Make it stop.
Vanessa laid on the floor, curled up in the fetal position. Arms wrapped tightly around her legs shaking.
I can't keep doing this.
Her eyes closed as she tried to stop the shaking. Alone in the darkness of her home Vanessa laid on the wooden floor. It's cool surface a comfort to her warm shaking body. An anchor to what was real.
I can't go on like this.
Her eyes stared at her own reflection in her long mirror. (Which resided across the room, taken off the wall propped up just enough to stand tall enough.)
She felt so distant. Like she was staring at her self from so far away. Her own body laid on the floor yet somehow it didn't feel like it was just her own. Like someone, or someones, we're home inside her mind banging on the walls of her brain.
She shuddered at the thought clenching her eyes shut trying to level her uneven breathing. Her new therapist called not that long ago asking to reschedule her appointment. She said she wanted to see her sooner, there were some discrepancies or something she wanted to talk about.
All the others said that too before they disappeared. The gaps in her mind were jarring and large. There were times she'd be standing somewhere and not even remember how she got there.
Like last night.
Vanessa peeled her eyes opened to stare at the floor. She doesn't remember coming into work. But she vaguely remembered talking to you. Maybe about covering for her when she had her sessions? It was fuzzy.
Then she couldn't remember again, it wasn't until this morning did she find herself midway through her rounds alone in the long hallways.
I think I'm calm enough now.
Vanessa heaved a sigh trying to push herself up off the ground. She felt dizzy.
"Are you?" Vanessa looked around wildly. There was a voice that wasn't her's inside her own mind. Her green eyes quickly looked back and forth around the darkened bed room finding no one.
"I'm right here silly."Vanessa's gaze snapped to the mirror finding someone, or something, standing in it. It looked like her. But it wasn't her.
"Y-you're not real." She gasped slowly scooting backwards as if that would help her get farther away from the hallucination.
"Every time I try to talk to you when I take control you do this." The reflection placed her hands on her hips. Jutting one side out shaking her head dramatically.
"It's a shame. You make yourself forget everything we've done together. All for him. How long will it take you to realize that I am you and you are me?"The reflection paused then swayed on her feet. A grin stretched out against her face, wide and unhuman, as she held her hands behind her back. She looked like a happy child.
"That sounds like a rhyme! I am you and you are me, I am you and you are me, I am you and you are me!" She continued to repeat the phrase. Vanessa backed herself up further, right up until her back hit the wall where she was cornered forced to stare ahead at the mirror.
This can't be real.
Vanessa swallowed thickly forcing herself to shut her eyes trying to recall what her therapist told her when she'd have attacks like this.
I wanted to get away from what I saw.
"But you can't get away. Because he's right here with you." The reflection whispered. Vanessa opened her eyes quickly with a gasp.
