What Did I Do Wrong? (Tate Langdon X Reader)

chapter 2

Your pov

I looked at tate one last time and started to walk towards the basement
I opened the door and went down the stairs, when I got to the bottom I searched some of the rooms

And then I found her

I smiled gently when I saw her with her two girls sitting on her lap
She was staring at the wall while her 2 daughters were staring at each other, they seemed to be in awe
I walked over to them and putted my hand on the mothers shoulder, she flinched a bit before turning to look at me, she smiled when she recognised me, her daughters turned to look at me the same time and smiled before jumping off their mothers lap and run towards me, giggling

"Big sister! Big sister!" They yelled as they hugged me

I kneeled down to their height and hugged both of them gently
Smelling their charred skin, burnt hair and clothes did not bother me at all
"Hi Margaret and angie" I smiled at both of them
They smiled back at me before parting and standing aside for me to see their mother
She looked up at me and smiled before standing up and opening her arms
"Hello (Y/N)" she said
"Hello Lorraine" I said walking to her and hugged her
She hugged me back but after a few minutes we parted
"I don't recall telling you out names" she said with a gentle tone
"Oh yeah I was too embarrased after our first meeting that I didn't ask for your names, so I asked around" I blushed and rubbed the back of my neck, embarrased

Lorraine stared at me for a while before chuckling
"(Y/N) You shouldn't be embarrased about asking us" she smiled
"Y-yea I know but I was still kindve embarrased that I didn't ask"
"Well now you know" she smiled
There was aomething is silence before I decided to ask,
"I noticed there are other spirits around not just the ones that I've seen" I said seriously
"Yes there are more in this house, but I have a feeling that more will come here" she then looked away from me and towards her two daughters who ran to the middle of the room to play with each other, they were running around chasing each other and laughing loudly

Lorraine smiled softly with a few tears in her eyes
"I'm happy to see them laughing like this once in a while, sometimes they can feel the flames burning their skin all over again and I regret bringing them with me when I hear their cries of pain, I try to at least put them to sleep for a while or even play with each other, but the pain seems to take over" she sobbed

Filled with sadness I went over and hugged her, she hugged me back

I knew it wasn't her intention to bring the girls with her, but I guess she didn't want them to stay with their father and a very big chance of an abusive stepmother

Both of the girls stopped playing to look at their mother, Lorraine wiped the tears off her eyes and opened her arms for the girls to go and hug her
They looked at each other before running towards their mother and hugged her
For a moment I remembered my parents, how they used to love each other and how the loved me, seeing the girls hug their mother so tightly

It made me remember the good times I had with my parents

I shook my head for a bit before turning to look at the movements that were outside of this room
A dark figure walked across the hallway and into another room close to this room, the girls and Lorraine turned to look outside
It seems that they felt it also
Now I wonder if we're safe down here

Tate's pov

She kept unpacking and helping her parents out
Though she looked like she didn't wasn't excited or happy about being here
'What's her name'
The only question that's been on my mid now
But other ones keep rising also, right now this one matters
All of a sudden the girl stopped what she was doing and turned to look at the spot I was standing on
She had a questioning look when She didn't see me yet
"Violet! What are you doing? Come help me start fixing your room" her mother yelled from upstairs
She looked up before turning to look back at the spot I was in
She then left the living room and went upstairs

'Violet'
I stood in the living room for a bit longer before remembering about (Y/N)
'Shit I forgot about her'
I then got out of my trance and went down the basement, only to find her in the floor, knocked out
"(Y/N)!" I yelled as I ran towards her
I shook her body to try to wake her up
"(Y/N) come on wake up!"
After a while of shaking her and calling her name she woke up
"Tate?" She asked while rubbing her head
"(Y/N) do you know what happened?" I asked
She groaned for a bit then held her head
"The only thing I remember is telling Lorraine to run with her girls before a cloaked figure appeared in front of me and told me 'An event is going to change your mind about staying here' before fainting" she said holding her head
A cloaked figure?
And an event?
What's going to happen that will change her mind?
"Ok (Y/N) stand up slowly don't be quick" I told her
After she stood up I decided to carry her so that she wouldn't fall while walking to our resting place
I walked to our place and layed her down
She was asleep when I putted her down
I gently caressed her face, careful not to wake her up
Her face was soft and delicate
I stared at her for a bit before falling asleep right next to her

I heard a noise outside our room, it woke me up and so I decided to check it out
I carefully got out of my spot next to (Y/N) and went outside
There was nothing out of place, but when it turned to head back into our room a cloaked figure appeared and stared at me dead in the eye
The walls started to fall and break
Fire was coming out from beneath me, the floor began to crumble and fall
I remembered about (Y/N) and wanted to see her and try to get her out of here
But what I saw when I looked up made me freeze
The cloaked figure was carrying (Y/N) in its arms and looking down upon her
It looked up and whispered something at me
Then I felt into the flames

I woke up from the dream and sat up for a bit

(Y/N) was still next to me and was asleep
There were no strange noises outside our room or anything out of place
I layed back down and pulled (Y/N) closer to me
She moved a bit but them calmed down and was still

I still questioning this
And I don't know if I still do or I don't anymore
But from the dream that I had
I wouldn't want any of that to happen
But mostly to her
