Song: A Beautiful Lie-by Thirty Seconds to Mars433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsqULT62hR
“Good morning Los Angeles, California! You are listening to KIIS FM…” The radio echoed from the kitchen. “Hope you are having a great morning!”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFETTJcvwm
I wasn't going to have anywhere close to a good morning. I had to tell her today of what I had done. I doubt she would want to be with me after this. I had cheated on her with some brunette at a friend's party last night. ‘I shouldn't have drank so much.’ I thought. ‘I should've left as soon as that girl started getting on me.’ Amber is the sweetest girl I ever knew… She deserves better than some piece of shit person like me. I rolled over in bed and looked over to where she usually sleeps next to me. I sighed. She must have gotten up to make breakfast. I never wanted to hurt her but today I knew I’d crush her.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqnNxoV8Ca
She’d moved in with me back in June, but before then we had just dated over Skype for around three months. She is a beautiful girl, nice golden brown skin and her bright yellowish orange eyes, hence her name, Amber. She was perfect, finally I invited her to come live with me. I helped her get set up in L.A. I even found her a place to work, a Cafe near our apartment that was hiring. She was so happy with me and now I had fucked it all up. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwJ2jOmd5L
“Ashten! Breakfast is ready!” I heard her yell from the kitchen. I grabbed my robe off of the edge of bed, got up, and shuffled into the bathroom to wash my face. I stopped and looked in the mirror for a moment. My bleach blonde hair was a mess, and my blue eyes were dim and tired looking. I yawned.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoVITyBLMO
“You look a mess.” I snapped out of my daze and looked to my side. Amber leaned on the wall right outside of the bathroom. I meant to say ‘Oh yeah, thanks’ but what came out was something like, “Mmmmmk.” She laughed and turned to walk in the kitchen. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYGExgaF1A
“Breakfast is on the table sleepyhead.” She said. I walked into the kitchen and was met with the aroma of freshly made eggs, waffles with strawberries, and brown sugar bacon. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5vL9VRbHT
“Wow, you went all out this morning didn't you?” I asked her smiling, she looked at me. Her light golden eyes gleamed. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZ1JGNaUJh
“Yea...sorry. My favorite song came on the radio and I sort of jammed out to much and over cooked.”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKagWgW4BvQ
“Speaking of jam. Where’s the toast?” I asked. She smiled.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZYcG1T6X5
“It's in the toaster.” As she said that I heard the toaster pop from the other side of the room.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzlqJraRCU
I laughed. “Well done.”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMndGP6ulF
We sat down and began to eat. I'm not gonna lie, before she moved in I never cooked. I would usually wake up and go get myself something from McDonald's. She's an expert cook when it comes to breakfast, and I absolutely love it.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl8sx28Hp4
“So… What will you be doing today?” She asked.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGn0IRyAiu
“I don't know…when will you be starting work?”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YPzdUHNpC
“Sometime in a few weeks.” She said while she stuffed another piece of bacon into her mouth. “I'm actually really excited to start working there! You know, I might meet some new people. Maybe make some new friends.” 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nhJUsU3kz
“Good! I'm happy that you are finally starting to get used to L.A.” I smiled at her.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggm4Eyp16l
“Hey, and how was the party last night? You came back pretty late.” My heart dropped. ‘Did she already know what happened?’ I thought. I stared at my half eaten waffles and eggs. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZIKDVmFUF
“Yea, it was fun…”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun7yLxDaAF
She smiled, “Good, I'm glad you had fun.” She ate her last piece of bacon and got up from the table to put her dishes in the sink. “Sorry I didn't come along, I was feeling a bit sick.” She looked at me after placing her plate in the sink. “Are you okay? You look a bit worried.”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HDQUzOrOJ
I hesitated and then took in a shaky breath. “Hey Amber...I have to tell you this” I guess my expression went from worried to depressing because her glimmering eyes quickly faded. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsEprnDZJ2
“What's wrong?” She asked.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L4UvQe1hI
“Its...I...um…” I stuttered. “I-I messed up. I shouldn't have done what I did...I wasn't thinking I—”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMidyfXVN9r
“What did you do?” Her voice was stern now. I could feel that she had a sense of what I did.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PbjFoIoZc
“At the party...I drank more than I probably should have….and I slept with… some girl—I’m sorry” She stared at me for a few seconds that felt like months. Her piercing eyes were filled with anger and sorrow and seemed to stare straight through me.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXauZPQSG9z
“I-I can't believe you,” she faltered, “I TRUSTED YOU!” She screamed tears welled up in her eyes “IS THIS WHAT I FUCKING GET?”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l29KneYBP
“Amber please —”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAr2hiAfCF
“Don’t talk to me” She stormed past me and into the room slamming the door behind her. My heart felt like it was going to burst. I walked up to the door and listened. I could hear her crying…433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW092QPcQTC
“Amber, I'm so sorry I-” My heart wouldn't stop racing. I felt like I was dying. “Amber please—” I cried. “I need you in my life—I can't LIVE without you… I...I can't…you need to believe me...”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKJ0nyjCku
“Just go away…” She said.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG0ewIkmGh
“I- I'll be back later...okay?” I got no response.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgy8mCfDeN

I don't know how long I drove for.Maybe two, three hours? My eyes were red and irritated from crying so much. I thought of what I could do to make it up to her. I told her that I cheated on her because I hate keeping secrets from her. ‘She'll forgive me…’ I thought, ‘god I hope she does… ’ I kept driving for maybe a few more miles and then pulled over on the side of the road to think. My mind was running with regrets and disturbing thoughts of things I KNEW I deserved. I looked out of my window to see where I was. I was in the middle of nowhere...rural California. The car was sweltering since I hadn't gotten the A/C in it fixed, and I was running low on gas. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0NUGN6pqf
“Damn,” I said out loud to myself. “I probably have a gas can in the trunk.” I turned the car's ignition off, popped the trunk and got out of the car. The heat outside wasn't as bad as in the car so I was more comfortable with it. In the trunk were a few scattered tools and a pack of water bottles I was supposed to take in last night along with the Jerry can. I pulled out one of the bottles of water and opened it.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcVD2z5cug
“Thank god I found something to drink.” I mumbled then I took a sip and screwed the cap back on. I grabbed the jug of gas and slammed the trunk closed. After I filled up the tank with gas I went back in the car.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP85W9VlWby
“I just HAD to fuck up didn't I?” I said to myself. “She has only been living with me for TWO months and I had already fucked it up?” I let out a sigh and buried my head in the steering wheel.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZKCMKoZXX
“Why, aren't you a little fuck up?” A deep voice behind me spoke. I almost jumped out of my skin, I looked behind me to see a man in his late twenties with blue eyes, nicely combed black hair and a fine trimmed beard. He wore a fancy pure white tuxedo with black trim and a pair of black tuxedo gloves. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrBzNRaWoq
“WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?” I yelled.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMgI1DZgY6
“Well that's no way to greet an angel…” He smiled. I hesitated for a second. ‘Is this guy some sort of crazy male prostitute?’ I thought. ‘what other reason would he have to call himself “angel”?’433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpg4GAoflr
“An angel…?”I asked while I looked past him and through the car's back window for a possible vehicle that he drove in, there was nothing. I looked back at him. “DUDE, GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY CAR!” I yelled. He looked at me and laughed.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVjuJtGQCq
“Ash, you and me both know I'm not going to do that…”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlURqCYIAF
“How the fuck do you know my name? Who the hell are you?” His smile seemed to only get bigger.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWafC7uH8C
“How can I convince you that I am what I say I am?” I stared at him. ‘This guy is really desperate for dick isn't he?’ I thought. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOg3vqvggh
“Listen dude,” I said. “I don't who you are or how you know me, but here,” I took out my wallet and pulled out a 50. “Just take the money and leave. I don’t want any of your...service.” He gave me a confused look.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBb59IBcGq
“Oh, I don't want any of your money, Ash.” 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW8MvJMqnW
My heart dropped. “Oh so this shits turning into rape now, isn't it?” 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZTbsh6wHe
His eyes widened. “It is? I wasn’t expecting you’d want to do that...” he said sounding surprised. We stared at each other in silence for a minute.
“Just get the fuck out of my car.” I said. He sighed.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbZVmrQ4sw
“Fine, but really quickly I need to show you something before you—”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOFzlstKWK
“OH MY FUCKING GOD I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR GODDAMN DICK.” He stopped halfway through opening the door.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY5m3B6lPu
“What on Earth are you talking about?” He said, in a extremely confused voice. “You know what, I'm just going to tell you this,” He turned back into his seat and shut the door. “I am an angel. My name is Dawn from heaven and I've come to help you…” I realized that this crazy motherfucker wasn't going to leave anytime soon so I decided to give in to his act.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fDtW7Jw70
“Okay…continue…” I said reluctantly.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMQTTogxmb
“You cheated one the woman you loved, correct?”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA33gE1YsO9
I stared at him. “How did you know that?” 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl0gqTHnJ9
He grinned. “I told you… I'm an angel.” He crossed his legs. “I know how these types of relationships work Ash. She won't want to be with you anymore… You know that, right?” He looked down and study his glossy white Oxford dress shoes. “After all she DOES deserve better that some piece of shit person like you…”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbU4eQrtf2
I grimaced at the thought of her face when I had told her. All that trust I had earned from her over the months, gone in an instant. ‘She does deserve someone who doesn't cheat on her’ I thought.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE2upTLzS0
“Ashten, what if I told you that I could help you.” He looked up from his shoes, with a drop dead serious look and leaned in slightly as if he were telling me some sort of secret. “What if I could make her forgive you all in the snap of a finger.” 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWVFgsOnLa
I hesitated. ‘She'd trust me again,’ I thought ‘ Everything would go back to the way it was before. We would love each other even more… Rather than us having trust issues our entire relationship.’ I snapped myself out of the daydream of me going back home and everything being dandy, then realization hit. Something like this can't be fixed in a snap. It would take time…433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYOV0OTPDH
“Sorry, angel guy…ummm, I think I'll handle this myself.” He leaned back into his seat looking slightly defeated. 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfMPKEeR47
“Why would you wanna handle something like this yourself?” He asked. “Ash, she won't want you back after what you pulled...I bet she's packing all of her stuff up now and moving back to Calabasas tonight.”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQOk97s5b0
The very idea of that made me shudder a bit. I REALLY can't afford to lose her. “So… You say you could fix all of this in a snap? How…?”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NC3zpa4bO
He beamed with happiness. “ Well my friend I need your help in return. Do you agree?”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnuOvV5lgP
A tingle of hope climbed up my back. “Yes sure I agree, just help me fix this.”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oHvVv5fvG
He held out. “Shake on it.” I reached out and shook his hand in agreement.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0mEL0yXPb
“Okay now how are you gonna fix this?”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPsCRnNssH
He was beamed with excitement and began to remove his gloves. “Well first we have to get out of this car, it's quite hot in here.” We both got out of the car and stood on the side of the road. I leaned on the car and Dawn brushed off his suit as he walked over to me.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMJ8QwBviS
He snapped his finger, “There we go! Done.”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00JcQoJYRd
“Really? So it's fix—” Suddenly an excruciating pain fired through my body. I fell to the ground and grasped at my chest. “Ah...Oh God….wh—what did you—?” I heard him laugh from above me, I looked up to see him staring at me with an insane smile.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bN5EvPLz6
“Awww….Ash” He snickered. “ You okay?” 433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH8YBPZVNV
“You...lying son of a— AHHHH!” I groaned. With every breath my body shook with pain.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhin06CvZuU
“I didn't lie. Well, not about the deal…” My senses began to dual and my sight blurred. Dawn knelt down and stared into my eyes. “She is going to forgive you…People always forgive the dead... ”433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhOAbPBjUm
I wanted to cuss him out. I wanted to choke him. I wanted to KILL him, but I couldn't do any of that. My body was going numb. “Now that I helped you, you must help me. After all...Lucifer does need a vessel. Oh! And I will be taking that money as well.” He reached into my pocket and took the 50. “See you in Hell, Ash…” He said as he walked away, and with that… I died.
