Desmond and I finally make it back to the mansion and I'm glad I finally got him to laugh. At a slow, steady pace, the week passes and it's Game Night.
"It's finally here! " Gabby shrieks as we make it into the main hall.
"I don't get why you're so excited," I state as we enter the poorly cleaned and decorated room.
"I wanna see if Desmond would join our cause of you and if he does, I'm gonna corner him in a moment of truth game and make him confess his feeling for you! " Gabby replies her hands on her waist.
"Firstly, Desmond won't be joining us and secondly, Desmond doesn't see me as more than a... I'm not even a friend to him!" I reply to the ever so adamant Gabby.
"You can't deny that boy's fallen for you! " Gabby replies in my face.
I am about to speak when;
"You know, she got a point. " Tori says.
I take a deep breath as I know my story isn't as horrible as theirs but still burns a hole into my heart every time I think of it.*********POP! *I jump in fear when an ear-splitting pop sound interrupts my sleep. I am still looking around my massive pink bedroom trying to figure out from where the sound came when another is heard.Out of fear I jump out of bed only for my feet to land in a lot of pink balloons. The pop sounds continue and in fear that they may begin sounds, I grab my stuffed bunny, cover my ears and begin screaming as I exit my room."Mom!! Dad!!! Jason! Oscar! Andrew!.... " I keep screaming as I make my way down the stairs as the pop sounds won't stop."Mr. Jacob!!? " I scream again when no one replies...Tears begin to escape my eyes when my calls are met with dead silence. What's going on!?
Mr. Simon my dad's driver drops me off. I tell him to leave and that I'd call once I'm ready to come home. I take in the beauty of Harry's front porch. Harry's parents are not as rich as mine, but he did put a lot into decorating his house. A few people outside greet me and wish me as I make my way into the house. The inside looks more beautiful than the outside. I move to the backyard and find more people at the pool. My teammates greet and welcome me. I keep looking around for Harry but I can't find him. I ask his housekeeper where he is and after a little hesitation, he tells me Harry is in his room but I shouldn't bother him cause he's busy. ~yeah right! I shouldn't bother my boyfriend cause he's busy planning my amazing birthday party!!. I walk up to Harry's room. I twist the doorknob but it doesn't budge. Luckily, he gave me a spare key. I had just unlocked the door when...&nb
I smile at his words as I feel my cheeks burn. I look into his eyes and I see the moon in them. His perfect orbs acting as a perfect mirror for the moon. His eyes give the moon more beauty. I am still lost in his gaze when I feel his thumb run over my lower lip.I exhale and my lips part as I take in the feel of his thumb on my lip. He smiles at me and pulls me into a hug. "You're not alone Deborah. We're in this together," he says to me and I wrap my arms around him.Here I am snuggling with a boy who somehow has managed to make himself an important part of my life in just months, under the beautiful full moon."It seems we are both broken souls. " I say. My words muffled by his jacket on which my lips lay."Broken souls that find solace in each other," he says and my heart skips a beat. I smile as I wrap my hands tighter around him and his embrace tightens a bit too.The night slowly passes with Desmond and I talking, teasing each other ~we
Finally, the day ~or night rather comes. We four walk into the hall~ of course you know the four by now; G.T.R.S ~you know what that means... Right??Gabby has told me that it's okay for girls and boys to sit beside each other. We find seats somewhere around the center of the room. I take a seat next to some random boy and Gabby sits beside me then Tori next and Rachel on the other end.The boy I sat beside stands to do something. I know he's walked away but he's none of my business hence I don't raise my head nor look to my side. I am forced to turn when I catch someone from the corner of my eyes move to the vacant seat beside me. We are sitting on little pillows on the ground hence comfort is though. Maybe that's why the person moved.I find Desmond sitting beside me."Hey" he greets as he fully assumes the new seat."Hey," I reply casually after r
"People of course blindly believed the 'saint' and I began being segregated by people. I attempted suicide three times and was then taken to a rehabilitation center. Where I wasted away three good years of my life. Note, I was just 17 when all this began! I was let out when I was 20! It was a year after my release and I was still trying to settle down and pick up the pieces of my broken life when I heard Donald, whose dad has sent out of the country was coming back to town with his pregnant wife! " she pauses and anger takes over me. How could men be so cruel! Anger begins to boil in the depths of my stomach and suddenly I begin to react to the cold around me. Like I've said once before, my body is very sensitive to cold, hence my current mild shivering. Madre begins to speak again and warmth slowly creeps onto my cold body and I relax and lean further into the comforting warmth around me. "He was coming on a
Days had passed since Bond night. Slowly slipping to weeks and even longer months. I had began to loose all hope on ever leaving this place. Time had slipped away so fast, I don't know how long I've spent here. But I know it's a swell amount of time as my nails have grown stronger and thicker. I decide to head to my thinking spot. The lake had become my favorite place and water a close companion. I sit in a meditation position staring at the sun's reflection on the lake. Its beautiful golden color spread roughly yet beautiful upon the face of the water like an artist's choice to spray paint the water to wonder. 'Good morning' I hear loud and clear in my head and I turn around in shock. "How did you do that??" I question Desmond who has his hands in his pockets and has been standing a distance behind me since God knows when.
Halloween!? Halloween is on the last day of October! I got here on my birthday which is March 3rd. ~so I've spent eight months here!? Gabby notices the look on my face."What's wrong sis? " she questions"It's been 8 months. " I manage to mutter"It's been three years," she replies placing her hand on my shoulder and I get her point.The preparation for Halloween here actually beat my expectations. We were made to make lists of what we want, what we want to give, who we want to dress up as or what we need to make our costumes and so much more.I chose to be red riding hood, Gabby chose to dress as Mulan. She says it makes her feel stronger. Tori chose to dress as a zombie and Rachel was bold enough to dress as MADRE!!Halloween finally came and Desmond is dressed in black. A black shirt, trouser, has his hair properly gel
More months had passed, more nightmares been had, nostalgia had become a part of me, hair's grown thinner and longer, nails dirtier and stronger, soul broken and darker, liking for Desmond stronger and hope to leave this place deteriorating.I feel something drop on my face causing my face to move a little. Something drops again and my eyes twitch. Then comes another drop, and another and another, in irritation and disgust, I pull my fingers over the wet areas on my face as I lazily pull my eyes open.Sleep vanishes from my eyes and they are shot open in wild alert when I see a bowl right above my head. I sit up only to find Madre smiling eerily at me.I stare closely at the bowl and I see a drop of red liquid escape the bottom of the bowl and land on the sheets of my bed creating a small red circle. I stare at my fingers and see they're smudged with....blood!?.I take the s
