The Truth Lies Beneath Your Eyes (13 page)

“Uh! I’m like in boxers in a tank top and
your half naked!” I laugh.

“Not to mention that I’m still in the room!”
Sunny laughs and he jumps.

“Sorry Sunny,” He blushes and me and Sunny
laughs.

“Eh, whatever,” she mumbles and goes back to
talking to Angel, who is also laughing cause I guess he can see us
in the background.

Dear Journal,

The first day of summer vacation!!!!! Yes! I
am officially a sophomore! Yes!

My dad isn’t here anymore and me and
Christophe still go out and I’m still

Friends with the guys and Sunny and Kitty and
what not. This year was so

Crazy I never thought that I would make it to
the end of the year to be

Honest we’re supposed to be going to the
beach today sooo I ‘m making

Sandwhiches and hijacking all the fruits from
the fridge. My mom really

Does seem to like Christophe, not in the fake
way either. The legitimate

“He seems like a good kid” type of like.
Which is really cool cause I’m

Allowed to go and hang out with him most of
the time. Of to the beach,

Later, Amethyst Lyell Alexander

“Later mom!” She yelled while running out the
door.

“Ami!” Sunny and Kitty yelled once she saw
her.

“Beach!” Amethyst responded.

“Hello ladies” Amethyst recognized Alex’s
voice and spun around.

“Hey Alex, Alias, Christophe and…What’s your
name?” Amethyst asks noticing a girl standing next to Alex about
his age.

“This is Noelle, Noelle this is Amethyst,
Sunny and Kitty,” He says in his very Alexander way.

“She’s cute, I approve and really like her
hair,” I say and Noelle laughs and Alex smirks.

The beach is hot crowded and amazingly fun
and after two straight hours of swimming Amethyst was content lying
on her towel next to Alias.

“Hey Alias?” She asked even though his eyes
were closed.

“Yeah?” He yawns.

“What’s the matter?” She asks.

“Absolutely nothing Ami” He says with a
smile.

“You sure man? You look a little too chill,”
She laughed.

“No such thing as too chill in summer, Ami!
Remember?” He laughs and squirts her with his water bottle,
laughing.

“Ugh! I just dried off!” She yelps. “You’re
dead!” She says and he takes off running toward the ocean and
Amethyst follows close behind. Eventually the sun went down and we
had to rush Noelle home, and Amethyst spent the night at the house
where the guys lived during the school year.

Three O’ clock am

“
Just thought you would want to say
goodbye to him and all,”
Amethyst hears a voice though her
sleep and slowly wakes up. She sees ten long sharp blades in
Christophe who has been pushed on to her floor.

“Dad…and you people…and girl who wants my
boyfriend…What. Do. You. Want?” Alias and Alex walk into the room
looking emotionless and Amethyst doesn’t know what to feel.

“We’re going to kill him,” Her father says.
Which is when she realizes that she isn’t sleeping and the smell of
blood in the room is enough to be highly nauseating.

“Why aren’t you fighting back?” She cries as
she asks Christophe who even though he’s lost pints of blood, is
not weakening and looks as if he feels no pain but in his
heart.

“Because I deserve this, my time has come and
I still don’t deserve you,” He says sadly, as If the words hurt
more than the wounds. Now she is standing.

“What are you talking about!?” She kicks and
punches and bites at the people and they all fall easily to her
power, which is making her vision rainbow neon and the crimson red
with rage. But her father feels nothing.

“What the hell?” She says.

“You are highly powerful, but as I am your
superior, you can cause no harm to me,” He laughed. “Let them kill
me…and promise me you won’t listen to what they tell you,” He says
through gritted teeth while having another sharp long blade in his
spine.

“I told you already, this boy is trouble…and
now because of him…you have to be hurt,” Her father shakes his
head.

“How about you ask him why you really met?
How about you ask him what his parents are? How about you ask him
if he
really
cares about you and not the fact that you could
give him all the power he wants? About how he’s the reason that the
caliber-” Her father pauses and Christophe sobs and looks up at her
with pleading eyes.

“ENOUGH!!!!!” Alias shouted and everybody
turned.

“Free him, I give you my word…I sacrifice
myself in his place,” Alias says calmly and kneels into position to
be executed in Christophe’s place. Everyone in the room stops
breathing and Christophe mouths

“Don’t do it” to Alias.

“Under one condition, the eldest boy promises
to tell Amethyst what he did to cause this, and when asked to pay
for his sin at a later date, he does so,” her father says. Alias
looks upward toward him,

“As long as she doesn’t have to suffer, I
agree” Alias says. They remove the blades from Christophe who is
shell shocked and while doing so Amethyst stops crying long enough
to ask Alias a question.

“Why?” Is all she says and he smiles and then
laughs.

“I would do anything for you. Anything for
you to be happy and keep your smile…even if it mean I’ll never
smile again. I don’t love you…I’m in love with you,” he says. And
then the first blade goes in and he’s still smiling.

The End…hope you liked the story XD
