Fatal Redemption | J.J.K.

"I love you"

PAIGE;
I jolted awake and sat up. Why is this happening to me?

Was it really my fate?

Rocket looked up at me from his spot on the foot of my bed. I was breathing out trying to catch my breath.

I put my head in my hands and closed my eyes.

I didn't want to have those dreams anymore. I was slowly becoming haunted by them, I can't even look towards the summit anymore.

I used to love that place, it was the only part of town that I liked.

I shook my head and looked at the time, it's always 4:38 when I wake up. I heard rummaging around in the kitchen, it was my parents.

I tried to be quiet as I decided to get ready for the long day ahead of me. I wanted to take a long hot shower to wake me up.

An hour passed as I was getting ready for the first day of school.

I decided on wearing black skinny jeans, a white flowy shirt and a pink cardigan with white chucks.

I left my hair down and braided a strand pinning it back. That was sort of my go to hairstyle.

I grabbed my black nike bag that had some notebooks, folders, and a pencil from last year. I just got a few things before I received a syllabus with what I will actually need.

I put on deodorant and perfume before leaving my room. I went downstairs and saw Cole and Lucas.

Mom was making breakfast as the boys were eating. "Morning" I smiled at them.

"Morn- whoa! Look at you" mom said fanning herself with a spatula.

I smiled, I loved her so much.

"Here, it's your favorite," she smiled handing me my green smoothie.

I set down my bag and drank it, it was delicious. I finished it and thanked her.

"So I'll drop off and pick up Cole from school. You guys can just come back after" mom said as we nodded.

"I'll see you later Coley" I smiled and kissed his cheek, he blushed and nodded.

I kissed mom on the cheek too and left to go pick up my best friend.

I grabbed my keys and walked out the door. I drove a matte black Jeep Wrangler, it has always been my dream car.

I put my bag in the back and got in the driver side. I turned on the engine and buckled up because safety is important.

I pulled out and drove to my childhood friends house, Xavier.

—

I parked in his driveway and got out. I walked up to the front door where only the screen door was open.

I peered in and saw Xavier and his dad sitting at the table, going over some part of the Bible.

"Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord. Now, when a wicked man dies, his expectation shall perish. And the hope of unjust men perisheth." His dad spoke.

Xavier noticed me, I stuck out my tongue and he chuckled.

His dad thwacked him on the head, "Ow" he whined.

I chuckled and his father, John saw me, "You get away now! Go on!" He said as I stepped out of view trying not to laugh.

"Come on, she has to take me to school!" Xavier told his dad.

"We have to finish these. Okay fine, we'll do them tonight" John said, I felt bad for him

"Dad, you know what happens--" Xavier started walking towards me, when his dad cut him off.

"Xavier, where are you going without kissing your father? What is wrong with you, boy, huh?" He asked as he kissed his father.

I chuckled, "Now, you be good" his father said as Xavier walked out of his house.

I began walking to my car, "So is he a good kisser or what?" I asked with him following.

"Shut up!" He said opening my car door, "My father has officially flown that extra bat-shit mile since Mom died" he threw his stuff beside mine.

I opened the driver door and sat down as I listened to him. Once he starts, he can't stop.

"He thinks the end of the world is coming
because all these natural disasters in the news. It's like, how does loving Jesus make that man so crazy?" He asked as he got in.

I chuckled as I turned the engine on.

"He damned my momma to hell so many times, I bet she drank just so she'd get there quicker" he said as I shook my head.

I loved it when Xavier would rant to me about his father. We began our drive to school as we listened to the radio.

"Did you hear that the Bangtan boys are back?" He asked.

I chuckled, "The who?"

"The Bangtan boys. They're originally from Korea, but their ancestors lived here a long time ago," he answered without missing a beat.

"They moved back here, recently" he added.

"Why would anyone want to move here?" I asked, I hated this town.

"I don't know but what I do know is that my father despises them. He thinks they worship the devil, their ancestors never took part in any religious activity the town held" he spoke.

He seemed to know a lot about these 'Bangtan boys'.

"They'll be the first generation of Bangtan anybody in Silvertons seen in almost 20 years" he added, "And one is going to our school"

How does he know all of this?

I shrugged it off and focused on the road.

We finally made it to hell. It still looked the same, it was just the people that made it different.

Silverton High school.
