~~Jess~~
~~Day of the Party~~
Party at my house.
6pm-??
No alcohol!

I looked at my phone one more time before hitting OK. I tried not to think about the fact that I somehow had David's number in my phone. I went through phone book and look at his name. Where there should've been a number was a Blank space...wow. Of course, guess who calls....

"Hey David."
"Hey jess." I felt something zap at the back of my neck.
"You umm...got my text?"
"Yea and, r u sure u wanna have that party tonight?"
"Yea y wouldn't I be? You have to come. Please..."
"Sure...talk to you tonight. Bye"

That was weird...I touched the back of my neck and I can feel the raised lines of the rose and it was hot under my fingers. Shit....my head was killing me. I felt my phone vibrate and saw it was john calling. I ignored the call again and saw it added to the other 27 times he's called....literally.

My face was still a bit sore from when he slapped me across the face. Asshole. I looked in the mirror...again...to make sure a mark wasn't left. Good...??? There was an piece of paper behind the corner of the mirror. ?? I took it out and opened it. There was a picture of another intricate rose and underneath in beautiful handwriting it said:

No mark can be left on something so strong.

??? I felt my heart beat faster as I touched the rose. I felt a sting in the back of my neck and then something like an electric current run through me but I ignored it. Maybe just a chill but then I could've SWORN I saw the lines of the rose shine. I felt a heat run on my shoulders and I figured this couldn't be normal. I shrugged off my right sleeve and saw a design circling my shoulders. It was raised and very intricate. As if human hands couldn't have made it and if they did it would've taken hours. I touched it and it was burning and my fingers hurt from touching it. Holy shit. Holy shit. HOLY SHIT! I ran to the shower and ripped off my clothes and ran into the shower.

The burning cooled down a bit and I went back to my room, and got dressed, I put and black skinny jeans, purple tank and my usual black and white converse. I went to the mirror and checked out my outfit and I saw David in the reflection and screamed as loud as I could and it came out freakishly and inhumanly high pitched.. And the mirror cracked, totally completely.
