The day I met him (Daniel Skye Fanfic)

Chapter 9

We had 3 days off of school after the "incident". What, do they expect us to get over what happened in 3 freaking days? Some of our friends died, or were really injured. One of the teachers died saving a student. and they expect us to get over it that fast. I don't think so. I've been in bed all day, sleeping, laying in bed doing nothing, sleeping more, I've only gotten up once to go to the bathroom and get food. Aunt Hil has been gone all day with my mom and brother, they have been "killing time" as my mom calls it, she thinks I need time alone when that's not even close to what I need right now, I need someone to tell me it will be ok, that everything is going to be fine, that this is all just a dream....nightmare. but I know that's not true, and I hate it. It's been all of the news. "Middle school gets attacked" ugh. every channel I turn to they have that on. I can't even watch tv without being reminded about it, is all over instagram, snapchat, twitter, facebook, I can't go anywhere without being reminded about it. People have out up pictures and candles and flowers of all the people who have died. I CANT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT BEING REMINDED ABOUT IT. Stop thinking about this jess. stop.

I sigh....i should get up...right when I'm about to wake up I hear the door open. I walk downstairs.

"Mom? Aunt Hil?" I say. I hear a noise and run upstairs and hide in my closet.

"Jess?" I hear someone say. "Jess it's daniel" he laughs opening the closet.

"Omg dani you scared me!" I say hitting his shoulder jokingly. "How did u get into my house?"

"It was unlocked and I knocked but no one was answering and I knew you were home I wanted to make sure you were ok" he says siting down. I sit next to him. "are you ok?"

"No" I say looking down.

"You can tell me" he says.

"My life is hell. Im serious daniel. bad things follow me everywhere I go and the worst part is I can't stop it, bad things just keep happening. and I always keep my head up and pretend to be brave when I'm not. I don't know what to do Daniel and I'm really scared because I feel so alone and helpless. I feel trapped." I say softly crying.

"It's ok jess. I know it seems like you have nobody but you have your aunt, Chloe, and you have me. I'll always be here for you" he says putting his arm on my shoulder.
