The sweet tooth stalker J.w

chapter 2

I go into the room and recite my lines.
"Thank you for auditioning, we'll be in touch in a week." Says the woman dressed as an eccentric drama teacher.

I go and meet back up with the guys.
"How'd it go?" Aaron asks. 
"Better than I thought it would." I replie.
"Well I'm sure you'll get the part." Corey interjects.
I smile, it made me happy to know that all my friends had more belief in me than I did.
My phone buzzes

Arceus: Hope your audition went well

my heart went crazy with adrenalin. Sweat beaded at my forehead .
He was here I was sure of it.

Arceus: Look to your left.

Immediately my head turns to the left. A guy with a black beanie covering his auburn hair and a black tracksuit on.
I grab both Corey's and Aaron's hand. We walk at at a quick pace.
"What's wrong?" Aaron asks.
"He's here." I whisper as we exit the building.

We make a B line for the car. The three of us buckle in and the car comes to life , we zoom off home.

When back at the house we don't waste anytime getting in . We lock the doors before just standing there trying to process what just happened.
"H-he was there." Corey says trying to catch his breath.
"Yes, oh god I haven't seen him since I left Wisconsin." I answer.

After I stand in the same spot for a while longer, I pull out my phone and ring the detective that I had gone to report the freak with Jake. He hadn't seemed to care the first time but I knew I had to be persistent.

Once I had hung up from the phone call I go and sit on the sofa.
"Brook you should be getting a restraining order ." Aaron tells me.
"I've been trying to restrain that bitch for nearly 3 years." I say trying to show in my voice how much I've been working on it. "It's the detective that has not been doing his job." I add.

Jake appears in the hallway.
"Hey , how'd the audition go." He asks.
"It went really good, it was after the audition that didn't go so well." I tell him . 
"Arceus appeared didn't he." Jake responds through gritted teeth.
I nod.
"But don't worry he didn't see any of us and I've already called in a police report." I reassure him.

"And what's the odds  that , that imbecile of a detective will actually do his job." He says his emotions raising.
Jake envelops me in his arms, he nuzzles his nose into my lilac coloured hair.
"Nothing bad is going to happen to you." He speaks softly.
Jake always knew how to make me feel safe.

"I'm sorry for being such a burden to you all." I apologise.
"Don't be silly Brook , you are the best thing to happen to me ." Jake replies.
"We are all happy we met you." Says Corey.
I smile , all my anxiety lifts .

3 weeks later, I was sat at the kitchen table once again looking for auditions . I had lost hope in getting the part of Ariel as it had been so long.

As Ii email different agency's, I drink coffee and sink my teeth into a soft pain o' chocolate . Suddenly I get a notification.

'Dear Brooklyn Evergreen I'm extremely delighted to inform you that you have gotten the role of Ariel  in the little mermaid.
                          yours sincerely , Roman Watts'

I scream. Jake runs into the kitchen.
"What is it?" He asks in a worried.
"I just got the part of Ariel." I exclaim.
"Jeez Brook, I thought something bad happened by the way you screamed. Well done though I knew  you could do it." Jake says.

"Congratulations Brook." Sam says from behind Jake.
"Yeah congrats." Colby says.
" This serves for a celebration ." Jake says.

Later that night.
All our friends where  in the living  room.
One by one they congratulate me.

The window was open to keep the room cool on this summer evening.
I couldn't lie this did give me a little bit of anxiety considering Arceus knew where we lived .
I wasn't able to tale my eyes off of it until the girls decided they wanted to go into the kitchen for refreshments , I followed.

 Midnight , I was once again staring at the open window . I could have sworn there was a dark figure just a metre of the window. I run to shut the window. As hard as I try to pull the window closed, the figure that I could now see in the light it was Arceus , he was trying to keep it open.

Jake sees the commotion and runs over to me .
"Go upstairs now." Jake commands.
I'm reluctant to but I do as Jake says and make my way up to my bedroom.

Suddenly it gets louder downstairs, screams ring in my ears followed by sirens.
As quick as the noise had started it all died down.
Even though I wanted nothing more than make sure everything was ok, the thought of Arceus still being downstairs scared me to my core.

All of a sudden there was a knock at the door.
"It's Corey." Corey's voice comes from the other side of the door.
I let him in.
"What on earth happened?" I ask.
"Arceus took a knife out and used it on Jake , we don't know how serious his injuries are yet.  Colby, Aaron and Sam went  to the hospital with him. We're gonna go now." Corey explains.

I'm overwhelmed about the news I was given.
"But what about Arceus, where is he ." I question panicked.
"The cops chased him away, don't know if they caught him though. Don't worry I won't let anything happen to you, cause if I did Jake would kill me." He says.
we make our way to the car.
