Love or Hate- A Jyrus Fanfic

UNIVERSE.

As my mind began to fade from the beating that I had just endured, I retreated back into the light I found within the Darkness. The Darkness has a hidden peace in it, but stay in it too long and you'll become the Darkness. I guess that's what happened to Jonah, Andi, Buffy, and what's happing to me. If the Individual finds themselves close to the Darkness, the Darkness will acquire how to protect the Individual, but if the Individual comes to close, the Darkness will learn how to exploit the individual.

(Yo, don't tell me yall didn't see the Jonah-Cyrus correlation.)

Suddenly I was jolted awake as I felt my body being cradled by familiar hands. These hands belonged to Jonah.

"No, please, let me go, please." I sai erratically as I struggled t get out of his grasp.

"What happened to you?" Jonah said concerned, trying to hold me still.

"Please, stop, let me go." I said thrashing around even more.

"Cy, calm down, you're with me." Jonah said in a soothing voice, un-restraining me from his grip to comb through my hair with his hands.

I took the opportunity to dash out of the house, not looking back. As I ran down the steps toward the front door I heard Jonah call out my name, almost sounding like he was pleading me to come back. My mind was pleading as well. It was pleading for my body to turn around and go back to Jonah. He sounded really genuine. I missed his hand stroking my hair. Then I remembered that it was that same hand that inflicted all of this pain upon me. The regret I had for leaving turned into hatred, but I still felt like the love was still alive, somewhere. Running farther and farther away I didn't stop until my legs couldn't take it any-longer. Comming to stop, I had come to realize just how far I had run. Standing by the edge of town, I was right at the entrance of the park. Maybe Buffy was right, I do have a chance of getting on the track team. I'll probably never try out though.

My legs carried me into the park, leading me to the same bench theme and Jonah fell asleep on. The Universe must really hate me I thought to myself before sitting down.

Sitting down, I began to observe the world around me. I watched the people pass by, walking their dogs, playing with friends, or just out taking a casual stroll. Small flakes were falling sparsely from the sky above. The looked harmless is nature beautiful actually, until their coldness bites at your skin, burning you. I was numb to this burning, however, since the inferno raging on inside of my soul was far greater. As the sun sett, the bright yellows and warm oranges could be seen just above the dull gray clouds.

"So, looks like we both have stuff." Somebody said next to me.

I was so distracted that I didn't even notice TJ sitting next to me.

"Bet you I got more stuff." I said in return.

"Sure Cyrus." He responded sarcastically. "You ever feel like the Universe is against you. Like the Universe is a..." He paused, trying to find the right word to finish the sentence.

"Like the Universe is a Bitch." I said, finishing his sentence.

"Exactly. YOU HEARD THAT UNIVERSE! YOU'RE A BITCH!" Tj screamed while pointing his head up at the sky.

"Stop It." I said, playfully slapping his arm, embarrassed that people started to look.

"Hey, I'm just letting it know. Give it a try Cyrus, it'll make you feel better."

"Ah, no- definitely not." I answered adamantly.

"Common, live a little." He said, pushing me to do it."

"Fine" I said before continuing. Breathing it deeply and closing my eyes, I pointed my head towards the sky and screamed "UNIVERSE, YOU'RE A BITCH!" I said. " Hey, it does make you feel better." I said, but quickly regretted it after I noticed even more people staring. Hey, I'm not a confident person, okay.

We sat there on the bench for a couple more hours, ust talking about life. Oh ya, and TJ screamed, "UNIVERSE, YOU'RE A BITCH." a couple more times.

Eventually, it was beginning to get dark. TJ checked his wrist-watch.

"It's getting late. I should probably go before my mom beats my ass black and blue for coming home late again." TJ said, smiling.

"Ya, I should probably go too." I said, laughing.

Not knowing what to do, I pulled him into a hug, but it felt forced, more like a bro hug than anything. It wasn't like one of Jonah's hugs. Ugh, why can't I get that boy out of my brain?

"Alright, have fun with the Bitch-Ass Universe." TJ said, walking away.

I laughed as I walked in the opposite direction towards my house. I wouldn't say that I was happy, but just lifted in spirts, which meant a lot at that time.
