Earth's Elements, Missy [mystery books to read TXT] 📗

I got up.
“ There is a lift down stairs that you put the laundry baskets in and you pull the rope and it goes to the floor,” He smiled. I looked down at the laundry and felt like a complete idiot.
“ I knew that… I just wanted a workout,” I muttered. This made River brake out into louder laughter’s. I got up and covered his mouth. “ Are you trying to wake every one up!” I hissed. He licked my hand and I removed it and wiped it on my shirt. “ SO immature,” I rolled my eyes. River walked past me and made his way up the stairs.. I have to bring all these up there.. I already have them up here. I scrambled up one stair.
“ R- River,” I moaned. He looked back at me with a smirk on his face.
“ Hm?” He smiled.
I looked down and bit my lip.
“ Help me bring these baskets up,” I muttered. He put his hand on his chin and started to tap his foot. “ Please?” I asked.
“ Alright Laphey Daphey,” He smiled. I felt my legs fall from me, and I stumbled down the stairs. That name… he called me. I felt my eyes burn, and river ran next to me.
“ Lilz, im sorry do you not want me to call you that?” he asked. I looked up at him, and I pushed the tears away and I started to crab the laundry but river grabbed my wrists and he held me to him…… “ Lilz look at me!” he whispered. I put my head down and he tilted my head up so I was looking in his eyes.
“ I just want to get the laundry away and go to sleep,” I muffled.
“ Lilz you can’t hide what your feeling or you’ll brake down inside,” He whispered.
“ Im fine,” I smiled.
“ No you’re not. You’re in pain. Not physical but mental pain.”
I looked at him. I started to hit his chest to have him let me go, and he didn’t budge. How can this not hurt? I looked at him.
“ Tell. Me.” He stated. I shook my head. I looked over and saw a pen and I took it and stabbed his arm. Nothing. He just stood there and then looked down and saw that I had stabbed him. He let go of me and backed away.
“ let me see your arm,” I said. He shook his head. I grabbed his arm and there was nothing. He wasn’t hurt. I backed up and looked him in the eyes.
“ Lilz,” He whispered. I shook my head, and walked up the stairs and went into my room, and shut the door. I stabbed him so hard with that pen… didn’t break the skin and he didn’t even know I touched him until he looked down. What… what is he….
Chapter twelve-
The sun beamed through the window, and I covered my face with my pillow and sighed. I leaned up, and swung my feet around the bed, and let them dangle. I reached my hand under my mattress, and took out a box, and held it in my hands. I felt the tears start to build up, and I quickly tried to wipe them away, but they poured down my face. My hands shook and I slowly opened the box revealing the necklace Darien had given me. I held it in my hands, and let the box drop to the ground, and a little smile came across my face when I remembered that night. I opened the locket and read the imprint.
Darien + Lillenette was on the left side of the heart and then their where more letters on the right side. Which read ,I love you Laphey Daphey. I started to choke on my cries, and I held the necklace to my heart, and grasped onto it, and cried. My room filled with the sound of my cries and sniffling, and I felt someone put their hand on my back, and I jumped out of the bed trying to push away the tears but no one was there.
“ Im losing it,” I cried. I wiped away my tears, and ran out of my room, and made my way to the basement. When I got down their I went in the far back and sat on a beanie chair. i pressed the necklace to my heart, and continued to cry.
“ Lilz?” A voice asked. I looked up and saw Johnny standing in front of me. I quickly wiped away my tears.
“ J- Johnny.. I- I didn’t know anyone else w- was down h- he- here,” I muffled. Johnny knelt down next to me and lifted my chin up so I was looking at him.
“ Lilz what happened?” he whispered. I broke down, and he wrapped his arms around me, and I melted into him. I didn’t know what to say, so I just continued to cry, and Johnny held me. After about ten minutes I pulled away from him and he sat down next to me. “ You can talk to me Lilz. I just want you to know that,” He smiled. I let a little smile creep on my face.
“ Well you know im here, because some say I killed someone… but I didn’t. my boyfriend D-,” I tried to say his name but I couldn’t get it out. I let out a sigh. “ My friend he fell of a building when I was up there with him, and people think I pushed him off,” I whispered.
“ What really happened up their?” Johnny asked. This is the first person that has actually asked me what really happened up there. Not even my mom asked me, nor Giles. I guess they just went along with what everyone else said. I pushed him off the roof. I looked at Johnny, and told him everything. I told him about chase and what he did to me, and the about we were at the museum, and darien got pissed and we were up stairs fighting… and then I stopped.
“ Know Im gonna tell you how he fell but don’t call me a liar or else ill kick your ass,” I smiled.
“ I know you’re not a liar,” He said. That made me smile.
“ Well Darien kept saying all this crap… and I was getting so mad, and the wind started to increase and it was like my feelings were in control of the weather or something. Crazy shit… but so on… darien said something to me that just… I got so mad… and… I held it in… but then the wind blew so hard when I was made and it hit darien and he just fell,” I finished. Johnny sat there for a second trying to take everything in.
“ Are you telling me you can control the earths elements?” he asked My eyes widened.
“ Well no I never said that I mean…” I stopped and really thought about it. When I was sad it rained, and when I was made the wind blew so horribly. When I was happy it was sunshine and beautiful outside. I never even… could it… no-
“ Lilz?” Johnny asked. I looked up at him.
“ Can it even be possible?” I muttered. Johnny and I sat there in silence for some time, and Johnny was looking in the corner of the room and I was supposing so I just continued to talk.
“ I mean is it possible? It sounds nuts! Johnny… if it’s true then… am I like a supernatural or something? Oh my god am I a freaking freak show?” I looked at Johnny and he was just staring at the corner of the room, and sweat came down his face, and he was shaking.
“ Johnny?” I whispered. He said nothing. He was starting to scare me. I moved closer to him, and nudged his shoulder and he gasped and flew back. “ Im sorry Johnny I didn’t mean to scare you,” I muttered.
“ Its fine…” He said.
“ Johnny why are you here?” I asked before I even knew what I had just said. I shouldn’t be ease dropping in his life it’s not right. I went to take it back but he cut me off.
“ I see things,” he said. I looked at him confused.
“ What kind of things?” I asked.
“ people… animals…” He whispered. He was looking in the corner of the room.
“ Is there something over their?” I asked. He nodded his head very slowly. “ What is it?”
“ A guy.. he is tall.. black hair… has some black hair on his face… muscles…” He said. The person he was describing sounded like Dar-… No… it can’t be.
“ Johnny,” I said. Nothing. “ Johnny!” I hissed.
“ Im sorry Lilz…” He shook his head. “ he is trying to talk to me,” Johnny whispered. I looked at him, and gripped onto his hand.
“ Johnny… what is he trying to say?” I asked.
Johnny sat there for a minute, and then looked at me confused.
“ He wants to know…” Johnny stopped. “ Why don’t you wear it?” Johnny finished. I looked at him for a minute, and then felt the necklace in my hand and I held it out in front of me.
“ Is that all he said?” I asked.
“ it’s hard to understand him… he fades in and out,” Johnny muttered. I looked at him, and he was sweating like he just took a shower. He was still looking in the corner and trying to talk to Dar-… the thing. I jumped in front of Johnny and wrapped my arms around him.
“ That’s enough,” I whispered. Johnny body melted into mine, and he completely lost control of his body, and I held him so he could sit up. He was exhausted.
“ Come on Johnny you need to go to your room,” I whispered. He nodded his head and I helped him up, and he put his arm around my shoulder and we walked up the stairs, and I ran straight into someone. I looked up at Joanna.
“ Hey…” He stopped when he saw Johnny. “ Johnny man are you OK?” Joanna asked.
“ Joanna help me bring him to his room. He is sick,” I said trying to hold him up. Joanna nodded his head, and ran to my side.
“ What is he sick with?” Joanna asked.
“ Let’s just get him to the room. He isn’t a feather,” I mumbled. We started to stumble up the stairs and I was like a stick compared to him, so I was struggling. I felt him being lifted from my arms, and turned around and saw Patch holding Johnny over his shoulder. My mouth dropped. He is acting like Johnny wears nothing.
“ Are you just going to stand there?” Patch huffed. I snapped back, and scrambled up the stairs. Joanna left because Marie was calling for him. I stood at the door when Patch laid Johnny in his bed. I stood by the door way, and after he laid him on the bed Patch stood there for a couple of seconds and looked at Johnny. Then he turned around and glared at me. this was like a death glare!
“ I ugh.. oh ugh,” I mumbled, and I stumbled back, and started to walk back to my room. I got to my door, and went to go close it, but then a foot stopped it. I looked at the foot, and then saw Patch.
“ Lillenette,” He mumbled.
“ Ugh- Y- Yeah?” I could hardly speak. Every
