(You're starting as yourself again!)

"Damn it, why do I have to be such an idiot!" I was yelling at myself. Until I heard a knock on the door. It was Donna, it made me feel even worse. "Yes?" I felt like breaking down but I didn't. "Sorry to bother but may I come in?" Donna sounded really calm.

"If you don't say something I'm going to say it for you." I ignored it. "I guess you can, it's your house." It said for me. 'You asshole!' I screamed at it "sorry couldn't help myself" it snickered. I heard Donna walk away. 'You fucking dick' it was laughing. I felt like such an ass hat, I wanted to make up to her so I wanted to see the Duke, but that meant telling her that I was leaving. I know she doesn't like the idea of me leaving. I remember a month ago I told her I was going to leave. She gave me a look that sent shivers down my spine. It still haunts me sometimes. I never left.

'I wonder if I tell her that I'm coming back, would that have a different outcome?' I thought.

"Maybe who knows?"

I walked out of my room only to see Angie with her hands on her hips like an angry mother. I internally irked knowing that she was going to yell at me.

"You hurt Donna's feelings." Angie said like she was going to kill me, I wasn't surprised. She probably would at this point.

"I know, I feel like an asshole." I sighed. "I-" I got cut off by Angie.

"Y'know, for someone to look so sweet and innocent, you're just a bigger threat than anyone else."

'Ouch'

"Ouchies you fucked up"

'More like you did you dumpster fire'  without even noticing that Angie was talking. I ended up zoning out like an idiot.

"HEY! ARE YOU LISTENING?" Angie screeched at me, I jumped. "YOU WEREN'T! YOU NEED TO APOLOGIZE TO DONNA! RIGHT NOW!" Donna must have heard Angie and came running.

"Angie, please stop, didn't I tell you not to scream at her?" Angie gulped. "Welp Angie fucked up." It said snickering once again. Angie immediately dropped her head and walked off, doing the walk of shame. It thought it was funny, I felt horrible. I got her into this mess in the first place. Donna had her veil on, completely, I couldn't read how she was feeling. She did sound upset at Angie but I didn't know if I made her upset or Angie yelling at me. Either way I still felt awful. She looked towards me, and she sighed.

"Did Angie hurt you?"

"No, no, I'm fine!" I gave her a reassuring smile. "I- I'm sorry for being such an asshole earlier." Donna made a small noise.

"No you weren't, I could tell you were upset so I understand." She said that calmly, Although I thought she said that over calm.

"Yeah but that doesn't mean that you should just let me walk all over you, I just want to make it up to you somehow." There was silence for a moment, I could only assume that she was thinking. She walked towards me, then she hugged me. She whispered something in my ear. It sent shivers down my spine even though I didn't catch what she said. She buried her head in my neck, so we stayed there for a minute. It was nice, getting to hug her. Until Angie screwed up the moment and came stomping into the hallway and said some gremlin shit I didn't understand.

Later that night it was around 10:30. It was odd the whole house was quiet, like it used to be. I thought it was terrifying. It hasn't been like this since I got here a few months ago. I feel like I give them too much trouble sometimes, and the fact that she has to go to a meeting tomorrow doesn't make it any better. She's basically overrun with work, and barely any fabric because of it. I plan on going to the Duke tomorrow after she leaves, of course I plan to tell her before she leaves. I don't think it would be right to sneak out without her knowing. That was it's idea, which of course is dumb. I didn't know what to do, Donna was probably working and Angie is probably still pissed at me. I had to stay in my room with it. It's really annoying, it won't shut up about what happened earlier. 'Could you shut up please?'

"Awh getting sour are we?" It said chuckling, my blood was boiling. I just wanted to be alone with my own thoughts without being judged by it. Silence in my head for once but because of that cursed place I'm stuck with it. I want to know who's behind me being stuck with it. I went downstairs to grab books trying to figure out anything about the place I was or it. I know it heals me and that's about all I know at the moment. I stood looking at the different books, most of them were about different plants. The flowers in the books were in the garden.

'Hey now that I think about it, there's a locked part of the garden, I wonder what's behind it.'

"But you always have to think about how Donna would feel. I personally think she'd feel intruded on."

'Wow, a good idea finally' I chuckled.

"Whatever." It huffed, I wanted to burst out laughing but I couldn't. Donna and Angie went to bed already or that's what I thought anyway, I can't help feeling like she's still mad at me. I want to apologize again, even if she's asleep. 'I wonder if she's still mad at me then shouldn't she kill me? I mean, if she's that upset I'd let her do it to be honest.' I sighed, waiting for an answer from it, but it didn't say anything. 'I suppose you want me to keep overthinking, huh?' it didn't answer. 'Very well. I haven't been outside for awhile, wonder if she'd let me into the garden? She probably wouldn't, considering that she cares about me way too much. That's probably why she hasn't killed me, or could it be Mother Miranda wanting me for something and she ordered Donna not to kill me?' The realization hit me like a truck. 'THAT'S IT! THAT'S WHY I'M HERE!'

"Huh?" it was confused.  I made sure to say what came to mind at that time so it wouldn't hear what I was going on about. 'Never mind, I'll tell you and her when the time is right.' "Oh? OH! Oh." It must have figured it out. I smiled. 'Donna hasn't said goodnight yet, although there is that possibility that she doesn't want to be around me at the moment, nevertheless she still would have said goodnight, even if she was mad at me. She may still be working. She's been working overtime some nights so it might be one of those nights where she just wants to get the finishing touches, then where would Angie be? She may be in bed already. But I doubt that she would leave Donna by herself, let alone a chance that I would go down there. I'm going to give them their space, I don't want to end up upsetting them more, or upset again.' I stared off into space. "KID!" I jump. "Someone's at the door."

'Huh? Which one?'

"The front." I got out of bed to go into the living room and see who was at the door. 'Shit is someone trying to break in?'

"That could be a possibility. Wait, check downstairs to see if Donna is there." right has it said that I heard a scream. 'FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!' I rushed to the elevator as fast as I could. On the way I grabbed a small kitchen knife just in case. The elevator stopped, I pushed myself out of the crack in the doors. I ran as fast as my legs could take me, I burst through the door. I saw a man-like figure over Donna. Her veil was off, she had pure fear in her eye, but like an accepting facial expression. The other half of her face was infected. I didn't have much time to think. The figure had something sharp. "KID LET ME TAKE OVER."

'I CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT ARE YOU CRAZY?!'

"FINE" I held on tightly to the small kitchen knife I had grabbed a few moments ago. 'Looks like I'm going to have to do this.'

"Y/N! SAVE HER STUPID" I heard Angie scream. I ran towards the figure, Donna looking at me confused. I stabbed the figure in the shoulder. "FUCK!" I heard him scream. "CRAZY ASS BITCH GET OFF ME!" A smirk formed on my lips, and a dark chuckle came out. "What the hell?" he was confused. Fear struck through him as his heart was pierced. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU?" I chuckled again. "The last thing you'll ever see" a dark laugh after the sentence as the man died in front of me, Angie and Donna. I turned to Donna after looking at the man for a while, he seemed familiar.

"Are you alright?" I asked Donna

"I should be fine." She smiled nervously.

"Damn didn't know you could do that, shytt" Angie said, making me laugh at her. Donna was still a little dumbfounded, but relieved at the same time. She looked horrible, the other part of her face that had been infected, bled but healed pretty quickly.

"Thanks for saving our asses Y/N." Angie said. It surprised me. I didn't think she had it in her to thank someone considering it's Angie. I was talking to Angie and looking back at Donna she looked like she had an idea. I didn't care. I just wanted to make sure she was okay, I held out my hand to her and she took it standing up, face to face. She stared into my eyes. "I mean you like her might as well." it said reading my mind. She did it first, she kissed me. Before Angie could protest, she thought how happy you made Donna, she didn't say anything.
