Unite (sequel to Team) Big Four + reader + Hazelia, my fictional twin

Chapter 43

When Hazelia woke up, she found Jack Dark sitting beside her bed. He smiled sadly at her, eyes red, probably from last night's crying.

She matched his smile and sat up, covering her face with her hands.

" I still can't believe it," she murmured.

Jack Dark frowned.

" Believe what?" he asked.

" Tasha's... gone."

Then he slowly nodded.

" Tash had been a great friend to me... even if she could be annoying sometimes. But that is how she is... was," he admitted.

" I've probably ruined all that." she said as she let her hands fell to her lap and Jack Dark realized she was crying again.

" Hazy, it was never your fault... stop beating yourself up."

" But I..."

" Gosh, stop crying. Come here." he said and sat on her bed beside her before pulling her into a hug as she cried silently.

When she finally calmed down, she took a deep shaky breath.

" I'll never get the chance to know her better," she said softly. Then she pulled away and wiped her tears. " You've been here all night?" she asked.

Jack Dark shrugged in return.

" Thanks," she said.

" We need to get ready. Today's the day of Tasha's funeral... and Manny wants you to sing a song for her. Can you do that?" he asked.

Hazelia nodded without hesitation.

" I'm in control of my power now. So, yes." she said.

Jack Dark smiled and stood up.

" Well, get ready." he said and then walked out of her room, closing the door behind him gently.

Hazelia then sighed, looking around her sadly, what Tasha had said still echoing in her mind.

She got up from bed and took a warm bath before slipping herself into a long black dress with long sleeves and a hood attached to the back. Then she pulled her hair into a ponytail and pulled up the hood as it covered her bright hair. She snapped her fingers and the circles under her eyes disappeared while her eyes brightened so she won't looked like a mess. She clasped her amethyst necklace around her neck and sighed, she would need its energy.

Then she walked out of the door and went down to the hall to join the others.

Y

/N woke up to feel someone shaking her gently.

She pried her eyes opened to find her mother looking down at her, smiling weakly. Y/N sat up and rubbed her eyes, clearing her vision. She looked at her mother to see a very unusual sight.

Her mother was wearing a black dress, and her red hair was tied into a bun inside a hair net. Her mother was also wearing black gloves.

Then it dawned on her... Tasha's funeral.

" Come on, Y/N. We should get going." her mother said.

Y/N nodded and stood up from her bed, grabbing a towel and going into the bathroom.

" You need me to call the maids to dress you up?" her mother asked but Y/N only shook her head.

The queen sighed, walking towards Y/N and engulfing her in a hug.
