Rodney had been once again standing on looking at the sky 'I wonder if other people like me are staring at the moon, kinda weird right' he chuckled to himself, the lovesick boy gazed stupidly at the stars but also doubt, they were two different people with different lives and different signs, Taurus, a loyal friend to always have in a life, they love food and are stubborn to the core but Roxanne was heartless, she was like the el Capone of the school, she swindled money from the elderly, she was cruel to those who tried to stop her. she was a total badass and he loved it "you daydreaming again" said his friend in utter dismay "yeah, so what?" "well, I really want to play video games with you, it been a while since I kicked your ass, and plus, IM BORED!!!" Rodney chuckled "well I recall that last time I was the one who kicked your ass" "you cheated " the demon scuffed "ah but I only used a higher advance to win victory" "don't try and make it sound like you didn't cheat, I know you did!!!" Rodney laughed at him, he was acting like a child, so prideful in his own mind "I'll come inside in a moment, just a little longer" "fine, stargazer" he groaned before closing the glass doors that led to the boy's room 'stargazer, I like that...a lot' said the voice in Rodney's head.
8:00 AM
13 days till 'the special gift's' arrival
Roxanne was walking through the long winding hallways of the school as the usual gossip stirred the girls into a wild frenzy, the boys talked about how they were laid and the excitement of the next game, and yet there was no mason to talk about how dumb they looked, no mason to make fun of teachers clothing and no mason to help her with money-making, Roxanne was getting worried about her friend that she had decided to call him from the office phone but they were reluctant and refused, not only did she have no communication with her friend but she was also stuck at school by herself if only some miracle would save her from a long boring day.
she did the usual things such as complete her math assighment first, destroy a girls face at dodgeball and her favorite, bake brownies in the school kitchen, even as a heartless person she still found joy in even some of the simpliest things, it was embarrasing to her so she does her best to keep it secret but not from Mason, he was her right hand man, her brother from another mother, she was lonely most of the time which is why she loved to make people feel useless, her parents suck and treat her like shit, the only fond memory of her childhood would be thomas and his dead wife, they were like her parents but they probably forgot about her, she was tired of pretending to be a good and bad person but if you really think about it, thats the only way we can survive in this world, by pretenting to be people were not, we grow up and focus on money, love and power, her anger and sadness are shwoed every day in only the most destenct and small puzzle pieces that try to solve the puzzle of the missing Roxanne, who is trapped and alone inside her heart and mind...
the school day ended and she began her journey to the local store where she would get a container of popcorn chicken and a large bottle of soda, the flavor of the chicken was her way of coping with her sadness and confusion. As she took another chicken out of the cup, she thought to herself 'I think I will go visit Mason, see how he's been' she smiled at the thought of her friend, how excited he would be to see her, so she bought a container of his favorite brownie cupcakes and threw her empty container of chicken away and began her trip to Mason's house, she help the pasteries to her chest as she rang the door bell of the house to have his mother open it "why hello Roxanne, what brings you here" she said with a sweet smile "well ma'am I came here to see Mason, I even brought his favorite brownies " Roxanne said with innocents "come on in, he hasn't come out of his room ever since the Braxton boys got to him, they jumped out of the bushes and hurt my poor baby, took his cloths, backpack and threw them in the creek" "thats awful, I didn't know that happened" She said, she was indeed truly surprised, she hadn't seen the boys in a long time so it was just something that popped out of no where "he's upstairs in his room, knock on the door first" "thanks you" Roxanne walked up the old stairs with the brownies, she knocked on her friends door "come in" he said, Roxanne opened the door to see mason on his bed playing on his phone "hey bud, I came to visit you since you havent been at school for awhile, I even brought you your favorite brownies from walmart" "do they have more red sprinkles then yellow" "yes, I made sure" Mason sat up on his bed so that Roxanne could sit down, she sat down next to him and gave him the Brownies "your mom told me what happened" "she did?" "yeah she did, you okay?" Roxanne asked him "yeah I'm fine, we used to get into fights with the Braxton boys all the time remember" "yeah, those were good times weren't they" Roxanne chuckled, mason had already started eating the brownies. The two played video games and ate brownies for two hours before Roxanne had to leave, she wished her friend well and told Mason's mom to have a good night before walking back home...
Alex stayed in Roxanne's room until she would return 'come on kid, where are ya' he paced in her room back and forth, he played with his hand before a knock at his window startled him, Crocell stood on the other side "CROCELL WHAT THE HELL!!?" Alex shouted before letting him in "sorry I came here without an invite but I had to come here" "for what" Alex barked "I was worried about you big guy, the other day when you ran out of hell like that got me worried" "Crocell, leave please, go back to your precious Angel and I will stay with my human" "that's the thing, rumor has it that you and this human are closer than friends" Alex glared at him "how can I, a demon from hell, a servant of the devil, a God of wrongdoing be intimate with a human child, she is my friend and a job, nothing more..." "but then why, why do you worry about her so much, why do you care for a damned soul, why Alex, WHY!!" "BECAUSE THATS WHAT FRIENDS DO RIGHT!!" "BUT THIS IS WEIRD ALEX, VERY WEIRD, THE WAY YOU TALK TO HER, THE WAY YOU LOOK AT HER, ITS LIKE YOUR PROTECTING HER BUT FROM WHAT, DAMMIT ALEX WHAT ARE YOU HIDING" "what happens o her is between me and her, no one else" "ALEX DONT GET ME WRONG BUT YOUR HIDING SOMETHING" "LIKE WHAT CROCELL!!" "I DONT KNOW, WHY DONT YOU GET SOME BALLS ON AN FUCKIN TELL ME!!" "FINE YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW, SHE IS THE ANTICHRIST DAMMIT!!" Alex slapped his mouth shut with his eyes wide, the room fell silent as Crocell looked at him, it was at this very moment where Alex truly knew he was in for a long haul "what...." Crocell stared at him, Alex looked at him with worried eyes, he felt fear cover his body and mind as he slowly began to speak "yeah...she's the Antichrist..." "so she's-" "the daughter of satan...yeah" the two exchanged looks, the room was as hot as hell while the silence continued "so...this world will end soon" "in 2 weeks on her birthday, Lucifer is going to send a birthday present to Roxy and she will be met with the four horsemen of chaos, that's all I was told and that's why I need you and Raguel to turn her good, she is evil right now but I know you and your angel can fix her" "but we will only have 2 weeks, plus how would we even be able to talk to her without having her freak the fuck out" "I don't know, miracle something, anything!" Alex was in a desperate nature that almost looked as if he would cry at any given moment "Fine, I will see what we can do" and just like that, Crocell vanished
At that moment, Roxanne walked in "hey Alex, how's it been pal" she said as she threw herself into her swivel chair "what took you so long to get back, I was really worried" "relax Alex, I just went to masons house to see if he was okay, I heard he got into a fight with the Braxton boys" "really, the Braxton boys, arent they like the dumbest kids at your school" "yeah but their also the toughest so it wouldn't surprise me if they beat the living shit out of him, poor guy, he didn't deserve it" Roxanne said as she laid her head on his shoulder, the demon blushed at this action as he slowly snaked his arm on her shoulders "you okay?" he asked "I should have been there, I could of saved him and taught those jerkwads a lesson" she said meekly, Alex wanted nothing more than to tell her everything but he knew that it would be a danger to hers and his safety for the devil may want to kill them both "I know how you feel Roxanne but the thing is...is that you have to get over it, what was done is done and there's nothing you could have done, you were at school and he was somewhere else, he should have known better than to be in the woods espically during school hours, I understand that you and him are friends but there are times when you have to leave someone behind for the great or good, there will come a time in your life when you will have to leave me behind so you can become who ever the hell you want to be, fame and fortune are in your hands and sometimes its best to be alone..." without even realizing it, Roxanne had fallen asleep on his shoulder 'wait, has she been sleeping this whole time!?right after i just gave that reall important speech!!!?' Alex's frown cretped into a smile before picking her up and placing her on her bed, he looked at her for a moment, the way she slept, the way she looked, she was an angel who was born into something no one would dare care for, he leaned in close to her face, it was soft and all sadness was gone, only the sleeping thoughts of a girl who is the daughter of the devil, he placed his claw on her cheek "good night Roxy" he said before stepping back and leaving out through the window...
