Sleeping is for the dead

'It's easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend'

I felt like, there was a fire lit in front of me, and I was right beside it, completely and utterly oblivious to it. Waiting for it to come closer, until I burn.

Because I was so naive, and just because I wanted to see the good in people, and that would of cost the life of my brother or a friend.

I'm no where near perfect my self, but I know what i'm capable of. I felt it since day one, that there was something off between Violet and Garrett, but not my best friend. No, not April.

Brett was attacked, stabbed by a rare wolfsbane, we thought Garrett was after Liam, but it just happens to be another wolf on the field.

It definitely shocked me that Brett was a werewolf. I mean human me was dating a werewolf, how cool was that.

Right now all my sympathy went to Liam. He might not have been the one Garrett wanted to kill or that fact he wasn't on the second half of the dead pool nor was I, but the girl he loved had put his heart on their dead pool.

The look of betrayal was evident in Liam's eyes. He was devastated and hurt.

Everything. She told us everything. From when they met, to how they were today. I didn't know what to think. I mean she did live a hard life, but I just don't know.

It's been weird between Liam and I lately. I mean after my confession at the McCall household, everything just seemed, weird and quiet. When he chased after me, I told I didn't want to talk, and I needed to be alone.

To be honest. I forgave Liam for the incident ages ago, it was a mistake, and I'm as much to blame as he is. We weren't on the second half of the dead pool, I guess that's one good thing from the weekend.

Now I was in my room, living life. I heard a soft knock on my door, and me being me lazy self that I am, yelled for them to come in. Well, I guess it sounded like a come in, there was so much Oreos in my mouth, I didn't think it sounded anything like a come in.

The door creaked open to reveal my brother Liam. I weakly smiled at him, of course he understood that, he was my twin.

"What are you doing?" He asked, plopping onto my bed.

"Living life." I answered dryly looking towards my laptop.

"Your watching Netflix." He questioned.

"Exactly, living life." I assured him.

"I need a break from this dead pool, supernatural business." I told him honestly.

He nodded in understanding.

"How about you, how are you holding up?" I asked.

He sighed. "You mean the fact that my girlfriends is an assassin."

I raised my eyebrow, in confirmation.

"Well let's see, I still love her. I'll always will and I don't want to let her go-"

"Liam." I whispered, cutting him off.

"Let me finish Lux, she's the one person that didn't see me as this time bomb. Waiting for me to explode any second. She'd always listen too, an-"

"You think she's your anchor." I finished off.

He shrugged his shoulders. "I think so, I mean her voice did calm me down at the game, that has to mean something."

"I guess."

"What? are you not thinking about for giving her?"

"Thinking about it yes, but actually forgiving her. I don't know Liam."

Liam smiled at his sister, he knew her so well. She was going to forgive her but not after making her life a living hell with her words. {Weird third POV thing here}

"Why are you smiling at me like that?" I asked.

"I know you, you will forgive her." He answered.

I now noticed he was in his running gear.

"Your going out for running?" I asked gesturing to his gear.

"No I'm staying in for running, I just like to lounge around in my gear." He answered sarcastically, pushing off my bed.

Which was supposed to be my thing. I scoffed at him jokingly until I remembered an important question.

"How do you think April and Scott are doing?"

Liam hesitated before he spoke. "Wow eh, I have no Idea, I mean it's kind of weird finding out something that big, he wasn't joking when he said he recognised her?"

"Right! In a bizarre way, it all fell together, like a perfect puzzle, the look on ms McCall face was-"

"Priceless."

I nodded, it was a pretty big reveal. Who had ever thought that April was once adopted by the McCalls only to be ripped away from them and pronounced dead by someone anonymous. April McCall has a nice ring to it I guess. What happens now was a big question for them. For me.

"Are you going to come run with Mason and I before school starts?"

"Do I look a runner?" I questioned him, shoving another Oreo biscuit into my mouth while opening the second packet.

"Well we don't look like werewolves but here we are."

I looked up at him, making my eyes glow. "Do I look like a werewolf now?"

He shook his head, laughing.

"Your a crazy one sis." He chuckled.

I smiled in victory. "That's right and you never forget it." I laughed along with him.

As our laughter died down. It somehow felt perfect, I never thought we'd go back being like this.

I missed it so much.

"Well have a good run." I remarked, sending him a little wave.

"Yea." He said, staring at me with smile while I smiled back.

He was about to leave, when he suddenly took a double take and walked back in backwards, his face still facing the exist and not facing me.

"Womb to tomb."

My voice hitched as he said that. It was our saying, we always said to each other. A twin thing. I never thought I heard those words again. Tears clouded my vision as I struggled to say my line. The smile on my face refused to remove as I picked at my nail polish nervously.

"Birth to earth." I replied, still smiling. He nodded his head, closing my door slightly.

I rushed off my bed, falling on my face in the process. I pushed my self off the ground, cursing at my clumsiness.

I went straight to my mirror, watching my self carefully.

"Ok, ok, how does this go." I randomly commented to my self.

I squinted my eyes as I tried to make them glow but it didn't work. I then widened my eyes, which also didn't work. So I decided to just normally look at the mirror and imagine it glow. Now it worked.

"Ugh normal is boring." I scoffed at my eyes, only glowing if I did nothing.

"Ok you can stop glowing now." I said as they glowed even brighter if that was possible.

"Come on." I whispered under breath as they were still glowing.

Before I knew it, I noticed a change in them. I griped the side of the mirror as I watch my eyes change. The previous circular pupils turned into slits. I hissed in pain as my claws willingly retract them selves.

They were different though. They were longer and seemed to have to some time of liquid seeping from them.

"What the hell is going on." I breathed out in shock not able to grasp what was happening. It all happened so fast as I dropped to knees.

I watched at scales replaced my skin on my arm. Nothing was making sense.

Voices rung through my head. I couldn't make out what any of them were saying but one of them sounded like Lydia's. I suddenly got this urge, this craving to scream.

"Oh god." I heard a voice say. I turned to see it was April.

"Lux what is it? what's wrong!"

Is she serious did it look like I was in the position to answer questions.

"I f-feel like-"

"Feel like what?" She interrupted as I glared at her.

"If you shut up, i'll be able to answer!" I hissed at her my head was spinning. The voices got louder, and I had no doubt one of them was Lydia's. My claws hit the carpet as the liquid in them spread.

"What is it Lux! what do you feel like doing?!" April asked, kneeling beside me, to steady me.

I knew I probably sounded stupid, but I was in so much unbearable pain. "I feel like- like I want scream." I breathed out, as I felt my lungs begging to be released with a scream.

Something clicked in April as she suddenly turned me to her. It reminded me of Demarco, whom she killed which angered me. Well she didn't kill him but you still get it.

"Lux look at me, do it! Lux scream!"
