Catfish: Featuring Craig [Episode One]

FIVE POINT FIVE

TrillestxCraigx: Hey baby ;)

Craig was doing little things to antagonize me all week. I tried to ignore him, but he wouldn’t let me escape. Even when I wasn’t online, he’d stalk me with inbox messages. I tried to delete my chat accounts, but Craig always found me. He had me weak. I sent him pictures, and he could make me do anything he wanted. Anything.

TrinitiLovesCraig: Hey. . .

TrillestxCraigx: What’s up? Did you enjoy the fourth? 

Craig was acting as if everything was cool between us, when he knew well it wasn’t. He was just using another trick to get me to “love him” again. To make me think that he loves me. I’ve always wanted to connect with somebody, but not it this way. I still have feelings for Craig, and a small part of me would jump to go back to him if he’d say sorry.

TrinitiLovesCraig: Yeah . It Was Cool . 

TrillestxCragix: Dope xD

I didn’t know how to respond to Craig. Now that he was blackmailing me, I really didn’t have anything for him. I knew he would bring up the naked pictures all over again, so I needed to come up with something.

TrinitiLovesCraig: Idk What 2 Say .

TrillestxCraigx: Mhm. Well I wanna talk about us.

TrinitiLovesCraig: OK ?

TrillestxCraigx: I want you to know that I love you from the bottom of my heart. I really do. Before, I didn’t know how to feel about you. I wasn’t use to this type of connection. But you showed me that people could really fall in love on the internet. I know I’ve been a ass this whole time, but I want to apologize for that. I don’t mean it. I’ll even delete the naked pictures off of my phone, if that’s what you want. I just want it the be how it use to. Like when we first met. We were inseparable. Now, I can tell just by your chat logs that you don’t like me anymore. So, can we make a truce? I want to be the loving boyfriend again.

Craig’s paragraph really made me think. His Prodigy charm was really showing through. I was happy that he apologized, but nervous that he would just break my heart again. But, I had to give him the benefit of the doubt.

TrinitiLovesCraig: I Honestly Don’t Know What To Say , Craig . I Mean , I’m Scared You'll Screw Me Over Once More.

TrillestxCraigx: You have to trust me on this one. I’m a changed guy, I swear. Please, Triniti. You’re the only girl I love.

TrinitiLovesCraig: OK . I Forgive You . But You Have To Pinky Promise Not To Do It Again ?

TrillestxCraigx: Promise.

I was glad Craig apologized. He must have been missing the old ‘us’, and I was too. He used to be so sweet, but that’s until I sent him the pictures. I wanna trust him, but not that much anymore. If he wanted the trust, he was going to work for it. 

TrinitiLovesCraig: So , Um , What Do You Want To Talk About ?

TrillestxCraigx: Whatever you want.

“Trini-it-tay! Dinner is ready,” Serenity called from the bottom of the stairs. Since my mom has been out of town for days, and my dad was nowhere to be found, Serenity and I were responsible for our own meals, and taking care of our even younger sister, Serene. But it wasn’t anything new. This was the usual for about three times every month.

TrinitiLovesCraig: I’ll Be Right Back Babe , Dinner Time .

I ran downstairs to get my plate, and tend to Serene. She went to sleep fast, so all I had to do is give her a small plate and wrap her up on the couch and I wouldn’t have to deal with her anymore.

Serenity cooked pancakes, but I could tell they weren’t done. The white batter oozed from the sides.

“I swear, no one in this house can cook worth a damn. Where’s Serene?” I wondered, looking around the kitchen.

“She’s asleep on the couch. And ain’t nobody makin’ you eat.” I rolled my eyes hard and went it to check on Serene. She was asleep, so I had no more worries. There was food to eat, and my main problem was asleep.

I can finally talk to Craig in peace, since everything was back to normal.

“Oh yeah, and Triniti?” My sister called from the kitchen. “What?” I shouted back harshly.

“You need to watch out about this Craig guy. I saw on the news where this guy got this girl and threw her in a ditch. She was dead.” I didn’t see Serenity’s face, but I could tell she was dead serious. 

“Whatever. Craig wouldn’t do that to me.” I went back upstairs, and sat back at my computer.

TrinitiLovesCraig: I’m Back .

TrillestxCraigx: Yay

TrinitiLovesCraig: So Where Were We ?

TrillestxCraig: Finding something to talk about.

TrinitiLovesCraig: Well , What Do You Want To Talk About ?

TrillestxCraigx: Well, I’ve been thinking about something lately.

TrinitiLovesCraig: What ?

TrillestxCraigx: I really want to meet you in person.
