The Disaster

Chapter 10

I went home but Marco stayed in his little layer or whatever it is. I walked in and Chris sat on the couch. I walked behind him, leaned over, and kissed his cheek. He smiled and told me to sit next to him. I sat down and he wrapped his arm around me. I leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep. When I woke up, I was on the floor and there was a blanket over me. I looked up and Chris was standing next to me.

"Hi." I said.

"Stand up." Chris said angrily.

"Um, alright." I said questioningly.

"Come with me."

Chris grabbed my arm and led me to the kitchen. He played a video on his phone. The beeping I heard was a recording. That's why Marco struggled, to make it look like I forced him to kiss me.

"Chris, it wasn't like that, I swear." I told him.

"You did kiss him though?" Chris looked hurt.

"Yes, but he forced me to do it. He wanted me to leave you and go out with him. I told him I would never leave you, so he got mad. He told me that he would never let me go if I didn't go out with him. I told him that I would kiss him if he let me go. I knew he wouldn't let me go with just a little kiss, so I told him I would kiss him long and slow. He said he would let me go if I let him use his hands wherever he put them. I promised him I would let him. He promised no one would know so that both of us could be happy. I said okay and he brought me to a weird room and he took me into a closet..." I explained.

"So, this happened and you weren't going to tell me? You were going to keep it a secret." Chris yelled.

"No. I was going to tell you as soon as I could. I'm sorry that it seemed like that. Anyways, he took me into a closet and shut the door. I backed up as far as I could, and then he pulled me towards him and we kissed for awhile. Soon, he was against the wall and then I heard a beep. Marco started to struggle and and I didn't know why. I kept kissing him because I wanted to come home. He stopped kissing me and I heard the same beep again. I didn't know he was taking a video to split us up so he can have a better chance at getting me. I'm sorry this happened. I should have just left Marco there and came home with you."

"No, I should've gone with you to talk to Marco. I had a funny feeling leaving you with him. Now, I'm never going to leave you alone. I want to be with you wherever you go, okay?"

"Okay, but the dance is tomorrow. You're 18, you can't go. You don't even go to school. How can you keep me from him. I will ask Casey and Gabe to keep you from him."

"I told Marco I would go with him to the dance."

"Then tell him after the stunt he pulled, you're not going anymore."

"I wanted to go to a dance though. I wanted to dance really close to someone, and have them whisper in my ear how pretty I looked."

"We can have our own little dance."

"Really? You would do that for me?"

"Of course babe."

"That would be nice."

Chris smiled and grabbed my hands. We went back to the living room and sat on the couch. I heard a cry and I went upstairs. I walked into Tanner's room and picked him up. I brought him back downstairs. Chris was laying on the couch, so I put Tanner on his stomach. He looked up and picked Tanner up. He sat him on his chest and played with his hands. Tanner laughed and looked at me. I picked him back up and took him back upstairs. He fell asleep pretty fast. I walked past the girls' room and heard whispers. I peeked in, but the girls were asleep. The voices kept going on though. I yelled quietly and Chris ran up the stairs. I told him to listen to the voices. They didn't make sense. The one word that was clear and repeated was 'dead' and 'murder'.
