Disclaimer: Ive done this and dont know why... so yeah you get the idea by now .. I hope.
After Evans stormed away, and Scarlet ran after him, Jett started to get woozy due to pain. He needed my help just to get off of the floor. I got him to his couch, laid him down, then went to go get him a cold washcloth to put on his forehead. I gently put it on his head and held it there for him. He looked up at me with his reddish-brown eyes, he looked like he was holding back tears. I pulled him into an embrace, he winced in pain, but he didn't push away.
"Don't take this as he doesn't like you, he does, it's just been a tough time recently." I needed to break the silence. I let him go, laying him back down on the couch. He looked so broken and in pain. I can't believe Evans did that, but I did just tell him I may be pregnant with Dominic's son's child, that seems like a good reason to be angry. But that's no reason to beat the shit out of him. I really worried about Jett, I don't really know how he is dealing with the whole being a father thing. I leaned in and kissed his cheek, he returned the gesture. We looked into each others eyes for what feeled like an eternity. The staring was ended by a sharp kick in my side. I screamed out in pain.
"What's wrong?!" Jett asked, sitting up fast, and then wincing in pain. He tried to sit up a bit slower, not to be in as much pain. "What happened?" he asked worriedly.
"This fucking baby is hurting me." I replied sharply. He put his hand on my stomach to calm me down, it worked. I put my hand over his, reassuringly. I see a tear roll down his cheek. "What's wrong? Do I need to go get some pain medicine?"
He looks up at me, with tears in his eyes, "I'm gonna be a father?" I nod my head. "I'm a father." He smiles, tears still in his eyes. He kisses my stomach, and then looks back up at me. He smiles that smile that makes me forget about all that just happened, the fight, everything. I kiss him with full passion, I'm not sure if it was the hormones but I expressed my love either way. I lay next to him, hands still together on my stomach and we lay there for what feels like hours, but it is all interrupted by a knock at the door. I look over at Jett, who has fallen asleep, peacefully. I remove his hand from my stomach and stand up, trying not to disturb him. I walk over to the door and look through the peephole, its Obsidian. I open the door.
"Obsidian? What are you doing here, this late at night?" I was genuinely curious. This young, creepy, fortune-telling boy was showing up at Jett's door this late at night, can't mean anything good.
"It is to my understanding that you have deciphered the card." He walked in the house, and walked over to Jett, kneeling down next to him. He looked up at me. "I'm not too late, good." He stood up, walked over to me, grabbed me by the arm and dragged me to Jett's bedroom. "Stay here, don't move, I'm gonna grab Jett and bring him in here, and I want you guys to be a quiet as possible, ok?" I nodded my head, he left. I looked out the door and saw him pick up Jett. This 14 year old boy just picked up my 17 year old boyfriend like he was a loaf of bread. He brought Jett into the bedroom and laid him down on the bed. He looked at me, and put his finger over his mouth, shushing me "Don't leave this room, no matter what happens, ok?" I nodded. He walked out of the bedroom and closed the door as he left.
What is this kid doing? I asked myself. I glanced over at Jett, who turned to the side, burying half his face into the pillows, I quietly laughed to myself. I then heard a knock at the front door, then I heard Obsidian talking to someone, but I couldn't make out who it was through the closed door. I moved closer to the door and laid down, trying to see under the door to try and make out who it was, but I had no luck. I got on my knees, trying not to strain myself too much. All of the sudden, the conversation started to get more and more aggressive.
"I told you, they aren't here!" I heard Obsidian yell. The other voice said something that I couldn't understand, damn he's being too quiet. I then heard a thud, I went to go open the door, but Obsidian's words rang through my head. "Don't leave this room, no matter what happens…" I can't just let this kid get hurt by whoever this person is. I opened the door, just a crack. The first thing I saw was Obsidian collapsed on the floor. There was a person's hand grabbing his shirt collar, my eyes traveled up the arm, to the person's face. It was Dominic! He raised his fist and punched Obsidian in the face. I screamed, but before the scream escaped my mouth, a hand covered my mouth, I turned to see whose hand it was, it was Jett's hand. He had one hand over my mouth, the other holding his stomach. He was serious, but he was in pain. He moved his mouth close to my ear, and whispered,
"Both you and I aren't in any shape to fight, you know that. I don't know who this kid is, but he is trying to save us from my father." he peeked out the door and his eyes widened. I looked out the crack to see Obsidian standing up, weapons in hand. He had two maces in his hand and was attacking Dominic. Dominic was dodging each attack, but I noticed that he was getting tired of ducking out of the way. But Obsidian didn't seem the slightest bit phased by the fight, or the punch in the face. His eye had already started to turn blue. Why wasn't Dominic fighting back, I thought, wait, I don't care, Obsidian was winning!
"Stay away from my friends!" Obsidian yelled, "I don't care what you say, they are my friends!" With each word he yelled, the stronger each hit got. He landed a hit to Dominic's side, which made Dominic kneel down in pain. Obsidian stood over Dominic, mace at the ready to pound his face in. I stood up, opened the door, Jett grabbing at my waist, but it didn't stop me.
"Obsidian, stop!" I ran over to him, holding back his arms, where I noticed that he didn't have weapons, he was a weapon! His arms were maces. I let go of his arms, and stepped back. He saw my face and his weapons turned back into hands, his face went from anger to fear. Dominic looked up at me and smiled, he went to stand up, but Obsidian's attention turned back to him, he kicked Dominic square in the stomach. Dominic fell on the floor, grasping his stomach in pain.
"I want you to leave. NOW! And if you ever return while I'm here, I won't hesitate to beat the shit out of you. Now, GO!" Obsidian shouted. Dominic stood up, holding his stomach in pain, opened the door, and left. Obsidian then turned to me putting his hand out to try to comfort me, but I backed away.
"HOW COULD YOU DO THAT!" I screamed, putting every ounce of anger I had into my voice, "YOU CAN'T JUST TRY AND KILL A PERSON LIKE THAT!" He looked at me like a puppy that had just been kicked, he was so innocent looking. I realized how angry I was toward a kid who may have just saved mine and Jett's lives. He looked at me, fear and pain in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I saw this happen and I couldn't let it. I had to intervene." I stared at him, confused.
"What do you mean 'saw it happen'?" I was very confused at this point, I was starting to get worried about what him meant by this.
"Well, I'm not a normal kid."
"I could tell that when your hands went from weapons back to normal heads. Again I ask, what the fuck did you mean when you said you 'saw it happen'?" I was starting to get angry with him. I didn't know what to do but, I wanted him out of my house. This little shit had come into my house, and... Oh poor little kid came to my house, saved us, and now I'm sitting here scorning him for it. I look at him, and he is trembling in fear. I lower my voice. "What do you mean by you 'saw this happen'?"
Before he could explain, Jett slowly stumbled out of the room. I looked up to see what was going on and I see his eyes burning with fury. "You just let my father, the person who has caused us so much strife, waltz out of here without batting an eyelash." Jett's voice was filled with anger and pent up rage. I felt my heart rate quicken.
"Jett, I already messed up the future by intervening here. Killing a person? That would completely alter the course you two are on, and not for the better." Obsidian's voice was shaky, Jett was scaring him just as much as he was scaring me.
"I refuse to believe that, there is NOTHING good that can come from him. Now, I'm going to excuse myself before I do something rash." With that, Jett was out the door. He slammed the door hard; it made us both jump. I felt myself start to shake.
"I-I'm sorry for him. Just please continue, I'm still quite curious to hear your explanation." I try to bring the conversation back to some form of normalcy. Who am I kidding? There is nothing normal about today.
"Well," he starts off, no longer trembling, "I don't really know when it started, but ever since I can remember, I have always had this glimpses into the future. That's how I knew about the babies... Oh no." He looks down, then, it suddenly hit me, what he just said.
"What do you mean, babies?"
"Well... There's not just one. There's two."
"Wait, so you mean...?"
"Twins." He completes my thought. I get all light headed, I have to sit down to process all of this. I sit down, and Obsidian follows me. What do I do? Worse, what do I tell Jett? He's gonna freak. Did he hear Obsidian say that? He never left the room after he stormed out, the door was closed, so he wasn't there, thank God. I'm still trying to figure this out myself.
"Ivory, I need you to talk to me, please."Obsidian snaps me out of my confusion. I look him dead in the eyes.
"Jett, can't know about this, he will freak out. I will tell him at one point, but not tonight, too much has happened." I say to him.
"Ok Ivory, this is your information to tell, not mine. Just be careful. There is an order to this world and if not followed… Let's just say it isn't pretty. Don't let my secret be known, all hell could break loose and I don't really want to deal with that. Oh and I almost forgot to tell you-"
In that moment the door swung open. Obsidian immediately sprung into action, whipping his hand, which was already a mace, around, intending to strike the intruder. I looked to see who it was and I nearly fell to the floor. Obsidian's hand mace was lodged into the wall, centimeters above Grey, who looked like he was about to throw up.
"Grey! I told you to wait for me!" Seconds later, Crescent appeared in the doorway and his smile immediately disappeared. "Oh my god, Grey, what did you do?! I'm so sorry Ivory, this idiot doesn't know when to quit."
"Hey! Why is this my fault? He's the one who swung his battle mace at me!" Grey somehow seemed to forget all about having his head almost smashed in. Obsidian was still as pale as a ghost and Crescent and Grey were now in a heated arguement. It took me a moment, but I finally snapped to my senses.
"Okay, both of you stop!" The room became dead silent, all eyes were on me. "Now, Crescent, Grey why are you two here?" They both exchanged nervous glances. Crescent stepped forward after a moment and cleared his throat.
"Well um, we saw Jett storming through the campus and he just brushed us off when we tried to talk to him, so we came to ask what was up with him."
"Oh." I felt even worse now. The reason he ran off like that was because of me. He left because I didn't tell him, and now he's injured because Evans took all his anger on him. I tried not to cry again over the thought. Wait- these two don't know. What do I do? I look over to Obsidian with wide eyes.
"Well I should be off." Did I not make myself clear? I needed help from him and he's just gonna get up and leave? He made it to not to far to the door before stopping. "Oh and before I forget, here." A card flew through the air onto my lap. "It'll help, I promise." With that I looked up and he was gone.
"Will you two just sit down make yourself comfortable, I'm gonna go check on Jett. See he hasn't been feeling well. I'll be right back." Gosh I didn't have the time for this. I didn't look at the card or anything, but I didn't lie to them, I did need to go check on Jett and he wasn't in a stable condition physically or mentally. I just couldn't tell them. Not yet, not until Jett and I were both ready for that.
I started running as fast as I could towards the school. Jett was who I needed to focus on, but that card seemed to be bugging me. I slowed my pace and took it in my hand. I flipped it over and the first thing I noticed was the suit. It wasn't a heart like the rest, but instead a spade. It was the queen of spades. In tiny letters close to the bottom corner, 'don't go out tonight' was written. A moment later I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head. I was on the ground in a matter of seconds and my vision was blurring. What just happened to me? I heard laughter and the last thing I saw was a pair of blood red eyes and long blonde hair. Then everything went black.
So close to being done this is chapter 13 out of the total 16 we are going to write its going to be awesome. But dont you worry we already have plans on writing a book 2 in Jetts and Scarlets point of view. Its going to great! Im super excited.
