《Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel》- 14 - Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Advertisement
Hungover sucks.
Especially when you wake up in the back of your car and forget to on the heater. My head was throbbing like a bitch and driving while feeling nauseous is no easy task.
I can not believe what I did last night. I can not believe I'm falling into my old ways again. The last time I was behaving like this it ended in the worst possible way but now I got nothing to lose so who would care?
I came home and walked up to my room. Mother wasn't home as always, even if she did she wouldn't care as to when and where I was. I took a bath and got into some comfy clothes. For some reason, I decided to re-activate my socials. After, scrolling through the phone for some time I fell asleep.
***
"Come on Rhea one drink, just one. I'm pretty sure your brother wouldn't mind"
"I'm fourteen assholes". It's not that anyone would tell the police or something because all of them here are basically underage but I'd rather get home sober than drunk and experience my father beat the shit out of me.
For a moment I question why I am even here. Oh yes, to make friends. I wouldn't be able to last another school year with no friends. I haven't had any friends after Jason started hanging out with the stoner dudes and Damien left to live with his father. I miss him so much even though he didn't come to school with me, but every day after school, I would see him and hang out. I never told him that I have a massive crush on him even after he left because I know friendships can be destroyed when feelings get involved. So, I'd rather be friends with him than taking the risk of being nothing. When he told me he's leaving the country to live with his father, made me happy but as much as that it made me sad. I was happy for him because he wanted to meet his father, just once and now he gets to live with him. But the thought that he would leave and most probably won't come back to this shitty town makes me really sad. So here I am at a party I know no one but some of my Noah's friends and Nathan. Speaking of the devil.
"Heeelloooo little sister," he said.
"Hello Nathan, you are so very drunk and Noah told you to give him a call," I said sitting on top of the counter.
"ugh. Fuck him" oohh trouble in paradise I see. Well, it's nothing new, to be honest. I know my brother loves him so much but they could be really toxic sometimes.
"Didn't you already?" I ask to lighten up the mood.
"Haha very funny. No, actually that was a good one" he says handing me a drink.
"Uh... I don't drink, remember?" I told him refusing to take the cup.
"Just chill, It's not alcohol. This is my special drink for a special person". And this is why I love him so much; he makes me feel special and makes me love myself. I could say Nathan is the only person that helped me last this long in life.
I take the drink and gulp it down and looked around to see where he has disappeared to. I'm alone again, aren't I? I remove myself from the counter walked my way through the drunk people. Walking around to find any familiar face the living room started blurring out and my head started spinning. Oh, God what's happening? Why am I feeling like this?

I walk up the stairs trying to find a bathroom but before I could someone grabbed me from my arm pulled me into a room or that's what I think it is. I tried to get away from his hold but his grip around my arm is too tight.
"Let me go" I pleaded. He pushed me onto a bed and as soon as my head hit the pillow I couldn't lift myself. I felt like I couldn't move my body at all. I felt like I lost control of myself. He pushed himself on top of me and I looked up to recognize his face but it was too blurry and I hardly was able to keep my eyes open.
"Get away from me. please" I cried but he didn't stop. A sudden pain rushed into my body. He pushed and pushed and I cried until a scream erupted from my mouth. I cried for my mother. I cried for her to come save me.
"Shut up little Rhea," he told never stopping causing me so much pain. I couldn't recognize his face or voice; all I could feel was pain and hear my own screams.
"M-mom come save me please come and help me" I kept on saying the same thing over and over again.
Mom
Mom
Mom
"Mom, come save me please help me!"
"Rhea, wake up. It's just a nightmare" I woke up to see Emma's face and not the person who completely ruined me. I was still panting and sweating like a pig. I took the water from Emma's hand and drank the whole glass.
"was I speaking in my sleep?" I ask because I really don't want her to know what I saw.
"Nothing, just the Mom come save me part. but are you okay though" oh phew.
"Yeah, I'm fine. What are you doing here?". Don't tell me she saw the shit ton of alcohol bottles downstairs or if I'm been really unlucky, my mother drunk.
"I called you yesterday and you never answered your phone so I came here because boredom has taken over my life," she says dramatically. It was already five in the afternoon and I have slept half of the day. I literally had nothing to do either so I could say Emma's company wont be that bad.
"Wanna do something fun?" I ask her.
"Depends on what kind of fun," she says falling onto my bed.
"Doing drugs and getting high type of fun". She lifts her head and looked at me with a 'are you joking?' type of look.
"Come on Em don't pretend like you haven't snorted a line in your life before," I tell and got up from my bed to get some clothes.
"It was a long time ago and I promised myself I would never do it again," she says walking up to me and taking a look at my closet.
"Fine, you don't have to. Just accompany me and you can get drunk if you want. you like that don't you". I took some black denim shorts with a tube top and a flannel.
"This is the most un colourful closet I have seeing in my entire life!" she says and the look on her face made me laugh.
"You are in a good mood aren't you," she asks.
"Yup and you can expect more good mood Rhea's now," I say and moved to the bathroom to get changed.
"Let's get this party started!" she screamed from the room.

When you say drugs and getting high the first person that comes to my mind is the one and only Jason Kai. I know I lashed out at him and told him not to talk to me but instead, I always end up going after him and blah blah. Well, the good thing is I don't care and by now Jason already knows my ways so he'd be the last person to judge. I got dressed, grabbed my keys and went to my car with Emma.
"So are we getting drugs from?" she asks as we get into the car.
"Jason. The biggest druggie I've known in my entire life" I tell and increased the volume and Royals by Lorde blasting through the speakers. I speed the car, lowering the side windows as the wind hits.
I'm not happy but I'm not sad either.
"Gurl, you driving like we got seven lives to live," she says and tightened her grip on the sit.
"Aww Em, want me to slow down" I looked at her pouting and I pushed the gas pedal increasing the speed. I just hope we don't crash... or the cops.
Dammit, the cops.
I slowed down and parked the car as a cop headed towards us.
"You got to be kidding me" I muttered to myself.
"This ain't a race track young lady. Get out of the car" he says and walked away.
"Hey, I got this" Emma says and removed her cardigan then pushed up her tits to show more cleavage. She got out of the car walked towards the cop car. This is not gonna end well.
She leaned to the car facing the cop, she started twirling her with her other hand. After a few minutes, she walked back to my car with a piece of paper in her hand.
"How on earth did you do that?" I ask as she got in.
"Most cops in this town are fucking pedos," she says and threw the piece of paper out the window as I drive away.
"Here take my phone and call Jason. Ask him where he is?" I tell Emma and hand my phone.
"Alright"
"Hey, Rhea. I'm so sorry. can you please forgive me" Jason says as soon as he answered the phone.
"It's Emma, Can you tell us where you are?"
"Why?"
"You want forgiveness, don't you? so, tell me where you are" I tell him through the speaker.
"Uhh at shawn's basement and Rhea it's not a good time for you to come here" Ha knew it.
"It's perfect timing. send me the location" I tell and declined the call.
"I can not go to Shawn's place or anywhere near him," Emma says.
"Why not?"
"He's my ex and it wasn't a healthy breakup," she says sinking into the seat.
"I don't see any problem. For a fact it's high time to show him what he lost" I smile at her and looked up the location.
We arrived at the location and was met with a pretty big house. How on earth are these people so rich?
We got out and went around the house instead of using the front door to head to the basement. There was a big roller gate, I knocked and was met with very shirtless Jason.
"You want to talk outside," he says and wore his shirt.
"No, I want to go inside" I took Emma's hand and walked in. This basement was pretty spacious with a huge couch and a pool table which I was hardly able to see through the smoke. This place is a literal definition of a hotbox.
"Rhea, what are you doing here?" Jason asks.
"I'm gonna get high and have some fun what else," I tell him and walked to the couch.
"Are you crazy?! I'm not gonna give you drugs or anything of that matter" He says walking towards me.
"Why not? it won't be the first time" I say innocently.
"Damien is gonna kill me"
"Damien can suck a dick," I say and I lie down on the couch planting my legs on some dudes lap.
"Hi, I'm Rhea," I tell taking the joint from his hand.
"Luke," he says smirking.
"So, we are friends again," Jason asks.
"If you are gonna get me high then yes," I tell him smoking a drag from the joint.
"Fine. I see the old Rhea's back" he says grinding some pills on the coffee table.
"For good," I tell.
"Let's start with Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," another boy says lifting my head and keeping it on his lap. There was six boys now sitting around. And I bet all of them are basketballers.
"What on earth is Lucy?" Emma asks and I see she finds it uncomfortable to sit around with any of the boys.
"Its LSD" i tell and and sat up making room for her.
"Sunflower, you are up first"
"Stop telling me that Shawn" Emma speaks back at him and bent to snort the line.
"That's Shawn," I ask her.
"Yes"
"Hey, Shawn thanks for letting us in but boy, you took a big ass L breaking up with this queen," I tell him and bent to snort my line.
I took out my phone and texted Jason.
(Ignore the time stamps)
"Em go sit next to Jason" I whispered.
"Why?" she asks taking the joint from my hand. So much for 'I'm never doing drugs again.'
"Wanna show him how much of a loser he is?" I ask and she walks towards Jason sitting on his lap. Damn Em!
"Yall are a bunch of pussies if you don't have molly in here" I called out moving back to my previous position.
"Damn Jason. where did you collect this one" Luke said.
"stop objectifying me," I say and hit his chest with my shoe.
"My dealer didn't have meth so call us a bunch of pussies." The dude I was laying my head on said. I looked up at him and I see him already smirking at me.
"Devon," he says.
"Rhea"
"I know". we just kept on staring at each other. And I got to say he is fine. He has blond hair but I suppose he coloured it since his original brunette colour seems to appear from the roots. His blue eyes were staring into mine.
"Rhea! your turn" I look away from him and sat up to snort my line, as I was bending down I saw the door open and everything was blurring out. I guess my high has already settled in. I shoot my head up when I saw Damien walking in along with Jennifer.
Our eyes locked for a moment.
A/N - THIS NEW RHEA IS NOT VERY NEW. SHE HAS BEEN THIS PERSON ONCE AND SHE'S BACK AT IT AGAIN. TO TELL THE TRUTH, IT'S MORE FUN TO WRITE ABOUT THIS RHEA AND I SUPPOSE IT'S FUN TO READ TOO...

Ever since Aster’s mother died, home no longer feels like home.

She’s only been to the palace once, a memory she’s replayed countless times in her head, during her first fateful encounter with her fiancé. But when she comes face to face with Florian once more, he’s cold and apathetic; a far cry from the boy she used to dream of. As Aster struggles to come to terms with Florian’s new demeanour, life in the palace reveals more than it’s rose covered façade. The maze within its gardens hides thorns that cut deep, and the spirits who call it home want nothing more than to see her go.
