"Hello." 

That was his first word, the one word that took her away from me. I couldn't bear to see the piercing eyes, lit up like embers, underneath the stainless, pristine white mask that hid his face. As quickly as he appeared, she left me for him. I thought she loved me. Of course, lies always came from her...

She has a twin. And that twin loves to hang around me and my step-brother. It sickens me to see her...the twin reminds me so much of my lover. 

But my lover prefers men with both eyes, I suppose. 

Just recently, I saw them hugging, near kissing. I couldn't bear seeing it. So I left the room. My mind constantly reverts to that scene. Whenever my eye closes, it is like someone stamped the image on the inside of my eyelid. It wasn't me. Unless she really doesn't like my eyepatch, or my jet, or me in general. We were so close. It took nearly forever to gain that..."close-ness". Then, in one swift move, it was all stolen from me. 

I never see her smile the same way. She never looks at me the same way. Each time I'm around her, my gut wrenches into several, tightly tied knots. 

I never thought that the blissful moments we shared would end so quickly.

The night was more fun. More fun against day, as Raven would think. A quite girl, but quite more than meets the eye. Lying was fun. Trickery was a strategy. However, deception, was the prime option. Why be good, when the road to bad was so much more amusing? It was amusing to hurt...amusing to cause pain in the minds of those who trusted you. 

So it began. 

Raven would make..."Friends". 

The one she had the most fun with, was a friend of two years. 

It was fun to watch her friend's face as Raven started the mind games...cruel, vicious, merciless...

Abandon. That was one thing that no one wants. But Raven wasn't being abandoned, now, was she? No. She was the one leaving them in the dust. :)
