《Brightside》Hello darkness my old friend
Advertisement
Arlo has been more clingy than usual, I can't even go to the store without her sending somebody with me and she thinks I don't see security following me. I wear glasses but I'm not fully blind. But I get it she's trying to protect me and the baby but I know she's hiding something important from me and I'll let her keep her little secret for now.
Right now we are at her club and I'm helping her with her finishing touches for this anniversary party that's tomorrow night. It was for the same couple that I saw when I came up here maybe a month or so ago. The party is tomorrow night and I'm really on the fence about whether to go or not.
I mean I have their cakes done and waiting for delivery tomorrow, I wasn't required to be there unless you count being the club owner's girlfriend a requirement to automatically be her date. I didn't tell Arlo yet but I knew she wouldn't mind me staying home and she would make it her mission to come home early to be with me. But then Rowan and Levi won't go cause I'm not there and they don't want me to be left out.
I just don't want them to miss out on fun just because I'm not really feeling it, especially because they won't want to drink cause I can't drink. They won't even smoke because I can't inhale it. I just want them to live their lives, shit have some fun for me and you.
I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a knock on Arlo's office door. Arlo told them to come in and in walked in the assistant. I still have a bad feeling about her but for now I'm just going to be very observant cause no bitch can catch me off guard.
"Good evening, Miss Carson I need your signature right here." She smiled sickly sweet.
Arlo took the paper from her and she attempted to read it but her eyes just looked tired and out of focus.
"Babe do you want me to read it for you?" I asked.
"Please, princess." She said handing me the paper.
I read it word for word cause ain't nobody gonna make my girl sign some shady shit and then get her in some trouble. After I read it I told her it was for the dj she set up to play for the party, she signed it and dismissed her assistant. Arlo still doesn't like her because of our last interaction.
"Are you coming with me to the party?" She asked.
" I want to but at the same time I feel like i'm going to kill the vibe."
"Baby girl how would you kill the vibe?" She asked drawing patterns on my waist.
"Cause I won't be able to drink or anything like that and that's going to stop you all to do that." I explained.
"Baby we just don't want you to feel left out."
"That's the thing I don't mind if y'all drink and have fun, I can still enjoy myself drinking apple juice or something."
"I'm sorry if I made you feel like a debbie downer baby, I promise to take that into consideration but at the same time I'm not going to overdo it like we normally do cause I got to look out for my babies." She said kissing my cheek.

"Fine but i'll go with you to the party."
"I mean if you weren't going I was going to stay home too." She laughed.
"You're literally the host of the party, I couldn't make you stay home." I shook my head.
"Mayne fuck the party, you're more important then that shit."
She twisted my body around so I was straddling her. She wrapped her arms around me and looked deep in my eyes like she was trying to see my soul.
"Baby girl I could care less about the party, if you're home i'm home okay."
"Okay baby, but now what am I wearing tonight?"
"After all I said that's your response?" She asked playfully.
"I mean you want your arm candy to look good, don't you?"
"First off you're not my arm candy, you're my girlfriend who's the mother of my unborn child and my future wife."
"You got a way with your words, you little smooth talker." I laughed.
"I'm just telling the truth and you know you look good in everything with your fine ass."
Now let me tell you her words were getting to me if you know what I'm saying. I held her chin and tilted it up and I leaned down to kiss her. I could feel her smile into the kiss and then she deepened it. She bit my bottom lip pulling it back as she pulled away.
"Fucking beautiful baby girl."
"Thank you daddy." I blushed looking down.
"You ready to go home love?"
"Can we get food before we go?" I asked.
She laughed and I wrapped my arms around her neck and I guess she got the drift that I wasn't getting up because she lightly picked me up. She carried me out of the room and locked it behind of her cause bitches be stealing. My head was resting on her shoulder and my fingers we're playing in her hair.
We got the the bottom floor and began to walk out of the club. I caught the eyes of her assistant and she smiled at me but not the good type she literally was looking at me sinisterly. This is just the fucking conformation I need cause the bitch is literally up to no good.
I didn't notice that we made it to the car until I felt the soft seats. Arlo closed the door after she sat me down and then went over to her side. She started the car and began to drive.
"Your assistant is up to something." I blurted out.
"What do you mean she's up to something?" She asked confused.
"She's on some sneaky shit, when we were leaving today she smiled at me like she was planning some shit. She just gives off a bad vibe." I explained.
"I'll be on the look at, but for now I'll keep her far away from you without it being suspicious."
"When will these bitches leave us alone?" I asked frustrated.
"I don't know baby but it's us against all of them and i'll always be here to protect you."
"I don't want any of them to know i'm pregnant."
"We should go away for a couple of months until you give birth."
"Really?" I asked excitedly.
"Yes we could go any where you want baby."
"Can we talk about it more after tomorrow?"
"Of course mamas."

"Thank you baby, now where we going for food?"
"Depends on what type of food you want?"
"Caribbean food, specifically Jamaican food."
"Alright ma, now have you thought of what you want to wear tomorrow?"
"Well, I been feeling more girly than usual and I don't know whether I want to act on it or not." I fiddled with my fingers.
"By more girly you mean?"
"Like dresses and skirts and that shit."
"Baby wear what ever you want to wear, if you wanna be girly then be girly and if you want to be masculine then do that too. I'm behind you one hundred percent."
"Aww now i'm gonna get all dressed up for you."
"You don't have to, you know I love you in anything you wear or don't wear." She looked at me winking.
"Save that for tonight." I smirked.
"You're naughty baby girl."
"What can I say, you bring it out of me."
I leaned over to kiss her at the corner of her lips. The she gave me that look, you know the one that means you're going to get that soul snatched. At this point I wanna say fuck the food and go straight home cause baby that dick will be my meal so wassup.
But I contained myself and we continued driving to the food, all I know it's about to be one hell of a night.
I was in Levi's room because she woke me up out of my peaceful nap ordering me to go shower and then she literally waited for me to finish and before I could protest she dragged me from my room to hers.
Now here we have it, I'm sitting on the bed miserable as hell because I want more sleep.
"Storm come on mayne, I'm sorry."
Yeah i'm giving her ass the silent treatment.
"You were going to over sleep and then you would get mad at yourself for not waking up on time and you would lash out on me cause I could have woken you up."
'Shi she got a point.' I thought.
"Okay fine you're right i'm sorry, thank you." I said sighing.
"You know how you could thank me?" She asked smiling brightly.
"How?" I asked feeling like I already knew the answer to this.
"By riding my face."
"I knew you was gonna fucking say that." I laughed.
See what I got to deal with everyday. But I can't complain because I love them.
"I'm not kidding but any way I picked out your clothes so get changed, Rowan and Arlo are waiting downstairs." She said turning back to the mirror.
Levi right now is my own little personal stylist. She always has me looking right and when I get too lazy to pick something she's always there with a back up plan.
"Okay how do I look?" I asked doing a little spin.
"The fact that you haven't began to show yet is crazy but you look like beautiful." She smiled.
"Well thank you for picking it out for me, now let's go have some fun. You more than me though." I said linking my arms in hers.
We didn't even stop to take pictures cause we have the rest of the night to do so, we walked downstairs in to the living room where Arlo and Rowan were waiting for us.
"Finally y'all took long as fuck." Rowan said staring down at her phone.
"Well if you look up, you'll see that it's all worth it." I said rolling my eyes.
She looked up and and her mouth fell open.
"Now ma'am you see why it's all worth it." I winked.
I walked up to Arlo who was still sitting.
"What do you think?" I asked doing a little twirl.
"I think i'm lucky to have the best looking girl at that party."
"You smooth talker." I rolled my eyes playfully.
"Only for you mama, but now let's go." She got up taking my hand.
"Well hello to you to sister." Levi said irritated.
"Shit my bad, hey baby sis." She said kissing Levi's cheek.
"Can I talk to you later?" Lev asked Arlo.
"Yea of course, is everything okay?" She asked.
"Yeah, I just want to talk."
"Alright I got you." Arlo said before leading all of us to the garage.
"I wanna sit in the back." I said.
"That's surprising." Levi said.
"How?"
"Cause you always fight us for the passengers seat."
"Ahh, you're right."
"Well I'll sit in the passengers seat." Levi said.
Rowan got in the back with me and I tried to make myself comfortable in the back while Arlo started driving.
"Would you mind if I laid my upper body on you?" I asked Rowan.
"Come on."
She pulled me down so my head and my chest were resting on her lap while my lower body was on the seat. She wrapped one of her arms around my waist holding me securely so I wouldn't fall if the car came stop abruptly.
"Can we play some music or something cause this car ride is a little too quiet for me."
Levi laughed and hooked phone up to the aux cord. She started playing Sober Thoughts by Young M.A and I started bopping my along with the rhythm.
"That's better, But I guess tonight I'm the designated driver."
"You act like we're going to get fucked up." Arlo said and I just knew she was rolling her eyes.
"Yes you are unless something sobers you up."
"I'm not that bad."
"All of you are and so am I, but this time I'm on my best behavior."
"We're not getting super wasted." Rowan argued.
"Speak for yourself." Levi piped in.
"At least Levi is honest about it, even though Rowan can control herself more than all of us."
"Well someone has to."
"Now that's me for the next couple months, so enjoy the goodies for me and you."
"But-" Rowan started.
"End of discussion." I said sternly.
"This bitch." I heard her mumble but I chose not to respond.
The rest of the ride was filled with music and little to chatter. I dozed off maybe less than half way through the ride cause a bitch is tired but I woke up to gentle shaking .
"Mhm ." I said stretching.
"Time to wake up baby momma."
I opened my eyes to see Rowan looking down at me.
"Okay i'm up and what do I tell you about calling me baby momma."
"Do I look like I listen?"
"Shut up." I said getting up and getting out of the car.
Arlo came over to me and held my hand.
"How do I look?"
"Like a goddess." She replied kissing the back of my hand.
We walked up to the entrance and to say it was packed is an understatement. There was flashing lights from paparazzi and other neon lights. We walked to the front and somebody asked Arlo and I to take some pictures.
We stood in front of them and they took the pictures of us posing together. Arlo stood behind of me with her arms around me and one of my hands rested on her arm and the other was kind of bent around her neck. It was weird but it still looked cute.
When they were taking pictures they were blurting shit out like
"Arlo is she the one?"
"I haven't seen you with one woman for a while is this one special to you?"
And other things of that nature. We just ignored them because we know what we got going on so we ain't need to publicize it, if they see us they see us and that's that.
I got tired of taking pictures so I dragged Arlo inside and Levi and Rowan followed. Inside looked really nice, it had those big blow up pictures of the couple hanging on the ceiling and the place was packed.
Arlo walked up to our usual section and as per usual it was fully stocked. I went over to the sofa and sat down. Levi, Rowan and Arlo went straight to the drink table. They poured a couple shots for themself and Arlo walked over to me with a tall champagne type glass and she handed it to me.
"What's this?" I asked loudly since the music was loud.
"I didn't want you to feel left out so I made sure we had non-acholic drinks for you. It's sparkling apple cider and I used the fancy glass so it feels like you a part of the drinking."
"That's sweet thank you baby." I pecked her lips.
For most of the night we stayed to ourselves vibing. I for one was enjoying my apple cider and watching them enjoy their Hennessey. I got tired of sitting around though so I took Levi and dragged her down to the dance floor.
"Dance with me?" I asked.
She nodded her head yes and we started dancing to Woosah by Jeremiah. Her hands were on my waist moving them how she wanted it to move and my eyes were closed with my head tilted back. The music was hitting just right to be honest, since I can't partake in any drug substances i'm getting my euphoric feeling from the music.
Levi spun me around so we were pressed chest to chest. Her hands returned to my waist again and mine wrapped around her neck. I could feel eyes on me and I knew it was Arlo and Rowan.
I opened my eyes and I was met with Arlo and Rowan's eyes on us. I winked at them and continued to dance. Shortly after they came up to us and Rowan pulled Levi away for like a quick minute and during that time Arlo came up to me and started kissing me.
"I'm gonna have you worn tf out tonight mamas." She whispered in my ear.
I shivered at the thought of what she was going to do tonight and I bit my lip.
"I'm going to talk to Levi in my office, Rowan is going to stay with you. Be a good girl for me yeah?"
"Yes daddy."
She gave me another kiss and then walked over to Levi before going upstairs.
"Well it's just you and me." Rowan laughed.
"Girl you sound cringy, but let's dance." I said grabbing her hands making her move with me.
We danced for a while before I got thirsty and went to the bar for a bottle of water. I signaled to the bartender and asked for the water. I got it and then started to drink it down. I felt like somebody was watching me but I had a feeling it wasn't Rowan.
I tried to look around discreetly but I didn't notice anybody so I continued with what I was doing. I finished the rest of my water and I was walking over to the trash can when I bumped in to the assistant girl.
"Sorry." I mumbled before continuing to walk.
I threw away the bottle and went back to find Rowan. As I was walking I started to feel light on my feet, it felt like the world was spinning and my vision was doubled. I could see Rowan a bit further in distance from me and I knew I had to get to her quick.
Before I could continue I felt somebody holding my upper arm, I looked up and since my vison was doubled I couldn't fully see who it was.
"Let me go." I tried to say but my words came out slurred.
That's when I started to panic and my anxiety started to rise. I could hear my heart pumping in my ears, my body was shaking and my breath leaving my body quick and hard. I tried to muster all my energy and I hit whosoever it was and the last bit of energy I had I went where I thought Rowan was.
When I got to her I felt myself going down but my vision got a bit clearer and I was thankful that I I was in Rowans arms as my eyes closed and I welcomed the darkness.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.
