A lot To Remember

Chapter 6

"Mom I'm back!" I scream as I march through the doors, I got a quick response as I cut her voice off by running up the stairs and into my bedroom.
There on the bed was a box of chocolates. I ran over to it and read the card

Their coming for you...they know where you are...

My heart sank as I opened the box to reveal a bunch of worms. I gasp and let go of the box so that it hits the ground. I can't let mom or Trent see this so I hurry to throw the box out and decide to keep the note.
The first person I was going to ask is chase...maybe not tomorrow though, I want him to believe me.

"So why don't you try out for football if your so fit?" I ask poking at my lasagna. Chase sends me a smile and laughs a little.
"Well I.. I don't know I guess I'm not the 'jock' type and I like to keep a low profile" I stare at him shocked by his reply.

"Oh me too I guess" I say half lying. I would never be popular and it's not like I wanted to be anyways. He chuckles a bit and puts more of his salad into his mouth.

It's been about two weeks since the chocolate box incident which I kept secret. Chase and I hung out a lot and always ate lunch together at school.

"Want to hang out after school?" I look up at him and smile.
"Sure"

*********

"Where are we going?" I ask after we've walked many many blocks. He chuckles and I get angry. I stare at him shocked. What if he's only doing this on purpose to put me through torture.

"What?! What's so funny?! I'm tired and worn out and your laughing!" I ask rather loudly. He stops abruptly making me bump into his back.

"Idle we've only walked one block away from the school how are you tired?" He asks I scoff and cross my arms over my chest not believing him.
"Take a look" I turn around and look up the one block to see our very visible school.

His chuckles turn into enormous laughter and i smile at his amused expression.
"Idle why are you smiling at me like that? You look like chucky" he says after his laughing fit. I snap out of it and smack him across the arm.

"Chucky is my brother how did you know?!" I add excitedly. He starts to laugh again and starts to head down the block. The one block.

"Are we there yet?"I ask looking behind me to make sure we weren't on the same block.
"Yes"
"Oh come on how much lon- wait did you just say yes?" I ask relief surging throughout my body. He turns around and grabs my bag from my back to carry before flashing me a smile.

"Yes we are here" he says I look around and see nothing extraordinary, just a street with a bunch of houses. I turn to the name of the street and gasp this is where I used to live. So what were we doing here?

"We are going to my house" wait did I think that out loud I'm sure I didn't. Chase didn't seem to notice my conflict as he brought me up to the biggest house on the street. I used to envy this house it was always considered a mansion to me. I watched his back as he brought out a house key and unlocked the door.

"Come on in you can put your shoes over there" he says I nod as he takes his shoes off and dumps our bags next to the door. I grab my phone and put it in my back pocket before untying my black vans and putting them next to Chases sneakers.

I looked up expecting to see chase but he was gone. Oh sh!t.

"Chase! Chase! I'm still by the door" I scream out but get no answer when suddenly all of the lights turn off and I'm left alone in the dark. I reach for my phone in my back pocket but I don't feel it there.

"Chase this isn't funny!" I yell I hear laughter so I swing my arms and legs at every direction till someone grabs my arms and I squeal.

"Let me go! Chase help there's a rapist!" I yell at the top of my lungs as more laughter fills the room. Then my arms are freed and the light is turned back on. On the floor is chase laughing, holding his sides for comfort.

"You should have heard yourself!" He says laughing. My anger subsides as he laughs. He looks so carefree and happy and well he never looks this way he always looks stern and far away.

But then thunder roars and the power shuts off leaving me squealing again.

"Calm down! I'm right here" chase says hugging me I take in his scent and feel dizzy. He smelled so familiar. Why? But I had no time to answer that for myself cause the last thing I remembered was falling to the floor...
Into real darkness.
