Eclipse Rising

Memories ~Chapter 4~

I try to open my eyes but I can't. I hear mom sobbing beside me and I feel her grab my hand. I want to reach out to her so badly. I want to console her and say that she shouldn't be sorry. That I'm sorry. But I'm caught in the darkness surrounding me. Suddenly, a white light blinds me and I'm thrown into a room. I look and realize I'm in a memory. Only thing is, I'm like a shadow just observing. My head whips around as I hear someone come into the room. I turn and see me. A me from a few months ago. A me in Ashton's room. My eyes widen as I realize what memory I'm in. The old me walks over to a big wall of pictures and looks over them brushing her fingers over the mini Ashton's and mini her's.

Suddenly, The door creaks open and Ashton steps in, but she is too enthralled with the pictures to notice.

He smirks and quietly comes up behind her. He wraps his arms around her middle and pulls her to him. She giggles and turn around in his arms.

"Hi, baby." She whispers seductively. He grins his famous player smirk and smashes his lips on hers. She kisses him back and suddenly she's got her back against a wall and he grabs her but. I flinch a little as she gasps and he slips his tongue into her mouth. She moans slightly and he grabs her legs, pulling them up and placing them on his him.

"You are so sexy." He mumbles into her mouth. She giggles and suddenly he pushes his hand up her shirt. She gasps and pushes him back. She lands gracefully on her feet and backs up to the wall.

"I told you Ashton, I'm not ready for that." She snarls. He sighs and drops his arms to his sides.

"Why not?" He sighs. "I'm your boyfriend! We should have had sex by now but you won't let me! Why the hell not!" He yells. The old Bliss cowers back into the wall and he takes a step forward.

"S-s-stop!" She whimpers as he forces himself onto her. Tears flow down her cheeks and he takes a step back and sighs.

"Fine." He sighs and walks to the door.

"W-where are you going?" She stutters.

"Out." He growls and with that he flings the door open and steps out. I follow him, wanting to know where he really went that night. I run in speed with his car and I watch as he texts someone. He takes a right and suddenly I see where he's going. The queen bee's house. Tamron Felt. He stops the car and runs up the driveway. He climbs up the vines on the side of the house and into a bedroom window. I scale the side of the house and look in the window. I see Ashton deep in a make-out session with Tammy. I feel tears prick my eyes and then Tammy pulls back and I know what happening. She pushes Ashton back on the bed and opens a drawer on her dresser. She pulls something out and walks to the bathroom. A few minutes later, she comes out with a robe on, tied loosely so you can see some of her cleavage.

"You are so sexy." He whispers and my heart is crushed as I realize that's what he had said to me earlier. She smirks and drops the robe. She's left standing there in a pair of thongs that are all lace. Even the front. The lace is pure black and the bra matches. It has no cloth, just lace, showing off everything. She jumps on him and I can't handle it anymore. I jump down and run like my life depends on it. I fall and suddenly everything is dark again. I still feel mom's hand in mine but I still can't move.

Then in thrown back into another memory. This one I recognize instantly as the loud music pierces my ears. But I don't understand this one. I guess all these aren't bad. I feel something weird in my legs and I look down and see they are moving towards the stairs. I lope up the stairs, confused on what's happening. Then, it all makes sense.

"Oh Ashton!" I hear a familiar voice scream out. I freeze as I realize it's Carly, the nerd of our school.

'Not another.' Athena whispers and I cry to myself. The door opens to reveal a Carly with crumpled clothing walking out of the door smiling, her makeup smudged and her hair crazy. I look into the room and see Ashton texting on his phone.

"By sexy." He laughs and she giggles as she turns into the hall. I walk into the room and see he is texting he head cheerleader, telling her to come up to the fifth bedroom on the right, fourth floor. My heart drops as she sends back a wink. Now I realize why we kept our relationship secret. Because he had at least four other going on. He clicks out of that group chat and scrolls through his contacts. He stops at my name and smiles fondly. My heart soars and then the door opens and my hope crashes and burns. Nellie, the head cheerleader, comes in swaying her hips seductively. She turns and locks the door behind her. And I realize, I'm stuck in here. I run to the door and try to open it but in this form I cant change the scene. I can't go through solid objects either. I turn back around and my heart breaks as I see two naked hormonal teenage wolves rolling around on the floor. I turn my head and try to not listen try to block it out.

They keep going for three hours and she finally gets up and puts her clothes on. then she gives him a small smile and wave and leaves the room. I follow behind her and sit out the door as another girl comes up and walks into the room. This happens a few more times until I realize he cheated on me with at least eight girls. I curl into a ball and cry, and cry, and cry until I look up and see I'm in another memory.

Old me is dancing at a party with my best friend Camry when we hear screaming. She races to where the screaming is coming from and I trail behind, already knowing what's happing. I step up beside The old me and place a hand on her shoulder. Then I realize, at that moment I had felt a small hand on my shoulder and now I now why. I look back at the middle of the circle and see a bunch of girls screaming at each other.

"Ashton is my boyfriend!" Nellie screams.

"No! He's mine!" Tamron screams. I look and see Carly curled in a ball. I look at the old me and see her eye wide. A strangled sob escapes her throat and everyone freezes, looking at her. She looks around the room until she meets Ashton's eyes. She pushes through the crowd until she stands directly in front of him. The tears flow freely down her cheeks and I see his hand twitch to wipe them away.

"How could you?" She whispers. When he doesn't say anything or even look at her she snaps. "How could you?!" She shrieks. Her hand flies up and she smacks him across his face. She pushes him backwards and he falls to the ground. She stands over him menacingly and points at his chest. "You will be banished by tomorrow." She whispers low enough the humans can't hear but loud enough that the supernaturals can. A small gasp goes trough them and his face goes pale.

"Bliss-" He starts but she leans down and smacks him again.

"You have no right to talk to me!" She screams and stalks out of the room. All the girls stand in front of him and one by one, smack him across the face. He doesn't even put up a fight. He just sits here, tears steaming down his face. I shake my head and let the darkness over come me. I feel my moms hand and then my eyes flutter open. I look over at my mom and I squeeze her hand.
