Eryx (Chapter 12.)
654 Words
I drove out towards where my house was, the hardest part about all this sometimes was coming home to a woman I knew I once loved. Getting into the driveway I stared out at the police cruiser that sat in the yard and widened my eyes, the hell? Who was that? Opening the door, I stepped inside of the house and heard a crash followed by yelling from two girls. Listening closely I registered one voice as Aryelle followed by Isabelle.
Isabelle?
“I’ll kill you before you take him you f*****g slut!” Aryelle shrieked.
“Did you call me out here for this?!” Isabelle yelled moving out of the way of a flying pot before running down the stairs towards me. “Eryx!”
“What the f**k is happening?”
“I got a call to come out here for help, and then suddenly this was happening!” She yelled jumping when something else broke. “I don’t f*****g know, but she’s insane, Eryx!”
“I swear b***h, I’ll kill you!”
I put a hand on Isabelle’s shoulder and frowned. “Go get in your cruiser I’ll be out in a moment.”
She nodded her head at me and I walked upstairs towards the room where Aryelle was screaming and breaking things. Turning into the room I caught her arm as she raised it, there was a knife in hand ready to stab Isabelle, I was more than sure.
“Eryx!” She stared wide eyed at me and dropped the knife practically falling into me. “I’m so sorry!”
“Get off me.” I said flatly.
“What?” She asked in a shaky voice.
“Get, off of me.” I said shoving her back and picking up the knife. “You have two options, you can pack up and get the f**k out of my house and pretend this never happened or I can take you in for assault and attempted murder.”
She just stood there for what felt like forever just staring at me as tears started to fill her eyes ands he shook her head, her dark blonde hair flying around her before she choked on her words. “So, it’s really happening then?” She asked
“What?” I asked her
“Us? It’s really over? You really don’t love me anymore?”
“Elle, I haven’t loved you in a long time, you made it hard for me to be able to love you.” I said bluntly. “You’re a b***h, and you’re selfish. Yes, it’s over, it’s been over. What’s your choice?”
“I’ll be out by morning.” She said quietly.
“Good. I’ll leave you to it.” I said and turned away heading down the stairs, a shrill scream came from her as I got to the front door and opened it but I didn’t give a damn, she tried to kill Isabelle… That call I got wasn’t for me it was for her and she was lucky I didn’t take her in for it.
Slipping into the passenger side of Isabelle’s car I gave her a small smile and leaned over to kiss her cheek. “Let’s go somewhere else?”
“I have to work though.” She frowned.
“You can spare a little of your time for me.” I smiled at her. “Promise it’ll be ok.”
She nodded her head and I got out of the car heading towards my own, I’d meet her there and that was going to be that.
