Dead Within but Still Alive

Chapter 5

"So, What's your answer?" He asked.

He had me pinned up against the wall, and with his arm around my back I couldn't go any where. He put his forehead up against mine and looked me in the eyes.

" You know, you almost scared me to death earlier when you wouldn't wake up." He said. He closed his eyes and sighed," I just wish we knew each other more."

For some reason the pain in my chest was so great that when I blinked a tear flowed down my cheek. His expression and tone of voice made me sad right now. Why? I wrapped my arms around his back and place my cheek on his.

He pulled away and looked at me," Sera, will you let me heal you?"

I looked in his eyes one last time. He truly meant it. I nodded and he pulled me closer. He kissed me and my eyes grew wide. He let me go and walked over to his bed," It's time to go to sleep. Tomorrow will be filled with events. you'll need your rest."

I nodded again and climbed into my bed. I could hear him breathing on the other side of the room. Did he just kiss me, again?

I fell to sleep fast thinking of him. What did he have in store for me?

I slowly opened my eyes to see Jeff next to my bed.

" Jeff, what are you doing?" I asked as I saw him.

He was looming over me, and all I could see was red glowing eyes and a wide cut smile. I sat up and he moved closer to me. He wasn't his normal self, and seem crazier than normal. I slowly shifted away from him until I was pinned in the corner. He walked towards me as the rest of the room went black. All I could see was Jeff standing right on top of me. He placed a hand on the wall next to my head and inched closer to my face. Suddenly I felt a sharp pain coming from my stomach. I looked down and saw bright red blood coming from the knife wound in my stomach. I looked up at Jeff, he had his head tilted to the side and his smile was wider then ever. He had a deathly crazy look in his eyes which made me want to scream and run, but before I could his hand flew up and clasped around my neck. He pushed my head up against the wall and I began to choke, gasping for air.

"Just shut up." He said, but it wasn't his voice. The voice was definitely less husky and masculine then his voice. It was still male but a littler higher ans scarier.

I felt another sharp pain in my lower stomach and looked down to see Jeff's knife in my abdomen. He twisted the knife in my stomach and I began to cough up blood as blood poured from my stomach. He still held me in the choke-hold up against the wall. My vision became blurry then I felt a pain greater then any other pain anyone has every felt. I looked down to see Jeff's hand on my chest. It was not normal. His hand was black with long sharp nails.

He began to shove his nails into my skin. I would scream if I could. Suddenly I felt something cold inside my chest and saw that Jeff had his whole hand around my heart. He held it in his palm and waited a moment. Then he squeezed and crushed my heart in his hand. I fell limp and Jeff tossed my body a side, but I could feel my body shaking as if someone were shaking me but Jeff had left and no one else was around.

".......ra!.....era!...... Sera!" I heard someone call.

Suddenly I felt my body jolt and my eyes flew open. Jeff was standing next to my bed with his hands on my shoulder, trying to wake me up. I sat up fast and moved away from him quick. I scooted back till my back hit the wall. I looked down at my torso. It was blood and hole free. It must have been a dream, but it seem so real. I relaxed and felt tears start to pour from my eyes. Whoever is giving me these nightmares, apparently doesn't want me alive.
