Chapter 5

Finally school was over, picking up my jacket, I searched for my phone within a like I expected I found it.

I texted Nina asking if she needed me to pick her up?, but she replied with a simple no..

Just No?, I expected another text from her but what I didn't except was Sam's text , call me please, and other texts I haven't found the energy to read.

Walking to my car I dialed her contact and she answers on the third ring.

" Hey ". I mumbled, getting into my car.

" Atlas". She mumbled her voice low and tired, made me stop, listening to her low breathing.

" You left". She whispered lightly followed by a small laugh, I could hear the pain in her words, and my Rough guess was she had been crying.

" Yeah". I answered, letting out a deep sign.

" Atlas Grey". She whispered and I hated this I hated the so many emotions behind her every words.

" I told you Don't fall for me, I can't give you that closure". I mumbled trying to loosen the tick air between us it made me uncomfortable.

" I guess I never listen". She said laughing, telling me she had in fact been crying.

" sam". I called but she stopped me.

" Atlas, was there really no time, I pushed your heart, was there really not a time you thought about me and smiled, not a time I made you feel something?, was there really never an us?". My hands on my phone held I tight, I close my eyes, my left hand in my, listening to the hurt full silence.

" You did make me feel something Samantha Daniel, you innocence and pure heart did something to me, but darling innocence doesn't work well with me". I mumbled ending the the call, taking in a deep breath.

Sam stared at the blank phone and her tears fell, she looked like a mess right now but she didn't care she just wanted to get it out.

" I love you". She chocked out, her tears not stopping.

" Why didn't you tell him?". She looked up and found her by the door.

" Because I love him". Her Mom smiled.

" And it hurts mom, so much". Sam whispered getting up, but in seconds she was on the ground blacked out.

" Sam". Her mom cried out, running to her.

Stepping on the gas, his drive was crazy telling everyone he had a death wish, maybe he did a little, and finally he pulled over, staring at the house he calls home now, taking a deep breath he got down walking in.

" How was your first day?". My mom asked, by my side, literally popping out of nowhere, I didn't see her there.

" Okay". Came my dry response.

" Just okay?". She asked, trying again.

" Well here, except from the kids you paid to make my life annoying". He mumbled.

" Atlas they were supposed to be your friends".

" Don't remember asking for one". I grumbled taking the stairs.

" Atlas Grey". That madee stop my steps, well the women in my life definitely love my full name today.

" Atlas, we are in a new town new beginning, you need to act like a teenager, have friends, have a girlfriend, sneak out to party, then get in trouble when caught". She started.

" Here I want you to be just Atlas, not Atlas Grey". She pleaded.

" Am not following".

" I know you grew up to be a man, to be Atlas Grey, and am not even surprised you felt the need to take a gun to your first day, but Atlas we've left that life, just be a teen". I stared at her, not knowing how to respond to that, so I just walked away.

Getting into my room, I took my phone out just to get a text from Nina, she would be coming home the old fashion way, is she walking?.

Today was crazy and I need a shower.

Getting I didn't expect to see was Lili in my room.

" What are you doing here?". I asked in my usual voice when am not talking to Nina, which I have been told is cold.

" Sorry, your mom let us in". Lili explained walking closer.

" Us?". I asked my eyes narrowed, she can't be serious, and by she I meant my mom.

" Yeah, me and Ricky, we figured we do our homework together, you know fun stuff".

" Am sorry, get out".

" Atlas, come on don't be like that". Speak of the devil and she appears, she walks in with Rick, holding a bowl of cookies and Rick some wine, what's this a sleep over?.

" You guys have fun". She mumbled smiling, but giving me the look that screams please behave, and walked out.

" So how did you enjoy your first day, you ran off and we couldn't find you". Rick started off, and I just scrambled through my closet looking for a t-shirt, and I found one.

" Had fun?". Rick asked again.

" What are you guys my babysitter?".

" Well we won't have to be if you aren't such a dick ". Lili grumbled, making me narrow my eyes at her.

" Look, I get it you're fucked up, fucked really bad, so damn bad your mom is literally begging us to be your friends, you think we came here cause we wanted to?, Hell no, I have been nice, and I won't mind being a bitch, so you could either sit your perfect ass down, let's make this work, or you could be a dick and die alone, your choice". I liked her already.

" We didn't get any homework". I mumbled, trying to hide my smirk.

" Then let's put this baby to use". She mumbled taking the wine off rick's hands.

" Truth or dare?".

" You want to play that between two guys". I asked, she was surprising.

" Trust me I have made much more dangerous choice's, and plus aren't you guys the gentlemen, so sit ". I chuckled and took my sit.

Nina stared at the black car that has been there, for the past ten minutes she has been waiting on Ophelia, she was no car expect but from the look of it, it was expensive

" Hey new girl". Nina turned and found Chad, he was quite popular the football captain, a smart ass, and handsome , and on just her first day he was what everyone talked about him, and she kinda noticed his eyes on her the whole time in school, he walked towards her with a charming smile, ment to sweep every girl off their feet..

" Hey princess I never got your name". He said the minute he was in front of her.

" Nina, Nina Grey". She told him, her blush evident.

The shadow in the car stared at them and tighten his fist, letting out a curse under his breath.

" Well you know me, boring old Chad". He was trying to be charming.

" You're not boring". Nina corrected, his smile widen.

" You're sweet Nina, but am starving". Nina blinked at him trying to understand what he meant by that, he moved closer and stared into her eyes.

" Stay still, don't move, don't make a sound". Nina stared confused, while he crossed the space between them.

" I won't do that if I were you ". A dark voice behind Nina ordered, making Chad stop, and Nina Turing to a face she thought she would never see again.

" And you are?". Chad asked.

" Let me introduce myself". He said, before throwing a wooden stake in lighten speed, stabbing Chad in his shoulder making him groan in pain.

" It's xaren, you might have heard of me little vampire". Chad eyes go wide, before disappearing, more like running, but like the stake in a speed of lightening.

" My head's spinning, what's going on?". Nina asked, and she felt like she was falling, and when xaren caught her she knew she was.

" Easy". Xaren whispered while Nina blinked trying to stay awake but she failed and the darkness took her, the same time Ophelia appeared.

" What happened". Ophelia asked staring at the unconscious Nina in xaren hands.

" Just One order keep your eyes on her". Xaren hissed out, making Ophelia sign and watched him take her into the car.

" What a dick". She mumbled under her breath before walking towards them.

" Truth or dare Atlas". Lili asked filling up a glass with wine.

" Truth". Atlas answered unbothered.

" How old were you when you had your first sex". She asked taking a sip off the glass.

" Eleven". Came Atlas answer making Lili choke on her drink and Rick just stared.

" Are you serious eleven?". Lili asked again just to be sure he wasn't playing with them.

" Yes". He answered and Lili blinked.

" You really are something". Rick mumbled.

" Okay Atlas your turn".

" Truth or dare".

" Dare". Lili answered.

" Place those ice cubes in your pussy". And again Lili blinked, and Rick chuckled.

" You can't be serious". Lili mumbled, but Atlas just stared and Rick couldn't hold his laugh anymore.

" Scratch that this is the worst decision I have ever made". She grumbled grabbing some ice cubes and walking into the bathroom.

" I see you kids are having fun". Atlas looked up and found his dad?.
