inamorata

chapter 16

"Relax ang come on, he has a good reason, right?"

Mika shivered between the arrow aimed at him and ollie.

"Y-Y-yeah, of course I do"

"STOP STAMMERING!"

"Calm down gorgeous, put down the bow"

I squint my eyes at him and wonder if he is brain dead.

Like , seriously, you think that's going to work.

Why are boys so damn stupid?

He takes a small, unsure and hesitant step towards me and I tighten my grip on the bow.

I'm getting pissed off now. My patience was not going to get better.

"THREE"

I shout,

"Angel, please"

"TWO"

"Ang, you'll kill him"

Yeah, what if you do kill him?

SHUT UP!

"One"

And I fire the arrow without thinking twice.

It slides past his face leaving a long slit beneath his eye,

he groans in pain and grabs his face whilst Ollie lets out a deep sigh of relief.

I watch the blood trickle through his hand and onto the stony road.

I rub the bridge of my nose and put down the bow, letting it lean on my thigh.

I let out the breath I held and scratched my head,

I take no notice of the titanium haired beast and my brother.

Then I pick the bow back up and grab the arrows before I walk away.

"Ang?"

I don't look behind me but just keep walking,

My face stings for some reason and I just want to go so I did, I don't know why, I did.

I picked up the arrow I had shot and walk into the forest, maybe I'll calm down,

Olivers:

"Dude, my face"

I watch the demon point to his face as if to say

'what the heck did I do?'

I sigh at him and reach for the first aid kit in the boot of our car.

"Dont worry about her,she'll be back soon, she's just bottled it up, You know that"

"I know.... it's just, I've been trying to get her to finally realise it but she is too stubborn to know what's in front of her"

He flinches at my touch, and hisses when I clean his wound before stitching it up.

"You know it will take time, she's not ready to admit it yet."

"How long though bro?"

His face was already beaten up, this was just the cherry on top.

we go silent for a while and it's obvious that he's thinking, I close the lid and sit in the drivers seat,

He follows soon later and sits where angel was sitting.

" do you think.... she would..."

"never"

I didn't have to even think about it. My sister would never kill anyone. Especially neither me or mika. Ever.
