Ignite Me

~ Chapter 2 ~

Recap~

"Listen Monica, I know how you feel about your sister, but-" Monica cut her off.

"Don't you dare call her my sister! I can't believe we share the same blood as her!" Monica yelled.

"I know you're still upset, I am too, but you can't humiliate her over and over again Monica." Mom said.

"She deserves it!" she spat. "She killed him! She killed dad!" Monica screamed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After I heard that, I couldn't hear or see anything else that they were talking about. The memories are flooding back and I want to rip my heart out of my chest.

I ran to my bathroom and shut the door. I started sobbing. I couldn't take it anymore. Breathing heavily, I felt like I was having a panic attack. I fell to the floor, trying my best to take myself out of this as I reached for the drawer. The only thing that will take me out of this is pain. I shakily reached for the blade as I started reliving that day...

Two years ago...

~~~~~~~~

I'm so dead for this. I can't believe I even agreed. I'm blaming it on peer pressure. Screw it. "Grab a can Mia. We are going to make this bastard pay for cheating on me." Lexi said.

Yep, that's right. Lexi and I were going to graffiti her ex boyfriend's house.

We already egged it. Making sure not to hit any windows. Lexi was 16 and I'm only 14, but I look up to her in a way. She also was my only friend.

Monica would kill me if she found out I did this.

Monica and I were pretty close before, but when puberty hit, she was more controlling and she was into boys and she basically shunned me when her friends were around. When it was just us, we had the best time of our lives.

I've kind of already excepted that she was embarrassed of me, but hey, it's better then nothing. The fact that I'm wilder then her factors in too. I mean, look at what I'm doing right now?

"Haha, that fuckers gonna wake up and his parents are going to kill him!" Lexi said looking at me excitedly. I laughed at her. I swear I'm older then her sometimes.

When we finished up and threw our last toilet paper roll, the lights turned on. "Oh shit." I muttered and when I looked to my left, Lexi was already running.

She hid behind a bush and signaled me to come over now. "Mia!" she whisper seethed. I shook my head and I started running, but by then, his dad came down with a shotgun and started chasing us. Talk about crazy.

We ran into the near by woods. Lexi took too many sharp corners and since it was really dark, the only thing I could see was her light blonde hair in the moonlight before she completely disappeared leaving me lost.

I knew I couldn't yell her name. I was smarter then that. I heard a gun shoot and I yelped and fell to the floor. I was scared, but not for Lexi, but for me. I didn't know this area that well and Lexi knew it like the back of her hand.

I heard someone getting closer and immediately, not thinking, I ran making a lot of noise putting the crazy lunatic with a gun after me. I made the mistake of looking behind me and my foot got caught in a bear trap. I screamed loudly at the piercing pain. I tried prying it off, but it just burned my hands.

It had to be laced with something, but what the hell could it be?! "Ha, I knew I would catch one of you. Glad I caught you though, little one. I could smell the stench of a wolf from miles away." he spat. Damn. I know I stink, but did I really stink that bad? God. I'm sorry for skipping out on one shower.
