After the Divines

It Should Remain Hidden

School went back to normal like nothing happened except, well you know Lilith being an app and talking to us. It's been a year now and we are all still in school since we were freshman when it happened. We all still hangout and talk to one another, but like I thought Ash went to go talk with Ryan again and some other new students. She has been hanging around them way more recently and barely talked to us. It's not like I'm jealous or anything it's just the rest of the groups misses her is all! We now have dorms now it's just we have to make our parents register us so we can stay in them. Everyone else already did theirs its just now I have to do mine.

"Tycer when are you going to get your dorm! Time is running out man!" Chad said to me in a aggravated tone. "I will get mine soon hothead it's just my....parents aren't ready to let me leave yet, yeah that's it!" I said hesitantly. "Fine, I guess I can understand that. Anyway, let's go talk with the others they are probably already waiting for us at the lunch table." Chad said happily. I then nodded my head and we went straight to lunch. When we got there I could see that Ash and finally was at our table again. Don't get me wrong, of course I'm overly happy, but not because I have crush on her. It's just we went through so many things as a group and it felt like she was slowly drifting away. As we sat down we said our Hellos and we started to talk about what we are doing today. But, as everyone else was talking I slowly started to lose focus and started to think. How was I going to let my "parents" sign the paper if they are... dead? I'm mean I live in a orphanage for crying out loud! Not a good one at that, I'm mostly been the owner little punching bag while I was there. And I still have the scars and trauma from it and it doesn't help when I went "home" it started again. That's why I have this trench coat, but mostly I have this outfit because it was my dad's...he loved this thing to bits since it was my mom first present to him. It's the only way for me to remember them by. I was suddenly taken from my thoughts my a violent call of my name. "TYCER!" I heard someone call. I was so shocked I fell out of my seat and on the floor with a thud. I looked up terrified because all of my thoughts I have been having I thought it was the owner, but only to find it was Chad that called me. I guess I was hyperventilating because suddenly Misty, Logan, Ash, and Chad came rushing to my side saying calm down. "Tycer breathe it's fine." Ash said calmingly. I soon looked up and to see their faces staring at me worried. To try to lighten up the mood I soon got my act together and started to make a joke out of the situation. "When I wanted your guys attention I didn't think it would be like this." I said jokingly. "Wait were you faking being terrified!" Logan said in frustration. I soon said, "It worked didn't it." I said like I didn't care. They all looked at me angrily, even Lilith. I guess she was worried too. They all soon yelled the same thing. "TYCER!" They boomed. I flinched because I was still having thoughts about how the owner used to yell at me like this. Ash soon said, "You had us seriously worried, we thought something was wrong and you knew about it!" She said angrily. Trust me I felt bad but I kept this image for this long even when I didn't have my memories, so why stop now. "It was just a joke fart girl calm down." I said in a teasing manner. I was soon slapped my Ash across my face. Everyone in the cafeteria looked at us and the group instead of looking angry looked shocked. When I turned back to Ash, I saw tears forming in her eyes. "WHY DID I EVER FALL IN LOVE W-WITH SUCH A JERK!" She shouted. I looked at her shocked as she was running away crying. I soon looked at the rest of my friends and they either had an angry or disappointed look on their faces. They soon left to find Ash and as they all past they said the same thing. "Nice job Tycer." As they left I was still standing there in shock. "What have I done?" I mumbled. I soon saw Ash's old or still maybe crush Ryan coming over and he looked angry. "Why did you do that to Ash!" He yelled. "I do jokes like that all the time she never seem to have a serious problem before." I said nonchalantly. I was soon slapped by him on the exact same cheek Ash hit earlier. "What did she ever see in you?" He asked as he walked away.
