Black Roses
Konnichiwa desu~! As of now, the poll will be closing soon, so if you haven't chosen a choice for Alexis, then please do. Um, I don't have anything else to tell y'all, so onto the story I guess. Also, thank you all for the reviews and new favs!
(Oh! This chapter's song is "What I've Done" by Linkin Park)
The next morning was a good as waking up to seeing Edward Elric or Naruto Uzumaki standing before you. I got dressed in a simple white shirt that had a black collar with my white platform boots, black denim shorts, a black neck tie, and my favorite black choker. I walked into my kitchen and grabbed an apple, since I wasn't in the mood for cooking anything good. I looked at the clock hanging on the wall and realized I had some time to kill before I met up with July.
"Maybe I can buy Alois that purple jacket he wants so badly, and Grell a new red jacket," I said, opening my door. I bumped into the only guy who could act more of a douche than Byakuya Kuchiki can himself, Sebastian Michaelis.
"Good morning, Alexis," he said.
"It was until I bumped into you. Everything was all shiny and that good stuff until you walked up into me," I said, faking a smile. Sebastian sighed and moved aside. I hopped down the stairs and looked for my motorcycle. When I found it, I also found a small gift bag on it. I grabbed it and Sebastian walked up behind me. I turned around and smiled at him, handing the bag back to him.
"I would either give someone else what is in that bag, or go get your money back, Mister. I will not let go of the fact that my supposed to be older brother called me an immature brat last night," I said, hopping onto my motorcycle.
"I remember what I called you and what you told me clear as day, sister. I just wanted to say-"
"That you were returning the gift? Oh thank you so much, dear brother! Now leave me be," I said, backing the motorcycle out when Sebastian stopped me.
"I believe I was going to say that I am truly sorry for what I've done and that I would like to make it up to you," he said.
"How?" I questioned him.
"I would like to buy you anything and everything you would like or need." Hm, anything and everything? Fine, I guess I can accept his apology through gifts and treats.
"Fine, I accept your apology, but make sure you have the money because we might just by the mall if I wanted to." Which I might do.
...
Sebastian and I walked around the mall, large black bags on both of our arms, walking to the food court.
"Are we going to buy anything else after we eat, Alexis?" Sebastian asked as we sat down at a table. "No, nothing else. I believe I have enough to survive me until next year, then I'll need your help again," I said, stretching out my arms. I saw July walking towards me and she placed her hands on her hips.
"How come you didn't invite me in all the shopping glory, hm?" She said, not sounding like a happy camper.
"Well, I just caught up in the glory of looking at all the things I could buy with Sebastian's credit card, that I forgot to call my bestie to come and join in on the fun," I answered July.
"Wait, You used Sebastian's credit card?! Now with that kind of money I would've bought me 50 bags of something just because."
"Then I do believe I would run out of money before you reach bag 50, my dear," Sebastian said politely, making July sneer at his comment.
"Well I do believe you have other cards on you, buddy. And if you do, I will rip out your pockets just to find said credit cards."
"And if that happens, I will get Alois and have him bug you all day, Miss Winter." July shuddered at the thought of the torture Sebastian was going to put her through. July looked my way and I just shrugged my shoulders.
"I'm gonna let ya two alone now. Bye-bye!" July ran away and once she was gone I stood up.
"I guess I'll be leaving. Just send the stuff to my house and enjoy the rest of your day, Michaelis." As I began walking away, Sebastian grabbed my arm and pulled me back into my seat.
"Stay," he said in a tone one would not dare to mess with. I sneered and stood up, walking away.
"Like I said, I guess I'll be leaving."
...
I sat on my couch, watching some good old tv, when the tv just turned off by itself. I pressed the power button, but nothing happened. I stood up and walked to the curtain that hid the sun away from shining in my living room. I moved them aside and saw a very angry Sebastian standing there, bags in hand. I opened the door and took the bags before saying, "Guess one can't even watch some good old tv without having someone else ruin the fun." Sebastian glared at me and continued to do that until I tried to close the door on him.
"I don't think so."
"I do think so, bud." I slammed the door in his face and moved the curtains back in place. I walked to my room and saw Sebastian sitting on my bed, asleep. How is it that this man can be one place, then when appears in another he's asleep on someone else's bed. I raised my platform adorned foot and kicked him off the bed, awakening him from sleep.
"Oops, sorry bout that. I guess I was so busy trying not to wake you when my foot just decided to kick you instead," I said, acting like I was perfectly innocent. Sebastian glared at me and grabbed my throat.
"I am sick of you treating me like this!" He yelled, slapping me across my cheek. Stinging, hot tears fell down my face and I looked up at Sebastian with teary eyes. "Don't you even give me that little puppy dog face, Alexis! You know better than to treat your siblings like this, and yet you still do!"
"But I-"
"But I don't care!" He yelled again, throwing me down. I cried harder and looked behind me to see Sebastian just glaring down at me with blood-red eyes.
"Sebastian, I-"
"Don't even speak. I should have never even done the things I've done to gain back your trust, because you just keep throwing them away somewhere. Have you ever thought about how much that hurts what little sanity I do have, Alexis?" I shook my head and tried to stand up, but I just fell to my knees. "I should've known better. Someone like wouldn't care for my feelings unless it was one of your little friends."
"But Sebastian, I never meant to-"
"Didn't I say not to speak? See, you don't even care to listen when I tell you something," Sebastian said. He walked past me and looked back once. "I hope I never see such an immature brat again." Once he left out the door I ran after him, trying to at least tell him how I felt. But when I reached the living room, every thing was silent except for the tv. I looked around and saw no sign of my brother. I fell to the floor and cried in my hands. "In this farewell, there's no blood and there's no alibi. Cause I`ve drawn regret from the truth of a thousand lies," I sung quietly as the tears kept falling down. 'Dream away child, that man was just someone who wants to make you feel horrible,' a voice said. 'As long as you keep what sanity you have left, then you are okay. You'll always be okay, my dear demon. Always and forever'.
~In this farewell
Theres no blood
Theres no alibi
Cause I`ve drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies
So let mercy come
And wash away
What I`ve done
I`ll face myself
To cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands
Of uncertainty
So let mercy come
And wash away
What Ive done
I`ll face myself
To cross out what I`ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
For what I`ve done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
Im forgiving what Ive done
I`ll face myself
To cross out what I`ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I`ve done
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
What I`ve done
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
Forgiving what I`ve done
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
(Na-na na na)
