The next day Archer and I were chilling in his office when Arrow crashed his way into the room causing us to turn our attention to him.
"He's dead," Arrow spoke out, without emotion, as he entered the room.
"He's what," I exclaimed, terrified.
Did Archer and the others kill my dad? Arrow said he's dead. So he must have been talking about Derek or who else? He must have been close enough to hear what we were talking about and, without a care, told me straight out what happened to Derek.
My hands were shaking as I covered my mouth in horror. Tears flooded my eyes causing them to cascade down my cheeks.
My heart broke with every second that passed without Archer saying whether Arrow was telling the truth or not.
"'Sup guys? What y'all doing up in here," Bow sauntered in the room, walking up to us. Once he saw me, he freaked out.
"Fable, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" He wrapped his arms around me, trying to calm me down.
"Grr," a growl erupted from Archer who was now trying to get Bow to back away from me.
"Stop," I shouted to get Archer to back away from Bow since he was only trying to comfort me whilst who knows what Archer was doing a second ago. Probably dumbfounded that I found out about their little secret he and Arrow had in between them since Bow seems clueless as to what was going on.
"Dude, I was just trying to calm her down. Look at her," he directed his hand in my direction. "Don't you see the tears streaming down her face?"
Archer looked at me with concern and worry. I also saw shame cross his face for a brief moment before he covered it up with his tough mask that shows no emotion at all.
"They killed him," I explained to Bow. "He's gone." I went to hug Bow but an arm pulled me back.
I looked up to see Archer look down at me with accusations and hurt. He looked betrayed because I was willing to go to Bow instead of him.
I glared at him as I pushed his arm away with as much strength as I could possibly muster up.
"Get away from me," I seethed out. Rushing into Bow's arms.
"Who killed what," Bow asked confused, his eyebrows scrunching up with confusion.
"Archer and Arrow. They killed my dad," I bawled my eyes out into Bow's shirt, clutching it as if it were my lifeline at the moment.
"What? No, we didn't," Archer spoke out, now looking as confused as Bow was a while ago. "Derek is still alive. We didn't do anything to him."
I looked at Arrow. "You said he was dead."
Arrow looked perplexed. Eyebrows raised up, lips pursed. "My bad."
"My bad?! My freaking bad?!" My temperature was rising as I repeated what Arrow just said.
"What do you mean," Bow asked walking towards Arrow.
"What's all the yapping about," Griffin asked as he made his way into the room, standing beside Bow and me.
"What did you do," Archer growled out, looking as angry as I was, or perhaps even a tad more, somehow.
"I technically did say 'he's dead'," then he rushed in, waving his hands frantically in front of him. "But I was not talking about Derek."
"Who were you talking about then? Who did you kill," I questioned him.
"I was talking about Griffin."
"Aw, freak me," Griffin whispered, shoving a hand in his face, looking embarrassed for being caught doing something bad, in just a couple of minutes.
"What are you talking about," Archer yelled at Arrow to talk.
Arrow hesitated, looking from Griffin to Archer.
"Well, um..." he stuttered.
"Spit it out Arrow," Bow said with frustration. "You know how I don't like waiting." He pouted as he stomped his foot on the floor like a small child.
"He damaged your car."
"That's all," Archer asked incredulously. "I don't care about the car. You freaking scared Fable. Don't you ever do that again. I don't care if you damage all my cars and eat all my favorite foods. But don't mess with my Fable." He all but seethed out. On his way out, he grasped my wrist and pulled me with him.
He caught me so unexpected that I crashed into his side.
He picked me up, bridal style, rushing out the front door.
"Where are we going," I hesitantly asked because Archer looked ready to punch someone in the face.
He looked down at me with his once cold green eyes, which softened once they settled on to me.
I was pulled into the depth of his green forest like eyes with no sense of direction. I couldn't look away, I was hypnotized. Archer seemed to be in the same position as I was because he wouldn't look away.
"Archer," I asked, looking away from his eyes and instead on my hands.
"Yes," he purred out, causing a shiver go down my spine.
"Um," I mumbled, nerves now.
He smiled at my reaction, focusing his attention in front of him and at last, away from me. Which was a relief because he made me nervous.
"You didn't answer my question." I finally spoke out.
"And what was it, may I ask. I was distracted because of someone." He gave me a brief glance then looked away with a grin on his face.
"I was asking where we are going," I said, blushing.
"To prove to you that I wasn't lying," he answered.
"Lied about-"
"About Derek being alive." Silence. "I know you still don't trust me and that's alright because we haven't gotten to know each other well enough for that, even though I'll trust you with my life because I got a couple of months ahead of you. But still, I want you to start trusting in me. I don't want you to see me as the bad guy every time something goes wrong and people are pointing their fingers at me. I want you to know, in your heart, that if something seems off, you would know whether if it was me or not."
"I'll start trying then," I smiled up at him. "But to get there, I'll have to get to know you better."
"I agree with you there."
"So no backing out."
"It's a date then."
"A date," I blushed with just saying those two small words. They gave me the jitters.
He wore a huge smile on his face that made him look more adorable than ever.
"We're here," he whispered sadly.
I looked up to see the recent house Derek bought a couple months ago, in from of us.
Archer put me down so I could go in.
As I made my way towards the house, I paused to look beside me and realize Archer wasn't there. I looked all around me to see he was gone.
He left me.

A there was that.
Alright, so I was watching The Conjuring 2 last night and got freaked out in the first 20 minutes of the film that I had to stop it.
I woke up in the middle of the night sweating and too afraid to move, that's how scared I was. I also thought I was hearing stuff before going to sleep that night, which didn't help my case.
Reasons why I don't like watching scary movies at night when it is dark.
So the next day, which is today, I watched the rest of the movie, but this time during daylight.
It was still scary but not as much as it was during the night.
So that's what I did during the weekend. What about you?
Comment/ Vote/ Don't watch scary movies during the night :'(
