◆ OSWALD'S P.O.V ◆ - CONTINUED -I awoke to an alarmingly excruciating headache and groaned loudly into the pillow. It didn't help much, only caused the headache to worsen. My eyes opened and snapped back shut. I squeezed them tightly to keep the bright glares coming through the window from blinding me as the pounding in my head escalated. My eyes too throbbed horribly which didn't help in the case of the already massive headache, which felt as if I was being cruelly jabbed in the head.I gripped the blanket and pulled it up over my head and buried my face in the pillows. They smelt of lemons for some reason and I sniffed the blankets. It too smelt of lemons for some reason, like lemon scented laundry detergent.When did Helen start using lemon scented anything?I rolled over in bed with my eyes closed fighting the stabbing pain but I was warm and cozy at least. Something felt wrong. How comes I couldn't hear Adam and Brett? Wai

The oven door opened releasing sparsely any steam. My teeth ground on each other threatening to break and my hands coiled into a fist as my heart thumped in my chest like a caged animal trying to break out of its cage. The dish hit the countertop with a loud clatter and I looked down at it enraged."ADAM! YOU PIECE OF SHIT!"The shrill cry ripped through the air at the top of my lungs and I could hear myself breathing. It suddenly made sense why the asshole had departed in such a hurry, the piece of human waste had stolen my food.I stormed out of the kitchen and headed to the stair, roiling. Once I reached the landing my footsteps could be heard from a mile off, thundering down the hallway to his bedroom. The door flew open with a loud bang and I bulldozed my way inside. Adam's room r

   I was standing outside of the classroom when the bells chimed a second time. An unmistakable frown wafted over my facial features as students flooded the corridors in pairs and groups chatting away loudly. Hailey was one of them. I had forgotten we shared this class and I rolled my eyes and grimaced in annoyance. She had an I-dare-you-to-not-stare-at-me sort of air about her. The false grin she wore and the way she was batting her long eyelashes -as if she was on a catwalk with a thousand cameras on her- made her seem hugely egotistical, like Blade. I wasn't buying her supposedly friendly act. Hailey was nothing short of conceited and her horrible pretences otherwise were dead giveaways. Her seven cronies had joined her and she tossed her hair to the side and flung her head back in laughter, at something someone said. The other girls mimicked her actions. 

Brett laughed aloud and craned to get a better view."Did you hear me," Adam calls again, this time he was standing at the door, "be home before midnight!"I scowled and continued walking."Have fun at your kiddy party!" he added in a mocking tone."Whatever asshole..." I grumble under my breath and continued walking.The Beetle left the driveway and not long after I was pulling into the schools parking lot for the second time today. Never in a million years did I imagine that I'd be spending my night at a school party but Ossey had won me over. He seemingly convinced me that it wasn't as bad as I was making it out to be. The parking lot was almost full and I exited the car and smoot

It was only the second day of the week, yet I was praying for the weekend to hurry up and present itself. Up and down the corridors were whispers and laughter of all the fraternizing that took place after the school party and whatever hell hole half of the population seemed to have enjoyed a proper weekend. Whispers of some new gossip were being shared along the hallways and yet the only thing on my mind was spreading more misery in the life of Blade Collins.The plan I had devised pushed its way yet again to the front of my mind eager to make it happen. My black heart filled with joy at the thought of getting one more on Blade. The bells had chimed a minute earlier and people were too busy sharing gossips to bother hurrying off to class. Some girl in a pink shirt with a denim jumper dress and rather big grey eyes dropped her gaze as I walked by. At the mouth of the staircase the attenti
