English Love Affair

Chapter 2

About 5 minutes of walking down the gravel road. I reach a large mansion. Its gorgeous, I just needed to get away and go to the bathroom. I walk up to the front steps and sit down. I decide against just walking in and I sit there for a while. I brought my bag with me just in case I needed something and I did. I grabbed a Sweatshirt that's black and has "Pierce The Veil" on it. I pulled out my phone and headphones, might as well do something while waiting.

I play Pandora radio and start listening to one of my favorite bands. It plays an acoustic version of With Ears To See and Eyes to Hear by Sleeping With Sirens. I don't know why, but sometimes I like the acoustic versions of them better than the orginal.

Out of habit I start singing out loud.

"Lie lie liar liarrr you'll pay for your sins" I sing, I continue singing and every now and again I'd check the time, 9:00 9:03 9:10. A new song comes on and then ends and then a new one starts. One I haven't heard before.

The song starts and I'm unfamiliar with it. It sounds good though. Its 'Chloe' by Emblem3. Hmm, after the song ends I back out of the station and search Emblem3. I click the station. Its pretty good.

After about a half hour I start to feel tired. I stand up and start walking down the gravel road.

Snap!

I hear something in the woods. I pull out one ear bud and look around. There's no one there.

I started walking again.

Crack!

Theres crunching of leaves

I pull out my other earbud and spin in a circle.

"Who's there?" There's no answer and more rustling of leaves. "I swear, I will find you and rip out your throat!" I threaten

Then three black figures come running out of the woods. I just stand there trying to scream but it doesn't work. Their all wearing masks. Not those bugalar masks, but like creepy halloween "I haunt little kids" masks. One of them push me down and to the gravel road. The other two laugh.

"Hey, why are you such a freak? You weirdo" one of them says.

"Ya, why are you always wearing dark makeup you put to much on" the other one agreed. They all sounded like females...

"No wonder you always are wearing long sleeve. So you can practice hiding your scars. Why don't you just cut yourself?" They taunted.

"Ya, go kill yourself, you hoe"

"Sorry but I'm not a gardening tool." I reply keeping my calm even though my eyes threatened to spill over. A hand came down grabbed a handful of my sweatshirt and threw me down again. There was a pain in my rib and my arms. Im pretty sure they bruised my rib and reopened all my cuts. A foot shot back and I covered my face but nothing happened.

I didn't dare to look until after minute.

"Hey, hey.. Are you okay?" An unfamiliar boy asked. I looked up, tears spilling down my face

I didn't say anything. Instead I pulled my sleeves down over my bleeding wrists. His eyes widened. He doesn't hesitate to pick me up bridal style and rush me back down the gravel road to the mansion. He just opens the door.

"Um you shouldn't just barge into someone's house. Its rude.." I whisper.

"Its my house so don't worry" I nod and stay quiet. The inside of the mansion is so beautiful. The strange boy carries me up stairs and down a hallway. He then takes a right and then another left. We end up in a gorgeous bathroom. He sets me on the sink and pulls my sleeves up. He examines them and then puts my wrists under the cool water. After he cleans out all of the reopened scars he puts pain relieving ointment on a large bandaid and puts it on my right wrist. He then does it again but on my other wrist.
