Shark Teeth (Jean Hobbs)

Chapter 10

Dean's POV

Alone.

It's dark and I'm alone.

My worst nightmare.

I don't remember much of what happened, all I can remember is the blood draining out of my veins and onto the bathroom tiles. This is all James' fault. The way he treats me. The way he acts like he's sorry after every single time. I hate him. But I love him at the same time.

I look around.

It's still dark. But out of the corner of my eye I see a tiny white dot. I take a step towards it. It gets bigger. I take yet another step, it gets even bigger. I suddenly begin sprinting towards it until suddenly the entire room turns white. I turn around to see Jack stood behind me. I run towards him and fling my arms around his neck. He stays completely still.

"I'm sorry Jack... I'm so so sorry."

He says nothing. He suddenly grabs my arm and twists it so that my wrist is exposed. I look to see there are no cuts or scars. I glance up to see that it's no longer Jack holding my arm, it's James. I try to pull my arm free from his grasp but I can't escape. He raises his free hand and cups one side of my face. He slowly begins running his finger along my jaw, the gentleness of his finger suddenly replaced by a sharp stinging pain. I touch my face with my free hand. Blood. He pulls his hand away from my face. I can clearly see the blade in his hand. He slowly brings his hand to my exposed wrist. I frantically try to pull away from him. He places it against the skin and presses it down, hard. He drags it along my arm. I scream but my voice makes no sound. Blood begins pouring onto the pristine, white floor.

He places the blade against my wrist again to make another cut. As he begins to drag it down, he suddenly stops and releases his grip. He slumps to the ground, behind him, I see Daniel holding a large knife, now covered in James' blood. He drops it suddenly and and begins sprinting away.

I suddenly find myself in a small room with four doors. One blue, one purple, one red and one green. I go through the blue one first. Inside, I'm greeted by James, tied to a chair and gagged. Jack is standing beside him, grinning.

"You can finally get your revenge..." He smiled, handing me a small knife. I take it and approach James, I can see the panic in his eyes. I hold the blade to his arm, cutting him in a similar way he had cut me earlier. After I finish carving patterns into his arms I look up, it's no longer James tied to the chair, it's Daniel. A mixture of sadness and betrayal on his face.

"Daniel! I'm sorry!"

The blood suddenly begins pouring out of his arms, onto the floor.

I cut the ropes binding his hands behind his back. He slumps forward, unconscious.

I'm suddenly back in the room of doors. The blue door now gone. I cautiously walk through the green door. Inside, is Jack, sat on a bed.

"There you are! I've been waiting for you for ages!"

He walks over to me and kisses me, hard. I push him away. He looks at me, confused.

"What's wrong?"

I look behind me to see that the door was gone. He kisses me again, this time I don't stop him. He pulls away from the kiss and rests his forehead against mine.

"I love you Dean."

"I love you too Jack." I smile.

He smiles and grabs my hand, walking me over to the bed and pushing me down onto it. He climbs on top of me and kisses me again. He pins my arms above my head. I close my eyes and kiss him again. He begins unbuttoning my shirt. I open my eyes to see James, not Jack. I scream and push him off me. I sprint over to the window and shove it open, I jump out, not even looking to see how high it is.

I'm back in the door room. This time, I walk through the red door. It instantly slams shut behind me as I enter. In this room, Daniel and Jack are both standing with James inbetween them. In his hand is a gun. He smirks.

"Pick one. Daniel or Jack?"

"No! I can't!"

"Do it!"

I lunge towards him, knocking the gun out of his hand. He laughs and pulls a knife out of his pocket. He stands behind Daniel and cuts his throat before doing the same to Jack, I try to move, but I can't, he laughs before throwing the knife at me, hitting me directly in the chest and causing me to fall to the ground.

I find myself in the room of doors. One more left. The purple door. I take a deep breath before walking in. I'm instantly thrown to the ground onto my back. James is sat on top of me. He punches me straight in the face, I close my eyes, bracing myself for the other punches that are about to come.

"James! Stop!"

He didn't.

My hands shoot up to try and protect myself. The punches suddenly stop. I open my eyes to see that I'm back in the kitchen with Daniel and Jack, Jack is sat on top of me, egg and flour all over his face. I look to see James stood behind him, the gun right against the back of Jack's head.

"James! N-"

The gunshot rang through the air, Jack slumped sideways and landed on the kitchen tiles next to me. I saw Daniel try to sprint out of the room but James shot him just before he could escape.

I was suddenly in the dark again. James was stood right in front of me. All of a sudden, he disappeared. I was alone in the dark again. But this time, I wasn't scared. I felt... Calm?

And then I woke up to see Jack sat next to me, holding my hand. I smiled before remembering everything that had happened earlier that day.

But there was one thing still bothering me.

Why am I still alive?
