Miracle Twins (Sequel to The Other Twin)

Chapter 16: Enemies Confront

(Willa's POV)

My family is so irritating sometimes, why can't they understand that I need space? It is driving me crazy with all of their questions and queries. I.... I love my family. They are just concerned... why am I feeling so... angry?

"Willa?" a voice says behind me and I turn.

It was Jakob. I fought the urge to vomit and punch him in the face.

"What do you want?!" I spat, and he took a step back.

"Willa... I really am sorry for everything. I had no idea that it was hurting you that much. I... I want to patch things up between us. I don't know about you, but I don't think I can live for all eternity with you being mad at me."

I lifted an eyebrow and chuckled darkly, "I don't care, Jakob. Leave me ALONE!"

Jakob flinched as my voice rose. He looked genuinely sad and I huffed unhappily.

"Look, I am sorry, Jakob. But I have been over you for... a hundred years? I think, maybe longer."

"Willa..." Jakob moved in front of me and took my hands in his.

I stared at him as he carefully plotted his next words. I could feel my temper boiling just below my skin and I tried taking deep breaths to calm myself down.

"Are you sure you're over me?" Jakob asked finally.

"What?! Uh, yeah! I am. You were too pushy, and I told you multiple times to back off, but you wouldn't," I felt my nostrils flare and Jakob rubbed the back of his neck as he dropped my hands.

"Then... why were you so upset with Tad when he destroyed the dimension I was stuck in?"

"Because... that was then."

"Will told me about what happened over the summer. You got super mad with Tad and that's why you wanted to stop him."

"Alright, first off, I did it to help a young demon named Jenna. Second, I was upset because... you were a big part of my existence all those years ago. But now you are here, and not dead... and suddenly everything is weird."

Jakob looked back at me with a playful glint in his eyes, "Well, we are demons, so..."

"Stop talking."

"Right. Sorry."

I started to walk again, my anger was settling, but I could still feel the warmth under my skin. Jakob jogged to catch up to me and silently walked beside me.

"What do you want? Go away," my voice was stern as I continued to stare ahead.

"Nothing... I just want to be with you right now. I won't say anything, I just want to be in the moment with you."

My jaw flexed a little as he said that; my stomach suddenly reminded me how I had not eaten yet, but I ignored it and continued to walk with my head up and eyes forward.

(Kill's POV)

I am so BORED. After our talk this morning, my brothers decided to do their own things and Willa still isn't back. The TV is boring, nothing interesting is on and my laziness is keeping me on the couch. I want something to do but nothing sounds fun... Maybe I could go terrorize the Pines Twins... or... A smirk spread across my face as I walked out the door and to my dear Tamma's house.

I knock on the door and a stoic Tamma answers the door, "Hey!"

"No," Tamma shut the door.

I stood on the doorstep for a second. Did she just... close the door in my face? Well, this is certainly more fun than sitting on the couch. I smiled as I knocked on the door. Tamma opened the door again.
