Chapter 43
Mot's Pov
I sit beside Dianite silently. "Mot you should go home." Blaze says without looking at me.
I look over at Dianite who has his gaze pinned on his feet.
"I can't go."
"Then at least get some sleep." Blaze leaves, storming up the tall spiral staircase.
I lay down on the cold ground, my back turned to Dianite.
I let tears roll down my cheeks. I try my hardest to keep my sobs quiet but its becoming harder by the second.
Dianite's Pov
I can see Mot struggling to hide his emotions. All these years he never said anything.
I put my hand on Mot's trembling arm. He looks over his shoulder at me and I try to smile.
Jordan's Pov
I lay next to sleeping Tom. Poor thing had to take night quil to sleep.
I took the night quil too, but it didn't work. I've given up on sleeping now.
I hear giggles coming from the kitchen. Chrissy and Nade are such cute omg.
I'm happy she found someone who will accept her. Much like I did.
Ianite's Pov
I watch Spark as he sleeps. Every so often he'll flinch and grab at the needle in his arm.
I hate my brother for doing this to him. Spark didn't deserve this.
He jolts upright and sighs when he sees me. "It was just a dream. Everything's okay." I whisper as tears roll down his face.
"Martha isn't okay."
Martha's Pov
"I DON'T CARE MARTHA! YOU SHOULD WANT TO LOVE ME!" Steve yells angerly.
"I do love you Steve! But only when you're sober. I don't want a relationship like this."
"NOTHING BUT A WORTHLESS WOMAN!"
"Steve I know you don't mean that." I try to hold my own but its becoming quite impossible.
Steve pushes me against the wall and kisses me forcefully. I don't kiss back.
"Steve stop." I mumble between kisses. Steve's kisses travel from my lips to my neck.
"Steve." My attempt to stop him comes out as more of a moan. I'm not very good at this.
Steve attempts to take it another step but I slap him. The only way I know how to get him to stop.
He pulls away his jaw clenched. My heart starts to race.
"You did not just do that." I slide down the wall and stare up at Steve. His fists clenched.
"You're going to regret that Martha." I close my eyes and wait for Steve to hit back.
There's a crash causing my eyes to fly open. Jordan has Steve pinned to the ground!
"YOU WERE GOMNA HIT HER!" Jordan yells angerly.
"I-I-WASN'T GONNA I SWEAR!" Steve cries. My heart breaks. He's crying.
Jordan backs off of Steve who doesn't move.
Jordan's Pov
Martha hides her head in her hands and lets out a sob.
I gently help her to her feet. "Martha I-"
"Save it Steve." I snap and lead Martha towards Dec's.
"He didn't hit me. I promise! He didn't." She sobs as we walk.
The closer we get to Dec's the more she trembles.
"He didn't Jordan. I hit him but he didn't hit me!" I pull Martha into a hug. Her head rests gently against my chest.
"I know, but he was going to. Ianite called me and told me to check on you. I'm glad I did." I sigh its different when Tom has hit me in the past. I can't imagine how scared Martha must be.
"Jordan why do you care about me so much?" Martha asks looking up at me.
"Because we're family now. And family doesn't leave family behind."
Time Skip
I sit on top of a hill and stare out at the sunrise.
Its beautiful. Everything about sunrises makes me smile.
The world worps into a field filled with bright yellow flowers.
A girls laughter echoes throughout the field.
"Jordan come on!" She giggles turning back to look at me.
Anastasia! I had a sister! No I had two! I can't believe I forgot about them!
Anastasia's curly blonde hair and blue eyes bring tears to my eyes.
"Bubba!" I feel hands wrap around my arms. Anastasia on my right Crystal on my left.
Crystal looks like she's gonna cry. She has the same blue eyes as her sister, but her hair isn't curly.
"This isn't real. My bubbas dead."
"No Crystal I'm here! I'm here." I try to calm her down.
"My Jordan died! He went to see daddy!"
The world fades again. Three girls walk hand in hand.
One with curly brown hair, the other two blonde.
All three girls have wings. The brown haired girl sits down with the other two kids.
My stomach knots, its Capsize. With my sisters.
"Capsize tell us about him!" Anastasia pleads. Crystal stays silent.
"He's a hero. Kids you know how you see the other angels walking around with scars on their wrists?" Capsize pauses both girls nod.
"They're superheroes too. They've just returned home. You see when we look down at Jardon it means he hasn't yet returned home. That he's still fighting the villains."
"What about Mr. Cassell?" Crystal asks. I let a tear fall Tom. They know Tom.
"He's Jardon's partner. The one keeping him going. One day Mr. Cassell and Jardon will return home."
"Girls give Capsize some time now. Thank you Capsize." A mother like voice says.
The twins run to her. "Alva!" They say in sync. Andor's mom! Alva! She's taking care of my sisters!
Ianite's Pov
I hold Jordan in my arms. His eyes open and he begins to tremble.
"My sisters, Caps-" his sobs halt his ability to talk.
I let him cry its not long before Tom comes looking for him.
He never went home after bringing Martha over.
"Ianite w-why." He pulls away from me. "I'm so sorry." I whisper Jordan looks away.
"Is Martha okay?" He mumbles without making eyes contact.
"Go home Jordan. Go get some sleep." Jordan nods and takes off towards his house.
