Death in Small Doses

11. Visit

After we ate we played some games they had stashed away. 

Jax and Maven both tried to be on my team but instead I teamed up with Marcy. Luna and Lyan were on a team and that meant that Jax and Maven had to be on a team.

I giggled at the faces Jax would make at Maven when he looked away.

Surprisingly, they won several times and tied their wins with that of Marcy's and I's.

When we finished the games it was 10:15 and we retired to our rooms. I was left to clean up.

The lights flickered and shook. Instead of the dining room, I found myself in a cold and dark, stone cave. 

I heard a cackle, like nails on a chalkboard, behind me.

I scream and turn around, flailing  my arms in an attempt to defend myself.

Nothing is behind me and I hear the cackle again.

"Why did you leave me?" I hear a raspy cry. "Why Evelyn?"

I cry and fall to the ground. 

I see the girl out of the corner of eyes and I whimper.  She flashes closer and I'm paralyzed. She caresses my face with one hand.

"I will never be gone. Do not try and escape your mind again." She disappears and the room returns to normal. 

I gasp and breathe hard.

My mind? Who the hell is she?

I get up and rush out of the room and back to my room. When I reach the room I jump onto my mind and cover myself with my blanket. 

"Are you okay?" I hear.

I nod hesitantly. "I'm fine"

I look up to see Jax staring at me with concern. I sigh and stand up to get my clothes.

Jax gets up as well and grabs my arm. "Are you sure?" 

I say nothing and continue getting my clothes before walking out.

I watch as Evelyn walks out and frown. "She's not okay." I say out loud.

"You have that right." I see Maven in the doorway. "She's hanging out with you too much." I cast an evil look at Maven.

"You better take that back before I make you eat those words." I threaten.

"Not a chance." Maven smirks darkly.

I was about to get up but Evelyn bumped into Maven.

"Sorry." She exclaims.

"No problem." Maven blushes and grabs her hand as if to stabilize her.

She sighs "I'm such a clutz." 

"I don't think you are." He blushes again.

My blood boils. "She's fine now thank you Maven." I spit out.

Maven stares at me.

Evelyn just walks in and lays down on her bed.

Maven throws me a dirty look and walks away.

I frown again. Good bye loverboy. 

I look at Evelyn and sigh before rolling over and drifting to sleep.

What was that all about?

I shake my head and roll my eyes. Boys are weird.

My eyes drift shut and I fall asleep to the girl's face burned into my mind.

Hey people sorry about the late update, I have been in a huge writers block and it was hard to even write this so I hope you enjoy. -KittenLuv3
