One Winter Night (on Hold)

Chapter 14

Hey guys I've finally figured how to get it fixed sorry it took so long :3

Ever have that strange feeling in the pit of your stomach where it feels like someone dropped a hand grenade and everything explodes? No, well that's what it feels like right now. An explosion.

I took a deep breath and opened the door to leading me into my house; I closed the door and leaned on it just trying to take in what happened.

He's Shawn, the boy with green eyes and a dark aura around him yet he's so gentle. I think I'm going to go crazy like this.

I sighed and walked into my room seeking for a nice hot shower to drain all my thoughts away.

I got into the tub filled with relaxing hot water to calm my nerves. I stayed there closing my eyes letting the warmness envelop me.

I opened my eyes and saw a dark figure standing in the corner of my bathroom. I could feel beads of sweat forming on my forehead as I tried to push the scream down my throat. I closed my eyes again so that the person would think I didn't notice.

I stared at the figure with the corner of my eye but it just stood there still, not a single move. My breath became unstable and I could feel my heart beat increase every second.

I somehow managed to reach for the bathrobe and quickly tied it around me. I was standing in the bathtub still occupying water, my legs were shaking and it felt like death was so close, quietly slowly killing me from the inside.

I looked into the fogged mirror and saw the figure move; I flinched and now was looking directly at him. He didn't waste time and grabbed my neck pinning me against the wall.

I scratched his hands with my long fingernails gasping for air. He was wearing black head to toe but there was one thing that stood out...His joker mask.

My screams were muffled as I kicked and screamed feeling the oxygen leave from my body.

I looked over to my right and saw my razor lying on the small shelf; I could feel hot tears fall on my cheek as I tried to reach for the razor.

His grip around my neck tightened and I could feel my wind pipe crushing under his grip, I used all the power in me and kicked him hard because of which he slipped in the tub, I made a jump for the razor and jumped out of the tub but he grabbed hold of my foot and I fell flat on the ground feeling a bruise on my knee.

I used my razor and cut his bare hand; while he cursed in pain and let go of my foot I made a sprint for the stairs. I ran as fast as possible screaming for my mum and sister but no one was home. I saw him at the top of the stairs and felt as if someone froze my heart and threw a rock at it for which it shattered into a million pieces.

I made a sprint for the door as he gained up pushing me against the door, I tried to use my razor again but he threw it somewhere out of my reach.

I stepped on his toe hard and then punched his jaw with all my might I ran fast to the back door in the kitchen and ran out feeling the cold pinch my bare skin as I ran out only in my bathrobe. I ran barefoot, the snow making my feet feel like ice, tears were streaming down my face as I ran and ran until I saw my mom's car approaching me.

She parked the car in the middle of the street and ran to me hugging me in her arms as I cried my heart out.

"Honey what's wrong, what happened?" she bombarded me with questions but all I did was cry in her arms feeling the need to have her close to me.

"Mom someone tried to kill me" was all I could say before she started to cry too, she hugged me leaving kisses on my forehead as we sat in the snow at a corner of a road.
