hall. I don't know what this thing," he looks at Lusiel, "did to me and I don't want to see what else he will." He winks and strides out of the room, glaring at Lusiel on his way out.

Gemini just goes to the other side of the bed and lays next to me.

I stare at him.

"What do you expect me to leave too? No way. Not with you and him in the same room..."

I rolled my eyes and turned away from him, facing the figure on the floor.

"Y/N... I'm sor-"

"No, stop. I don't want to hear that. I already know. That is what everyone says. I'm tired of it..." I run my hand through my hair, and try to scratch my arm, then remembering it's still wrapped up.

"I want us to still be friends though... I know it's not going to be easy and-"

"Yeah, it won't be easy at all. I'm not even sure why you are here! You died, come back for revenge, lost and now you are here? As a person or spirit?"

"P-person...." he mumbled.

I look at him with wide eyes.

"No... no.... this can't...." I start scratching at my arms and look around the room frantically. Gemini grabs my wrist and whispers in my ear, "Stop it. There is no need."

"Get out."

Lusiel was taken aback. "W-what?"

"I said get out. Of this room, this house. Just go. And don't come back for now." I get up as walk towards the door. He stood reluctantly and walked out the door, giving me a miserable look.

I waited.

After hearing the front door downstairs shut, I move to collapse face first on the bed, J laying on me then.

"You missed him, didn't you?" He says.

"Mhmm..." I said into the pillow. He shifts to lay next to me and puts my head on his chest.

"You wanted to back to the way you guys were?" He asks, stroking my head.

I nod.

"You can cry, you know..."

"I know..."

8 months later

"So this is it..."

"Yeah, surprisingly it is."

"It hasn't changed one bit. Still the same shi-"

"Hey! This is where we grew up! Don't-" I paused and we looked at each other.

"- never mind. It's still the same."

Gemini puts his arm on my shoulder. "So this is where you guys grew up."

"Yeah, this is where I became Y/N savior." Lusiel smirks and I playfully pinch his shoulder.

"Not even close, my friend." I smiled.

"But why is it only now after how many years that you finally decide to come back?" Taye asks.

"I'm not sure. Maybe because I wanted to see for myself if anything had changed... if I had changed." I scan the area and looked down at the ground, when Simi almost pounces on me and Gemini ruffles my hair.

"Of course! You must have changed! I can't even imagine you lived here." Simi said while looking around as well.

"Even I couldn't understand why someone who looked like her was here as well when I first met her." Lusiel added.

"Hey guys, can we get going and check this place out?" Taye had already been ahead of us taking pictures and running form one place to another.

"Slow down!" I yelled and ran to him, the others following.

All of us spent the whole day exploring the small town I had used to called my "home", from my high school to the hangout Lusiel and I had, to his old houses and past my house.

"I can't believe this is your house." Lusiel said, as we stopped in front of it, the even sun creating on even older look to it.

"Yeah..." The memories slowly flooded my mind as I shed a tear and held my head. Gemini hugged me from behind as Taye and Lusiel held my hand.

"You were strong, don't worry." Gemini said. "That man was just too weak accept it so he pushed is emotions and dissatisfaction unto you."

"I still should have tried to kill him..." Lusiel muttered.

"Maybe you should have." Taye added.

"No."

They all looked at me. "Why?"

"He wouldn't have had a chance to change if you did." I let out a sigh. "Even though he was the way he was, he was still my dad. Awful he was, but I still hope he had a chance to change..."

"Aww!!" Simi shoves all the boys away and gives me the tightest hug. "You're so sweet!!"

I reluctantly let her hug me and stepped back smiling.

"Hey Y/N?"

I turned to Lusiel. "Yeah?"

"Ever wonder what happened to Ten?"

I froze.

"Yeah.... Why?"

"Oh, no reason..." Lusiel smirked and started to run off on the other direction.

"What, wait a minute!" I chased after him, as the sound of laughter from the other fills the air.

To be honest, up till this day, I still wonder what happened to Ten in the end.....
