(Warning: this chapter doesn't go into detail but mentions topics about Ianthe and her ex that some people may not like. Ianthe slept around so,.....some things may be mentioned but it's not anything bad but I thought I should at least mention it)

This chapter hasn't been edited for grammar.

  
Merwin
I feared Lucy would be angry with me but she said nothing as she came home. She kept her dress on and collapsed on my bed.

"I'm sleeping here," she spoke. Lucy did that sometimes. She said she didn't want to be alone for the dark was scary, so she came in my room. I asked her why; I was her little sister.

"But you're as tall as a giant," she'd say "you'll protect me and I don't want to be alone,"

She collapsed in my bed and pulled a cover over her. I knew she didn't want to talk so I thought I'd just ask her about it in the morning.

"Hey Mer," she whispered "I met him," before I could reply she was sound asleep.

"So, was there any cute guys?" I asked her in the morning causing her to laugh.

"Merwin they were all drunk and no good but I can see why you'd ask since your boyfriends ugly," Lucy told me.

"Shut up, he's not!"

"Everyone knows the only reason you date him is because he's taller than you," she smirked when I didn't reply. But that wasn't the reason.
My boyfriend, Cameron, just transferred last year to play basketball.
  Lucy hated him from that point on, saying that's no reason to switch schools. He's in her grade and met me last year at a tennis match. Jermone was playing so when Lucy and I went to watch, Cameron was there and starting talking to me about basketball. So,....we got along great and have been together since. His twin sister, Leia, is outspoken and very loud but seems to like me. Sometimes I think she likes me too much since she use't to have a crush on Lucy. Yeah......
But overall Cam was a good boyfriend, Lucy just didn't understand. Besides since James Potter broke up with her she hasn't been the same. It's almost like that boy was a drug for her; like he was air and she needed him. I think Lucy was in love with him. To this day, she stops when she sees him and stares in awe and nostalgia, as she squints tears out of her eyes. She's trying so hard to move on, but I guess when someone breaks you, picking up the pieces is harder than one could imagine.

    Ianthe
Seeing Will again brought back too many old memories.

"Ok what's wrong?" Harley asks as she stormed into my room, Lydia wasn't far behind her.

"Weren't you and Thorne going out tonight?" I ask her. She shrugs and says I was more important. "I'm fine!" I tell her

"Is this cause of that guy in the bar?" Harley asks.

"What guy?" Lydia asks looking at me with concern.

"Will," Harley spoke, hearing his name made me feel guilt and longing.

"Was that the guy that took you to prom?" She asks, I nodded.

(Flash back)

I got up and began gathering my stuff. This boy was so innocent, too innocent and I was his first. If I don't leave soon he'll cling to me . And I can't be tied down by someone or something. It's not worth it for they won't stay with me. I'm a monster on the inside and they'll just judge me because of it. I'm ugly on the inside and once he realizes that he won't want me. Besides I can do better anyway.

   "Where are you going?" He asks as he raised up then realized he was naked and pulled a blanket over him. "Did we........did that really happen last night?" He looks at me and grins like crazy. "With you,...... I did it with a beautiful girl like you!!!"

  "Bye will," I say as I walked toward the door.

"Wait what's your name?!" He asks looking at me as if I was a queen.

"It doesn't matter,"

"But how am I supposed to see you again if I don't know your name?" He asks as his face crumpled.

  "That's it, you won't see me again," then I left.

   I never thought I'd see will again but then I ran into him at my highschool.

  "Hey it's you!" He screams and he runs up to me in the hallway.

"Hey listen," I look at him dead in the eye "what happens at the bar stays at the bar, ok nothing happened between us," he shook it off and continuing walking with me.

  I eventually got to where I could trust will and I'd tell him everything. I told him my shame I felt after chaining a red haired fae named Lucien to a tree, and about the time I kissed the Joker to destroy my sister.

  "What do you wanna be when you grow up?" He asks me one day. We were in  highschool so shouldn't we be grown up? Was my first thought. But then again aren't we all children, at least on the inside until we have our own children.

  "Harley," I replied, he looked at me with interest and I told him everything, from that point on he became my rock and my foundation, it wasn't even lust that was keeping me with him it was just........him.

   "Ok, so, I don't know how to explain everything," I tell them, Lydia collapsed on my bed and grasped my hand.

"We're here to listen," Harley spoke as she sat with me.

"I miss him and I'm not worthy of him and........I don't know what I feel. Is this just nostalgia? Or love? Or lust or something? How am I supposed to know?" I question as tears form in my eyes. "I'm so confused," I say as tears fall of frustration.

"Well,..... Talk to him and maybe then you can find out," Harley suggested with a smile.

"Love can be very confusing, sometimes it's a feeling but it's more than that. True love is anyway," Lydia began.

"Thorne?" I asked, she shook her head.

  "We're not  enough to be love yet, no matter what I thought before Jack and I wasn't either," she pauses "I lost Eugene, he was my love but I'm building from that and.....that's what you have to do, Ianthe. Build from the broken," I grin and hug my sister, Harley jumps in to, making it a group hug.
   I'll just wait and see what happens with will. As long as I have my sisters I'll make it out alive.
