My Secret

"Max come on! We're gonna be late!" Ivory called. How can you be late to a bar? I looked in the mirror, turned to see my back, and sighed. Why can't I be normal! For once in my life? I was staring at the two slits in my back, they were at least 3-4 inches long. Ivory walked in on me, looking between me and my back. "Oh, hon! I'm sorry I forgot about them! Here, why don't we change into jeans and a t-shirt?" "I don't wanna sound rude but, you forgot about my wings?" I whispered. "Well, I don't see them often because we both have something called jobs. Also you told me not to talk about them and ignore them." "Oh. Um, er, sorry. I forgot about that. Hehe." I felt so bad, she must be mad at me now. Ugh, why can't I just shut up for once and show some sympathy! "Haha, well looks like we both forgot. Now come on, we can't be late for this!" I walked out of the bathroom and headed for the kitchen.
"Where are you going?" Jade said from behind me. "Did you think you could honestly let me sit here and look for something to eat?" "Well, I expected you to at least come to the room first." Before I could respond she grabbed my wrist and led me to my room. I winced when she grabbed it because my scars were still fresh. "Can you let go please. They still hurt."
She looked down and quickly retreated her hand. "Why are you cutting yourself! I thought we were through with that stage!" Ivory looked at me, her eyes trying to cause me to confess. I looked down at the floor, trying to look interested. "Well, it was an accident. You see, I was shaving and since my hand was soapy the razor slipped and cut me." I lied. "Hmm, so you cut yourself multiple times?" Dang, she was good. "Uh, yeah. I'm clumsy remember?" "I don't believe you. I'll deal with this situation later. Now go change and put some makeup on." Shit! Note to self: Get better at lying.
I went in the bathroom and changed into black skinny jeans with a white punk shirt that was slipping off one shoulder. I put on dark red lipstick, black eyeshadow, and mascara. I might actually look good for once! I checked to see if I made any mistakes. Nope? Good! I headed towards the living room, but then stopped when I saw six shadows on the floor.
