Unexpected | My Inner Demons [SHORT STORY]

'What am I going to do?' I pondered to myself as I sat on the comfortable bean bag chair that laid in my room.

It's been years since I've seen his face... now that I suddenly remember, how will I manage to live with him now that they're here?

I groaned loudly out of frustration, sitting up and walking around my room, pacing back and forth, having both of my hands have a grip my head in frustration.

"Rhys, what is the human doing?" I was too focused on my thoughts to notice the two damos, Noi and Rhys, staring at me as I continued to pace around the room.

"It seems that the hum- Cora, is in question with herself? I do believe it may be about her and Pierce." He whispered quietly to the light-pink headed boy to his left, staring intensely at my moving figure.

"Do you think she'll be okay?" Noi asked, turning towards his dark blue-horned friend.

"Most possibly yes Noi, but in time, I do hope Cora and Pierce work things out." Rhys sighed. Glancing at my frustrated expression once more before walking out of the doorway, Noi quickly trailing behind him.

"GET OUT!" A shout exclaimed, as I sat up quickly.

"Who woke me up from my nap!"

"CORA!" Ava screamed, as I groaned.

'This woman, I swear'

"I'm coming" I grumbled, slowly getting onto my feet and making my way out the door.

"CORA-"

"Ava shut it! I'm coming!" I yelled at her, speed walking into her room.

"What the hell is your-" I froze, making eye contact with Pierce quickly before looking away, watching as Ava sat in the tub, face red, and covering herself with the bubbles in the water, and her hands.

"Help!" She managed to squeak out as a small grin plastered on my face, which only grew as I began to laugh.

"T-thats n-not funny! Get them out p-please!" She begged.

"Let me just savour this moment for a minute, this is too good." I sighed, smiling as I wiped a tear from my eye, she huffed, mumbling to herself.

I shook my head, before turning to look at the group of boys.

"If you don't get out of here, I swear I'll-"

"What? All you've ever done was make threats." Asch challenged, I sighed.

"And you have too." I remarked sassily, smirking when I had realized I had gotten under his skin. His anger showed clearly.

He growled loudly. Good, I thought.

"We're leaving, we're leaving!" Leif cried out, dragging Pierce out by the arm as Asch ran wide eyed, and Rhys teleported out of the room.

I walked to the door, shutting it, before slowly turning around towards Ava.

"Cora don't you dar-"

I giggled, falling onto the floor as I once again bursted into laughter, Ava eventually laughing herself.

"Ava you're so lucky you had bubbles!" I exclaimed, grinning humorously at her.

She sighed in response as I giggled once again, looking at her once more before leaving the room.

"Okay, first things first, and this goes for all of you. If we're going to be 'your' prisoners, we're going to need to lay down some ground rules." I stated firmly, looking over the group of boys, except for one.
