We both rolled back onto the bed, and took a deep breath. He glanced over towards me and smiled. "Maybe you should calm me down more often. That was pretty great. You've got a secret side yourself. I never expected that out of you. You're pretty fun to play with, want a rematch?" I bit my lip and considered it. I had to force myself to get the words out "you have to talk to Caleb, and I'll go with you." I pulled on a sweater and stood up. I walked out of the room and shut the door. While he got dressed, I was going to go get another drink. I dragged my feet down the hallway and sat on the railing of the stairs. I slid down and landed on my feet. I went to the fridge and grabbed a half full cup. It was some type of slushed red liquid, but it tasted good. I walked into the living room and seen everyone getting ready to leave. "where are you going?" My voice came out much quieter then expected, so I had to repeat myself. Dawn glanced over, and then said "1234567, if that doesn't answer you, then you can't go." I screamed and got really excited, but then I realized Isaac was waiting upstairs to have a talk with Caleb. "I guess I can't go anyway... Where's Lexi?" Everyone glanced around and then kinda shrugged. I couldn't remember where I last saw her. "What about Caleb?" I said with my dry voice. John looked at me and mumbled "probably somewhere being a little bitch, like you." Before I knew it, I was attacking john. My hands were around his throat and he was choking. "Doesn't feel too fucking nice does it.?! I'm sure you'd rather have my hands somewhere else freak." And even with my tiny hands choking him, he managed to say "yeah down Isaac's pants bitch" and I lost it. The red wall stood taller then ever and I had no idea what was happening. I heard distorted voices and felt hands grabbing me, but I couldn't see what was happening. I only knew I had been pulled away from john the moment I could make a fist again. I wanted to protest, but I had no idea who had me restricted currently. I could always jerk away I'm sure, but the red wall was tainted with black and I knew my darker thoughts have won. Someone grabbed my hand, causing me to tense up. Familiar voices filled my ears but I was in no shape to care. I pulled hard against my restricter, managing to slip free. Sparks of pain shot through out my body like flecks of ash. Even with my vision fuzzy and tinted I can see another hand reach out and grab me, sending an icy wave through my bones. It instantly calmed me and my vision steadied once more. My first clear thought came through my mouth instead of through my head. "Who thought it was a good idea to hold me back? I want answers, now!" Even though I didn't yell, there was an odd power behind my words, drawing everyone's attention towards me. Many people had left the room, and others who I could only semi-remember replaced them. Someone spoke up, and I immediately noticed the trickle of blood coming from her nose. "Did I hurt you? Are you okay? I'm so sorry!" I couldn't accept that I had hurt one of my old friends like this. The familiar sting in my eyes comforted me as I felt the first tear slide down my face. Callista spoke up, and said "It's okay, I know you didn't mean to. You'd never do this on purpose. Can somebody get me some water and a paper towel?" I glanced over and actually looked at everyone who was still in the room. Mia, Isaac, Dawn, Lexi, Kayla, Aidan, Tyler, Caleb, Chad, Ashley, Sara, and John. I mentally shook myself. I just wanted to run and hide. I have no idea what I hade just done but everyone seems shocked, so it couldn't have been good. I laced my fingers into Isaac's and went back outside. I led Isaac down the steps and into the garage before asking him what happened. His eyes were emotionless for a second before he spoke "Well when I got downstairs I heard John say something about me, and then I seen you trying to choke him. You almost knocked him unconscious but Callista grabbed you. You were fighting her pretty hard so I tried helping but you had already got free. I don't know why, but you collapsed onto the floor and Mia ran into the room and started yelling at you. You still had a blank gaze so I yelled back at her to make her stop. Lexi had ran in destined to stop the fighting, but she was a little late. She helped pick you up. And I suppose that's when you went back to normal" I slid my hands around his back and gently ran my nail down his spine. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist, locking my ankles together. No matter what, we couldn't get close enough.
