Better parts of Hell

(A/N song song is what Dylan is singing, continue on)

(Destiny's POV)

      Ugh, I hate Mondays. Today I'm back to my schedule of classes and then work. I wish I could just go back to Friday, but I haven't even talked to Dylan since then. I don't know why I can't just get it together and text the guy, but I can't. All day I tried to pay attention to my classes, but found that I couldn't, and that my thoughts kept wandering back to Dylan.

      The second I got to work I decided to make myself a cup of our 'signature' iced pumpkin latte. In all honesty, we ripped it off Starbucks and added a little bit of caramel. As the coffee was brewing, I decided to just get over it and text Dylan. Apparently the thought was wasted though, as the moment I hit send, Dylan walked in the doors. "Oh, hey Destiny, I didn't know you'd be here" He said, with a bit of confusion. "Heh, I almost always work, but gotta pay rent somehow, right?" The second the words left my mouth I knew I should've kept it shut. I felt myself wither back into myself at the concerned look on his face. "Don't you live with you're parents" Oh shit,  should I tell him what actually happened? "Um, no actually, I uh, I got kicked out for being bisexual" That was a lie, but how could I tell him what had really caused me to move halfway across the country? I mean, the Bi part was true, but that wasn't what caused me to leave. "oh really?" He asks with an even more concerned face "I'm so sorry to hear that"

      God damn it, now I feel even worse for lying. "Eh, it's not as bad as you'd think" I said, trying to get him to stop worrying. "They were shitty parents anyway" I said with a bitter laugh. "Shitty how?" He asked. God damn this dude has a lot of questions.  As I tried to come up with a response that wouldn't reveal all the horrible things about my past, I felt my heart rate and breathing quicken. Oh shit, not now! I looked at Dylan with panic filled eyes, unable to form a sentence. "Destiny, whats wrong?" He asks, sounding as worried as I felt. Then seeming to answer his own question he tried to calm down. "Hey, Destiny hun? Just listen to my voice okay? It'll be alright, I promise" He said, more calm now, but even in my panicked state, I could tell he was just being calm for my sake, but I appreciated it all the same. "Try to follow my breathing okay? In, out. In, out" Seeming to realize that I wasn't able to breath along with him, he started to sing. "In my eyes, indisposed, In disguises no one knows, Hides the face, lies the snake, The sun in my disgrace" I knew the song, but my mind was so clouded, I couldn't place my finger. He continued singing, and slowly but surely I started to calm down, his voice was shaky, but calming all the same.  "Black hole sun, Won't you come, And wash away the rain, Black hole sun, Won't you come" He finished. "You have an amazing voice Dylan" I said in a shaky voice, still shaking from the attack. he immediately flushed bright red at my words. "I, uh, I'm not, uh-" he stumbled out and turned. I decided to let it go. We sat in silence for a while. (A/N i think someone stole their car radio, guys)  "Hey Dylan?" I asked after a few minutes. "Yeah Des?" I laughed slightly at the nickname "Two things. First off, Des? second, wanna hang out this weekend" He laughed, then put on a straight face. "First off" he said, doing a horrible impression of me "What would you like to be called, sass queen?" He broke off laughing then said in his normal voice "I'd love to" It's not a date right? We're just friends. At least i think that's all we are.

A/N: Yo, what up bitches, Its Shadow again. Yes, i know this chapter is weird and probably makes no god damn sense, but at least i didn't procrastinate (only because I pre-wrote this chapter) Anyways, that is it for today's chapter. Leave in the comments what you think our "outro" of sorts should be. For example mine is " That's all for now. Stay dark my shadowlings" and tsuki's is, well, actually, I'm not sure she has one, but either way, what do you guys think?
