My Forest Nightmare

Alone and Bored as Hell

Tiredly I roll over in bed but, there was just one problem... I couldn't feel Nathan beside me. Opening my eyes I blinked a few times so they could adjust to the light pouring into the room through the window. As I sat up in bed I noticed a note on the bedside table along with a phone.
The note read:
"I couldn't get away with staying home with you today and had to go to work. I'll be home as soon as I can, hopefully before dark. Left my old phone with you, call if you need anything.
My number is: 0467 953 793
ONLY USE IT TO CALL ME! DO NOT CALL ANYONE ELSE!
I'll see you tonight Baby, stay out of trouble.
- Nathan x"

I put the note back on the bedside table, got up and went to have a shower. I washed my hair and body then got out. After I got dressed in a pair of yoga pants, mint t-shirt, and put on some ankle socks I went downstairs to get some breakfast. I ate and sat on my arse in front of the TV, flicking through the channels trying to find something to watch.

Few hours past and it was 1pm so I got something to eat and sat back on my butt. Not long after I sat down I heard a phone ringing. I wasn't sure what phone it was until I remembered that Nath gave me his old phone. I ran upstairs to his room to get the phone, picked it up and stared at it in my hand. I was unsure whether to answer it or not, so I let it ring out and went back downstairs with it still in my hand. On the way down I felt it vibrate in my hand. It was a text from the same number.

"Baby pick up the phone its Nathan" Just as I read it out the phone rang again; this time I picked up.

"Hey Baby Girl"

"Hi"

"How are feeling? You okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine"

"Don't sound like it"

"I'm bored as hell" I replied and flopped on the couch as I turned the volume on the TV down so that I could hear better.

"Watch a movie or something?"

"Erhhh I'm over movies"

"Well what have you been doing?"

"Watching TV, which by the way is boring as hell because there is never anything on during the day! Erhhhh when are you coming home?"

"Sorry Baby but I'm working late."

"How late?"

"9"

"Please tell me you're joking" I whined

"Can't if you want the truth" I groan and stare at the TV. "Alysha I'll be home as soon as I can but I have to go back to work. I'll talk to you later, bye" He hung up and I sighed and looked at the time putting the phone onto the coffee table.

"Only 8 more hours until Nath comes home, Yay!" I say sarcastically and roll my eyes; staring at the ceiling. I turned off the TV and closed my eyes. Maybe if I went to sleep time would past by faster. But no. I woke up only 2 hours later. I was so desperate for something to do and had no idea how I could past the time.

'Maybe you should try and find out more information on all the girls Nath has had... learn what they did that got them killed... that way you know how to not get killed! And find out what makes Nath tick'
'And what if Nath gets mad at me for snooping?! I want to stay out of trouble not get myself into more!'
'You could just say you got curious! Sure he will understand that and let it slide?'
'I doubt it'
'Come on you know you waannna and besides it will be fun'
'Maybe I could do a little snooping... and Nath did say he's working late and won't be home till 9 sooo...'

With an evil grin on my face I ran up the stairs to Nathan's room to do a little investigating. I searched for hours, taking drink and food brakes every now and again. I did manage to find out a fair bit about Nathan; just not a lot - aka nothing - on any girls. I guess I'll just have to ask Nath about them. After everything I found out and the time I spent around him the past few days he doesn't seem that bad. I think I may even like living here with him... you know minus not being able to leave the house and being left alone practically all day.

As I walked down the stairs to get a drink I heard the door open and close. I run to the door and practically jump on Nath.

"Finally! Do you know how boring it is here?! I mean you can only watch TV for so long without getting bored!" I rant

"ahahaha I'm guessing you missed me then"

"Uh duh!" I said and let go of him. He put his stuff down and hugged me; I instantly hugged back. I guess I'm a lot more comfortable with him then I thought.

"Where's the phone?"

"Coffee table" I say and walk over to pick it up.

"You feeling alright? You're not feeling weak or anything?"

"Nath I'm fine! Stop worrying, I'm a little tired but I'm fine" I hand him the phone and look at him a little irritated that he is continuously asking me the same question.

"I'm not going to stop worrying until I know you're 100% better. Speaking of which time for you to have another feed" He says and brings his wrist up to his mouth, his canine teeth sharpening.

I groan not wanting to drink anymore of his blood. I'd rather him drink from
me than the other way around because it's just far too weird. "Do I have to Nath? I really don't want to and it's really weird and annoying! And besides I'm feeling a lot better! Practically 100%"

He just stared at me. His eyes darkened which made me shift my feet a little and step back slightly. They were still blue/green but darker than usual. That's when I heard a slight growl coming from him. "Don't start Alysha."

"I'll 'feed' later" I said air quoting "feed" and walked past him.

"You will drink from me now Alysha" This time he growled louder and grabbed my wrist, pulling me to him roughly. "And I believe it would be in your best interest to not even think about walking away from me again and do as you're told! I don't want to fight with you but I will punish you if I have to!" When he raised his voice I flinched. I didn't want to push him so I stopped trying to pull away and stayed still as Nath bit his wrist. He let go of my wrist and put his other arm around me when I started drinking. As I drank Nathan lent down to my ear and started talking with a slight growl. "Resist again and I won't hesitate to punish you because I'm getting real sick of it!" I whimpered and became limp against him. For rest of the night I thought twice before doing or saying anything.
