Chapter 17
I wake up to a person bouncing on my bed, waking both me and Luke. Shocked I look up to see Nyx jumping on the bed, and notice Ashton standing by the door with an amused look on his face.
"Wake up sleepy-heads!" Nyx yells. "You're going to help us get ready for the party! You guys sleep so fucking late! It's already 1 in the evening ya dopes!" she laughs.
"It's too early...!" both me and Luke whine and cuddle under the blanket we threw over our heads, making Nyx slip and fall ass first on the floor, leaving Ashton in a giggling fit.
Nyx suddenly rips the blanket from the bed making both me and Luke cringe into a ball on the bed for warmth. "Get up!" Nyx yells kicking both me and Luke off the bed opposite of her, making us fall on each other.
"Can I eat her...?" Luke asks annoyed and serious. "Nah she's probably too chewy..." I reply bitterly. My Dragon wanted to rip her throat out, but I held her back.
We ended up getting ready and going to KFC. I got a large chicken burger and chomped down on it. Nyx got some kind of rap and both Ashton and Luke got chicken burgers too.
Luke started eating his chips fist and probably watching me, because I feel eyes on me. Luke bent over closer and wiped off a bit off sauce by my mouth and sucking it off his finger...O.K.A.Y!
A blush stung on my cheeks and Nyx kind of saw, but Ashton was too busy looking at Nyx to notice what just happened.
Nyx looks repulsed at Luke and then looks at me cringing a bit. "Dat...Was by far... de fucking grossest thing... EVER!" she speaks weirdly, making funny faces, which made Ashton giggle. Manliest giggle EVER! Not.
Nyx then started texting her address to a bunch of people on her phone and Ashton helped by texting on his phone. I got the text and looked over to Luke "We already know about the party. Why did we get texts?" I ask confused.
"Forward them to all your contacts... Duh," Nyx says in a duh expression and tone. "You too Luke," she tells Luke and Luke forwards it to all his contacts. Which were... A LOT.
I take a look on my phone. I don't have a lot of contacts.... To be honest... I don't even have Luke as a contact... Fuck it. I put down my phone after clanking at the few contacts I have and continue eating. "Did you forward it?" Nyx asks. "Yes," Luke answers and looks at me.
"No," I answer not caringly. Nyx looks at me shocked "Why not?!" she practically whines. "Cause Nyx... I don't have friends..." I look her in the eyes after I finished my food and get up.
"See you guys at the party," I say depressed and walk out of KFC, leaving the money for my food on the table.
When I get outside it's kind of hot so I take off my jacket and tie it around my waist. I walk into the alleyway that's a shortcut to my house and see a large dude pinning up a girl that looks about 14 or 15. Damned make-up.
She's crying and looking around franticly. She then spots me and wrenches out the word 'Help!' The guy looks at me and chuckles darkly. I continue to walk through the alley as if it's the most normal thing ever.
When I get closer I notice that she looks a lot like Ashton. They have the same face. Well then. I stop near them and frown at the guy. "What are you doing?" I ask as if he was the stupidest person ever.
He looks back at me annoyed "None of your business! Just out with my girl," he says evilly and turns back to the girl. I grab him by the scruff and rip him away from the girl, throwing him to the floor with ease.
"What's your name?" I ask the girl nicely. She shivers as she speaks "L-Lauren," she swallows the lump in her throat from crying.
The guy gets up but I don't look at him as he runs toward me. I hand her my jacket nicely and back-hand the guy in the face as he gets to close, making him stumble back. As he does so, I bent down, lifting my foot up, kicking him it the jaw and hit the wall.
I stand up straight and turn to him. I turn my head over my shoulder towards Lauren "Your surname is Irwin... Isn't it," I ask as my anger starts to boil. She nods and wipes the tears from her face.
I turn back to the guy with fury in my eyes and nostrils flaring. I lift him by his shirt against the wall and make him look into my soul. He starts shivering the longer he looks into my eyes. Suddenly a dragon creeps up to my eyes through my soul and snaps at him, making him jump. All this from looking into my eyes.
I continue my stare into his eyes that are not allowed to turn away as my demons peer into him own. He crawls back and I crouch over his scared body as I open my fanged mouth wide and suck all the happiness from his eyes, exchanging it with fear and paranoia.
I then forcefully place my palm on his head and give him most of my worst memories along with some of the demons from my eyes that will lurk inside him until he kills himself. It's a trick only some dragons can do; you learn it from the shaman of a tribe, like my grandfather.
I lift him with my hand that's on his head and hit his head against the wall, making him pass out. I turn to a shocked looking Lauren and hold out my hand to her. I know where she lives so I'll just take her home, it's already getting dark.
She hugs me and we continue to walk down the street. I had wiped off all her make-up, making her look younger. She told me that she was 14. I also learned that Harry was actually 11. Amy was turning 9 this year too.
It's already almost time for the party when we get to Lauren's house. I keep thinking it would have been faster if I didn't throw a fit, then Ashton could've drove me back, but then it might have been likely that Lauren could have gotten raped. Never mind, I regret nothing.
Lauren refused to leave my side so I just went to my house and climbed through the window in dragon form with Lauren on my back. I had the ability to make myself smaller and larger.
I can tell Luke was it the house since I hear him nervously and impatiently shuffling downstairs yelling at Calum to find me but they don't have my number. My mom massaged me about that and laughed when she called me from the bathroom so Luke wouldn't hear.
I quickly change into my bikini from inside my closet and pulled on a flowing black dress over it. I left my hair loose and put on some black gladiator wedged sandals, and then do me and Lauren's make-up.
I then went to Ashton's house with Lauren, helping her get up to her window. She was getting changed into her bikini while I found her a blue flowing dress since it'll match her eyes.
I did her hair into a fishtail French braid and we headed out the window again, just in time, cause Ashton came barging in looking frantic. "Lauren?!" he whisper yells "Are you here?!" he whisper yells again. He looks panicked again and exits the room. Lauren and I make it to Nyx's house.
The party is going on as planned and everyone seems to be having a blast. Lauren quickly takes my phone and puts her number, giving it back to me, full on smiling. I mirror her smile and she drags me into the party.
My and Lauren's make up is glow in the dark and the houses lights are off, but mostly all the people glow in the dark because of the UV lights.
I go out to the backyard and see the pool that's glowing blue for some reason. Did they get plankton or something?
There are these drum things on the corners of the pool with all kinds of coloured glowing paint on them and people are smashing bandaged drumsticks on them, making the glowing paint smash onto the person hitting the drum. Luckily they're wearing goggles.
There are some coloured looking shots in test tubes on a long table, currently being filled by Lexi and Nyx. Everyone is wearing bikinis and swimsuits. Suddenly I hear giggling and my sisters annoyed voice whining for someone to stop.
I turn around to see Amy being sprayed by Harry with a water gun filled with glowing blue water. Lauren sees this and laughs. "Harry has a crush on that girl," Lauren laughs.
"That girl... Is my little sister," I sigh and head towards them. Amy notices me and runs into my arms. Lauren pats Harry on him head as if he was a dog or something, making me laugh.
"Luke's back at our house looking for you," Amy says laughing. "I know, I heard them when I snuck through my window. I look over to were Harry was, but he's disappeared. Fucked up kid...
Something suddenly jumps on me making me and the thing fall into the pool, dress and all. When I resurface I see Laya's 'I'm sorry but I didn't do it smile' Of course it was her.
Mostly Bring Me The Horizon, Metallica, LMFAO and House music was playing along with a bunch of Paramore.
I splash Laya in the face with the water and exit the pool, pulling off the wet dress from my body. I hear a few people stop talking mid-sentence and see a few guys looking at me large-eyed. I self-consciously look down at my body. Nothing's wrong with it... I'm not perfect, but I guess I'm okay.
I shrug it off and help Laya out of the pool. Her bikini is golden with red scale marks on it, while mine is Galaxy, the stars glow in the dark as well as the dust surrounding them.
A few girls sent me glares. "Oh yeah!" Laya says pulling me toward the house and toward a girl wearing a black bikini with green and purple splotches that glow in the dark on it.
"This is Nariska, she's one of Nyx's dragon friends," Laya says. I then notice 2 other girls looking at me next to Nariska. "Oh yeah! This is Symone and Jasmine. Symone is also a dragon and friends with Nyx, but Jasmine is a siren and one of Lexi's friends," Laya explains.
Nariska who I'm calling Risky looks like she doesn't give two flying fucks about the party and clearly doesn't like people. Her hair is a light brown, her face is round and her eyes are a shocking blue colour with a hint of purple in them. She's about 5"1 like Lexi and Nyx.
Symone is a really skinny girl with prominent features and dark blond hair with dark brown kind eyes, giving her that sweet but dangerous look. She's about 5"4 and has the body of a model. She's wearing a blue riffles bikini as well as some blue gladiator sandals.
Jasmine is curvier with dark blond hair that has light blond highlights in them. She's wearing thick blue classes and has dull blue eyes. She's about 5"3. She's wearing a blue full swimsuit with a dolphin on the chest and some flip flops, with her feat pointed inward in an awkward stance.
"They're all shorter than me though because I'm 5"8, but with the heeled gladiator sandals I'm about 5"9 which doesn't help because of the fact that Luke is 6"4 or something and is still taller than me. God I need taller friends that are female...
I give them a quick wave and walk back over toward Lauren and Amy. Lauren grabs my phone from her pocket and puts in another contact named Ash. "Is that Ashton's number?" I ask confused. "Yeah, just tell him I'm here so he can come enjoy the party," she tells me and I quickly text him and give it to Amy who will keep it in her backpack that's on her back.
I feel a hand on my shoulder and turn around to see... Gale... "Uh... Hey Mia... Um... I'm sorry about freaking on you about my brother... And that I uh... Almost killed your mother... twice... But can I maybe have a second chance... Just for tonight?" he asks hopefully. Really...-_-
"Let's speak in private," I say and head for the side of the house that no one was at. He hit me against the wall of the house, choking me. "I don't believe for a second that you don't know who killed my brother.... You know because you saw the dragon that did it and you're protecting it because of your love for dragons. So tell me... Who the hell killed my brother?" he says dangerously.
I look past him and see snowflake standing there in a white bikini with blue snowflakes that glow on them. She pulls something from her thighs like they were magically inside her thighs and I notice it was two blue daggers.
"You should be afraid..." I tell Gale and he narrows his eyes to me "Of an overgrown lizard?" he laughs. "No... Of me... and the demon behind you," I tell him.
Snowflake turns into this smoky black dust person holding the daggers and just as Gale turns around she stabs him in the gut, making him hit the wall next to me.
I make my face scaly and my teeth sharp. "My boyfriend killed your brother... Now I'm going to kill you," I say dangerously, bending the truth a bit and bite a large chunk from his neck, ripping his head off in the process.
Snowflake grabs the head and the body and disappears in a cloud of dust. I walk over to the tap at the side of the house and wash off my mouth and hands, along with my neck and chest where the blood squirted.
I go back to the pool area and walk as if nothing happened. When Nyx sees me, she runs over with some blue glow I the dark lipstick and puts it on my lips and hands me the lipstick to use often and runs back to the tubes of alcohol.
I go back to Lauren and see a frantic Ashton heading her way too, but I reach her first and stand next to her. She hasn't noticed Ashton yet. "So how'd your conversation go with your eX Amy told me that he was your eX, sorry," she says smiling.
"I ripped his head off because he tried to kill my family," I say through my teeth that were in a fake smile. Her eyes grow wide and she makes an 'O' with her mouth.
Suddenly Ashton engulfs her in a tight hug "Where the hell were you?!" he asks frantically. He turns to me "You did this didn't you? What did you guys do?!" he asks bewildered.
My eyes go stony and Laurens eyes are angered. She was about to yell at Ashton when I went all up in his face, pushing him away from Lauren but glaring at him.
"I showed her how to break someone's head into the wall if that helps," I tease him angrily. "WHAT?!" Ashton asks even more bewildered. "you know what? Today was a long day and you seem warmed up... Let's cool you down a notch," I say and grab him by the throat, lifting him up and throwing him in the pool.
I turn around and take Lauren by the arm as she bursts out in a laughing fit. I then give her to Laya, Risky, Symone and Jazzy. I turn around and grab a duck floaty that squeaks and throw it at Ashton's head. Apparently Ashton has a fear of ducks >:)
He hits the duck away and gets out of the pool. I can see he's trying really hard not to pounce and kill me. "Oh... And just for your information... I saved your sister's life today... If I hadn't walked home she would've been raped and killed... Now I'm going to ask you nicely... To fuck off and leave me the fuck alone, asshole," I say and fucking mean it.
I walk over to the table of coloured alcohol and down a few from the test tubes, placing them back in their holder. Alcohol doesn't affect me that much, but it does take away my anger for a few.
I turn around and hear Nyx gasp and turn my around, looking at all my tattoos "I love it!" she squeals and pushes me from the table and into a person. I look up to see Luke visually calm down with Harry next to him "I told you she was here," Harry says smugly.
Luke looks down at my body and his eyes turn a dark shade of shocking blue. I start to feel self-conscious again as I cover up as much of my body as I can.
He takes me in his arms "Are you okay...?" he asks into my neck. "Yeah..." I whisper into him. "Then why do you have finger print bruises on your neck?" he asks angered but voice cracking. I look up at his frowning face.
"My uh... eX that tried to kill my mother asked about the dragon that killed his twin brother... You..." I ask and he closes his eyes as if it had hurt him. He then places his head in my neck and breaths deeply.
"It's alright... Snowflake and I took care of it... We sent him back to hell," I say shamefully looking down at the floor. I don't regret killing him, but I do feel ashamed that Luke might actually see what a monster I really am.
Luke lifts my chin with his finger and places him lips against mine. Shocked, I only stand there holding his waist. He pulls away and looks down shamefully "I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that, we're not even dating..." he says as if it pained him.
I shoo off Harry and tilt Luke's head up with my index finger "That never stopped you before..." I whisper. "I love you..." he says shocking me and making my blood run cold and face go pale.
When my blood starts moving again, my cheeks sting indicating that I was blushing. I nuzzle my head into Luke's shirt and shake my head "How can you love me...?" I ask at the verge of tears.
He lifts my face up with both his hands on my cheeks as my eyes started to fill with tears "I'm a monster..." I whisper, my voice breaking.
"I'm a monster too... I just want one chance to be able to pick up your shattered heart and mend it back together...It might not look as well as it did before, but I can try... I'll even give you my heart if you want...although you already stole it without noticing..." Luke says looking into my eyes with what I think is love in his eyes alongside hope.
"Can we take it slow...?" I ask my voice wavering. "Baby steps..." he replies trying to smile. I look down at the floor and then back up at Luke "Alright..."
