You're still mine and mine only. I told you I would find you my love. Nothing can tear us apart. Oh that "Male Friend" of yours looks quite close to you. -Your One And Only

My hands were still shaking as I read the letter. I was tempted to tear up the letter but I didn't. I finally had proof that my ex was stalking me and threatening me. I folded the letter and threw it on my desk then dialed Gusion's number.

"Come on pick up. Pick up!"

I was relieved when he picked up "Hey Les what's up?" He asked sleepily into my phone.

"Gusion!" I shouted into the phone with urgency "Please tell me you can come over?"

"Les its 3 in the morning can't whatever it is wait till tomorrow?" He whined

"No Gusion it can't... please..." I was now barely whispering. I couldn't let him stay alone, I was paranoid that something would happen to him.

Silence

"Alright I'll be there in 10." I heard shuffling in the background so I knew he wasn't lying.

"Thank you." I said as I hung up the phone. I felt less anxious now that he was coming over. I slipped into my slippers and headed toward living room. I sat down on the couch and just stared at the black screen of the tv my thoughts running wild.

Why did I meet him? My face fell into my hands and I let out a sob. I was scared of what he would do to the people around me. I wanted to move on. But I just couldn't because I had a damn stalker. A stalker that the police could never catch. I kept telling myself he was just trying to get to me but it didn't work. His bloody image still crept its way through my mind.

I could still remember my best friend screaming in pain and her uneven breaths before she passed away underneath him. I shut my eyes trying to make it go away tears were pooling into my hands.

I head the doorbell ring and snapped my head up I quickly dried my tears and tried to put on my best smile. I walked over to the door and was about to open the door when my gut told me to look through the peephole. I did and there he was standing there staring at the door with his dead eyes. I muffled a scream with my hand and stumbled backwards.

I grabbed my phone and texted Gusion.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lesley

Gusion

What's wrong?

Lesley

Come in through the balcony

Gusion
Have you called he police?

Lesley
No I wanted to warn you first

Gusion
Well?
Do it now!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The door bell rang again and this time there was a knock. My heart raced faster as I tried to punch in the number for the police. I moved as far away from the door as possible

When my phone got through to the police I immediately told them about the person behind the door. I had started to hyperventilate a bit at this point. I tried to whisper so that he wouldn't know I was talking to the police.

After I got off the phone with the police there was a light knock at the balcony door. I snapped my head up and walked over to pull the curtains back expecting to see Gusion.

I was so wrong. When I pulled back my curtains I saw him. He stared back at me and his lips curved into a sinister simile as he tapped the glass door with his finger. I fell back and stared back at him in shock. I felt my blood run cold as I tried to pick myself up.

I wasn't fast enough as he shattered the glass door with a brick and ran inside. I grabbed the nearest thing next to me a vase and threw it at him. My aim was off as I was trembling and it hit his leg instead.

He hissed in pain as he bent down and clutched his leg. I ran to the cabinet where I knew I had a pistol hidden. But before I could reach it I felt my foot get tugged down and I landed face first. I groaned as I raised my head up trying to recover from the fall.

I turned around to see him hovering over me a knife in his hand. "Long time no see my love."

My heart was pounding against my chest as the man in my nightmare was standing in front of me. "I can't say the same about you." I snarled trying to keep a cool facade

He reached out and held a strand of my hair to his nose and sniffed it."You smell just like how I remember." I shuddered in disgust

I didn't want him near me I wanted to get away. This man has given me nightmares for the past year. "Say you'll be mine and no one else will get hurt."

I gritted my teeth "Why are you doing this?"

"Because I love you." He replied now caressing my face.

"You're sick." I spat out

"Only for you." His thumb made its way to my lips.

I bit it and he winced in pain and moved his hand to grab my hair pulling it close to him. I let out a cry of pain and my hands automatically moved up to try to pry his hands off.

"We can do this the easy way or the hard way." He laughed out while the hand with the knife was slowing sliding across my cheek leaving a trail of blood in its wake.

"Screw you." I said tears now starting to fall.

He moved the knife to my neck and whispered "See you in the afterlife sweetheart."

I shut my eyes expecting the cold metal slice across my neck. But I felt the knife leave my neck and the hand that was holding my hair also left. I now heard shuffling and things being shattered. I opened my eyes cautiously and saw Gusion and my stalker fighting.

It was really just a one sided beat down though. Gusion had him pinned to the floor and was landing blow after blow not letting the other guy have a chance to retaliate.

Gusion got off after my stalker went limp and walked over to me. He got down on his knee and grabbed my shoulders scanning me with his worried eyes. His eyes narrowed in on the cut on my cheek. I saw anger flash through his silvery blue eyes almost immediately was replaced with concern.

"Are you alright Lesley?" He said taking out a napkin and wiping the blood away from my cheek.

I felt a blush and looked away "Y-Yeah. Thank you." I mumbled finding it hard to look into his eyes.

He pulled me into a tight hug. "Thank god... Thank god you're ok. Thank god I made it in time." He whispered his voice cracking and I felt tears falling onto my shoulder.

I slowly melted into tears as well not noticing I was holding them back until now. "I was scared Gusion." I sniffed

"Shhh. You're safe now." He whispered rubbing circles on my back soothing me.

We stayed like that until the police came. They took my stalker into custody, we followed them to the station to answer a few questions.

I walked out of the station with Gusion in tow. He grabbed my hand holding it tightly "Are you alright?"

I gave him a smile "Yes."

"Are you sure?" He pressed on worry still laced in his voice.

"I'm sure especially since he's behind bars." I answered I let go of his hand and pulled him into a hug "Thank you Gusion. I don't know what would've happened without you." I whispered into his ear.

He was stiff at first but relaxed as he hugged me back "I don't know what I would've done if you got hurt." He mumbled

I pulled back a little still keeping the hug intact "Can you stay the night? I'm still scared." I said. I felt my face flush and turned my face away from his gaze.

He chuckled "Of course whatever you want."
