Spread Your Wings.....Of Darkness?

Chapter 3: Go Away

~*Luna's P.O.V.*~

I continued staring at myself in the mirror. I was too scared to put my bra on because of these things! 'How do I get them to go away?' I thought. This was going to be impossible.

Should I just call Minho in here and show him? No, that would be weird and the others might follow him. But then again, he might be able to help...Ah! Why me?!

Taking a deep breath to calm my nerves, I wrapped the towel around my waist and turned slightly to get a good look at them. They certainly looked like angel wings, and they were so realistic that I knew I could not be dreaming, especially with the pain it caused me.

At first they looked like just an outline, but now that I looked closer I could see all the detail. The curves and swirls were actually really pretty.

Oh gosh, what was I thinking?! These things just came out of nowhere, caused me pain worse than getting that dang tattoo removed, and now I was thinking they were pretty?? I was starting to think I was going insane...

Maybe that was the case. Maybe I really was going insane with all the things that have happened in my life. But if that was the case, wouldn't I have gone crazy sooner?...So that crossed 'going crazy' off the list.

Hallucinating was definitely not a choice, a dream was out of the question also, and going crazy wasn't logical enough. None of them were logical enough. This was all so sudden and surprising and crazy.

'Stay calm Luna, you'll be fine.' My conscience was telling me. It was right, I just had to stay calm and not freak out. That was all there is to it.

I leaned away from the mirror and accidently hit a wing into the wall by mistake. I winced, but quickly recovered. "These things are definitely sensitive." I muttered, putting on my underwear and jeans. I was thankful I could at least put those on without having to worry.

I couldn't help it. Once I was done with that, I stared at myself in the mirror again. I was just having a hard time grasping onto the situation. I mean, come on, how would you deal with it if you were in my position?

An idea crossed my mind. A crazy idea I must admit, but it just might work. What if I concentrated really hard? So hard that I could get them to go away? For now at least, there was no way I was going out there like this.

I was willing to do anything at this point, so it was definitely worth a shot. So I closed my eyes and focused completely on the wings, only the wings. Even though I was completely calm on the outside, in my head I was saying, 'Please go away, please go away, please go away...'

A minute or so passed and nothing happened, so I figured that wasn't going to work. But right before I opened my eyes, the pain in my back returned. But it was different.

It wasn't like when the wings sprouted, more like someone was shoving them back in violently, not caring what kind of pain the put me in. I dropped to my knees, clenching my fists and holding back the urge to scream. I ground my teeth together so hard I could almost feel them about to break.

The pain went away faster than before and sent a jolt in my chest before going away completely, somehow pushing me forward a little and I had to reach my arms out to stop myself from slamming fast first into the tile.

I opened my eyes and realized I was panting and out of breath. What had just happened? Did it work? Were they gone?

Ignoring the suddenly dizzy feeling I had using as much strength as I could, I stood up and one again, looked in the mirror.

It worked, they were gone. I sighed, feeling relieved and relaxed. 'Thank God,' I thought grabbing my bra and putting it on. I was so thankful that they went away. Now I just had one more thing to deal with: What to say to the guys.
