《Sway(Wattys 2015)》Deal with the devil
Advertisement
"Question 1"
"I'm not answering anything so don't bother"
"I'll make a deal with you ok, if you answer 5 questions I'll tell you something no one else knows"
"Not even the boys?" I challenge
"Nope just me,deal?"
"What's with you and all these deals"
"Do we have a deal?" before I answer I stop and think about what I'm doing, do I risk the embarrassment or find out a secret that no one else knows. The questions might not be that bad and if he tells me his secret I could use it against him.
"Alright deal"
"Good"
"So...." I take a sip from my drink ,to distract myself from the torture I was about to experience.
"You ever kissed a boy?" it would be useless lying to him , I made a deal and I was going to keep it.
"Yes I have actually"
"Tongue?" He pressures.
"Once"
"Question 2"
"Woah that's question number 3"
"No it isn't"
"Yes it is, there were two questions asked"
"Fine, don't cry about it"
"I won't"
"So does that mean you've had a boyfriend or are you one of those sluts"
"Excuse me,I was not a slut and yes I've had a boyfriend"
"What about sex?"
"No I haven't"
"Last question"
"That's 5"
"I have one left ,the boyfriend thing was just out of curiosity"
"Whatever"
"How do I make you feel?" That was the question I did NOT want to hear, I had to think of something else ,I knew my heart was beginning to race just thinking about what to say. The thing was I had no idea how he made me feel, his intimidating and belittling behaviour makes me feel stupid but angry at the same time, but whenever he's smiles it makes me weak at knees.But I'm certain that there's no feelings there, he brings more trouble then it's worth, Ivan Stone is beyond broken and there's no one who can fix him.

"Well at least I know I make you speechless"
"You don't make me feel anything except angry"
"I'm sorry did you say horny" he joked whilst pulling on his ear.
"No"
"Do I make you weak in the knees"
"No!" my heart was beating so fast it was like he read my mind.
"Liar.Your hearts beating so fast , I can see it thumping thru your shirt"
"It's because you're aggregating me"
"Oh Rogue, you have no idea what I'm capable off, what I could do.All it takes is a little touch and it will send you over the edge , you'll be craving my touch even my very presence, you'll be putty in my hands just like every other female to walk this earth"
"Enough"
"There's no point trying to hide it , I know it's true, consider it a vampire thing"
"You don't know what you're talking about"
His ego was one of his many flaws and it was driving me insane.
"Oh but I do my love, I know how your little brain works, don't you see I win"
"What are you talking about" I ask with my eyebrows furrowed.
"The one thing you swore to never do, you let your guard down, you trusted me and now I'm in your head"
"Shut up!" I snap
"Make me!" He taunts
"Im not playing your stupid games"
I quickly interrupt ,I get up from the chair and stomp out of the cafe.Im going to be stuck with him for a week, I need to stay away from him ,he's already in my head.I walk straight to the car, instead of getting in the front I got in the back and waited for them to come back. They both shortly returned with bags full of food and other supply's, Nicole got I'm the back with me and Colt got in the front.Ivan suddenly appeared in the drivers seat causing me and Nicole to jump.

Once again we were off ,me and Nicole talked for a little while before we both began to get sleepy.
When I woke up it was dark outside , I couldn't see our surroundings but it was so quite.
"Where are we?"
"The forest" Colt replied, the car came to a stop.Both of the boys got out of the car,i tried to wake Nicole but she wouldn't budge, instead Colt opened the door and carried her out. I also got out the car.
The car lights lit up the forest but there was nothing there, Ivan stepped forward he picked up a sharp object and cut his hand , he let the blood drip onto the floor.Out of no where a cottage appeared, it was too dark to describe the outside but I was guessing it was wooden and old.
"Stay here" Ivan said whilst he walked towards the door. The door opened and a dark figure walked out, they talked for a little while before Ivan returned.
"We can stay here ,until they have the cure.Take Nicole in Colt " Colt nodded his head and walked towards the cottage.I was about to go in until I remember we left our bags in the car, I turned back round and went to the car to help Ivan with the bags.
I avoided conversation as I dragged some bags into the cottage.It was what I expected when I stepped inside ,it was a typical cottage there were wooden yet modern furniture around the room, fireplaces ,pictures ,bedrooms it looked like a normal house besides all the positions , voodoo equipment and funny smells.
A middle aged women walked towards us dressed in a long skirt, belly top and scarf.
"Hello I'm Rosalie, Ivan informed me of your problem, you are all more then welcome to stay here until I have prepared the potion"

My Good Friend Murphy
***Disclaimer*** I wrote and am writing this purely for my own amusement. That means that this could have major revisions done to it sporadically, it has more grammar errors than even the most mentally stable grammar nazi could withstand, and will not update at all regularly. This is an ad-hoc fun experimental work with forced motives, plotholes, and static characters. Don't expect too much. That said, this mutated mistake of a short novella follows a ditzy MC who has been transported to a new world with the dubiously useful skills origin and enigma and the obnoxiously imbalanced skill, traveler. If you'd like more incentive to give it a shot, you will never get spoilers about the plot because there isn't one (Actual synopsis coming soon, relative to eternity)
