{ Chapter 5 }

"Holy shit Casey what the fuck!" She loudly whispered.

I gaze in the mirror trying to figure out what just happened. More hickies had appeared from the far end of my jawline all the way down to the top part of my breast. As I leaned closer to the mirror I quickly became lightheaded and almost fell. Aspyn reacted quickly and caught me before I hit the floor.

I wake up with another headache and see my mom sitting in a chair next to me. My vision is still hazy but I try to make out where I was. There was a faint noise coming from the corner of the room, and as I turned my head to see what it was I stopped midway due to the throbbing headache and just closed my eyes back closed.

"Oh my Casey, are you alright?" I see my mom rush towards me. I reopen my eyes to look up at her. I try and sit myself up to get comfortable position, she helps me as I do so. "Aspyn called an ambulance as soon as you feel and once you got here they called me an-"

"Thanks mom for the concern." I chuckled while cutting her off. I look around the room and I found myself just as she explained. In a hospital. I look back up at my mom and see here on her phone, I see eye bags that are drooping so low I didn't even know was possible. Lately she's been not feeling so well and hasn't been getting much sleep, I feel bad for the poor woman doesn't help that she's always around trying to help me out of the shit I cause.

She had me when she was 18 and her life didn't put her on those tv shows that made her look like a failed person. She was lucky her parents helped her through the whole journey. Of course mom felt guilty so she continued her education got herself a degree and has a stable job. Gram and gramps were obviously proud of her and so was I. There was supposed to be another member of the small family we were but unfortunately she had a miscarriage but she got through it being the string person she was. I was thankful for dad too but he's been gone for too long. At first it bothered me but after I learned about what he really does, which was absolutely nothing, I didn't mind, kinda made me glad that he's occupied but not at the same time cause he takes me to these places that are just breathtaking.

Mom and I pull up to our driveway and after she parked I head straight up to my room. Before I enter my room I fix the little sign at my door that says Slow Children At Play , I smile as I fix it remembering that my dad had got it for me when I was 14 (now 18). He told me he got it when he was in LA and the police almost caught him just as he was driving away with the sign, I chuckled.

When I enter my room I took out a pair of spandex and my Lana tour t shirt and head straight for the bathroom. Once I was in the shower thoughts had flooded through my brain over what happened over the past few days. I still wasn't sure how I got the hickies and who was giving them to me and at this point I am pissed off, and I still need to check up on Clifford to see what business he has here. After Aspyn told me he'll stop bothering us I didn't believe her fully since there was probably a catch. I turned the shower knob and checked my neck in the mirror before I got out. The bruises were still there but they weren't as visible as before, I was relieved my mom didn't see any of it cause I don't know how I would explain this to her.

Oh yea mom btw forgot to mention I've got some little creep biting the shit out of my neck no big deal.

I get dressed and head downstairs to find some food, I find myself alone not surprisingly. I dial up a friend to pass up the time since I'm probably not going to be doing anything productive soon. I scroll through my contacts and decided to call Jess hopefully not bothering her from whatever she was doing.

C: Yo Jess what's up

J: Hey Cass nothing much just chillin

C:Cool cool, wanna hang out later or something?

J: Yea sure. You don't have school today?

C: Nah, passed out earlier so I was at the hospital. Mom checked me out not that long ago so I'm just stuck here alone again

J: Oh ok I'll come by and pick you up around 3

I look up at the time on the microwave, it read 2:13.

C: Kay see you soon

I hang up and continue preparing a hot pocket and turn on the tv to waste the time.
