Heart Shaped Candy

The devil is real. And he's not a little red man with horns and a tail, he's beautiful. Because he's a fallen angel and he used to be God's favourite.

***********************************

To me, life was simple. Actually I can sum it up in one word. Bullshit. But that's what all teenagers think right? Its just a faze we all go through, it'll blow over. That  is just something parents say to convince others that their children aren't completely what they want them to be. I mean from this point I could go on forever about how life isn't what society claims it should be and that norms are just patterns developed over time from an already corrupt society. Like, how can we say that the way we live life today is the way we have to when we hardly understand how our own works. All I'm saying is at the moment as a species we know way to little to have these lines drawn, of how you should be, what you should do. As I mentioned before it's bullshit and I have done with it for a while now.

Moving forward. It's not like my life is crap, I have doctors for parents, who are happily married. I have two amazing best friends, Becca Thomas and Jade Price. Granted schools not perfect but that's reality.

My life could be considered great by a lot of people, and I appreciate it. Its just, unlike most oblivious people I'm aware of the fact that life is a lot more than the formulated fairy-tale where you fall in love and get married straight out of high school, become a lawyer and have babies in a perfect white picket fenced house.

Sure you live to tell the tale. But whats the point? Not trying to be doom and gloom here, but we all die in the end why not make the most out of life? I believe the only reason we are brought up to believe in these values and rules to live by is to keep us in check and controlled. Though I know there's that one thing we would all happily live that life for. Love. Something I don't believe in. And yes, I have had a past with it. But I honestly believe its not true, its a big thing humans made up to sugar coat life. Love is suppose to over come anything, it doesn't.

So, in the end why live life the way society claims you should. Be crazy, do what you want to do. Because when you get to the end of your life it's best not to have regrets and though you may have disappointed a few people on the way at least you can feel content knowing you wouldn't go back to change a thing.

It's just as simple as that. And as soon as I came to that conclusion I stopped crying and felt mostly numb. Which was wonderful.

So as I walked through the doors of high school, junior year, with a cherry lollipop in my mouth, my attire screaming unstable whilst playing Candy Crush on my iPhone, I was as close as I could ever get to happiness.

Until five bitches rammed past me with the force of a freaking stampede.

I stumbled and barley stopped myself from hitting the ground. I couldn't say the same for my poor lollipop though. "Who the fuck-" I yelled as I spun around. Only to be faced with an angel, not even putting it dramatically. His perfectly gorgeous face stood about 20cm away. And those eyes, god those deep, almost black blue eyes. I composed myself and noticed he did the same.

"The fuck?! Watch where your going!" I yelled, turning round to leave before I said something really weird and girly.

Only a strong hand grabbed my wrist and spun me back, "You should watch were your going. Some people could be indecent about it." He smirked, giving me a cold stare before turning and walking away.

I watched as the group proceeded on, as though bumping into me was simply a waste of their precious time. I shook my head smiling in a way that was in no way considered sane. No one, I mean no one, has ever challenged me in my whole life. And by god will I take it.
