Running Far (Jared Leto Fanfiction) *ON HOLD*

Chapter 12

Party Crash

Lyra's P.O.V

I change myself into into a different outfit, feeling more comfortable without the boys gawking at me. I begin setting up for another performace by my band and I, I'm plugging in my guitar when Aaron grabs me by my arm and pulls me outside.

"Aaron, what the fuck-" I'm cut off with his lips on mine, I writhe and fight from his grip. "Get off of me!" I shriek, screwing my eyes shut. Then I feel him bite my collar bone and I cry out in pain, and in one swift move, Aaron's weight is gone. I hear growling and grunting, I open my eyes and look down the stairs, finding Aaron and Jared in a vengeful fight. I gasp, feeling the blood disappear from the bite. 'The bite, it didn't work.' I think, breathing out a sigh of relief. Jared looks up at me, 'Kick his ass, Jared.' I think.

'Oh, with pleasure.' Jared smiles, giving me chills. I nod to him and then I hear the snap of Aaron's neck, my eyes widen. I look at the sky, watching the clouds clear to reveal... a full moon. 

"Get out of the moonlight, Jared!" I shout, Jared looks up and immediately cries out in pain. I quickly run to him, "Don't quit on me, Jared." I growl, pressing my lips against his. Jared moans, forgetting about the pain. I help him up the stairs and sneak into the house without being noticed. "Jared, go relax on the couch." Jared nods and leaves to the couch while I finish getting ready. I clear my throat into the mike, getting everyone's attention. "I know that its the last day of school and I should be taking a break from performing for people, especially in front my favorite band 'Thirty Seconds to Mars'. But I enjoy singing and performing, so here's a little song for the last year of school for seniors." I say, nodding to Ariana and Vicky.

 You're keeping in step in the line

Got your chin held high and you feel just fine

'Cause you do what you're told

But inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold

Just how deep do you believe?

Will you bite the hand that feeds?

Will you chew until it bleeds?

Can you get up off your knees?

Are you brave enough to see?

Do you want to change it?

I begin to sing 'The Hand That Feeds' by Nine Inch Nails.

Jared's P.O.V

My eyes immediately fly open, my mind recognizing the song. 'Nine Inch Nails?'  I think, getting up to see Lyra performing 'The Hand that Feeds'. My smirk turns into a smile, 'She knows me too well.' I think.

After the Party...

After we finished cleaning up, I knock on Lyra door, find her on her laptop. "What are you doing?" I ask, She smiles.

"Applying for college, dum dum." She answers, punching my arm playfully. I smile sadly, "I know what you're thinking, I'm not moving out." She adds, I breathe out a sigh of relief.
