Sunshine between Rays of Darkness

what will you do when you unexpectedly cross paths with a person trying to end his or her life? act as if they don't exist? call help? calm them down? call them crazy?! yes, most of us would do one of those things. however, the case here is different. Ezra Jacobson decides to blurt out the first thing that comes to his mind to Viola Celeste. but you know what they say 'desperate times call for desperate measures'. that was exactly the case here. or was it? read to find out because it's either they save each other or drive each other into further oblivion. as I said read to find out :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ sneak peak: "you have 2 months" I found myself saying without looking him in the eye "what?" he asked "you said nothing ever deserves what I was going to do but do you really think that this life is worth living?" I ask raising my head to meet his eyes now "do you," I start slowly, "really believe that?" I wait for his answer and scan his face for any ungenuine emotions. "yes" he declares in determination and I ,for a moment, believe him He came closer and I stood my ground not wanting to show that he affects me in anyway. He stood directly in front of me his chest touching my arms which are wrapped around my own chest. He put one finger under my chin and raised my head to meet his eyes. He lowered his head toward mine and I tensed and was a bout to push him away but he tilted and breathed gently in my ear. "yes I do believe so viola the world is so much more than you think" he said with caution and took one of my the hands that are now beside me and placed it on my heart "can you feel it?" he asked and I nodded "That is called purpose. You're alive for a reason so don't ever give up" he coaxed and right then and there I wanted to know if I can really believe him. He backed away from me "I accept your challenge Viola" he said in a low voice and I loved the way my name rolled of his tongue.

Viola's POV

Abby dragged me inside the house by my arm while Daphne walked behind us rigidly.

"you look like you live here am I right?" Abby asks.

I still couldn't get over the fact they all like models. Okay yes, I am jealous from their looks. Abby had olive skin with luscious black curls and hazel eyes. She was wearing a short red dress that showed off her long legs and a v neck that showed some cleavage. Daphne on the other hand has short auburn hair that reached her shoulders and large dark green eyes. She was wearing a short black dress that was tight around the chest but flowy at the end until her mid-thighs.

They definitely looked ready to party.

"yes, only for a while I had pro-" I started to explain my face heating a bit from embarrassment at the thought of explaining everything. Fortunately, Abby cut me off.

"girl don't worry you can tell me later if you want of course but right now we have to get you ready" she said, and I nodded walking toward the stairs.

"so....vanessa you look like you know your way here" Daphne asks practicing an innocent look on her face. I felt bad vibes coming from her, but I refrained from judging her since I just met her.

"ummm...yeah" I say shortly walking toward my room "and it's Viola"

"we're here" I say before she starts talking again. I knew it was rude, but I wasn't ready to give my whole life story yet.

"do you have any dresses?" Abby asks looking around the room. I open the closet and get two dress off the hanger.

"this one is gorgeous ah am jealuuus" she says in an accent and pouts.

Her friendliness and warmness rubs off me and not to lie I like her already

"did you even look in the mirror you guys look like models" I laugh

"what are you talking about...I tell you what, just wear it and you will see for yourself" Abby grins while Daphne smiles shyly.

"do you have black stilettos with strings?" I nod unsure.

I wasn't sure I was ever going to wear it and now looking at it. It is a sexy backless burgundy dress with sequins all over it. It had very thin straps and fell mid-thigh. Looking at the mirror right now I wasn't sure if I want to wear it. It was very revealing and not my style. It was a gift from a friend I knew last year who gave to me before moving to another town. I never wore it once and a sense of nostalgia settles on me.

I shake my head not wanting any negative feelings right now that I can do later at night.

My body surprisingly looked tan and not pale as usual. I open the bathroom door slightly to see  Daphne and Abby sitting at the edge of my bed.

"what do you guys think?" I plaster a smile on my face.

"you look amazing gurl now I am definitely jealous" Abby claps her hands and takes a good look at me.  Daphne does that too.

Daphne loosened up judging by the smile she had on, and her relaxed shoulders.

"we just have to curl your hair and finish your make up and then we're done" Abby says.

Fifteen minutes later. We're all set and ready to go. I am pleased with how the whole look turned out. I take one last look at the full-length mirror at the corner of my room. The dress hugged all my curves in the just the right places. It emphasized my small waist and wide hips which I still think make me look fat despite what Abby kept saying.

The stilettos I am wearing made my legs look long although I doubt I would survive the whole night with them judging by 6in heals that are killing my feet already. I had my blonde hair curled and flowing till the end of my back covering it. I decided to only go for eyeliner, mascara, and lipstick finishing my look.

I grabbed a small black purse and threw my phone and some money in it. I applied my usual nothing fancy perfume. And because I don't have any other perfume with me.

We went downstairs and went to the living room to see only Ezra standing.

"where are the guys?" Daphne asked him with a brisk tone. He didn't even bother looking at her before muttering that they left. Both Abby and Daphne head to the door, leaving me and Ezra alone.

From the moment he laid eyes on me, he didn't remove them, and his mouth fell open. I grinned at his expression and he visibly gulped.

"close your mouth or you will catch a fly" I sing song and smile. He flushes and rubs the back of his head.

"you...you look stunning" he stutters

"you clean up well too" I say taking in his look. He had a black jeans ripped on the knees, a plain black t-shirt, black leather jacket, and black boots. He has his silky black hair pushed back with only one strand falling on his eye. Seeing him with suits all week made me forget just how delicious and hot he looks with all black on, the leather jacket included.

His usual sheer leather and citrus aftershave makes it way inside my nose and I almost feel my knees give out. In the week we knew each other I became addicted to his scent. For some reason every place in the house and even his car carried a faint aroma of him.

"we should go before I do something I regret" he says timidly, and I just follow him contemplating if I should tease him.

We reach the club each of us in our separate cars except Ezra and me are in his white porshe. we find a long line in front of the door, but we quickly and not surprisingly go toward the VIP section.

"you look hot babe" louis says to me when we meet them inside. It seems we got the last there because they were all sitting at the bar.

"thank you" I say blushing and look at him

"she's off limits Louis" Ezra grunts from beside me and I am surprised at his words. I turn to scowl at him, but he just avoids my eyes still glaring at his friend.

"awhh but where's the fun in that" he says playfully and winks at me. I laugh and then I feel Ezra's warm hand at the end of my back. Again.

"okay okay jeez chill dude" he says and turns toward the bar. I follow him and decide to ignore Ezra because I knew fighting with him would be no use anyway.

I hop on the empty stool between William and Ezra. A few minutes later we're all talking and laughing. Even William and Daphne. William had that studying look in his piercing grey eyes that intrigued me. He looked mysterious in his all-black look and the intense gaze he watched people with. Ezra told me the William and Daphne didn't warm up to people as fast as Abby and Louis did ,which I already understood just by looking at them.

I felt slightly lightheaded even though I drank only like two or three shots.
