I was in my room watching the guests arrive.Alex had already put on his suit.And came to get me."Why aren't you ready?"I chuckled."Because I have a whole enterance planned.I'm going to go on my own.You go down.I'll be there once everybody is there."He was confused."You go.I'll be there.Don't worry."He left and I slowly started getting ready.Black stilettos with ankle straps.Red velvet dress with a split and spaghetti straps.V neck.Great combination if you ask me.Red lipstick.Hair let down.Wavey.Family heirloom necklace that I never take of along with...Ralph's gift.And I'm ready bitches.
I turned into a flame before I walked down the stairs to the ball room.And as I walked down all eyes were on me.I walked down the stairs as a flame then turned back to my human form once I reached Baron's bistro."What do you think?"He gave me a tight hug."You actually did it."I nodded.Alex came over."That was sick!Wow.Why didn't you tell me you did it?"I smiled."Because I like surprising people."He rolled his eyes."You promised.C'mon."I promised that mmy firt dance would be with Alex.He's younger but much taller.
"What's going on?""I'm confused."He chuckled."You're always confused.Let me make it a bit more obvious.Why is the Fern family and Crooks family looking at you like that?"I sighed."Turn me so I can get a glance."He turned me and I saw the way they were looking at me."Oh it's nothing.Fern family wants me dead and Crooks family doesn't really like me.And me turning into a flame pissed them off.Big time."He chuckled."Explains a lot.Do it again.I want to see if I will burn."I chuckled and I turned.It did burn him so I turned back."You're an idiot."He nodded and we got off the dance floor and washed his hands."You don't try to push your limits again.Understood!?"He nodded.I found the first aid kit and tend to his hand in the bathroom where Mari found us."A new toy?"I rolled my eyes."Fuck you Mari."Then she tried to throw me a fireball but I caught it."Walk away now or you don't want to find out."
She chuckled."I am sick of you having all eyes on you!You're not even half as beautiful as I am.You're so annoying.I'm sick of you and the attention you steal from me!"Then she left."Who is that maniac?Is she the one who called you a slut?"I nodded and finished wrapping his hand."It doesn't matter.Let's go."But he stopped me."It matters.You are obviously upset."I sighed."I'm scared alright?Baron is graduating.Silver and Kendrick is going to be busier.And there I will stand on my own.I'm scared.I'm scared I might never be able to feel safe.And I'm fine with that.I have to be fine with that.Alex there is nothing you have to worry about.Let's just go."I left Alex there and found my grandparents.
"And I was wondering who took my book."I curtsied."That'd be me."My great uncle chuckled."Well it was a great enterance.What can you turn into?"I turned into a snake."Cool right?"He nodded in fear.I turned into a butterfly and settled on his nose.Then I flew to the air and turned into an hawk.and landed on the bistro table.Then I got on the floor and turned into a wolf."I need more space for the others."Then I turned to my human form."I like the butterfly the best.No offense."I chuckled."None taken."I spent some time with them until Baron asked me to dance with him.
"Your cousin is extremely worried.Do I need to be worried?"I shook my head."It's nothing.Relax.Alex is being a drama queen."He sighed."So...you graduated."He chuckled."Spend the Christmas holiday with me and my family if you want.They are always ready for more company."I chuckled."It's not necessary but...reply when I write to you?"He nodded."Always.You're the idiotic weirdo little sister.And...keep quiet."Then he showed me the bottle of rum in his inside pocket."Meet me at the roof?""I'll get the others and the booze I could find."He nodded and ten minutes later we were all on the roof.I told Crooks too.In case he wanted to join.
I took a big gulp."Yeah I'm good to go for the rest of the night."Alex tried to get the bottle from me."Yeah...you're not doing that."I gave it back to Baron."But you did!"I chuckled as I stood up and went to the edge."If I jump...will you jump?"He shook his head."Exactly my point."Then I jumped down and flew up as a dragon."You idiots think I actually would?"I turned into a bird and landed on Alex's head."You guys are dumb."Then I turned back to my human form.
While we were all going back to the ball room I heard Pheonix yelling at Ralph outside."This is your chance to get rid of her Ralph.TAKE IT!"It was obvious that this has been going on for a while."I DON'T WANT TO!Is this what you've been waiting for dad?I don't want to kill her!"Flames were coming over his head.Even his father was surprised."I'll do it then.I'll kill her."Then Fire Step happened."DON'T YOU EVEN DAD!"Then his dad left.
Then I rested my head back to the wall and silently cried.I went to my room for some quiet time.But not after a few minutes grandpa asked me to come down and dance with him.The whole ball room made a big circle.We danced in the middle of that circle.While we were dancing ball room doors opened with a big slam."Dad?""I'm afraid I was late because of a business meeting.Please continue."Everybody came onto the dance floor and I was there watching my grandparents drag my father to their study.
I tried to pull myself together and that's when Ralph took my hand and started dancing with me."What are you doing?""Focus on something else."He didn't even make eye contact with me."I know you heard us in the common area."I avoided eye contact this time."Uh...let's not talk.""Logical answer."And we just danced.No eye contact.
After a while guests left it was me,Alex,my grandparents and my...dad."Let's go in.You can't spend the night standing here avoiding your father Rose."I sighed."If you're staying because of me...go.It's ok.I can handle my father."He sighed."Yeah I'm staying.Go inside."We both walked inside."Hey dad."He looked at me with disgust.I held Alex's hand or I would go crazy."I came here to get you.Go pack your stuff and meet me outside."Grandpa spoke up."You can't take her if she doesn't want to go Damien!I get that you get disgusted by your entire bloodline because of our club but she is your daughter!Your own child!"
"Exactly!My child!And she will listen and respect me!"I looked at my grandparents and subtly shook my head."She's not going anywhere Damien."Then my dad turned to me and started taking the air in my lungs."I should do it.But I won't for the sake of your mother!"Then he left.Alex caught me.I was depending on him."I'm fine."
