OK, I'm typing this up right before I leave for a movie with my friends. Sorry if it's short….
Evangeline's POV
My mom and I fight. A lot. But I still say 'I love you' whenever I go up to bed, I still hug her before leaving the house.
I hugged my knees to my chest, trying to stay strong, for my mom, for me. I gently uncurled my wings, arching my back and stretching at the same time. I felt fingers brush the ends of my wings, and without thinking I leaned back into the welcoming hands. I heard a low chuckle.
"Zane?" I bolted up, and squinted my eyes, whishing him away.
I heard him laugh again. "What are you doing Evangeline?"
I squinted my eyes shut harder.
"Pretending you're not there. If I can't see you, you can't see me."
Zane laughed again. I hesitantly peaked open one eye to see if he was still here. His face was only a few inches from mine.
"Boo." He whispered.
I fell over, completely shocked he moved in front of me so fast.
"How'd you do that?" I gasped, still lying on the floor of my bedroom.
"I'm a mythical creature." He grinned sideways at me, making me automatically grin back.
"Next you'll be telling me you're busy on the full moon." I smiled, but stopped as soon as I saw Zane's frown.
"That may be closer than you would think." His voice clearly closed the matter. For now that is.
We were interrupted by Talon.
"Zane? You might wanna see this." He called from the living room.
"Can it wait?" Zane was staring intently at me, scaring me and thrilling me at the same time.
"Why don't you ask him?" Talon appeared at our door, with an arm looped around his neck.
My breathing became labored when I saw the knife pressing the delicate skin of my twin's throat. Just then the rest of whoever was attached to the arm holding my brother hostage appeared.
"Hullo Puppet." He grinned wickedly at me.
Sorry if there were mistakes there, I'm typing this at night and my parents don't know, I'm scared to death they're gonna come down and find me…anyways, review please! You guys rock my sox!
