Burning Spotlight (2)

Stalker

(RPOV)

I tossed and turned all night, fighting the thought that my picture was still out there. Early morning sun caressed my cheeks as I turned from the window and shoved my face back into the pillow. I screamed into it for a few seconds and finally collected myself.

I sighed heavily, turned onto my back and stared up into the ceiling. Soft running echoed through the bedroom, followed by a light jump onto the bed and I turned back onto my side.

Tan came up to my face, licked my nose and nuzzled his into my cheek. I gave a small smile as he laid down in front of me and started to pet him, he nudged my hand.

"Morning Tan, did I wake you?"

He barked in response, I gave a light laugh and pet him some more.

"Didn't think so."

I sighed again, got out of bed and stood up. Tan followed behind as I walked into the kitchen to make myself breakfast.

Before I even tried to go to sleep last night, I shut all the curtains, double checked the doors and finally laid down. My heart raced for a good amount of time and then finally started to slow.

I let out a big yawn as I brewed myself up some coffee, went into the fridge and pulled out the eggs. I scrambled them, toasted up some toast and waited for my coffee to finish.

My heart sank as I put the eggs back into the fridge, I'm gonna need to go shopping, we're running low on some food.

I shut the door, "I'll do it later...I should be okay, hopefully."

My coffee finished brewing as I placed the plate on the table. I quickly grabbed a cup, poured some and sat down at the table. Tan laid by my feet as I picked at my food for a bit and finally let my hunger take over.

After I finished I sat at the table for awhile, watching the clouds completely cover the sky outside the window.

"Looks like it's going to be one of those days..."

I sighed, got up from the table and pushed my chair into it. I picked up my dishes, laid them in the sink and ran the water. I started humming to myself as I washed them, missing Tae the whole time.

"I can't tell him about this...not now at least."

I finished up the dishes, dried them and put them away. I washed the table off quick, hung the wash cloth over the faucet and headed back towards our bedroom.

Tan followed behind as I walked to my dresser, rummaged through it and threw on an over the shoulder tee and a pair of jean shorts. I walked back out, down the hallway and out to the living room.

Hours passed and I finally decided it was time to go shopping, I was getting hungry. I got up from the couch as I shut the TV off and went back to our room to collect my things, completely forgetting to call one of my body guards.

I grabbed my purse, house keys, phone and made my way to the front door. I opened it, shut it behind me and locked it up. I looked up to the sky and sighed, there was a storm brewing and I needed to hurry.

I walked about a block or two away from the house and finally came to the grocery store. I pushed open the door, smiled to the employees and did my shopping.

I only grabbed a few things, I can only carry so much since I'm walking. It took me about a half hour to shop, pay for it all and head back out into the evening. The sky was completely covered now and it was becoming windy.

I huddled myself as a cool, warm breeze washed over me and started walking my way back. Each step I took was followed by a rustle, I didn't think anything at first, but then it became more and more frequent.
