The song mentioned here is called "The Devil Within" by Digital Daggers. It's a really good song, and if you listen to it, you'll understand the scene more. Wow...all of the stuff I wrote above is a mouthful.
Angelica: Tell me about it…
Chapter 9…
"The prettiest smile, hides the deepest secrets.
The prettiest eyes, have cried the most tears.
And the kindest hearts, have felt the most pain."
"WHAT'S YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM?!"
They had never heard Aster curse so openly, or yell loudly like this, so this startled everyone in the room. It was very clear that he was angry, actually that was an understatement, he was furious. His eyes burned with rage, and he had his fists clenched so tightly that he would probably end up bleeding by now. Chazz was scared stiff, because all this anger was being directed towards him. If there was one thing that you should know…
Never piss off Aster Phoenix.
"Maybe if you would have kept that big mouth of yours shut FOR ONCE, we would have explained, but NO! You just HAD to say something! Maybe if you'd had actually USED YOUR BRAIN, Angelica wouldn't have run off to who knows where?! She didn't WANT to do any of that! She doesn't deserve her horrible fate! She doesn't deserve to be cursed! And she especially didn't deserve to hear WHAT YOU FUCKING SAID!"
The boy had pushed Chazz against the wall so hard that it was a wonder how it managed to stay in tact.
"Why can't you not act STUPID for once?!"
"Why…" Chazz breathed, "Why are you protecting her? What she did was unforgivable…"
Aster slammed the wall, "THAT WASN'T HER! Even if it wasn't her fault, she still feels guilty, she still regrets it!" his voice cracked, and he sounded as if he was on the verge of tears, "Angelica is a kind, caring, and bright girl! She always puts her heart into what she loves! She has talent, and beauty inside and out! So you have NO RIGHT to be saying SHIT!"
Aster grabbed Chazz once more by the collar, and slammed him harder against the wall. Jaden and Jesse managed to get a hold of the outraged boy by the arms, while Alexis was making sure Chazz wasn't hurt, and the rest were watching in shock and(for some)horror.
"Stop! This isn't making anything better!" Jaden yelled, trying to keep the silver haired boy under control.
Aster kept growling, and was cursing under his breath. But before long, he felt tears in the corner of his eyes. He shoved the two boys who were holding his arms, and ran out, hoping to find Angelica.
Jaden and Jesse were about to run after him, but Yubel appeared again, stopping them in their tracks.
||Let him go.|| the spirit assured, ||Right now, Aster is the only one who can truly open up the girl's fragile heart. But he needs to be careful…||
"Careful? Why?" Jaden felt anxious now, and Yubel sighed.
||Because she's close to breaking. Completely. Since the darker half of her is still and has been living within her heart, the darkness inside has slowly been spreading. Little by little, she has been losing her mind, what makes Angelica…herself. She's been losing her kindness, her will to care for others. But she had been fighting, that's why it hasn't seriously damaged her. But now…||
"...she can become just like that demon…" Jesse finished, and Yubel nodded in return.
||Hopefully, Aster can prevent that from happening, and hopefully, he can get to Angelica...before it's too late…||
*pant*
*pant*
She doesn't know for how long she was running, or how much more she would have to run.
*pant*
*pant*
But she had to get rid of them…
| "Why do we even bother keeping you?" |
"No…"
| "Do us all a favor and GO FUCKING KILL YOURSELF!" |
"No…"
| "MONSTER!" |
| "SOMEONE KILL HER ALREADY!" |
"No!"
| "You don't belong here...you don't belong anywhere...the world would be better off without you." |
"No! No! NO!"
| "MURDERER!" |
"LEAVE ME ALONE!"
She was running aimlessly, not caring where she was running, or where she was right now. All she cared about was getting rid of these voices, these taunting voices.
"Stop! Please! Leave me alone!"
Someone laughed, and in a second, she was in a dark void, a void that seemed to go on forever.
||It's painful...isn't it? Having your heart shattered to a million pieces by the people who you gave your trust to. They betrayed that trust, and that's always how it's gonna be...||
Angelica was breathing heavily, and she knew who the voice belonged to.
"What...what do you want now?!"
||Nothing. I just want to help you…||
"And why should I believe you?" Angelica shot back, but Korísatanikí just sighed.
||Don't you want the pain to go away? I am your other half, I'm here to aid you. And with how you are now...you need my help.|| Angelica paused. Should she really believe her? But...nobody cared anymore, and her demon half is all she has left.
The girl looked down, as in deep in thought. Just then, Korísatanikí took her form in the black void. Showing her demon wings, tail, and horns. She put a hand on her other half's shoulder, making the younger girl look up, staring right into those blood red demon eyes.
||Your heart is too soft. You wanted to make friends, find people who would care about you, or even love you. But all you got is heartbreak. You have been wasting your time caring, and protecting others, when in turn, they give you pain, and sorrow. They hurt you. Yet you would still care about them, not wanting to kill, nor shed a single drop of blood. You would value love and friendship over everything else, that's what led you to a world of hurt.||
"So…how do I stop it?" Angelica pleaded, and the demon smiled, still evil, but a bit more genuine and gentle.
||That's simple, Fos. All you have to do is give your heart to the darkness, and if you do this, you'll never feel emotional pain again. You'll be free from this torment, and we can work together, we will have the dark power combined to get rid of all of those who oppose us, and destroy those who you despise. You can do all of that, without feeling any sadness, or hurt.||
"How...how do I...give my heart to the darkness?" Angelica breathed.
||I know you've been thinking of doing this for a while anyway…|| Korísatanikí lightly chuckled,
||But I need you to end this life. End your life in this era. If you do, then when you are reborn again, you will be a being of darkness, just like me. We will be the same, and because of that, we will be merged. Therefore, you will never have to worry about your emotions getting the better of you, because the only emotions that you will have left are anger, and hatred. Maybe, even a drop of excitement for blood. But that's besides the point.||
The girl was silent for a moment, taking in all this information. A part of her was still in doubt, because this was the very same demon who killed off so many innocent people...wait...this is what she was talking about. Her heart was too weak, too soft.
"Why do you talk to me like you care?" Angelica deadpanned, and the demon replied with another sigh, and a snicker.
||Do you remember what I sang to you that day you left after what happened at the school?|| the girl blinked, but then recalled what she meant.
"Yes...I do." she said, remembering every word, and every phrase.
*A day after the school outburst*
|"But...why…?"
Angelica still couldn't wrap her head around it. She was half goddess, and half demon? Her parents weren't even human, and neither was she. Many had convinced her that gods, goddesses, and demons didn't really exist, but now that she was one of them, it was impossible to deny. And this...demon...did it really come from inside her?
||You still deny it?||
The girl jumped as she felt a cold shiver go down her spine, "I...I d-don't understand…"
The demon chuckled, ||Well then...shall I explain it to you in a way where you will understand?||
Angelica silently nodded, and in a blink of an eye, she was transported to a dark, empty void. She stood up, and frantically looked around, "Where am I?!" She demanded, and a shadowy figure formed in front of her.
||Welcome to my conscious. One that I share with you. It was created when I was, which was when all your negativity began to bloom. It really was beautiful.|| the demon laughed, ||So let me get straight to the point, I am you, the other half of you that was introduced by your father, who you should already know by now. He bestowed upon you a curse, because you had demon blood inside you, it was fitting to have you become demon. But your mother was blocking the way, because of your other side, the other type of blood, one from the heavens. So, your father decided...to create me, and when the time was right, I would fully become real. It feels great to be alive!|| the figure flew around with what appeared to be demon wings.
"No...way…" Angelica breathed, and Korísatanikí snickered at the expression. She closed her eyes, and began singing, making sure the innocent girl heard every word.
…
/I will keep quiet
You won't even know I'm here
You won't suspect a thing
You won't see me in the mirror
But I crept into your heart
You can't make me disappear
Till I make you.../
…
/I made myself at home
In the cobwebs and the lies
I'm learning all your tricks
I can hurt you from inside
I made myself a promise
You would never see me cry
Till I make you.../

/Won't see me closing in/

This hell you put me in
I'm underneath your skin/

…
/I will be here, when you think you're all alone
Seeping through the cracks
I'm the poison in your bones

*Present*
"..."
"I remember…"
"You're the devil within."
"You're my other half."
"You'll always be a part of me…"
"And I'll always be a part of you…"
||That's right, Fos. And in order for us to really be one in the same, I need you to become a being of darkness, just like me. The only thing you have to do...is end this pathetic life in this useless era. There is nothing that can be done here anymore. All life here is meaningless. Do you understand?||
Angelica took a deep breath before replying, "I...I do...I understand...Skotádi."
Korísatanikí smiled, ||I haven't heard that nickname in years, and it feels great to hear it again.|| she inched closer to the other girl's face, ||Because it isn't the same when other people call me that. Only you are allowed to give me that nickname, and no one else. In return, I am the only one who can call you Fos. Isn't that right?||
"Yeah...I know." Angelica nodded, "In my past life, you were my only friend, and so I gave you that nickname, and you gave me mine. We were...inseparable...but why did you never remind me?"
||It was never relevant.|| the demon said, ||There wasn't any reason to remind you of that until now, because of what I told you to remember, you also gained back memory of your past life as well, or one of them at least. And don't forget, I'm incapable of caring, the only exception is you, because you are my other self.||
"There's no reason for me to be here anymore…" Angelica whispered, "I'm useless. Everyone probably doesn't even care about me anymore, not even...Aster…" her voice trailed off, and she could feel herself tearing up again.
Korísatanikí was not pleased. She knew that the girl had feelings for Aster, that was the problem. And now she's more hurt than she probably has ever been, she didn't just like him. No...Angelica loved Aster Phoenix, more than she had ever loved anything or anyone before. It made the demon sick to her stomach, but she didn't show it.
"W-Why must this world be so c-cruel!" The girl shouted in a shaky breath, and the demon decided to pat her back, in an effort to comfort her. It worked somewhat, though Angelica was still trembling a bit.
||Then how about this...we can destroy this world...obliterate it. Would that make you happy?||
"Well…" the girl looked down, "I...don't know."
Korísatanikí sighed, ||Don't worry, you'll have time to figure that out. Now...let's go. You know what to do, don't you?||
"Yeah…" Angelica whispered.
The demon smiled, ||Okay, I'll be waiting.||
With that, she disappeared into the darkness, and Angelica was transported back to a certain part of the woods, but she was still in Duel Academy.
"I guess...I should be going now…" She said, mostly to herself, and started walking.
"Angelica! Angelica! Are you here?! Please answer me!"
Aster was calling out, running through the woods. He looked through every tree, and every place where she could've gone to hide. But she was nowhere to be found, it was as if she just disappeared into thin air.
"Angelica! We're sorry! Just please come out and let me help you!"
He desperately cried out for the girl for what seemed like hours, but she didn't show, not a reply, not even any sign that she was there. Aster soon got tired, and leaned against a tree, panting.
"She...can't be...gone…"
His eyes starting welling up with tears, 'Why...why did she have to go…? I just...I just wanted to…'
*crack*
Aster looked up when he heard a crack, and saw something in the woods. There was another person...a person with familiar white hair…
"Angelica!"
As soon as Aster started running towards her, she ran away, and the boy was more frightened, 'Why is she still running away?'
"Wait! It's just me! I just want to talk!"
He hoped that this would make Angelica stop, but she still kept running.
"Get away from me, Aster! You don't want to see me right now!"
Aster felt something in his stomach, 'What? What is she talking about?'
"You don't want to know!"
The boy was startled at the comment, because he didn't expect Angelica to read his mind. He quickened his pace, running through branches that stood in the way. At one point, the girl in front had done something, which made a large tree fall right in front of Aster, almost crushing him. But that didn't stop him, and he climbed over, still determined to catch up. When Angelica noticed Aster was still chasing her, she made vines come out of the ground, and a large stone wall appeared. Hopefully that would stop the boy from running after her. But it didn't. Aster quickly untangled himself from the vines, and climbed over the wall. Finally, Angelica stopped in front of a cliff that led straight to the ocean. She looked back, and found Aster stopping as well, trying to catch his breath.
"Why did you follow me, Aster? I told you to never come near me again!" she demanded, and the boy looked up, a little smiled formed on his face.
"Did you really think I'd listen?" he said sarcastically, "I'm stubborn, you know. And besides…" his expression turned into a look of concern, "I really wanted to talk more with you. I know they all saw something they shouldn't have. I know they accused you of being a murderer, and a monster. But that doesn't mean that you are one! You don't have to believe a word that they say. Deep down, I know you're someone who cares about everyone! If it were up to you, all those innocent people wouldn't have died!"
"That's not the point." Angelica said, "I can't take back what I did. I'm the one who created this demon, she is a part of me. There's nothing I can do about it."
"But that's not—"
"STOP TALKING TO ME LIKE YOU UNDERSTAND!" Angelica yelled, and Aster looked horrified, "You don't know a thing! You don't know how much of a burden this is to me! You don't know how painful it is to live with this curse every single day! You don't know how much I just want to die every day, but then realize that I can't. I hate my life! I hate that I was born! I can't get rid of my destiny, Aster! No matter how much I want to get rid of my existence, nobody listens to me! Because no one cares. I hear people every day, saying I should go kill myself! You don't know how much I wish to be able to do that!"
Tears were running down her cheek, and she started shaking, "Every day, I have to lie to everyone. I lie about my feelings, telling them that I'm fine all the time. I lie about my parents, telling them that I'm happy with who I live with. I'm always faking my smiles, my laughs, and my actions! Because if I show what I truly feel on the inside, all they would see is sadness, they would see emptiness. Some people would even try helping me. I do want people to care, but I don't want them using my problems as a burden! They might as well be carrying dead weight! I shouldn't even be able to live! I'm always hurt! I'm always being hurt by others, because the people I trust end up stabbing me in the back! I don't want to feel that pain anymore! I don't want it to keep hurting! And that's why...I agreed to do this…"
Aster felt his heart ache as he heard every word come out of the girl's mouth. He didn't know what to do. Angelica was obviously depressed, and to such an extreme level that she wants to die so badly. He didn't know what to tell her, but he wanted to help. He wanted to help her feel better, to make at least some of the pain go away. The girl had to lie about her feelings, and keep them to herself. It must have been so...so much to bear. He was processing all of these words in his mind, and even though he was on the verge of crying right there, the last thing Angelica said stuck out.
"Wait, what did you agree to?!"
Angelica took a deep breath, and looked right at Aster, while tears were still flowing, she gave a weak smile, "I didn't want you to see me do this...but I guess it's too late for that." She pulled out something from her pocket, which made Aster gasp.
It was a knife. But not just any ordinary one, it had words inscribed on the black metal, it wasn't English, nor any recognizable language. It looked ancient, as if it was thousands of years old. The designs looked as if they were made by people many years ago, it couldn't have been a knife from the modern-day world. Where did she get it from?
"This knife is very special," Angelica looked at it with a sad smile, "this was designed to kill anything. And I mean anything. You see, I'm not allowed to die until I reach over the deadline of a thousand years old, nothing would kill me until then. Long ago, people were afraid of immortals like us, so they used sorcery to create this knife, dark magic. Because of the dark magic that was needed, they put a message on it, one that only certain people can read, if they know the language." She sighed, "It says:
"We mortals are powerless
Under the gods, and thy hands.
But thou shall not know of our intelligence
Until one of them lands.
When thou shall receive this relic
You will surpass an immortal's bound.
The bound of never given death
Finally after hundreds of years
Of fearing punishment by the gods
We shall give them tears
We shall give them pain
We shall give them...
Death"
Aster was frozen, "D-Don't tell me…"
Angelica softly laughed, "This won't permanently kill me, of course. I'll just be reborn again in another five thousand years. But...I made a deal. With Korísatanikí, my other half. If I were to end my life in this time, then when I am reincarnated, I will be a being of darkness, not light."
"Why would you ever want to do something like that?!" The silver haired boy exclaimed, "You'll just become like that demon! Why would you make a deal with her?!"
"What do I have to lose?" The girl said, "Besides, if I become like her...then I won't have to suffer anymore. I won't be able to feel anymore emotional pain, and that's all I want. Because I've been betrayed so many times, I don't think I can take anymore heartbreak. And...I remember something from my past life."
"Your past life?" Aster asked, "What does that have to do with this?"
"Well…" Angelica continued, "In my past life, Korísatanikí was my only friend. I was all alone in that time, I was an outcast. When I found out my origins, we grew close, and she always had my back. But then I was murdered, because the others found out I was an immortal. So they searched desperately for this knife," she held the said object in the air, "when they did, I became the hunted. At first, Korísatanikí wanted to kill all them off, but I couldn't blame them for wanting to get rid of me. So I let them assassinate me. Of course, she wasn't happy with this, so she was always hard on me after. That's why she was always acting like that. It was all for my own good." She reached for her eyepatch and took it off, revealing her demon eye.
"And now...I owe her. So…" she held onto the knife with a harder grip, "So now I want to do this."
"B-But…" Aster breathed, "Angelica...you can't…"
"I'm sorry…" Angelica looked back at the boy. Her tears now sparkled in the rising moon, "Thank you, Aster, for everything. Even if it was for only a short time. I didn't deserve your kindness, or your compassion, but I am still grateful for it…" she raised the knife, till the tip pointed straight at her heart.
"ANGELICA!"
She closed her eyes.
"Sayonara"
…
…
…
…
…
...
'Why...Aster?'
…
'Why did you stop me?'
…
'Why do you still care about me?'
…
'Do you…?'
"Your skin isn't paper
Don't cut it"
"Your size, your body, isn't a book
Don't judge it"
"Your life isn't a movie
Don't end it".
Angelica hadn't expected Aster to do this.
But he proved her wrong.
He had run up to the girl, grabbed the knife, threw it off the cliff, shoved her, and pinned her to the floor by her wrists. And as Angelica was trying to process what just happened, she felt something drop on her cheeks. She had realized that it wasn't wet, but they weren't her tears, they were Aster's. He wasn't able to hold it in anymore, he was crying, because of what could've happened if he hadn't done anything. It hurt him to see Angelica like this, it hurt him to hear all those words coming from her mouth. It hurt him to see her doing this.
"Listen to me!" Aster yelled in a shaky voice, as more tears sprang from his cobalt blue eyes, "Don't you ever do this again! You hear me?! Don't you ever try killing yourself! Because what you said is a lie! You aren't a burden! Just because of this, you shouldn't think about ending your life! You're right, I don't understand what it's like. But I want to! I want to help you! I care about you! Please, just let me help you! I...I…"
He sat up, releasing the girl from his tight grip. Angelica also sat up, and looked at Aster in disbelief.
"Aster…"
The said boy looked at her again, taking in how breathtaking her eye was under the moonlight, "Angelica, you're not a monster. No matter what any else says. You're beautiful, and kind. If you turn into an emotionless demon, you'll lose everything that makes you...yourself. Even if people try hurting you…" he reached his hand out and caressed the other's cheek, wiping away some of the stained tears, "I'll be here, with you. When you're sad, I'll be there for you, because you're not alone anymore. No matter what happens, I'll never leave your side."
"You…" Angelica breathed, "Y-You promise…?"
"I promise…" Aster smiled, "I won't ever leave you. You're too precious to lose, you're too bright to be left in the dark. I will never hurt you like other people have. Because I don't want to lose you."
"I…" the girl put her hand on the other's that was placed on her cheek, "I don't...deserve your friendship, Aster."
"No...you don't…" he pulled Angelica closer, "You deserve more."
Angelica had practically jumped into Aster's arms once more, and the other responded by wrapping his arms around her. She had no tears left to cry, but her heart felt so...warm, and complete. This was a new sensation she had never felt before, but it was just...right. Aster was feeling the same, and he would finally express it.
Angelica pulled away a little bit from the embrace, and looked straight into those piercing blue eyes that she loved so much. She was looking inside, trying to find any hint that he was lying, but failed. Instead, she found a burning determination, and something else, something...new.
"Angelica…" Aster said soothingly, "I've felt this way from the moment I first saw you." He cupped her cheek with one hand and intertwined their fingers with the other, "I saw your beautiful smile, your sparkling eye, I heard your angelic voice, and saw your bright personality. I knew you were special. And…" he softly chuckled, "wow...I didn't even know I could bring myself out like that. Well…you know what they say...actions speak louder than words...so…"
Angelica blinked in confusion, "What do you—" she was cut off when the boy did something that took her by complete surprise, and when she felt something warm on her lips, she realized that…
He kissed her.
The girl had a bright red blush on her cheeks, and was slowly comprehending this in her brain. But by instinct, she closed her eyes and kissed back, holding on to the other's hand. Aster had moved his arm around the other's waist, pulling her closer to him. Angelica had wrapped her arms around the boy's neck, as they still kept their lips connected.
Finally, when they were running out of air, they pulled away, and looked into each other's eyes once again, as they were catching their breath.
"Angelica…" Aster smiled, "I...I love you. I love you with all of my heart. Nothing will change that."
"I…" Angelica smiled back, "I love you, too. I'll love you for as long as I live."
The girl rested her head on the other's shoulder, and sighed in content. Aster put his head on her's, and also sighed. They laid there for a few moments, just appreciating each other's presence, and enjoying their warmth. Then, something crossed Angelica's mind.
"Jaden and Jesse are probably worried about us." She said, "You think we should go back?"
"Not to the red dorms." Aster replied, "I really don't want to see Chazz's stupid face right now."
"What did you do to him?" Angelica looked up, the boy shook his head.
"I was actually about to kill him. But no, he's still breathing." Aster smiled when her heard the girl let out a laugh.
"Wow, you were that mad?" she chuckled, and the other looked back at her.
"Why wouldn't I be? His tiny brain can't understand anything, he took everything the wrong way, and made you run off."
"I guess…" Angelica smiled, "Thank you for doing that."
"Anything for you." Aster replied, and they both got up, and walked to Angelica's room, hand in hand.
Once the two got to the room, they immediately got on the bed. Angelica was already worn out, though she had just realized it now. Aster saw how tired the girl looked, so he climbed in, covered them with the blanket, and let Angelica cuddle with him.
"I'm really lucky, to be with you." Angelica whispered, "Out of all the girls you could've been with, you chose me."
Aster chuckled, "Same here, you could've easily gone out with any boy at this academy, but you went for me. And I'm glad to have your heart."
He kissed the other's forehead, as the girl nuzzled into the boy's chest, listening to the rhythm of his heart. That's how she told herself that this was real, and not some dream that would never happen. All of this was real.
"Goodnight...Aster…" she said, and closed her eyes as she fell asleep. Aster softly smiled at the angel that was in his arms.
"Goodnight, my beautiful light."
"Where do you think they can be?"
"Hopefully not dead…"
"No! They're alive! Maybe…they're at Angelica's room?"
"It's worth a shot…"
Jaden and Jesse had been back in the red dorms for a while trying to explain the whole situation to their friends, without them going on another rage or panic attack. After what seemed like hours, they decided to go find the two. So now they were walking to the Ra Yellow dorms.
"Hey Jess," Jaden said, "You think…Aster and Angelica are alright?"
"We just gotta hope, Jay." Jesse replied, though he was a little unsure himself.
When they got to the door of Angelica's room, they found that it was a little bit open. They exchanged glances, before slowly opening the door. The two boys felt themselves smiling as they saw the couple cuddled up in bed, obviously asleep and tired.
"Well...it's about time." Jesse whispered.
"They look nice together." Jaden said, "We should leave them be until they wake up."
"Yeah, and…" Jesse continued, "let's not tell the rest just yet, especially Atticus."
"Definitely not Atticus," Jaden chuckled.
They closed the door and began walking out, and as they were going back, Jesse was deep in thought, 'I wonder if I'll have anyone special like that, I mean, I have Jaden and all his friends but…' he shook his head, 'Why does Jaden always come to mind when thinking like this?'
"You okay, Jesse?"
Said boy jumped a little, "Y-Yeah! I'm fine!"
Jaden was not convinced, but decided not to push it. So they kept walking, staying silent the rest of the day.
'I wonder...can we be anything more…?'
||It seems Fos has found new love...how sweet.||
…
||Hahahaha…||
…
||Well...that's too bad.||
…
||Because once that Aster Phoenix is gone, she'll never be able to love again.||
||She'll never see it coming, and once she finds out...it'll be too late, for both of them. It will be so…much…pain...it'll be perfect.||
…
||Hahahaha….||
||Ahahahahahahahaha…||
||AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA||
Author's Note: Omg YES! They kissed! After all of that, Angelica deserves it!
Took me a while to get this chapter up cause the site was bugging out on me, it wouldn't work, so I had to wait a day and it works now! Yay! I actually thought my whole phone was screwed for a second. Lol but it works fine.
Couldn't help but put in a drop of Spiritshipping at the end there, I couldn't resist! This took longer than I had wanted, and now I got to do that project thing...dammit…
Well...Korísatanikí is not happy.
I know this was really angsty, I don't know how I can write this stuff so smoothly. It just all comes out, and with the kind of person Angelica is, it was all flowing out of me. But hey! At least there was fluff! I'm not that mean! My mom's birthday was two days ago too, so Happy Birthday mom! My birthday is almost in this month, it's in like...7 days, so yeah...that's fun! So much stuff is coming up that it's insane! It's kinda hard to keep track of it, and write my chapters.
Next chapter will not be angsty, I promise. It'll be more about the friends and the academy finding out about the new couple, a few of Atticus's weird moments, apologies, and more stuff. It'll be a lighter chapter!(that is...unless Korísatanikí wants to keep being a b*tch)
Korísatanikí: WHAT?!
Oops...
Thank you for the reviews presea221!
