Chapter 104.
Dylan's P.O.V
It had been two days since I had spoken to Henry, two days since he forgot October twenty third. I hadn't spoken to him or answered his calls or replied to any of his pleading texts, neither did I pay him any attention in school whenever he tried to speak to me. I just couldn't speak to him, not yet, I couldn't when he still had that bitch by his side.
I was done playing nice.
"Okay so, I'm thinking, what should I go as for my Halloween party? I haven't figured that out yet," Raven said, flipping her hair backwards. "I have a couple of ideas." She said while we walked to class.
"Let's hear them." I suggested.
"Okay," she grinned. "There's Cleopatra, Medusa, Maleficent, Catwoman, Storm."
I grimaced. "Why didn't I hear slut in that?" I asked and Jaxton snickered.
"You could go as a snake," Jax shrugged.
"That's where Medusa comes in," I snapped my fingers and we both laughed.
"I swear i hate you both." Raven said, rolling her eyes.
"We're just kidding," I said, throwing an arm over her shoulder. "Whatever you go as, just make sure you're sexy as hell, you could try Cleopatra, she's royalty and the party's at your place, be a queen." I shrugged.
Raven smirked. "Have i told you how much I love you?"
"You don't love me, you stole my lunch yesterday." I frowned at her.
Raven frowned back. "I didn't, it's the other way round, you stole mine."
"Oh," I grinned. "Yeah, you're right."
She playfully nudged me and I chuckled.
"You decided yet?" Raven asked Jaxton and I, I shrugged while Jaxton replied.
"I haven't yet, but something that doesn't scream attention like you know, Cleopatra."
Raven grinned. "Thank you for the respect," she said and turned to me while Jax rolled his eyes. "What about you, snowy?"
"Well, killer frost," I cleared my throat. "Sadly, I might not be able to attend your Halloween party." I said as we walked into history.
Raven laughed. "Good joke, seriously what are you wearing?" She asked and I turned to her, giving her a blank stare. "No! Dylan, no! You have to be at my party! You owe me! You haven't been to any of my parties!" She whined.
"Yeah, I know." I said as I sat down, "But I have a tradition every Halloween." I shrugged. Jaxton sat at my left while Raven at my right.
"Oh, you can surely skip murdering babies and sacrificing pregnant women this year!" She scoffed.
"As tempting and interesting as that sounds, I'm doing something different."
Raven groaned. "Dylan, no singing the 'i love you' song under children's bed, it's creepy!"
"Raven," I rolled my eyes. "I'm not doing that either!"
Jaxton gasped. "Oh my God, you're the grim reaper and you release the souls on Halloween, don't you?! I knew it."
I furrowed my brows at him. "Seriously, Jaxton?" He chuckled softly, settling his books on his desk.
"Good one, JaxJax." Raven sniggled. "But seriously, Antichrist, what is so important that you won't even attend your own bestfriend's party?" She asked, arching her brow.
"Oh, so I'm allowed to speak now? Are you done assuming I'm a killer?"
"We never assumed," Jaxton shrugged. "You are a killer."
I slowly turned my gaze to Jaxton. "Keep talking and I'll strangle you with your intestine tonight." I said and flashed him a smile.
He grimaced. "You don't have to always be dark." He muttered, staring at his book.
"Dylan!" Raven called and I looked back at her.
"Raven, before I met you I never used to go to parties, I liked being a lone Wolf." I shrugged. "On Halloween, I watch demonic movies with my mom and laugh everytime the other gets scared and then have candy shaped like an eyeball." I shrugged. "Well this year, Dad's included." I said, wiggling my brows at her.
"Candy shaped like an eyeball?" Jaxton asked.
"Yeah, it's actually really delicious because you'd imagine it's the eye of someone you hate and just eat it." I grinned.
"Dylan!" Jaxton gasped in horror.
"Relax, I'm kidding!" I said and turned to Raven, mouthing. "I'm not."
She rolled her eyes again. "You do that every year, this year has to be different because now you've met us and I insist, I'll text your mother if i have to and you are going to my Halloween party, I want to see you dressed like a hot devil."
"Yeah, I don't do costumes if it isn't to scare little children to death." I said with a grin.
"What kind of a monster are you?" Jaxton said in a low tone.
"I'm not a monster," I said with a smirk. "I just think scaring people till they poo their pants or enter a coma is fun."
"You really are the devil." Raven said, shaking her head.
"You guys have no idea." I said, smiling. Well, the smile didn't stay on my face for long because Henrique came in, Zach and Jon beside him.
Once our eyes met, I looked away without caring and at Raven. "How many people are coming to your party?"
"Let me see," she said and looked at her fingers, gasping afterwards. "Everyone."
"Even Quinn?"
Raven groaned. "Why did you have to mention her name!"
"Hey, hey," Jon appeared behind us. "What's up?"
"Hi, baby." I smiled at him.
"Hi." Zach said into Raven's ear and she flinched in fear, sighing in anger afterwards.
"Zach, I told you not to do that."
He grinned. "Sorry."
Raven turned to him, a smile on her face. "Good morning,"
I arched a brow at them being all cute, I gave Jaxton and Jon a confused look but they just shrugged, they were also confused.
"Good morning," Zach replied to her and wiggled his brows. "Sleep well?"
"You were in my bed, of course." Raven replied and my jaw dropped.
He smirked. "So, thought about it fully?"
Raven huffed. "Yeah, I did."
"Thought about what? Guys, fill me in. Thought about what? Why are you guys being all cute? What is Raven supposed to think about?" I asked, prying cause what kind of friend would I be if I didnt know everything?
"Not your business, Dylan." Zach said and I sighed.
"You will make a beautiful sacrifice, Zachary Pratt." I said with a smile and Raven shot me a glare. "Spill." I ordered.
Raven sighed. "Zach asked me to be his girlfriend and I said to give me to today."
I just stared at her. "I'm sorry, am I supposed to be surprised or like...shocked or something, because he's been asking you since before Christ, so?"
Jon chuckled while Raven rolled her eyes, giving me the middle finger.
"Well, your answer?" Jaxton asked.
"I would love to but Zach is a flirt."
"You are a flirt." Jon said and Raven glared at him.
"Not like Zach!"
"I won't flirt with anyone who isn't you, I promise."
"And your other hoes? I don't share." Raven said, turning to face him.
"I don't have any!"
"What about Anna, Isabella, Christabelle, Riri, Marcy, Lili," Raven began to count.
"N-No, babe! They mean nothing, I haven't even done anything with any of them since you." Zach said, holding onto his little faith.
"If you cheat, I will know Zach."
"I would never." Zach said, smiling.
Raven turned to us. "Should I?"
"Yes! He's been asking for months!" Jax groaned.
"Sure." Jon smirked.
Raven's eyes turned to me and I smirked. "Well,"
"Oh God!" Zach sighed. "Dylan, please!"
"On one condition will I let you date my best friend." I replied.
"Dylan," Jaxton whined. "Let him be."
"But-"
"Dylan!" Jaxton pleased with his eyes
"Ugh, fine!" I groaned. "Date her! Hurt her and God so help your balls."
"Terrifying." Zach said, frowning. "But thanks."
"Well then, take me on a date tonight." Raven said with a shrug.
"Well, your answer? Yes?" Zach asked, blinking.
"Tonight, I'll tell you." She said, smiling.
Zach grinned. "I-"
"Sorry, I'm late!" A familiar voice said and rushed in, I frowned once i saw him.
"Oh my God, Mr. Rowan!" I blinked. "I just realized I haven't seen him for a long time! I am a horrible person."
Zach and Jon went to their seats and Raven sighed. "Now, a hot teacher I can stare at."
"Didn't you just say yes to Zach's proposal?" Jax asked and I shushed him.
"Mr. Rowan is hot, don't deny it."
Jax blinked. "Well, I- nevermind."
I chuckled.
"It's so great to see some old faces," Mr. Rowan said with a grin. "And new faces," he added. "My name is Mr. Rowan, I had been away for months for something important but now I'm back."
"What was the important thing?" Zach asked and Mr. Rowan smiled at him.
"Not your business." He said and we all laughed.
And as much as I tried to concentrate, I really couldn't, because his eyes were boring into my back, I could feel it and it distracted me.

"My father is sort of mad that you haven't come see me." Raven said as we walked down the hall.
"Your dad likes Dylan?" Jaxton asked with a frown.
I snorted. "Of course, how can he not love me, I'm loveable."
"I said like." Jaxton corrected.
"And besides," I ignored him. "I've done a lot of good things for the Frosts that I don't want to brag about. I'll come see your father during the weekend." I shrugged.
"I'll tell him that so he doesn't come shoot you."
"Thank you," I replied.
"Anyways, I know we're not supposed to ask you this," Jaxton said as we got to my locker. "But, how are you? Did you and Henry like really really breakup?"
"Jaxton, you were right, you are not supposed to ask that," I said cocking a brow at him. "I don't want to talk about it and I'm fine."
"Oh, the devil is on his way." Raven muttered, looking behind me.
"Who?"
"Your boyfriend or...ex, whichever."
"They haven't broken up!" Jaxton whisper yelled at her.
"Doesn't seem like it." Raven muttered.
"Oh, he's here, he's here. Oh, hey Henry." Jaxton chuckled, nervously. "Hi"
I swallowed.
"Hey," he replied from behind me. Was it okay to sort of miss hugging him?
No, right?"
"I'll just...go." Jaxton said, and just as he was about to go, I stopped him.
"Don't go anywhere." I said as I opened my locker, ignoring Henry and taking out some books.
"Dylan, can we talk?"
"No."
"Please."
"What part of no, don't you understand?" I asked, turning to face him finally. "The N that says 'not gonna happen' or the O that means 'oh go fuck yourself?"
"Oh." I heard Jax say.
Henry closed his eyes for a second and gave me a pleading look. "You've been avoiding me, please let's just talk, okay? Let's just....please. Just give me a chance to explain."
I took a step towards him. "I like you begging," I said with a smirk. "Do it again," I said and his eyes widen a bit.
"Dylan!" Jaxton called and I sighed.
"Listen, I thought I made it clear when I said to back the fuck off? Leave me alone, Henry. You're seriously annoying the shit out of me, I need a lot of space from you so keep your distance because when I look at you, i get mad." I spat. "I get really mad because you got dumb! The Henry I got together with, wasn't this stupid! He wasn't a big fucking wimp, he had a brain! This guy standing right in front of me? Not so sure."
"Dylan,"
"I am done pretending, Henry. I am done acting like I like her, that bitch in your house who has been trying to ruin our fucking relationship since she stepped foot into Eastwood. You think she's this nice goddess of eastend but that girl, your ex girlfriend whom you think i shouldn't be jealous of, is going to be the one to put an end to what we have and guess what?" I flashed him a smile. "I am done fighting for us at the moment so whatever wants to happen, let it happen. If you want her then go for her."
"I don't fucking want her!"
"Are you sure?" I laughed. "Because you keep choosing her over me and it's irritating." I said and walked past him, I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from feeling sad.
I was mad, I was also sad, hurting because i did miss him and although saying that felt a little too cruel, I wanted to hurt him just as much as I was on that day and thinking about it, I let out a heavy breaths, my stare turning cold.
Fuck feelings.

Jaxton's P.O.V
"He didn't...mean that, he's just angry." I said with a shrug. Henry looked away from Dylan as he walked away and back at us, faking a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Its fine."
"He was just disappointed, he clearly still loves you. Dylan always says the most hurtful things to the people he loves, you know that." I said, trying to make him feel better.
Dylan had transformed into killer first in less than a second and seeing Henry's face, I did feel bad for Henry.
"Don't try to make him feel better, JaxJax." Raven said and I mouthed a shut up but she rolled her eyes.
"Henry, I have nothing against you, you know that. But there are certain things that you have been ignoring, like you know," she shrugged. "Your psycho ex who hates Dylan and probably stopped you from meeting with Dylan two days ago. Zach told me you all had a lot to drink the night before, who's idea was that?" Raven asked, cocking her head to the side before walking away.
"I-I'll see you later." I said, flashing him a smile before walking after Raven. "Couldn't you have been more nice?" I asked as I walked beside her.
"If you make it easy, he'd never understand." Raven replied with a shrug.
"I feel bad for him, I feel bad for Denry." I sighed.
"They haven't officially broken up, so relax." Raven whispered. "Anyways, how's your sister?"
"She's good, she loved the tiara and pony you got her," I smiled. "Thank you."
"Oh, it's fine. She's really cute, she did say she wants to be a princess like me." Raven said with a smile and flipped her hair.
I rolled my eyes. "Okay, so she called you Ariel, it's only because of your hair."
"Well at least I look like a princess." Raven shrugged. "She really wanted a tiara even after i gave her that inspiration speech about how she was already a princess."
"That must have cost a lot, you didn't have to."
Raven rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, Jaxton. Don't even do that, Sofía is the little sister i never had, I'm so glad that I have to spoil her now," she grinned. "And I cannot wait for Davina to grow up."
"Right?" I grinned. "She has the prettiest eyes and I hope she's not gonna end up being like Dylan." I sighed, praying for her future.
"She's a Dexwell, Jaxton, of course she's going to end up like Dylan or his mom." Raven stated in an obvious tone.
"Poor Davina. Poor world." I muttered while she laughed. "So," I turned to her. "I'm so proud of the fact that you've decided to give Zach a chance." I smiled.
"Yeah, I know." She beamed. "I mean, he makes me laugh and he's not as dumb as we thought he was."
"I never thought he was dumb." I shrugged.
"Remember when we were in middle school and he said the plural of cow is chicken." Raven said, arching his left brow at me.
"He only said that because he got confused cause of that cartoon we used to watch as kids." I said, trying to defend Zach but failed, laughing afterwards. "Okay that was funny, how could I ever forget?"
"See what I mean."
"Well he got better in his academics because of you, so you should be happy and also thank me for tutoring him."
"Did he pay you?"
"I told him not to worry."
"Do you regret it?"
"No, he still paid me." I shrugged.
"Ooh." She grinned. "Anyways," we continued walking. "You're coming with Dominic to my party, right?"
"If he isn't busy."
"It's Halloween night, of course he's not going to be busy."
"People eat, y'know? At the diner. At hoes."
"Whatever." Raven muttered. "Just make sure you come with him." She said as we walked into our next class which we had together. "Do you wanna come over tonight to study?"
"Can't, I have to babysit Sofía today."
"Again?" She groaned. "Seriously, what of your mother? She's always leaving you to babysit your sister, not that it's a bad rhing but like I thought you had a life?"
"I do. Before i met Dylan and you and I became friends, I only had a routine." I said as i sat down.
"Which was?" She asked as she gave the girl sitting at my left a look and she got up, packed her things and left the seat immediately. "You were saying?" She asked as she sat with a smile, placing her red bag on the desk.
"Why didn't you just sit here?" I asked pointing at the empty seat at my right.
"I like it here." She shrugged. "Continue."
I sighed. "I just went to school, did my whole LGBT thing, tutored kids, made lunch and dinner, then babysit Sofia." I shrugged.
"Oh my God, that sounds awful."
"It wasn't so bad."
"Now that you do more things with your life like...kiss Dominic, go to clubs with me, be evil, you know, fun stuffs, how do you feel?"
"Uh," I frowned. "Better actually, but hey, Sofía is my sister, if my mom can't come home today, I'll just have to babysit her." I shrugged again. "Another night of Disney." I muttered. "She's so into the Cinderella thing, you know the last time we watched Cinderella, she asked me how come Cinderella had no friends except the mices and I started questioning myself."
"She does have a point, she is smart." Raven said with a small nod. "Anyways, I guess I'll come over tonight."
"No, you don't have to." I shook my head at her.
Raven blinked. "I'm sorry, did it seem like I was asking because then I must have gave out the wrong vibe." She said and rolled her eyes. "I'll be at your house tonight."
I smiled. "Thanks."
Raven was halftime a bitch but she was also a sweetheart and i couldn't stop loving her.
"Do you think we should call Dylan?" Raven asked as the bell rang.
"I-" I shook my head. "I mean, he keeps acting like he's not bothered and everything is fine but we all know how much he's still hurting, do you think he'll come?"
"Fifty bucks says he will." She smirked.
"Raven, I'm broke."
"Fine," she opened her bag and took out some cash, handing it to me. "Hold it."
I frowned, taking it from her. "What is-"
"Now if I win, you give me back my cash, if I don't then I'll give you another fifty."
"S-So, you're just...giving me your money?"
"Don't spend it." She said and looked ahead as the teacher walked in.
"What would I buy?" I asked with a chuckle and looked at the teacher.
Dylan's not gonna come.
***
Dylan's P.O.V
"Halloween is six days away, I am not completely ready." Raven groaned as she drove.
"Want our help?" I asked, turning to look at her.
"I don't want you helping cause I want you to be amazed." She said as she took a left turn.
"You don't need to go all out, Ra-"
"Ah, shush shush." I said, cutting Jaxton off as I turned to look at him at the back seat. "She's not going all out for you, it's for me, let her do what she wants."
Jaxton rolled his eyes. "You're crazy."
"I know." I grinned.
Raven was driving us home, school was over and all I wanted to do was lay on my bed and cuddle my pillow and not the stupid teddy bear Henry got me.
"So, I'm going over to Jaxton's later today for a study section and to babysit Sofía of course." Raven said and I frowned.
"Again? What about your mom?"
"Work." They chorused.
"Anyways, do you wanna come? I swear it'd be fun and Sofía actually wants to see you again, she asked about you." Raven said as she drove, sounding sincere.
"No thanks, I'm gonna be busy and I also want to see Sofía but my mom needs my help tonight."
"Are you sure you don't wanna come?" Raven asked, her brows knitting.
"I have no choice."
"I'll be buying boxes of pizza and Chinese."
"Tempting," I smiled. "But i can't bail on mom. Tomorrow, I promise."
"Uh, of course, tomorrow." She said and faked a smile.
I looked at Jaxton through the front mirror and he was looking back at me, he muttered a 'thank you' and I winked at him. Jaxton had walked up to me at the cafeteria and begged me to say no to Raven's offer because they had a bet and he needed the money to get a Halloween costume and Raven being Raven was gonna try to persuade me, he pleaded like a child and so, I had to do it.
He owes me a box of pizza.
"Okay then," Raven said as she parked in front of my house.
"Thanks guys," I said as i got out. "I'll see you both tomorrow."
"Take care of yourself, call us if you need anything." Jaxton said as he got out and went to the front seat, I flashed him a smile.
"Of course, now get out."
Raven smiled. "Bye, sweetie." She said as she zoomed off, I waved and the minute they disappeared, I stopped fake smiling.
With a sigh, I walked into the house, as I closed the door i announced that I was home. I began making my way up the stairs when mom cleared her throat, I rollrd my eyes and turned to see her staring at me and folding her arms at the bottom of the stairs.
"Mom, I'm super tired."
"You don't even know what I want to say."
"I can guess." I huffed. "I just need to take a little nap and then I'll be down, I promise."
"Well, aren't you going to eat?" She questioned.
"When I wake up?" I said as I resumed climbing up the stairs.
"Johnathan was sentenced to thirty years in prison." Mom said and I paused, I turned back to her.
"What?"
"Yeah, today was the hearing, it's been on the news."
I swallowed. "Oh."
"Yeah, are you okay?"
I nodded. "Why wouldn't I be? The dude tried to rape me and a couple of other students and also succeeded so yeah, I'm great."
Mom nodded. "Of course."
"Any news on his mom?"
"No, she fled." Mom shrugged. "But the men in the Smith family are in jail." She smiled.
"I'm so glad his father is still in jail."
"Hopefully, he stays there for good." Mom said with a sigh.
"So when is he going to jail-jail?"
"Tomorrow, I think."
I nodded. "Well, he did have an opportunity to change."
"Well, if only he had good parents."
"Yeah, if only."
"So, have you spoken to him? Henry."
I sighed. "I don't want to."
"Sweetie, you can't just shut him out."
"As a matter of fact, mom, I can."
"You're hurting yourself, Dylan." Mom stated.
I shrugged. "I'm fine." I smiled.
"Wipe that fake smile off your face, dude."
"Mom, stop bugging me." I groaned.
"I'm not bugging you, you dumb, stupid child."
"You're my mother, didn't I get that from you?" I retorted.
Mom's brow shot up, she let out a short laugh and smirked. "Oh Dylan, you better watch your back now." She said and walked away.
I frowned.
"Mom! I didn't mean that! Don't kill me!" I shouted but she said nothing.
I let out a groan and continued my way up the stairs and into my room, once i got in my phone rang. It was Raven, I answered, bringing the phone to my ear.
"Sup?"
"Hey, did you hear? About Johnathan?"
"Yeah, mom just told me."
"It's been on the news, I guess it'll be out on the newspapers tomorrow. I didn't even know the trail was today."
"Me neither," I replied, tossing my backpack on my bed. "Do you think our parents conspired and decided to keep it from us?"
"My parents haven't even met yours."
"True." I pouted.
"I actually thought he might go free." Jaxton said and I chuckled.
"We have all testified against him, more people came here to testify against Johnathan, and plus Raven's Dad hired one of the best lawyers in the world to make sure Luci doesn't go free, so yeah I was looking forward to this day." I shrugged.
"Thirty years," Raven sighed. "He got thirty years."
"Yeah, I know." I sighed as well.
"I hate to say it and be the odd one but I pity him." Jaxton said. "Yes, Johnathan is the monster in the book of Revelations but it's all his parents fault that he ended up this way."
"You are right, Jaxton, you are the odd one." Raven muttered.
"Forget it, I'm done."
"I'll call you guys later, I need to do something."
"Sure, I'll call you later." Raven said and hung up. I ran a hand through my hair tiredly and stared at my phone for the longest time before dialling his number.
"Sup?"
"Jon, hey." I smiled. "I need you to come over like right now."
***
Henry's P.O.V
I walked into the house with my mind all over the place. Every question led to one answer "Claudia". Everything led to her, I had been thinking about it the whole day. Claudia had suggested we have some drinks even after i had told her i needed to be sober so i could go over to Dylan's the next day. She wouldn't stop giving me more drinks until I got drunk, woke up with a migraine and forgot what day it was.
I never left my phones at home, I had two cellphones so how was it that i had left both of them at home at the same time? That was impossible. It could only mean one thing; she took them.
I had been asking myself if Claudia was the witch they all claimed she was, I kept defending her because i knew who she was, or i thought i did. I grew up with her, we dated, she wasn't the scorpion they said she was but it was all starting to make sense.
The night she planned the party, someone who wanted the best for you would never tell your current partner that they took your virginity. They would never tell your partner about you guys because they had to respect you but she did the exact opposite. She told Dylan we dated before I had the chance to, then she said she never meant to. She thought he knew.
I hadn't hanged out with my own boyfriends in weeks because she somehow always convinced me and made me hang out with her whenever i was to hang out with Dylan. I had become a fool all of a sudden. For two days I barely slept, for two days i had been miserable, guilt ate me and I hated myself.
Dylan was right.
I got dumb.
I had let my emotions, my old emotions separate me from my boyfriend, cause problems for us and all i did was defend her, yell at Dylan, I wasn't even there for him when he needed me the most.
I was a mess.
I had to make things right but first, I needed to get the truth from her. I was boiling with anger, furious that someone i had trusted was capable of such. She declined the call whenever Dylan called, if she meant well she would have answered, she declined and she made it obvious.
I wasn't going to spare her.
"Henry!" Claudia called, grinning at me as she walked over to me with a bowl. I just stared at her emotionlessly, I was mad, hurt. "Okay, so, I'm making a delicacy and I wanted you to taste this soup first." She said bringing the spoon close to my lips. "Open up."
"Why did you take my phone two days ago?"
Her smile slowly faded. "What are you talking about? You forgot your cellphon-" angrily, I slapped the bowl off her hand and to the floor.
Claudia jerked backwards, her eyes wide. "Henry! What the hell?!"
"Tell. Me. Why!" I demanded, throat tightening as i took a step towards her.
"I swear i did not!" She said as she took one step backwards. "What has come over you? Why would i take your cellphone from you? You forgot them and I kept them in your dresser for you and-"
I gripped her arm tightly and jerked her froward, she gasped. "If you lie to me one more time, one more time, Claudia! So help me God, I will go to jail and you will be six feet under."
She shivered. "W-What are Y-You going on about?!"
"CLAUDIA!" I yelled. "Did you or did you not take my phone away?"
"I did not." She lied still.
I tightened my grip on her and she winced. "H-Henry, you're hurting me, please."
I was angry, I could feel a rush of anger in my viens, I wanted to hit her, I wanted to punch her.
"Claudia!" I jerked her and she screamed, "You are testing my patience!"
"FINE! I DID! I DID, OKAY?!" She screamed. "I didn't want him calling you and disturbing when you were clearly gonna be tired! Do you know what it is like seeing you and him together?" She yelled, pulling her hand away. "You are not gay, Henry! You are straight! I am still in love with you, okay?! I admit it and seeing you with that...with that thing makes me so mad because this isn't who you are! And I won't let you be with that infection! With that demon!"
I rose my hand and slapped her hard across the cheek, she stumbled. She clutched her cheek and looked at me with wide eyes.
"That infection, that demon you're talking about, is my boyfriend and the only one that I will ever love, so get that into your brain if you have one." I stated. "You are my past, Claudia. What we had is in the past! You should be ashamed of yourself. I didn't think you could stoop so low but what do i know? You are the infection here," I said and walked closer to her, gripping her arm again, tighter this time. "I want you out of this house before I get back, if I see you or smell you here when I get back, I won't hesitate to kill you. You should know what I am capable of, Claudia. You disgust me and I do not want an evil eye in my home. Pack your bags and get out." I said and pushed her to the ground. "I am not joking." I said and stormed out, slamming the door shut.
I got into my car angrily, slamming the door shut. I placed my hands on the steering wheel and began to breathe heavily. I punched the steering wheel severally and ran my hand through my head. "Fuck." I muttered and started the engine.
I had to apologize to him, I had to make things right. I can't let him just break up with me. I was going to do everything I could to make it all right, to make him forgive me.
I drove straight to his house, already preparing an apology. I couldn't believe that I had been fooled by the person I trusted. Once I had gotten to his house, I stared at the building and let out a sigh.
"Dylan, I am sorry, I know I have been stupid, I just-" i sighed again. "No, that sounds stupid." I muttered. I cleared my throat and began again. "Dylan, it was all Claudia, i- I sound pathetic." I groaned.
Just let it flow, Henry.
I got out of the car and walked over to the door, I was nervous, I had fucked up severally and I'd understand if he didn't want to forgive me. I knocked on the door and waited, my hands in my pocket. There was no answer and so I knocked again.
"I'M COMING!" He screamed. "MOM, I SWEAR TO GOD, IF IT IS ANY OF THOSE KIDS WHO SELL COOKIES, I'LL KICK THEIR PRETTY FACE!" He yelled, I smirked and once he opened the door, I straightened myself.
His face darkened once he saw me, he rolled his eyes and began slamming the door when I held it. "Wait, wait."
"Henry, I don't want to listen to you, kay? So please, go away." He said anx attempted to close the door again when i held it.
"Just listen to me, please."
"No. I'm not gonna, Henry. I'm mad! There is nothing to talk about, don't you get it?" He asked, coldly and I swallowed.
"Dylan, who is that?" Bonnie, his mom asked and came to stand beside him. "Oh, Henry."
"Uh, good afternoon, Bonnie."
"How are you, sweetie?"
"I'm fine." I replied, faking a smile. "How's Davina?"
"Oh, she's good. I bet she misses you."
"Mom!" Dylan whisper yelled. "Don't be nice to him."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know the both of us broke up with Henry." Bonnie replied and rolled her eyes the same time as her son. I swear they were the same. "Why are you outside, come inside."
"No!" Dylan said, turning to his mother. "I don't want him in my house."
"Dylan, please listen to me."
He turned to me. "I'd rather choke on my saliva."
"Listen to him, you dumb, stupid, child of mine!" Bonnie scolded. "Stop being a dumbfuck!"
"Mom! Seriously?!"
"Yes, seriously! Listen to him and then you can say whatever you want to! That's how it works!"
"No, I'm not sure." Dylan said, shaking his head. "I don't feel like it."
"Then prepare to move out. You're seventeen, you should have a job and a house."
"My name is Dylan Dexwell not Dylan Kardashian or Jenner!" Dylan retorted, I smiled.
"Well, why don't you be a James Charles?"
Dylan laughed. "Yeah, rather slit my throat at night." He said, rolling his eyes again.
"Listen to him." Bonnie muttered and smacked the back of his head before going back in.
"Fine. Speak." Dylan said and folded his arms. "I'm listening."
"I am sorry, Dylan."
"Yeah, thank you very much."
"Dylan." I called, brows furrowed. "I am really sorry, I should have listened to you, I shouldn't have pushed you away, I shouldn't have treated you like shit. I am sorry, you were right about Claudia. She's a snake, I never should have doubted you. I just...trusted her a lot that I refused to believe she could do such. I am sorry, Dylan. I mean it. I am not just saying that so I could win your heart back, well i am but I am truly truly sorry for everything. Please, give me another chance. I swear I won't mess up. I promise you that I will be a good boyfriend, a better one. I sent Claudia away from my house, she won't be there anymore." I stated, feet cold as I prayed he would forgive me but he just stared at me.
"Did you really send her away?"
I nodded. "I did. She told me everything."
His brow rose. "She just did? She just vomited the truth?'
"I may or may not have...you know, forced it out of her."
He smirked. "well," he cleared his throat, putting on his tough expression. "Good for you."
"Am I forgiven?" I asked, biting my inner cheek.
"I don't know, I have to think about it."
"Oh," I blinked. "Uh, that's fine, you can uh...think about it."
"Oh for the love of God, can you two just fucking make up and make out!" Bonnie groaned, appearing beside Dylan again.
Dylan turned to his mother, his brows knitted. "Where you eavesdropping the entire time?"
"Well, what do you think?" Bonnie asked in singing voice. "He already threw the evil bitch out, come on, just admit that you miss him."
Dylan scoffed. "Miss him? Yeah no, do i look like I'm not breathing without him, ma?"
"You both come inside, we need to have a talk with me as your coach."
"But this isn't a mov-"
Bonnie shot him a glare and he shut up, groaning, he walked in first. Bonnie flashed me a smile and invited me in, I walked into his house, still nervous. She gently closed the door and directed me to the dinning, we all sat down. Bonnie cleared her throat and threw her hair back.
"Now, listen here boys, you two love each other. Whatever is happening here is wrong." She began. "You two have to sort this out and right now I am not gonna act like you are not at fault, Henry." She said and looked at me. "You are. You didn't believe your boyfriend, you left him when he needed you the most for an ex girlfriend. Do you know what it was like for him? It felt like betrayal, it was betrayal." She stated and i looked down at my fingers.
"I know, Mrs. Dexwell, and I realized now that I have been insensitive, I have been the worst boyfriend for not seeing through him, for not believing him and listening to Claudia instead." I admitted. "I just...I didn't think she could, you know, do this." I shrugged, it hurt me to know that someone I trusted was actually did this , actually tried to sabotage our relationship. "And I am sorry."
Bonnie nodded and turned to her son. "How do you feel, Dylan?"
"I am fine." He chuckled, bitterly.
"Are you really?" Bonnie asked and he nodded.
"There is nothing to say." He shrugged.
"Dylan, please, you need to talk to me and even if, yell at me." I said and he snapped his head at him.
"Oh, so you want to listen to me now? You shut me up the last time, I know i had to act like it was all fine but that was because I had to fight for you! Let's not even talk about the most hurtful one which eas you forgetting what October twenty three meant to me," he scoffed. "You most definitely won worst boyfriend of the month, boy."
"Dylan, I accept that i was dumb, stupid, annoying, I am sorry for forgetting. I had a lot of alcohol to drink due to Claudia's influence and i know that is no excuse but I...I didn't mean to forget intentionally." I explained. "please."
He didn't say anything and just stared at his hands.
"Dylan," His mother called. "He is obviously sorry, why won't you forgive him?"
"Because I'm still mad." He muttered. "Next thing he does, he forgets my birthday or...you know, other important dates." He shrugged childishly.
I wanted to smile but I knew I'd receive hell if i did. "I'd never forget your birthday."
"Are you sure?" He asked, turning to me. "What is the guarantee?"
"I could never ever forget anything important about you, no dates because I know that i will receive hell from you and I know it will hurt you and you will make me beg for months before you forgive me. Why would i want to risk that?"
I saw him smile but it only lasted for a second, he sniffed and frowned. "That's fine I guess, we can still be friends." He muttered.
My eyes widen. "Friends?!" Bonnie and I asked at the same time.
Dylan snorted. "Of course, what were you expecting? I can't just invite you back to my bed."
"Why not?" I asked and Bonnie kicked my leg from under the table, I coughed out the pain. "I...mean, sure. W-We can still be friends."
"If you ever, ever forget such important day again, I will break up with you for good." He said and my eyes widen.
"Uh," I blinked severally. "I promise! I won't." I shook my head. "I swear."
"Good." He said and turned to look at me. "You haven't slept, have you?"
I was surprised at how he was able to figure that out already but then, he was Dylan after all.
I shook my head. "Not exactly, but I'm fine." I smiled.
"No, you're not. You should sleep more, you look ugly when you are sleep deprived."
I chuckled. "Am I really ugly though?"
"Yeah, you are." He replied, smiling.
"Damn, my heart."
"Oh shut up, if you had a heart, you'd take me to HOES and buy me everything i want." He said with a shrug.
I smirked, I knew what he was doing. "Are you saying that so that I can take you to hoes and buy you everything you want to eat?"
"Me? Do such? Yes." He nodded.
I snickered. "Well, let us go then."
He grinned and stood up. "Fine."
"Dylan!" Bonnie called. "You two are cute and all but can you not waste the boy's money?"
"Oh come on, mom. He offered to buy me food and besides it's the least he could do at the moment. I'm still mad at him and I'm using this as an opportunity to take everything I want from him." He said with a shrug. "Why hide my intentions?" He smirked and looked at me. "Give me a sec, I'll go change." He said and walked away.
"Wow. I am so sorry, I gave birth to the spawn of Lucifer." Bonnie sighed.
I chuckled. "It's fine, he's adorable. If I have to get him food for him not to be entirely mad at me then fine."
"You do know he's going to order a lot of things right?" Bonnie asked, her brow arched.
I nodded. "Oh, I know."
"I'm glad you both settled things out." She said with a smile. "You both are cute together and are the missing pieces each other needs."
I nodded. "Yeah, I guess we are."
Dylan came down few minutes later and i took him to HOES, Dominic was the one who took our orders and served us. Dylan ordered almost everything, I always wondered how he could eat and never add a little weight, he never even worked out. It didn't take long for him to be laughing at my boring jokes and for the first time in two days, I felt relieved. I was happy. Everything seemed normal, everything had gone back to normal. I couldn't stop smiling as i watched him eat everything, he would complain that he was full and yet still ate, and when he realized I ordered nothing for myself, he fed me. He fed me one fry. According to him, that was all he could offer, and as stunned as I was, I wasn't extremely shocked, it was Dylan after all, he never liked sharing his food. So I ordered mine.
I couldn't stop myself from feeling guilty, it wasn't an emotion i could easily get rid off, so I apologized again but he was quick to shut me up. Telling me not to apologize again, he had forgiven me and low-key he understood why I was stupid.
He was a rare kind.
I drove him home and half the trip, he was on his phone, when I asked, his reply was Dark Web. I didn't want to begin questioning him and telling him to get off that because it was not just a normal website like we heard, so I used another approach.
"Isn't that like a dangerous web? You know, demonic stuffs?" I asked as I drove.
"Have you met me, Henry? Besides, I'm only curious, it's not like I'm gonna join a cult or something." He replied, eyes still on his phone.
"Please be careful, I really do not want you on that stuff. So could you maybe not be curious anymore?"
Dylan sighed and locked his phone, putting it down. "Yes, daddy." He replied and wiggled his brows at me.
I frowned. "Did you just-"
"Mmhmm." He laughed. "What?"
I chuckled. "You are something else, Dyl."
"I know, that's why you love me."
"True." I smirked. "You're coming to Raven's Halloween party, right?"
"Yeah, I am. I don't think I am allowed to miss it."
"Me neither," he sighed. "Well then, I guess I really will be going."
"Do you know what you're going as yet?" I inquired.
"Not exactly but I'll think of something."
"Please don't come as the gate keeper of Tartarus." I said and took a left turn, towards his street.
I gasped dramatically. "Why would you think that?"
"Because like you said, I know you." I replied.
"Well, what about you?"
I wasn't sure what i was gonna dress up as. Zach had told me to make sure I attended Raven's Halloween party, I guess I wasn't allowed to say no, that I needed sleep and would prefer staying home and watching horror movies with my mom.
"I haven't decided yet." I shrugged.
"You could go as a hot devil or something." He suggested.
"I guess I will think about it."
He grinned. "You'll be the hottest devil there is."
"Convincing." I said as I stopped the car in front of his house and leaned in, kissing him. He kissed me back, a smile on his face.
"We should go hone." He said in-between kisses.
"I know but I have missed you." I replied, my hand in his hair.
He pushed me backwards with a smile. "Goodnight, hot stuff."
I grinned. "Goodnight, marshmallow."
"Ugh, the stupid nickname." He groaned, although I could tell he liked it. "Text me when you get home."
I nodded. "Promise."
"And get some sleep." He said and kissed me, he got out of the car real quick, shutting the door.
I chuckled. "Crazy." I muttered.
He waved at me, a smile on his face. I slowly waved back and started the car, driving away.
I had him back.
I was the happiest person on Earth at the moment.
***
5:54PM
"Yeah, well he came back to his senses, what could i have done? Plus he was begging and I just had to." I shrugged, I was having a skyping with Raven, Jaxton, Jon and Gwen through my laptop. Jaxton being with Raven and Gwen being with jon.
"Well, you should have just slammed the door at his face." Raven said and Jon scoffed.
"You are just a bitch!" Jon said as he took a bite of his bread. I bet it was microwaved.
"I am not!" Raven retorted.
"You are." Jaxton said, hitting her with a pillow.
"Ow! Olson!"
Gwen chuckled. "Well, I'm glad you both are back."
"Oh my God, I'm so full. He bought me a lot of food." I said as I fell on the bed.
"What'd you eat?" Jon asked.
"Henry showed me how much he loved me by letting me take advantage of his debit card."
Jaxton gasped. "Dylan, you are so mean. When Dominic told me, I didn't want to believe it."
"Of course your boyfriend would tell you." I rolled my eyes and frowned once I heard hard knocking on the front door.
"Shit, guys, i gotta go, someone's knocking on my door like some mafia gang." I said with a frown.
"What about your mom?" Gwen asked.
"She went out with Davina, gotta go."
"Alright, bye."
"Take care."
"Love you!" Jon said as I disconnected.
I got up and ran out of room, the knocking didn't stop making my frown deepen.
"I'm coming, Jesus!" I shouted as I ran down the stairs and towards the door, I opened it angrily, shouting "WHAT?!" My brows flew up once I saw a furious Claudia.
"Oh my God, who let you out of your cage?" I asked, cocking my head to the side. "What do you want?"
She pushed me aside and stormed in, I stared at her in shock and was quick to block her part before she could get inside completely, I went to stand in front of her, stopping her from going further. "What the hell, Chylamydia? You don't just walk into people's houses and spread infection!!" I yelled.
"Henry threw me out because of you disgusting faggot."
I chuckled. "Well he wasn't gonna let you stay with that tongue of yours."
"You think you have won huh? You think this is funny?"
"It kinda is, you sound desperate." I stated.
"I love him! I have always loved Henry since we were kids and you think you have him now but he will always love me! Henry will always love me because I was his first everything! You are just some pathetic pity bag." She laughed while i just stared at her with no interest. "Henry and I shared what you could never have with him, I give him a few days and he'll be back begging me to forgive him for being a dick." Claudia said, pointing at me, her throat tight.
"Interesting fact." I smiled.
"He is mine and i won't share him."
"Didn't he like throw you out of his house?" I asked with a shrug. "I wish I could have seen that." I giggled.
She gripped my arm and pushed me to the ground. "You shut the hell up, you man whore!"
"Ow," I cried. "Claudia, what the hell? Henry fed me till I can't walk, what is wrong with you?" I asked as I stood up. "Can't you see that I'm pregnant with his child?" I asked and snickered.
She looked pained, exactly what i was going for. She tightened her fist and spoke. "I won't spare you, i promise you, Dylan. If I don't get Henry then we might as well all die." She said and I cocked my brow at her. "You pathetic faggot, you should die, you should burn in hell because God condems this, your life is a mistake, a sin! Do you think because your parents act like everything is fine, it really is? They are disgusted and I am certain Isaac is so happy he died at a young age than living to see what his older brother would become." Claudia said, laughing. Hitting a spot.
My jaw tightened, I took a step towards her but before I could do anything, a hand gripped hers and twirled her and before she could think, she was slapped so hard, I flinched at the sound. Claudia's head turned to the left as she took two steps to the left deom the unexpected attack. She pushed her hair back and looked at who had just slapped her with enough venom in her eyes, I followed her stare and my jaw dropped at the person who had slapped her with the thunder hand.
It was the queen herself.
I was more than shocked to her; what was she doing here?
I blinked. "Grandma Athena."
She glared at Claudia with anger that could separate an ocean, she was breathing hard and was I swear those eyes could murder a person four times.
"Who the hell do you think you are to hit me?!!" Claudia sneered.
"If you open that filthy, cock sucking mouth of yours and speak to me then i will slap you so hard that your brain resets." Grandma Athena yelled. "Who the hell do you think you are to speak to my grandson like that? Don't you have any goddamn shame, you dirty whore from the underworld." Grandma Athena asked angrily.
"Why don't you ask your grandson what he did than attack me or do the Dexwell's not think?" Claudia spat
"Hey-"
Grandma Athena stopped me from speaking with her hand pointing at me. "No, i will handle this child who has no home training." She said and I shut up. "I see you have a big mouth, huh?" She chuckled. "Well let me tell you something sweetie, you do not know who I am because if you did then you wouldn't spill such trash."
"I admit your grandson is gorgeous but his sexuality is a true shame to the world."
"And what makes you think your existence is not a shame?" Grandma Athena shot back immediately. "Look around, sweetheart. It's obvious, you've lost everything and even the boy you claim you love. You wanna know what everyone thinks? They think you are a waste of semen, you are just an error code. A waste of oxygen, human life, and there is nothing, and I mean nothing that is ever gonna change that honey." She said with a smile.
Claudia gulped, glaring at her angrily while I smirked. "And who do you think you are to-"
"Shut up, child." Grandma Athena said and took a step towards her. "Do you know what I hate the most? I hate it when people who are oxygen thieves like yourself interrupt me when I'm talking, makes me think of murder." She said firmly, her brows furrowed.
I grinned, folding my arms.
Claudia looked furious, she was beyond mad that she had met someone who knew the spot to hit to get you crying.
"Why don't you go do yourself a favor and play in traffic, love." Grandma Athena said with a smile. "You are dragging a boy that doesn't even love you, do you know how you sound and look? Re-tar-ded. That is it. You should think before you come for my grandson next time, don't even think about it or you're dead, my name is Athena and my family always comes first so don't think i won't beat you to death."
Claudia was speechless, she was fuming and her eyes were red like she was going to cry. I knew she was pained, every word Grandma Athena threw was like fire and I was here for it.
"Now, get the hell out of our house or I swear to God and Zeus, your funeral will be the next celebration in this town. Get out." She snarled but Claudia just stared at her with rage. "Well then," Grandma Athena said and gripped her arm tightly. "Since you want me to do it myself." She said and pulled her along, throwing her out the door.
"Bye." I waved.
"Get a useful life, sweetie." She said and opened her purse, she took out some cash and threw at Claudia. "Why don't you check Amazon." She said with a smile and slammed the door shut.
Being happy at the moment was an understatement, Grandma Athena turned to me and sighed. "Well, don't I get a hug?"
I grinned and ran to her, hugging her tight with a scream.
Hail, Grandma Athena.
