Blood Stained Kiss.

Killed

I woke up on the floor of my room, after Joe finished with me he threw me onto my floor and left me there.
I didn't feel like getting up so I pulled my blanket off my bed and over my body.
I heard my phone buzz but I ignored it.
It buzzed multiple times before I got up and shut it off.
I grabbed some sweat pants and a hoodie and threw them on.
I lay in my bed exhausted.
I was almost asleep before a loud bang on my window jolted me awake.
I shot up and looked at my window and saw Alonzo.
I slowed my breathing and got up. I open the window and let him in.
I sat on my bed and yawned.
"Why aren't you answering your phone?" Alonzo asked me.
I shrugged.
"I turned it off." I informed him.
He sighed and kneeled down in front of me and grabbed my hands.
"Tell me ahead of time next time. I thought you died." He told me.
I felt my cheeks get hot and I nodded.
"You look exhausted, did you sleep?" He asked.
"Not a lot, I just couldn't sleep." I lied.
He got up and pulled me into a hug.
I hesitated but hugged him back.
It felt really nice I didn't want to let go and when he tried to let go I held him tighter.
"You should sleep, Vivian." Alonzo told me.
I nodded and let go. I got in my bed and lay down.
"Can you stay for a bit?" I pleaded.
He stared into my eyes for a few seconds before nodding.
I smiled and patted the spot on my bed beside me.
"I'm not a cat." He chuckled while getting into the bed.
"I know." I laughed.
He lay down beside me on his back and stared at my ceiling.
I wanted to get closer to him but I got too scared to do so.
After a few seconds he spoke.
"Do you want to move closer to me?" He asked.
"Uh.. Yeah, kind of." I mumbled.
He smiled and moved his arm around me pulling me closer.
I smiled and closed my eyes so I could sleep.

I woke up in the same position and yawned.
Once I got up I realized nobody even tried to wake me up, which is weird because Joe would always be screaming at me to get up.
I looked at the time and it was 2.
I got up and went downstairs.
When I went downstairs it was quiet.
Now I'm really confused.
I went upstairs and checked the house.
Once I got to my moms room I hesitated, what if they're in there sleeping. Or what if they are doing something I don't want to see.
I prepared myself and opened the door.
Once I did an awful smell hit my nose.
I put my hand over my mouth and walked downstairs. I didn't see anything but the smell was so strong. I walked into the kitchen as it got stronger.
It made me want to almost throw up.
I walked around opening everything.
I got to the pantry and opened it, when I did I fell to the floor.
I hit my head and cursed in pain.
I felt a sudden heavy weight on me.
I looked on me and screamed.
"WHAT THE FUCK!?!" I yelled louder than I thought I could.
Joe was on me, only he was horribly murdered..
One of his eyes had popped out of their socket and the other one had seemed to be cut out, the first eye hanging from the socket, dried blood seeming from the place, his mouth was cut wide open, I examined his body and it looked like he had been hit in the head with something because I'd seen blood in his hair and his head had been caved into his skull, then I realized his left arm had been cut off.
I screamed even louder and pushed him off me and tried to get away, I looked at him more and all of his fingers had been cut off of his hand and it looked like whoever had done this had cut off bits of his skin.
I put my hand over my mouth as I gaped at the body in horror.
I was frozen with fear and confusion. I got up and ran to my phone.
I shook heavily as I dialed 911.
I started breathing heavily, becoming paranoid.
What if the killer is here with me.
I don't want to die.
I looked around, breathing heavier.
I didn't notice the person on the phone calling for me.
"Is this a prank call. I will hang up if no one responds." The voice said.
"N-No please, I need help." I shakily pleaded.
"Ok, what's wrong." The operator asked me.
"I-I just woke up a-and went downstairs a-and my moms boy-boyfriend is.." I couldn't speak I just cried and tried finding air as I could hardly breathe.
"Ma'am, it's okay, take a deep breath in.." I followed, breathing in.
"Now let it out." I exhaled.
"He's dead. He's been murdered, I don't know what happened, I was just a-asleep I didn't even hear anything. Please help me" I begged the operator on the other line.
"What's your address?" She asked me.
I gave her my address and she told me they'd be here in 10 minutes and to stay calm.
"Okay.." I whispered.
After ten minutes I heard sirens.
I got out of the closet and called Alonzo.
He picked up after 2 rings.
Alonzo. What are you doing.
I'm just at home, why?
Can you come to my house, please. I need someone.
Sure, I'll be over soon.
Thank you.
You're welcome, vivian.
I ended the call and walked downstairs as I heard a knock.
I opened the door and in the view were two male officers.
"We got a call about a murder here?" The first officer said.
"Yes, please, come in." I opened the door.
The officers looked at the body and stopped completely.
"Holy shit." The second one mumbled.
"Where have you been since he's been murdered?" The first one asked as the second one examined the body.
"Um, well, Joe is really.. He's a bad person. Yesterday he'd.. raped me and hurt me. And he went to sleep but when I woke up I hadn't heard from him, my friend came over and I went to sleep then I woke up and found the body, that's when I called you." I explained.
"I'm sorry that happened, miss. Who's this friend?" He asked me.
Before I could respond I heard a voice.
"I'm here." Alonzo arrived.
"Him, he's the friend." I informed the officer.
"What's happening?" Alonzo looked around in confusion.
The officer stepped up and shook his hand.
"Hello, I'm officer Howard. You were with this girl yesterday, did you see her father anywhere?" He stared at Alonzo.
"Well after Vivian fell asleep I left as I did not want to disturb her, however I didn't see her dad at all when I left." Alonzo informed Howard.
"Thank you, can you guys sit down while we investigate this?" Howard asked.
We both nodded and sat down on the couch.
I sat down staring at the floor while shaking my leg.
"Can you explain what happened?" Alonzo asked me calmly.
I hesitated but explained everything that happened.
"Vivian, I'm so sorry." He said.
"Can I hug you?" I asked while finally looking up from the floor.
He smiled and nodded.
He opened his arms and pulled me in.
I wrapped my arms around him tightly and held onto him.
"Thank you for being here." I mumbled while holding onto him.
"Of course." He smiled.
"Miss, could you follow me." The officer asked.
I nodded and got up, following him.
"Are you familiar with spider bites?" He asked.
"Uh, I mean I can tell if it was an actual spider or not, a lot of marks look close to spider bites but they're not from spiders." I answered.
"Can you look at this mark we found on his neck." He asked.
I nodded and walked over to Joe's limp body.
I knelt down and looked at his neck.
There had been a mark that looked identical to a spider bite but it wasn't.
"That's not a spider bite.. I don't know what it is actually, I've never seen it before." I informed him
"Okay, thanks." He thanked me.
I nodded and got up.
"We're going to investigate around the house, is that okay?" He asked me.
I nodded and went back into the living room with Alonzo.
I sat beside him and sighed.
"This is all so much. I hadn't expected any of this today." I muttered.
"I wouldn't either, it's all so random." Alonzo said.
"I know right!" I leaned back onto the couch.
I looked at Alonzo and he looked at me too.
We didn't say anything we just looked at each other, I felt my heart beating faster and faster inside of my chest.
Looking into this man's eyes is like watching a bunch of fireworks for the first time, you get to see all of the pretty colors exploding and it's just amazing, except every time you look into them it's like you're seeing them for the first time every time, his eyes are so unique, unlike any I've seen before.
Alonzo's eyes shifted down to my lips then back up to my eyes.
I wanted to kiss him but wasn't sure if it was appropriate at this time so I didn't kiss him. instead, I looked away.
After about 15 minutes the officers came into the room.
"We didn't find anything but we're going to take his body and search it more for those bite marks and figure out what they are. You have a good day you two." The officer informed.
They both left taking the body.
I sprayed some air freshener to make it smell nice for a bit.
I went back into the living room and sat back down beside Alonzo.
It was kind of awkward now, what do people do after they just found a murder in their own home?
"Do you want a drink, Alonzo?" I asked, breaking the silence.
"Sure, thanks." He thanked.
I walked into the kitchen searching the fridge. I grabbed a cold water and shut the fridge, when I turned around I jumped.
Alonzo stood in front of me.
"You scared me so badly.." I breathed
"Sorry." Alonzo mumbled.
We stared at each other for a minute before Alonzo spoke.
"Can I.. do something?" He whispered, looking down at my lips then back at my eyes.
I slowly nodded and he slowly got closer to me.
His hands found their way to my waist as he got closer.
He got extremely close to the point there was little to no space between us.
He stared at me for a moment before leaning in.
I felt his hot breath against my lips as he leaned in to kiss me.
He pressed his lips against mine, his lips were so soft.
I closed my eyes and kissed him back.
Alonzo pulled away for a quick second and then kissed me again.
For a second I'd completely lost every thought I was thinking.
I could hear my heart beating faster than ever.
Suddenly every thought came back to me.
I pulled away and put my hands on his chest.
"Alonzo.. this isn't appropriate. As much as I want to kiss you, I can't." I whispered.
He stayed silent for a minute before taking a step back.
"I'm sorry. You're right this isn't appropriate." He said.
The silence got extremely uncomfortable.
"Do you want to do something else instead? Play a game, sleep?" Alonzo asked.
I shook my head.
"Can you just.. go, I want to be alone." I asked.
"Okay, text me if you need anything. Bye, Vivian." Alonzo waved and left.
I sighed and went into my room. I sat on my bed and thought a bit.
I do like him but.. I don't want to be in love with anyone right now, not after last time.
I realized I haven't seen my mom at all.
I grabbed my phone and called her.
She Picked up after 5 rings
Mom
What.
So um, Joe is.. dead. I'm not sure what you want to do now.
He's... DEAD??! HE'S FUCKING DEAD?!
Um yeah. Police investigated, but didn't find anything.
She hung up without saying anything.
I couldn't tell if she was upset or not.
I sighed and lay in bed.
I thought about today, Joe being murdered, me and Alonzo kissing.
If today is like this then how would tomorrow be?
