Demons (ON HOLD)

I

Heart beating. Voices. Yelling. Screaming. I looked down. A knife stood in my hands, facing toward my heart. I was about to stab myself, but why would I want to commit suicide? It was so close to my body I could barely see the tip of the blade. Slowly it jabbed in my skin. I woke up sweating like crazy. What in the world happened? I looked at the time.

"Shit I'm going to be late." I quickly changed and got into a formal outfit. If you were wondering why, I'm going out with my girlfriend, Caitlyn. I was so excited that I was making sure everything went perfectly, that I forgot to put my dumb alarm on.

"Mason, are you up? Caitlyn's outside!" I looked out of the window and I saw her car. With my mom yelling it was hard to ignore. My mom has always let me do what I wanted, but when it's me getting hurt she trusts no one, and I mean not even my siblings. I walked downstairs, said thanks, and went outside.

"Hey babe, sorry I'm late." I was hoping that the place was still there, what was I thinking, it has to still be there no way it could just vanish.

"It's okay. Are you coming in or not?" I chuckled and got into the front seat.

"Shouldn't I drive? You don't even know where I'm going to take you."

"Fine.'' We switched seats and I started driving. I was heading to the new neighborhood that is super nice. How would I know? I go there after school every day so I couldn't wait for her to see it. Then at that moment, I stopped the car, and I felt like I was going to pass out.

I saw the neighborhood that I'd go to. It was a beautiful day with preprocessing flowers that are still blooming. Talking and laughing like someone just got them wonderful gifts over and over again. Everyone was playing until there was a black cloud over them. They all started running and screaming. I looked up to see what they were scared about.

Then all of a sudden I heard, "Wake up, WAKE UP!" I slowly opened my eyes to see my girlfriend, my mom, and my-

"I couldn't believe that you would be so stupid to go and not put the medicine in his drink this morning. No wonder why he passed out!" I couldn't quite tell who said that, but I recognized my mother's voice.

"It's not my fault he didn't take his water bottle this morning because he was too busy and in a rush. So stop yelling at me!" I looked over but my girlfriend was right in front of me so I couldn't see who my mom was talking to.

"He's awake." Somehow Caitlyn figured I was awake the entire time but just wanted me to hear what was going on. They all turned to me. It was such an awkward silence I wanted to end it as fast as I could. I turned around and finally saw who it was. It was my d-

"Are you feeling alright, how long have you been up mason, did you hear anything?"

"Yea I'm fine and no, I didn't hear a thing." So what it was just a little white lie, not like it would do anything. And by the way why was that the first thing she asked?

"So the doctor says you have to stay here and take some tests. Are you sure you are feeling okay?" I looked over and sat up. Then I thought if my mom was here she would have been overprotective. Checking my temperature and making sure I don't have a fever or a cold. That's not my mom, and that I know for sure.

I looked around but she wouldn't let me see the other person's face cutting me off with random questions, and it was starting to get aggravating. I finally looked at the door wondering what they would do if I bolted off the bed and ran out the door. At that moment I saw a figure almost like a ghost, no it was a shadow figure. It was me, but with fangs and blood all over me. I wiped my eyes and looked again to see if I was just imagining things. I guess I was. I looked at the time and I remembered I had school today. Out of all that's happened, that's the one thing on my mind, not being late for school.

"When can I leave?" I tried not to sound eager but I couldn't help it.

"The thing is you can't leave here in 3 weeks." For an entire 3 weeks, I'm supposed to be in this tiny ass room. They do know I'm claustrophobic right, because I'm going to go crazy! It was like they read my mind.

"You're not going to be staying in this room, you're going to go in a much bigger room but it will monitor and have a camera in the room so we can check if anything is wrong." Great.

"Let's show you the room, shall we?" He brought me to this massive room that looked identical to a suite. It had no doctor's things you would usually find in the hospital, not even a hospital bed. I spotted the cameras right away. They were the really expensive ones so they made sure they didn't miss anything.

"Can he come out of here once and a while so he can go to school and other important stuff." Caitlyn was the kind of person who wasn't afraid to ask anything or do anything, and sometimes that would be a bad thing.

"He can go out for school, but nothing else. Thankfully it's the weekend."

"Can I do after-school activities if I'm going to school?"

"NO, I mean no you can not you will come here after school at all costs and not go to that stupid new neighborhood, do you understand?" That's some bullshit, I can't even do what I want and they say that's normal.

"Yup got it." Another lie. Great. Just great.

They said by and left, and thats when you relize you'd rather have the tiny room all the doctor stuff. Why? Thats because of how normall it is, by that its like your stuck in your own room like your grounded. I couldnt wait for Monday. Im on the basketball and football team so they have no choice but to let me go to those or the coach would fight them himself. I still cant help but wonder about the random clips I had.

Heart beating. Voices. Yelling. Screaming. I looked down. A knife stood in my hands, facing toward my heart. I was about to stab myself, but why would I want to commit suicide? It was so close to my body I could barely see the tip of the blade. Slowly it jabbed in my skin.

I saw the neighborhood that I'd go to. It was a beautiful day with preprocessing flowers that are still blooming. Talking and laughing like someone just got them wonderful gifts over and over again. Everyone was playing until there was a black cloud over them. They all started running and screaming. I looked up to see what they were scared about.

You would think I forgot that by now because of how people dont remember there dreams, but when you where terrified for your life you cant forget them even when your old. I chose not to think about that for now. I went to the bathrooms, and thankfully there where no cameras because you'd think they where going to be perverts. I got into my pjs and thought about what my 'mom' was saying to that weird person, about how I had medicine in my drink and thats why I passed out because I didnt drink it like I usually do. No wonder why it always tasted weird.
