Winter Break -- VERY SLOWLY EDITING

Chapter 8

There was a week until Valentines Day. Melody and I are going to go out to the 'movies' but instead I'm taking her to a really nice restaurant called The Cheesecake Factory. I'm so excited! She is going to be so surprised!!!! "So, what should I wear? Turquoise or violet?"

"That Violet dress looks nice."

"Why am I wearing a dress all we are doing is going to a movie!"

"I know, I know but I want you to wear this for our special valentines date." I was going to wear my suit and surprise her! I already made reservations so Yay! I'm excited.

*************

Nate has been acting really weird lately. I don't think we are actually going to a movie. But who knows! "Carmen? Could I borrow your curling iron on valentines? Nate is taking me out on a date!"

"No! I will do your hair!" she sounds so excited for me. "And your makeup." I'm gonna go over to Tessa's house shell be so happy for me. "Daddy can I go over to Tessa's house?"

"Ya be back before dinner. Okay."

"Yes sir."

As I was walking down the street I heard foot steeps behind me. But every time I would turn around no one would be there. I played it off as just the wind. But the next time I turned around there was someone there. He had followed me from my street. "Who are you and why are you following me?" I slowly reached for my pocket knife my dad gave me when I was eight years old. "I think you are beautiful. My name is Hector. I wanted to ask you to the spring dance but I won't except no for an answer." I took a step back and ran as fast as I could to Tessa's house and banned on her door. "Tessa call Nate. Call him!" Then this Hector dude approached me. He grabbed my hair and slammed my head into the wall. But he couldn't hurt me before I had cut his arm. I fell to the floor and all I could see was Hector reaching down to me before everything went dark.

**************

I ran to the door because I had heard someone yelling my name and banning on my door. It was Melody she told me to call Nate. I dialled his number and then opened my door. But no one was there. "What the hell! Melody?! Where are you!" There was blood on the wall. I knew she was hurt. Then I finally heard it. "Tessa what's wrong! What happened to Melody! Never mind I'm coming over." I shut my door and sank back into the love seat. Only if I had gotten to the door faster. Melody would still be here. I started bawling. I walked over to the medicine cabinet. I grabbed the prescreption drugs. I opened the lid. There was no going back now. Before I could take them my mom came in and took the drugs out of my hand. "What's going on with you come sit down." I couldn't stop the tears from rolling down my face. All I could manage was "Melody is gone."

*************

When I finally woke up I was tied to a bed. By the looks of the walls I was in a warehouse. A sliver of light could illuminate the hole room. That indicates that it's small. Maybe 25x16. "Your up." Hector walked towards me I started to cry a little. "Hey no need for tears." He ran his finger through my hair. He leaned in and gently kissed me on the lips. His lips were soft. But I didn't kiss back I kept Nate on my mind the hole time. He gently lowered his hands to my hips. He released from the kiss, grabbed the hem of my shirt and started undoing the buttons on my top. I stated crying even more now. Once he had all the buttons undone he untied one hand to take off my shirt. Once he took off my shirt he tied my hands back up. His lips sauntered down my chest. "Please stop."
