You And Us

Kate..Kate..Kate

After that day nothing happened for what i would say was a month. That was until i switched on the TV to see the girl that i was warned about on the news. She had been arrested for stealing a car and accidentally someone in a hit and run. By this point i knew that wasn't a coincidence and that you had been right in warning me again.

During the month nothing had happened i spent most of my time trying to figure out who you were. My best friend had stopped speaking to me because i told her about you and she seriously thought i needed help. So by this point i was completely isolated from the world and i had both my parents worried. My Dad recovered pretty fast and was living at his Mothers until he could get himself into a new place.

Since i'd been in for a month i decided it might be best for me to go to a party and try to get back to being myself again. On my way to the party with my best friend Emily,we picked up a bottle of vodka from the local liquor store that never asked for ID and started to drink it so we could be buzzed by we reached the persons house whose party it was.

The party went well actually until i'd reached the point where the room was spinning and balance wasn't even an option for me. Emily was dancing on the dining room table of this boys house and i couldn't get up off the couch after sitting down. Lifting my head up i could've screamed when i saw you standing there with that same hood up so i couldn't see your face. I shouted across the room where the music was blasting.
"What do you want from me now!" in my drunken state i flung myself up off of the couch and walked towards you but when i reached the spot where you were there was simply nobody there. I turned back to where i was sat on the couch to see the really creepy boy i'd been avoiding seeing for a while so this must've been another way of you keeping me safe.

Quickly realising there was people watching me i sat myself back down somewhere else and stayed silent until the party was over and Emily was ready to go. She asked me if i was having another "episode" at the party and i just laughed along. It hurt to be honest that she wasn't taking me seriously,but to be honest if it wasn't me going through it i wouldn't believe in you either.

Once i got home i was planning on just going straight to bed but as i walked into my bedroom i dropped my phone on the floor in shock and covered my own mouth to stop myself from shouting. There was writing on my mirror in my red lipstick i wore for the party. The message read.
"Soon you will understand."
I was still fuzzy from the party and as tears fell from my threatened eyes i wiped the lipstick away with makeup wipes and sat on the edge of my bed for hours until i ended up falling asleep on top of the covers.

That night i vividly dreamt of you again. You were calling my name and i was running in an empty building that i'd never seen before trying to find you but still i couldn't.

Waking up the next morning i felt like i hadn't even slept i had been moving in my sleep that much. Mum came and checked on me before going to work and saw that i looked shaken up but i insisted to her that i was fine.

As she shut the front door i heard your voice. My heart started to beat out of my chest and my breathing slowed. You were saying my name,just like in the dream.

"Kate..Kate..Kate..Kate"

It's all i heard. Tears fell from my eyes and i fell to my knees.
"i give up!" i shouted.
"You win." I said as my voice cracked with fear.
I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and looked up from the ground to see your shoes.
i looked up at you and you began to pull the hood off of your face. Finally, i was going to see who you were.
"It's okay." You said as your face came into the light. My body almost turned to jelly and began to shake as i saw the figure that had been watching me all this time.
