JAKE

I sat alone in my room. I lay on my worn mattress, thinking about absolute nothingness. My mind was blank like untarnished paper.

Chucky : Hey Kid!

Jake : Huh?! Who's there?!

I was presented with a porcelain freckled face and daring blue eyes.

Jake : What the fuck?!

I pounced back on my bed.

Chucky : Yeesh Kid, first time you've ever seen a possessed doll?

Jake : What the fuck are you!?

Chucky : You're not very smart eh?

I started rapidly breathing.

Chucky : Man up.

Jake : What do you want?!

I shout at this unholy being.

I get buzzes on my phone. I tried to take it out but this thing threw it away.

Chucky : I want to help you Jake.

Jake : How?

Chucky : Everyone in your life is an asshole.

Jake : Your point hasn't been made.

Chucky : You really aren't that smart... Your cousin, Junior, he's a bully. Bullies have no place in this world. Lexy, she's the worst kind of bully, she doesn't have any guilt or remorse for her actions.

Jake : Unrepentant.

Chucky : Exactly!

Jake : Wait, so what are you saying?

It handed me a knife.

Chucky : Can you work this one out Einstein?

Jake won't answer my texts so he's probably busy.

I'm boreddd.

What would I have done? Probably hung out with Junior.

It sucks that he can't accept me. He was kind of a douche but he had his moments.

I opened my curtains and let in a breeze that brushed against my face as I opened my window.

I looked out my bedroom window, the moonlit sky reflecting onto me in euphoric agony.

I swear to god I'm actually emo.

The moon remained docile but it was calling out to me in a way that gives you butterflies of loneliness. I don't think I am lonely, I just long for someone to connect with on a deep level.

Why does my heart ache for more? I'm content with my life. I have Jake, the guy who won't answer the fucking phone.

I yearn for more. My mother is perfect, my friends were great but Jake is worth more than all of them combined, sorry Nadine.
