Chapter 18

Mom held my hands tightly in hers as we set at the table. Hayden and Reese stood in the corner with their arms crossed but instead of Hayden watching mom and Me like Reese was, he stared at Jay with an unpleasant expression.

"What is it like?" Mom asks

"What? Being dead?" I retort

"Yes! We're you in heaven for a few days or...Just where were you?" She asks again.

"I was actually here," I say, "I could only travel to Jay's house and here" I explain.

"Mom, let Cor rest but I need to speak with Jay" Hayden speaks up

"Yes hun, your right" My mom hummed

I went upstairs after helping mom clean up the dishes, no matter how many times she said to just go relax.

-Eros' POV-

I followed her brother and bitch of an ex into the living room, empty of everyone except us. Hayden grabbed the collar of Jays' shirt and forced him against the wall with a thud.

"What the fuck did you do" Hayden growled

"W-what? I brought her back" Jay flinched

"You used fucking magic bullshit on my sister to bring her back into a world that I think you ripped her away from" He growled, pushing Jay deeper into the wall.

"What the fuck do you mean I ripped her away from it?" Jay pushed Hayden off of him.

"She was so happy the night she died, she went to go see you! She fucking ran from something and ended up dead!" Hayden gritted lowly, "My baby sister ended up dead from something you did"

"Alright alright, both of you calm the hell down" I step into the conversation, put on hands-on either of their shoulders and rip them apart before they kill each other. Hayden walks out of the room, pissed off. Jay fixes his shirt and looks up at me.

"Thanks," He says

"I'm only doing this for Cordelia, she would hate catching you guys arguing" I state.

We stare at each other and finally, he leaves to go to the kitchen leaving me alone in the living room.
