Turns out Carter brought him and Logan's mom from the immortality spell- guess the person that cares most about you seems to become immortal too. As we told Carter - he gave a bitter expression.
"No one ever cared!" He stormed out. Logan's mother looked down with an exhausted and upset face.
'You two have been thru alot" The mother sounded so guilty with each word.
"No, you and Logan have been through alot" I said touching her hand and Logan brought her a cup of tea. She sighed as she took the cup and looked up at Logan.
"It's all my fault for trusting them- I should've listened to you- your father use to be a good man. He cared about us ... but I guess something snapped.. or simply once you go dark you never feel a kind-hearted spark.." The mother's voice sounded so disconsolate that it seemed like every breath she took dead ash of tiredness flew out.
Logan hugged his mother tightly. "Let's get out of here- too many bad memories. California lets head there" Logan said as he snapped his fingers while getting the luggage. His mother snapped they both then disappeared. I snapped and I woke infront of a hotel with them by my side.
We head to the front desk but then the mother shakes her head as she points a finger to her forehead humming. As she hummed the atmosphere around us slowly started turning into fog. As the fog grew more and more she started humming louder.
In the split of seconds we stood infront of a 2 floor house. The majority of the house had glass walls . There was a huge pool too. Logan high-fived his mother. She smiles as she grows tired. Logan panics as he holds her before she falls so he catches her.
"mom that's enough magic for tonight lets get you to your room. There must be a nice master bedroom for you-" Logan is cut off by her mom smiling . A fog appears before us and we are in one of the rooms. The luggage is all gone and the house is furnished. The room had a fireplace and a huge king size bed and we see Logan's mother already resting and a note beside her.
DO NOT DISTURB dinner on the table I'll be down after a half hour nap ~Momma
Logan smiles with tears in his eyes. I smile at him as he walks down stairs to the kitchen I assume. I head out of the room and head to another room. It had a nice queen-sized bed and a nice soft cream rug in front of it. I saw a whole stack of books, a computer, painting canvas, sketchbooks and a telescope.
I head to the canvas and pick up my paint brush and pallet of acrylic colors. As I'm painting I detail the eyes and the jaw-lines.. I squint my eyes to see that it was a picture of-of my parents. I cup my eyes and feel the tears slip down.
I placed it on the wall and headed to the bookshelf. I picked out "Wither" by Lauren Destefano. One of my favorites. I peer through my favorite chapters. There's a knock on the door. It's Logan he has now a grey shirt and he has ice cream. I smile. We eat the ice cream but he's silent. After we're done he kisses my lips then bites my lip.
I wink as we both start kissing. He holds my hips as we continue kissing our lips at a steady pace. Until there's a knock on the door then , as I open my eyes I see Carter with a mad face.
"Carter what are yo-" Carter says. Wait.. that wasn't Logan?!
Before I know it I wake up and realize it was only a dream.. I wipe the sweat from my forehead..
I still felt his lips on mine and then shook the thought out.
"Logan?" I say as I head down the stairs.
I see him eating a burrito and a chiptole bag next to him.
"I thought she cooked?" I asked.
"Naw that would have token way too much energy" I hear her say from upstairs as she heads down stairs as well.
I go and take out a burrito and take a bite.
"Would you like for me to pay you ba-"
"no hehe it is my pleasure" she smiles as she eats her salad first.
I nod. After I finish eating I go and search for my phone as I hear it was ringing.
I go to see it and the caller ID made my heart sink. I answered the phone.
"Dad?" I pause slowly looking down at the pool view.
"Chance? we're sorry for not believing you..we found your sister and she was stabbed and the last thing she said was.." he starts tearing.
"MATT IS BACK!" A loud voice makes me drop my phone...I scream as I fall to the floor crying. Logan and his mother appear infront of me. Logan picks me up and hugs me.
"what's wrong?" Logan asked.
"Matt's back..your right- its.." I wipe my eyes to look at him, "it's only the beginning Logan" with that I pressed my face onto his chest screaming as he hugged me tight.
"He isn't real.. he's a ghost...he's a demon we released him from you" Logan and his mother say.
"explain the phone call that was supposedly my dad taking about what happened with my sister the night where Matt said I was next and how he tried to make me kill my parents.." I say holding him tighter...crying harder.
"Listen, I will never let him come even through that phone because I love you Chance Harbors" Logan says hugging me as he planted a kiss on the top of my head while my face was still pressed against his chest , every breathe I heard his heart beat.
"I love you too" I say facing him as he started wiping my eyes.
"I think it is best if we all were to go to sleep- its late and we have to get jobs to pay for this house. It's super cheap thanks to me but we need a resource of money I have limited money powers per 3 months so I have enough time for 6 months . We have 6 months to find a job.I love you Logan I'm going to sleep now" The mother said kissing Logan's cheek and rubbing my back. Then she left to her room.
Logan presses his lips on mine. I sit at the foot of the bed as I broke the kiss and cuddled with him as we put the tv on. With his arms wrapped around my waist him facing my back as I faced the window. I stared at the painting of my parents. Studying it closely.
"Wow it looks pretty" Logan says.
"Those are my parents" I sigh.
"No I meant your heart and who you are" Logan said pulling me closer as he kissed my ear.
"I promise not to let anything happen to you know that the curse is gone" He whispered.
I nodded as I felt my eyes close.
I woke to the smell of ashes everywhere. The house was in flames. I cough traumatically as I throw myself off the bed. I wake up Logan as I run out the room. I hear him follow behind me. The mom isn't there. Logan and I search everywhere.
As we struggle to get outside the house a part of the ceiling falls infront of us- blocking the door. Logan starts coughing as we run to a window but it shatters , aiming shatters of flash with flames toward us. One lands on my shoulder and I pluck it off as I feel the blood drip down.
Logan and I run holding hands through one of the other glass walls and hop into the pool. We swim up to the surface to see Logan's mother. She has her hands crossed. She pushes me back into the water I try to get up but feel someone pushing me down. I swallow more and more water as I try to gasp for air. Just as I was feeling myself faint- I feel someone carry me up onto the ground and pushes continually on my chest.
I gasp a load ful of water as I clutch my hair and hold on to Logan trying to find where the mother was standing.
"Mom what's wrong with you? you could've killed us. You could've killed her!" Logan yells. As I start coughing and feeling a certain liquid creep out of inside of my mouth. It was blue and gooey.
"She was the reason for the curse" The mother muttered.
"That was dad remember? it was dad's decision" Logan tried to explain.
"I don't want her here" The mother yelled.
I sniffled getting up and ruffling my shirt. I shook my head limping.
"If that's what you want fine. Even though it's your fault for getting involved with a satanist" I spit out as I turn away and start walking out of the house grounds and onto the grass, shivering in a pair of basketball shorts and a belly t-shirt.
'WAIT!" I hear Logan.
"I'm unwanted- I just think it's parents in general- I'll go back to the college it's whatever"
I mutter crossing my arms.
"If your unwanted I'm coming with you" Logan pleaded.
"That's your mother Logan- she's alive again appreciate that because you won't know if she's gonna die sooner or later" I say sighing.
" the same thing applies with you, -" He looks down in the ground will holding my hands, " I don't want to loose you Chance- I-I N-Now that I don't have to loose you over and over- but also now you could just die forever- I wanna spend every moment I can with you.." He starts to be nervous.., "the fact is.. Chance I love you" I look up at him still sniffling with tears as he hugs me.
"I-I- love you too Logan" I crack.
"AHHHHHHH!" We hear the scream of the mother. I follow Logan as he begins to run to the sound.
We see a shadow leave and Logan's mother on the floor clutching her bleeding chest as she catches a seizure on the floor. Logan cries cleaning the blood as I dial 911 from my phone in my basketball shorts.
"Hello?"
"m-miss it's an emergency!"
