Enter If You Dare.

31.

**Rosie's Pov.**

"They're home."

Just that one sentence.
Had me running.
And I knew Styx felt it too.
His legs were running on his own as we both darted out the door.

I was panting as a dark green vortex slowly began appearing in front of the store.
My heart pounding hard as it opened and she stepped out.
I didn't even care how tired she looked.

My knees nearly buckled as I went to run.
When her eyes met mine they widened the moment I hug tackled her into the dirt.

"Ow.." She groaned as I held her.
Crying as her hands rested on my back.
I glared at her as she smiled apologetically, tears in her own eyes.
"Um hey there? I'm home." She gave off that stupid ass grin that earned a sobbed chuckled from me.
I helped her up as we dusted each other off.
"Hi." I greeted her as she smiled at me.
And wow.

Her hair had gotten long and the color of her eyes.
They were mesmerizing.
I mean they were hazel but they had a red tint to them now.
Was it from living in hell for a year?

"I have so many questions." I told her.
Chrys smiled guilty.
"I'm sure you do." She smiled at me.

My eyes fell onto Styx who was looking around anxious.
I tried not to smirk watching the guy who pissed me off in the beginning, sneaking up behind my guy best friends back. This devious grin on his face.
He still looked the same, except a little darker?

Kylis grabbed Styx by the shoulders, spinning him around then kissing the other in a passionate hold.
Styx glared at him as these tears streamed down the others cheeks before smiling softly.
"A year huh?" He questioned.
Kylis grinned at the other.
"Unfortunately, we had no choice in the matter." His eyes on Chrys who made a face at that.
I arched a brow.
Well that's suspicious, I'll talk to Chrys about it later.
We had a lot to talk about.

I watched her eyes leave us before they fell onto a figure behind me.
This emotion that read love filled her eyes as she walked past me.
I turned and immediately knew who she was looking at.
Stella.

Stella stood there, her leg behind the other as she stood there smiling at the other.
This smile plastering itself onto Chrys's face as she practically swoops the other in her arms, kissing the other as lovingly as possible.
"I waited for you." Stella told her.
Chrys smirked kissing the other again.
"I'm glad." She said.

Her eyes fell onto Snake, who stood there with crossed arms and a cocked brow at the other.
"Heard you were in hell, was it any worse than Cilor?" He teased fist bumping the other female who smirked showing off her fangs.
"It was brutal." She said looking at him before he brought her into a hug.
"I think I missed you the most." She joked as he smirked at her.

His smirk died as his phone rang.
He frowned stepping aside answering it.

I grabbed Chrys's hands smiling at her.
"We have a lot to talk about, including the fact you've been gone a lot longer than a few weeks or months." I told her.
She grinned with a nod.

"Uh guys? I hate to ruin the moment, but I have to go." Snake said heading towards his jeep.
Styx glared at him.
"What could be more important than this?" He snapped.
Snake made a face with furrowed brows.
He was hiding something.

"Deja is in the hospital." He said as everyone's eyes grew wide.
"We're coming with you." Chrys said tugging on mine and Stella's hands.
Willow trailed close behind me as we slid into my car.

"I get back to find out Deja is in the hospital? Is she sick?" Chrys asked in the backseat.
I made a face behind the wheel.
"I'm honestly not sure Chrissy, we haven't really kept in contact with her ever since Snake got brought back to us.. she kind of turned her back because she saw how low we treated the fake Snake, like he was the real deal." I explained.
