The Glyph Of Love

Amity's POV:

Amity's POV:

Once again I woke up in cold sweat, in pitch black, my skin as pale as a ghost. This time it was different. The fact that Luz has a girlfriend didnt make me love her less, it only made my love to her ache more. I tried to get out of my bed, I almost stepped on Emira. Her and Edric slept by my bed in an attempt to protect me. I love them so much.

Once again I got up and went to my closet. I sniffed the sweatshirt I slept in once more before taking it off and stuffing it into my backpack. I wore my violet shirt and tights and the itch sack and poncho that I wear every day. I put my hand in the pocket and I felt a piece of paper, thank god it was still there.

I heard dad stomping angerly downstairs. We werent safe. I woke Edric and Emira up, and whispered: "it's not safe here, we have to go." They knew exactly what I was talking about. They sneaked to their room and packed their bags; I did the same. I packed up the essentials: a toothbrush, toothpaste, my uniform, a hairbrush, some snacks I had laying around, some other essentials and of course, Luz's sweatshirt. I heard my door crack open, luckily, it was Edric and Emira. I signaled to the window "let's go." They nodded.

I got my abomination to help us land safely, but Edric hurt his leg. Luckily Emira packed a healing potion. We started running, I ran first, and they ran behind me. I was spiraling. I was supposed to lead us. We're literally homeless. What am I supposed to do?

"Ok mittens, where are we supposed to go?" "I- I dont-" "dont question her Edric, I believe in her!" and thats when it hit me "I know!" I meant to go to the library but instead I got to a different place. Its like my legs carried me, I didnt mean to go there. The owl house. "I didn't mean to come here let's go-" "mittens, dont move or talk" Edric said quietly. From the corner of my eye I saw a griffin "we HAVE to go inside" Emira said. "fine."

I turned around and told Hootie "Hootie let us in" in a distressed face. "okay! If you answer these riddles three!" "HOOTIE WERE IN DANGER!" we all quietly yelled. God I hate that owl. He finally opened the door and we sprinted in before the creature could get us. Ugh.

Eda came downstairs and told me to sleep on the couch, I did. She gave Edric and Emira sleeping bags and they slept on the floor. I slept in my clothes, they were the only ones I had. Well, except Luz's hoodie, and I didnt want her to see that I still had it.

Finally, morning came. Eda made us stay for breakfast, which I didnt think much of at first, but then Luz came. God she's beautiful. I couldnt talk. I couldnt, because if I would, I'd burst out crying. Of course, her girlfriend stayed over the night, and of course they have matching pj's. I want to be the one in those pj's. I ate breakfast and I tried to be polite. After all, they hosted us when we were homeless.

We took the bus to school. It was torture. They were kissing and I could barely talk to Gus and Willow. I couldnt concentrate. She's too pretty. Willow felt bad for me, I think, but Gus was pretty chatty.. "Amity, I'm worried about you. Your head over heels in love with her, its not like you." I didnt reply, I nodded, but thats it. I just stared at the window and started thinking

We reached school and I blocked out everyone, I put my hood on and I went to the bathroom. I couldnt help it. I started crying. A girl I was once friends with started kicking me, and I teared up. "stop it!" a familiar voice said, but I couldnt hear it between the crying. The girl ran away, and the mystery voice helped me up. It was Boscha. "ugh," I sighed "what do you want Boscha? Isnt this day bad enough already?" "hey, Amity? I.. wanted to say I'm so sorry, I've been really mean to you and I wanted to ask.. do you want to be friends again?" seems fishy.. she's suddenly nice? "okay. I said "what's the catch?" "catch? There's no catch.." she said nervously. I repeated: "what's the catch?" "fine.. I realized that I'm gay and I need your help" "is that it? "yes! no I need your help to get closer to willow" I stared and waited for the end of the sentence "I like her" I stared at her in disbelief "I have liked her for the past three years thats why I was pocking on her I tried to pretend to be straight, but its like every time I saw her I got gayer and gayer"

Oh. My god. "of course I will help you Boscha!" she was blushing like a tomato "just please don't tell anyone, ok? Especially not Willow" "bet." I smiled at her and she awkwardly looked away and blushed, and like that, me and Boscha were friends again.

I put up with the rest of the day, somehow. I wore my glasses so that no one sees me cry, I put on my headphones and studied. Luz and that girl were sticky and gross all day, not fair, I want to be all sticky like that with luz.

Ugh. The day finally ended. Time to finally go home.

Wait, what home?

I froze and my mood levels went even lower than they were before;

the owl house.
