Amnesia

Chapter 2: Run. Stay?

Rayn stood there, helpless. "Knox! You're joking right!? We aren't bringing this bitch to our camp site!" The guy, Hunter, screamed. "Don't. Call. Her. A bitch." Knox said, in a serious tone which almost scared Rayn. Knox turned to her and looked at her. "Do you wanna come with us?" She looked at him dazed, like she was just hit with a brick. "I'll tell you where to go, you can drive us." He said, like he was hoping she would say yes. Maybe this is a good thing..I guess so, what could go wrong..? "Okay..." She said uneasily.

All the guys hopped in her car, Knox sat in front with her. He started going through the glove box, looking around. Rayn's grip on the steering wheel tighten as he found a picture. "Who's this?" He asked. She looked over and at the picture. Vance... "That's Vance.." She said, fighting the tears back. "What happened?" Oh great, now you have to tell him. "He got bit, and died in my arms..." She said, that was it. She lost it. She started crying. "I'm sorry.." Knox said "I didn't know he was...your boy friend.." She cried even harder, her knuckles turned white from holding onto the steering wheel so tightly. Knox looked out his window and muttered to himself. Vance...I need you.

She turned onto this dirt road which lead to a small country house. When they got there, they all went inside leaving her in the car. She opened the glove box and took out a razor. She just stared at it, like it was her last chance of getting better. She held it to her arm. But you promised, you would stop for him. For Vance. She threw the razor down on the floor of the car and covered her face with her hands. Someone knocked on her window and she looked over at Hunter, the guy who held a gun to her back. She opened her door slowly. "Get inside already bitch." He said and walked back towards the house. She got out of her car and grabbed two bags and headed inside.

"I heard you want to end your life...just stay alive...maybe we'll turn it around..it's never to late..it's never to late.." She sung to herself as she walked towards the door of the house. She entered the door and walked to the kitchen where everyone was. Knox was cooking and the guys where at the table talking. "Just take your bags upstairs and find an empty room." One of the guys said, she started to walk up stairs when he called to her. "Also, I'm Conrad." She just nodded and continued to walk upstairs. She wandered down the hallway until she found an empty room. The walls where a cream color and there was a black dresser. The were no curtains and no bed spread. "Well, time for some decorating." She said and put her hands on her hips while she looked around the room. She opened the first bag, which had stuff for sleeping. She took out a blanket and a throw pillow, with some tarps. She used the tarps for curtains and made her bed. She opened the second bag, which had some clothes and a brush, tooth brush, deodorant and some other things. She started to put away everything when someone knocked on the frame of her door. "Dinners ready." Said Conrad. "Alright, be down soon." She said and continued to put her belongings away. At the bottom of her bag was a picture of Vance and her kissing. She held it close to her heart. "I miss you..." She whispered to herself. She walked downstairs slowly and to the kitchen where everyone was eating. She looked at the food on the kitchen counter and then looked down at herself. She sat down next to Knox. "Aren't you gonna eat anything?" He asked her. "No, not hungry.." She said and looked down at her hands.

"I'll do dishes." She said and Knox just nodded and everyone left the kitchen. She stood there alone and washed the dishes while she remembered when she would wash dishes at Vance's house. He would stand behind her and wrap his arms around her waist. She let one tear roll down her cheek and smiled a little at the memory. She finished putting dishes away and walked upstairs to her room. She closed her door and sunk down to floor, pulling her knees up to her chest.

*flash back*

"I love you, forever and always." His breathing slowly stopped and he died in her arms....

*end of flash back*

"Fuck life...why should I live without you! I'm trying so hard to live without you! I can't I can't I can't! I can't do this anymore!!" She screamed at herself, not caring who heard her.
