Chapter Seven

Alec's POV

~Still three days until the change~

Insanity... she's going insane... should we postpone the change?

I glared at the vampire in front of me he was talking about her as if she was some human who is need of a straight jacket. Aria is fine, she just needs to eat and sleep. She needs me. "She whispered your name yesterday" Demetri said turning towards me, the stabbing feeling returned it felt as if someone was stabbing a hot iron in my chest. "She said 'Alec, monsters there coming. For me'" he carried on.
"I wonder what's wrong with her" Aro muttered while tapping the throne arm.
"Why don't you visit her, Alec?" Felix asked, truthfully I don't know why I haven't been visiting her. I've been to busy thinking about that kiss-and how perfect it was-and I was scared that if I see her again I might loose control.
"Alec I agree, go and see her" Aro ordered, I nodded and made my way out. I stopped to listen in outside of her door, the last time I was here I was waiting for her to finish getting ready for her birthday party. She looked breath-taking dressed up as a scary doll. I slowly lifted up my hand, took an unneeded breath and knocked on the door. From inside I heard Aria's heartbeat raise and beat uncontrollably "Aria, can I come in?" I asked softly I heard many sniffles. I opened the door and saw her huddled in the corner her cheeks raw and tearstained, her hair mattered and greasy and her once creamy skin a sickly pale. I felt my heart break in two as I took in the sight. "Alec?" she asked in hoarse voice staring at me with crazed wild eyes. Just by looking at her you can tell she's not herself.
"Yes, sweetie?" I questioned softly taking a seat next to her causing her to move further into the wall, my heart once again shattered and moved back a bit to give her space.
"She's coming" she whispered eyeing me specially (sp?) then glancing around: scared.
"Who's coming, Aria, who's coming?" I asked frantically her eyes widened as she stared into mine, her eyes frightened and quickly filled with tears.
"The one who keeps telling me to do things. The one who whispers into my ear. She's haunting me, taunting me all the time. She's coming to get me, to make me a monster. She wants to become me" she replied shaking with fear.
"It will be okay, don't worry. She wont get to you while I'm here" I stated.
"But you haven't been here" she replied.

Aria's POV

I may be going insane but I know what I just said Alec was harsh, I didn't mean it like that. It's just he promised me something the day before my birthday:

"Will it hurt?" I asked Alec, we were currently sat on a sofa in one of the TV rooms watching Harry Potter films.
"Will what hurt?" he replied glancing sideways at me before facing the TV again.
"Transformation" I answered making him turn to face me fully while pausing the DVD.
"Yes." he stated, worry pulsed through my veins and I felt my heartbeat speed up slightly.
"Will you promise me something?" I asked he nodded and I carried on "will you stay by my side?" I said while holding up my pinkie.
"I promise" he replied latching his onto mine.

'he broke his promise' she whispered into my ear I turned around and looked at the monster: she has singed black hair, white eyeballs with a small black dot in the middle, leathery pale skin and a burnt smile. She stared into my eyes and pulled her bloody knife out of her pocket causing me to whimper 'I even sharpened it for you' she smirked. "Please no stop!" I shouted as she came closer to me. The knifes blade was ready to strike, ready to scar it's next victim. She chuckled darkly before taking the knife and swiping it across my skin I screamed in pain as black blood poured out of the cut. This is the beauty of her tricks no matter how many times she cuts you, how many times she slowly stabs you, how many times she cuts your throat or how much blood you loose: you will never die. Only you can see the cuts and damage she does to you 'its all in your brain' people tell you but its not its reality, they just cant see it. The only time you would be able to see it is when you die, death from anything-the scars, the bruises, anything she caused you they show up.

She once shown me pictures of the dead bodies she has caused and they all have two things in common a stitched smile and a fancy letter J on the wrist of her left arm. 'You shouldn't squirm it makes things worse' she smirked gliding the knife over my body again. Screams escaped my lips many times while hot salty tears ran down my cheeks.

For the next two days I spent it tracing the cuts and scars, that only I can see. Alec came to see me both days he stayed with me until Aro called him away, that was when she came-to torture me. I couldn't tell anyone about what she did to me, they would think I'm crazier than they already do. Only Jane treats me the same: ignores me and when she sees me she just glares, everyone else treats me like a fragile doll that could break any minute. The last time the Monster came she told me she was planning me actual death, how she was going to get some stranger to come and kill me-since she has the power to possess people, but I cant tell who has been possessed. She told me how they were going to find my dead scarred body but it wont be for a while, she wanted to play more.
