Summary: The secrets out and the summers over. But can the school go back to normal when your best friend is Imprinted with your supposed worst enemy.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! New story! The facts are a bit off, Stark is way to cool to be put out by the light so for this chapter he don't half pass out in the sunlight. There may also be some unintentional OOC throughout the whole story.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused. :P
This isn't planned or beta-ed this is all my own unedited work apart from the disclaimed.
Enjoy
Chapter 1
Whispers in the Dark
Zoey's POV
I opened the door a crack, it was unnaturally dark and although no one had told me too I didn't say anything. Before I finished opening I pulled out her phone, it lit the small space I'd paused in. I re-read the massage I'd received earlier in the day;
Your room is out of bounds,
Coming out will be strangled sounds,
Your curfew will break at nine,
Though by then you should be carrying wine
Love you always S x
I had spent the majority of the night/day stalking Damien as he finished planning lessons that started the next day. He no time to persuade after he told me he was busy, I went all whoop-your-ass High Priestess on him and he unwillingly read the poem. After reading it aloud several times he gave me a look that said 'did you really need to ask?' and said,
"'Your room is out of bounds' you can't go in your room. 'Coming out of it will be strangled sounds' if you walk past you'll hear funny noises. 'Your curfew will break at nine' you can go back in your room at nine. 'Though by then you should be carrying wine' you should have got bored and found wine to take back to your room by nine. What was the problem with that?" he sounded slightly rub-it-in-your-face jeesh; he spends to much time round Aphrodite. I said thanks and turned away to find Stevie Rae or, the Twins or someone less busy, but I ran into Jack at the door.
"Z!" he said breathlessly, "There are some weird noises coming from your room." He scooted round me and slipped an arm round Damien's waist who was still perched at the edge of his desk.
"I know, Jack. It's Stark, I think." Jack gave me a funny look then turned his attention to Damien. I took it as a dismissal and left the room. The rest of the day I did nothing, I had my lessons planned already, Stark was 'engaged', and everyone else was busy. When 8:30 arrived I took off from my classroom to the kitchen where I 'borrowed' some blood infused wine and a pair of wine flutes. I was excited to see what he had planned. I jogged to my room, the hallway was silent and no light shafted through any of the door frames. I slowed to a walk and tiptoed to my door, turning the door knob slowly whilst checking my phone illuminating the small space around me.
I took a deep breathe and kicked the door open. Immediately I gasped, the room was dim; there was a quintet of candles clustered on my black lace draped dresser. There was a temporary gothic chandelier hanging from the ceiling which too had five candles resting on its rungs, these were the only sources of light. On my bed the creamy bed spread was replaced with a deep purple set, and perched comfortably on the end of my bed was a shadowed figure that was holding a guitar shape object.
Hearing my gasp his head flicked up and Stark raised his right arm and began playing his guitar. I wasn't familiar with the tune but it sounded beautiful being strung out, especially by Stark. Then he begun to sing,
Despite the lies that you're making,
Your love is mine for the taking.
His voice stared off soft and quiet,
My love is,
Just waiting,
Too turn your tears to roses.
I waltzed across the room and perched on the bed next to my Warrior his soft voice kept the same harmony as the guitar. He took a hand off the guitar to plug a wire into the bottom, the sound amplified around the room as he struck a loud chord. He paused for a loud introductory solo,
Despite the lie that you're making,
Your love is mine for the taking.
My love is,
Just waiting,
Too turn your tears to roses.
I will be the one that's gonna hold you,
I will be the one that you run too.
My love is,
A burning, consuming fire!
His fingers continued to strum the rhythm, while he stood up and face me his eye smiling for his mouth which began too sing again,
No,
You'll never be alone!
When darkness comes I'll light the night with stars,
Hear the whispers in the dark.
No,
You'll never be alone,
When darkness comes you know I'm never far.
Hear the whispers in the dark,
Whispers in the dark!
He bent down on one knee and bowed his head over the guitar. I expected him to produce a ring but he didn't, though his voice was a special enough sediment. I reached out too put a hand on top of his head. His hair felt soft and smooth, it was naturally flat and the brown reminded me of chocolate, though it was slightly darker. He tilted his head back a fraction so our eyes met as he whispered thee next verse directly at me,
You feel so lonely and ragged,
You lay here broken and naked,
My love is,
Just waiting,
To clothe you in crimson roses.
Although I knew he was singing about my feelings for Kalona I still felt special and I couldn't help but grin,
I will be the one that's gonna find you,
I will be the one that's gonna guide you,
My love is,
A burning, consuming fire.
I stood up, as did Stark. We walked to the window together though he was still strumming his guitar, with the leads trailing behind. I stood at my window and drew one curtain so the weak half daylight illuminated my face; Stark took his place behind me standing a close as he could with out knocking his beat. It seemed like he was whispering in my ear,
No,
You'll never be alone.
When darkness comes I'll light the night with stars,
Hear the whispers in the dark,
No,
You'll never be alone,
When darkness comes you know I'm never far,
Hear the whispers in the dark,
Whispers in the dark.
His voice whispered sedately,
No,
You'll never be alone.
When darkness comes I'll light the night with stars,
Hear the whispers in the dark,
No,
You'll never be alone,
When darkness comes you know I'm never far,
Hear the whispers in the dark,
Whispers in the dark.
He stopped playing the guitar unclipped the strap and cast it aside. He looped his arms around my waist and rested his chin on my shoulder whilst whispering,
Whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
He finished the song almost silently; then kissed the base of my throat. One tear ran down my cheek, I caught it automatically whilst sniffing unattractively.
"Beautiful." I whispered. He laughed quietly,
"You, or the lousy singing?" he asked sarcastically. I didn't laugh; the past 4 minutes had been the most amazing of my life.
"That singing was the most beautiful sound I've ever heard." Stark laughed in disbelief. He kissed my jaw until I met him with my lips, before whispering in my ear,
"Anything for you, my Queen."
Sooooooo?
Any goooooood? Any Ideas?
R&R for anything you can think of Praise and Crits welcome!
Flaming isn't!
Ohhh and the song was Whispers in the Dark by Skillet! So I don't own that either!
