7 Heaven's

Chapter 2

* UNEDITED*

'I abhor having this weakness, this condition which stops me from exploring. But I am not going to let it overpower me, I must be strong, I must win this battle. It's just perfume. They are lovely! no harm' Nevaeh kept saying it in her mind with her eyes shut. She took small steps and with every step she felt weak. All she heard was Alexis telling her that it was not a good idea.

She woke up and sat up right panting, as if she were escaping from a nightmarish situation. She was anxious wondering what had happened and why was she back home. She was on her bed while her mother sat in front of her dozing on an armchair. She looked so calm sleeping that she almost looked like a statue. Strangely at that moment Nevaeh realized that she looked so much like her mother. And she kept thinking about whether or not she cared for her. But she was sitting there with her in the middle of the night.

" How are you feeling now honey?" Lauren asked her as soon as she woke up and saw Nevaeh looking at her, though Nevaeh looked away immediately.

"I'm fine. But what happened?" quizzed Nevaeh secretly hoping she did not react to the perfumes. "Must you really ask this when you know what you got yourself into!" fumed Lauren looking directly into Nevaeh's eyes.

"Mom please... tell me what happened? did I have a reaction?" pleaded Nevaeh, checking her hands for any red spots or allergies. "You passed out.... even before entering the store!" Lauren explained trying her best to stay calm.

'I wonder what she would do once she goes to Toronto' Lauren thought letting out a huge sigh.

"How do you know we dropped by the perfume store?" Nevaeh asked pedantically.

"Alexis told me, that poor soul. She had to bring you back home, she was on tenterhooks." Lauren huffed walking closer to her to check for any allergies. Nevaeh let out a sigh of relief as she did not have any allergic reaction.

"And why didn't you tell me Alexis knew how to drive?" Lauren divulged. "You never asked me ,so I never intended to give away unnecessary information." reasoned Nevaeh.

Lauren left without arguing further as she got a call and it had been a while since Nevaeh's phone kept buzzing. Nevaeh quickly grabbed her phone, and of course she knew who it would be. Alexis legit spammed their chat room with voice messages, texts and emoticons.

Alexis and Nevaeh's chat room.

'Hey heaven!!!

Hey are you alright??

You freaked the shit outta me.

What on earth were you trying to do?

Get yourself killed!

If you desperately want to be killed, just ask me! I would happily do the honor.

You better not move out of that bed!

Or you know what the consequences will be!!

You need to REST! I will come pick you up at 7:00 in the evening! :") '

Nevaeh could not help but smile at the messages from Alexis. after replying to Alexis, Nevaeh checked her mail box. To her surprise she had one mail from Reperson University.
