You Kissed My Soul

Aderyn Pov

As I began to regain consciousness, I began to sense everything beside me. I was slowly waking up and finally my eyes fluttered open and I looked towards my surrounding. It was my room. I stared blankly at the ceiling for some minutes, then I tried to get up from the bed.

As soon as I did that I felt uneasiness and my heart beat began to rise. I groaned as I held my throbbing head and managed to lean against the headboard. As I sat there for minutes, I began to steady myself down a bit.

I heaved a sigh and looked at my clothes. It wasn't the same that I was wearing the last time. I wonder who got me here and changed my clothes.

I remember last time I was in the woods, drenching under the rain.

Suddenly, the door of my room opened and Bell walked in with a smiling face holding a tray. "Hey!" She said softly as she stopped before me and sat beside me on the bed.

"Hi!" I manage to reply with my hoarse voice.

"How are you feeling now?”

“Fine 1 guess” I told her with a smile of my own.

“Here, have some coffee you feel more better” she gave me the cup of coffee from the tray and I took it feeling grateful. I really needed it.

“Thanks!”

"Your welcome” she smiled as she got up from the bed and made her way towards the door.

“You can come down for breakfast right?” She asked from the entrance.

"Hmm? Oh yeah I will" I replied to which she nodded and left.

After I completed my coffee, I got up from the bed and went inside the bathroom.

"What the-" I screamed shocked looking at myself in the mirror.

My hair was a mess. I saw a twig stuck inside my hair and I took out with difficulty and eyed it in my hand.

“Thank God no bird saw me or it might have mistaken my hair as it's nest” I laughed softly and threw the twig into the dustbin.

I took a shower and I had to shampoo my hair again. After I was done I walked out wearing my bathrobe and wrapped my hair up into a towel. When my hair was dry, I combed it into a ponytail and wore my white button up shirt and black fit jeans. I wore my sneakers and took that coffee cup which I left on the table in the morning and went downstairs.

I was somehow in a good mood today.

"Hey Jenny” I chirped seeing Jenny in the Kitchen preparing food.

“Adie! How are you feeling?” She asked leaving her work and walking towards me with a worried expression.

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion seeing her expression

“I am feeling Fresh” I said as I kept the cup on the table.

"Oh Thank God Adie!” She whispered heaving a sigh as she held me by my arms.

“I was really worried for you" she said as she smiled softly at me.

"Okay? Uh I am hungry” I told her and she nodded serving me my plate of pancakes.

"Smells so good” I moaned smelling its aroma as I sat on the chair feeling my stomach growl.

“I hope you like it” she said as she began to do her other work.

I took a fork and a knife and began to eat my pancakes. It was delicious.

“Hey! Adie” I looked up to see Cole entering the room with Lily following him.

For the first time, I saw Lily wearing decent clothes. She was wearing a black with lace sleeves top and blue jeans with black boots. Her hair was down and she used minimum make up.

"What is wrong with her?” I wondered.

"Hi Cole” I replied as he took a seat next to me. Lily sat on the chair before me and gave me a small smile to which I gave her a confused expression. She rolled her eyes and asked Jenny to serve her breakfast.

Jenny took a plate and served Lily's breakfast in it and kept it before her. Lily took her fork and knife and began to eat her breakfast.

"So how are you feeling now?” Cole asked as he turned towards me on his chair facing me.

I ate my pancake and shrugged my shoulder. “Good!” I said with my mouth full of pancake.

He smiled at my action and nodded whispering “That's good".

I furrowed my eyebrows thinking what's wrong with all of them. Why are they behaving like this? "Why are all behaving like this?" I asked as I stuffed a piece of pancake into my mouth.

“Huh?” Cole asked “like what?"

“Uh like this I mean why are you off asking about how I am feeling all of a sudden? Why so much worriedness?” I questioned.

“Nothing we are ju-" Cole was cut off by Lily who answered “Simple! They all are feeling pity for you because of your terrible past” she finished as I stopped eating, my spoon in mid air.

"What?" I questioned raising my eyebrow.

“Lily!” Cole hissed to which Jenny tried to interfere “N-Nothing Adie we we-" Jenny was again cut off by Lily “Oh c'mon guys you can't hide it from her any longer. We all know about her past and we even know what happened with her family, her parents, her brother and even her sister” she finished as she looked at me with a neutral expression.

“We even know what you are and how you became that” she finished.

“Enough Lily!” Cole banged his fists on the table.

“Can't you keep your mouth quiet you fool” Jenny hissed at her.

"How?" I asked as confusion and anxiety began to fill within me.

"King! He d-" before she can complete her sentence I was already up on my feet walking away like a maniac.

Rate was filled inside me and the only thing I felt right now was hatred. Hatred for Dylan. How dare he? I couldn't believe this.

I could hear Cole and Jenny calling for me and Cole shouting at Lily “Are you happy now?"

I was angry as well as hurt. How could he? I hated those who has pity upon me.

My rage was making me blind as it began to roll down my cheeks in form of tears. I felt as if I am betrayed.

I walked directly towards his room. Without knocking I barged into his room only to find it empty. “Office” I thought as I exited his room and made my way towards his office. He has to give me answers today.

As I reached near his office I saw people whoever passed me, gave me a sympathetic look. This enraged me even more. This was the thing I loathed the most in this world.

I barged into his Office room without knocking. He was not alone. He was sitting on his chair and before him Blake was sitting on the chair while a bald guy was sitting next to him.

“Out” I said to both of the men. They looked shocked but looked back at Dylan to which he nodded and they both got up from their seat and left the room without uttering any word.

"Why?" I asked as I walked towards his desk slowly.

He got up from his chair and walked towards me.

"Why?" I asked more loudly and clearly, anger evident in my voice.

"You are awake” he said ignoring my question as he reached his hand to touch my face.

I moved back from his touch and immediately his face was masked with hurt. I somehow felt guilty for it but soon shrugged it off and concentrated on the topic.

"Answer me just why?"

"What are you talking about Aderyn?” He asked softly and I was shocked hearing him talk to me softly.

“What I am talking about? Oh so you don't know?” I asked as I crossed my arms across my chest. “How dare you let people know about my past” his eyes widened and he opened his mouth to speak but I cut him off “Do you think this is an interesting story or Cinema that you can tell people? Huh? So why did you do that?" I asked as I shoved his chest once.

"Aderyn list-" he began but was cut off by me “No you listen to me. How dare you talking about my past publicly? What did you get doing that?”

Then realization hit me “Oh now I get it” I said as I laughed sarcastically at him. “This is your way of revenge right?” I finished

"Aderyn what are you talking about?” He tried to touch me but I slapped his hand angrily.

“Don't ever touch me” I snarled angrily enunciating each words.

“Let me explain” he pleaded

“Explain? You will explain? You got so angry upon me when you knew that I found out about your past right? And why did you did you get angry?” I questioned mocking him.

I answered my own question “Because you hate it when people pity you, have sympathy upon you. You hate your past and do not want people to know about and that goes same for me. I hate I too so how dare you?”

“This is your way how you took your revenge right?” I asked as my voice lowered down and years began to roll down my cheeks and I turned around.

"Aderyn please” Dylan said softly as he touched my shoulder trying to turn me but it was his bad move because as he did that he fueled my anger even more which caused me to slap him on his face hard.

“I said Do Not Touch Me" I hissed.

"You know what? You were right. You were so right when you said that I was weak. Because you are right I am weak and I do not regret showing it to others and at least I am not like you all fake. I do not keep my emotions inside me. You are a very selfish man Mr Dylan Black Bishop. Very selfish!” “And you know what? I just hate you" as I said that his eyes grew wider and he stared at me in shock.

“That's right I just hate you" I said in a low voice.

“You know what I just hate you. Every single thing of yours. Your face. Your eyes. Everything” I screamed at him showing him a accusing finger.

"I feel pity for you actually. It is very sad to know that you do not respect anyone. For you everything is I, me and myself. So selfish. You can only thing about yourself but what about others you fool?” I questioned.

As he kept on staring me I kept quiet for a few second waiting for him to say something but when he didn't I wiped away my tears and composed myself and in a normal tone I continued “I have had enough. This is just too much” I inhaled deeply and closed my eyes.

Opening them, I spoke “I am going to do what you asked me to last night and I think that will be better for both of us. For you” I said pointing a finger towards him “and as well as me” I completed pointing a finger towards myself.

With that I gave him a last glance before turning around and walking out of his room. I knew whatever I planned to do right now was good for both us.

And nobody can stop me from doing that.

Not even Dylan himself.
