I Promise. (Damien x Reader)

Episode 16 - Crossroads

For some reason, I felt like that wouldn't be the last time I see Celine. She was mysterious- somewhat well put together. She was hiding something. You just couldn't pinpoint what. The mansion fell silent, and no one in the building knew what to do, where to go.

Darks POV:

(felt like adding a little bit for him)

I heard the fight- it was unexpected, maybe because I haven't been really paying attention to their relationship - or that I've been focused on other things- like organizing my books, or on her. I heard ____ move around in her room a little bit- she must've heard it better than I ever did. Mark, I wonder where he was during all of this.

Marks POV:

During the argument, I was helping our butler put away all the dishes, which wasn't like me. I just had the sudden urge to fix up the place, just a little bit. Most of what they were saying was mumbled as I was down a floor- but who knows. It may just be a small fight or one of those breakup ones. Celine often storms out like that usually haha.

Damiens POV:

I wanted to punch something- a wall, anything. I have never been like this- being aggressive. I'm often kind and passive- but not today. It has just been too much. What if Darkus and Mark heard all of this... pure yelling. Does it break my formal reputation? I bet everyone heard that. Even ____. Well, that's obvious- she is right next door. This will be an interesting night, hm.

Your POV:

After an hour of exploring your room- you finally decide to take a shower. You look inside the dresser, that has been filled with all sorts of overnight clothing- and you decide to grab some nice sweatpants and sweatshirt. You enter the bathroom, peeking in - making sure there's no one else in there. You turn on the faucet of the bath, it fills up slowly.

You search nearby to find some soap- that was lavender scented- and poured a few drops into the partially filled bathtub. The bath was larger than the one you had in your own shower bath mixture. It was round- like an oval, large enough for maybe 2-3 to sit in there. You watched it fill up for a few minutes- and then got undressed. You let the tip of your toes touch the water- making sure it was the right temperature- and set yourself inside it.

It was very relaxing. You gazed at the artwork on the marble walls around you. One painting had a boat alongside the bay area near San Fransisco. It seemed old- but well-loved. You wonder who painted it- as there was no autograph in the corner- or anywhere on the mural. You play with the bubbles that floated at the edge of the water.

After soaking in the luxurious tub fr a while- you decide to get out, pulling at the drain until it came loose- letting all the soapy water spill out. You step out of the bathtub- grabbing the closest towel- and wrapping it around your waist tightly.

You walk over to the long countertop that had 2 sinks on either end- with a wide mirror covering the old backsplash that was once there. You danced around- loving the whole atmosphere that was in this large bathroom. The trip that was connecting the corners of the wall and ceiling had gold and black stripes- matching the wooden boards on the bottom third of the wall.

There was a milky color wallpaper on the spare wall- but was mostly covered by the artwork. You fixed up your hair- after it dried a little. You forgot what door led you back to your room- so you had to choose. Do you go to the right door- or the left door? One has black and purple stripes- with faint outlines of roses on them. The other door has white, gold, and black stripes- some swirling around. It seems royal and peaceful.

A/N: I decided to add some pick your own adventure chapters. These won't dramatically change the story- so you can just read one- or read both. Good luck!
