Writing Prompt #794
Something about the new guy in school intrigues you. A loner yourself, you can't fight the magnetic draw you feel to him whenever you lock eyes. One rainy night, while driving home, lightning pierces the sky, enveloping the new guy as he stands on a hill. Worried that he may be hurt, you race up the hill to find his body crackling with electricity. He is overcome with emotion and reveals that he is a Nephilim. The reason you feel connected to him is because you have loved each other for years. His father, the God of all Gods, wiped your memory to keep you apart because it is prophesied that together you will have a powerful child who will rule the Heavens.
I groan inwards as I realize that I’ve been staring at Xavier again. I can’t even believe that this new guy has captured my attention so thoroughly that everything just fades away into the background. I throw my head backwards in frustration as the bell rings signaling the end of Math class. I slowly pack up all my stuff. “Miss. Moore, can you please come to my desk?” Mrs. Fan asks looking over at me. I groan again. I stand up leaving my stuff at my desk.
“How can I help you?” I ask as I get to her desk.
“What’s been going on? You’ve never been this distracted, before.” She say showing me the test from yesterday. She raises her hand to stop me as I open my mouth to talk. “Yes, you normally don’t talk in class, you also don’t do well in groups but you’ve never gotten anything less than a B on any test.” She shows me the test again. A big red F was at the top of the paper. “You failed this last test. What’s going on?” She asks again.
“I don’t know.” I told her honestly. “I will do better.”
“You know you can talk to me about anything that’s going on. You know that right?” She says. She wouldn’t understand what I am going through. I was abounded at the age of 5. I don’t remember anything before the age of 5. I didn’t even have anything to take to the first foster home. I was found just outside the forest with nothing. I didn’t even have clothes on. She wouldn’t understand what I go through on any given day. But none the less, I nod at her.
“Am I free to go?” I ask trying to hide the anger that was slowly taking over me. She sighs but nods. I turn back towards my desk.
“I’m going to let you make up the test tomorrow during lunch.” She says I hear her push her chair back and the creak of her chair. I grab my things and rush out the door before she can say anything. I make it to the front doors. Fucking hell, I want to scream. It’s pouring down rain. I look around and see no one. Fucking hell. I need to get the house. I have to cook dinner. I rush out into the storm and it takes me less than two minutes to get to Sophia’s, My foster sister, old car. Once I get into the car, it dawns on me that I have to stop by the store. We don’t have anything for me to cook.
“Fucking hell!” I say smacking the steering wheel. “I just want to be good enough.” I turn on the car and head towards the store. Once at the store I rush inside.
“Hello, Ma’am” a young lady says to me as I rush by her. I spend three hours shopping. By time I was done shopping the storm has calmed just a little bit. Enough for me to get the groceries out to the car barely getting wet. As I drive home passing the forest that I was found at. I notice Xavier walking towards a hill. The Lighting lighting up the sky and the thunder rolls. The next thing I know lightning pierces the sky, enveloping Xavier. I slam on my breaks the car sliding a little bit before coming to a full stop. I burst out of the car and just make it up the hill as my legs give out. I look up at Xavier. The electricity is crackling around his hold body. “What? What just happened?” I stammer out.
“Mi Amore.” Xavier says leaning down in front of me. “You finally notice me.” He says reaching out. The electricity envelopments me. I feel warm and loved. “Thank the gods. Well, not my padre.” His hand is on my check.
“What are you?” I force out.
“I’m a Nephilim. You, my love, are one as well. Come back to me.” He says kissing my forehead. “Your mine.” He says. “Now remember.” He whispers. As the words leave his lips, memories take over my mind. His father yelling at us because we were prophesied to make a child who will be the one to save the heavens and rule it. Due to both Xavier and I refusing to stop seeing each other, his father said then I have no choice. He reached for me and then everything goes black. Then I woke up at the edge of the forest.
“I’m yours.” I hear before everything goes black.
