The Beast's Wife

8 #Ilikeyou.

"Wake up honey, I made you pancakes today"
"Mmm, okay, give me a minute"
"If you're not awake in 5minutes, I will give your dad your share"
"Okay okay, am coming"
so evil.
I forced myself to wake up as I heard mum's giggles across the room, I made my way to my bathroom not even bothering checking myself in the mirror (I always look horrible in mornings) so I brushed my teethes as quick as possible not wanting from dad to steal my pancakes, I swear to god, I have the most horrible father ever, he always eats my food! I need to prank him sometime later today.
As I arrived to the kitchen area, smell of fresh delicious food greeted my  nostrils, leaving my mouth drawling, and than I saw my dad sneaking a pancake while my mom was fumbling in the fridge for probably her home made juices.
"Mom, Dad is stealing again!" The look in his face translated pure fear and I couldn't help but laugh at the scene of mom pinching my dad from his ear giving him another lesson about stealing food.
I took my usual seat In front of dad and he mouthed I hate you while I sticked my tongue to him.
"Candy darling, I invited Sarah for breakfast today and Justin's coming too" mom said while the door bell rang. She came back with the familiar faces and my smile grow bigger as I saw my best friend's and boyfriend's lovely faces.
"I missed you both!" I said to them, quickly jumping into Sarah's arms Justin joining us after, then turned me to face him and gave me a passionate long kiss that I took my time savoring it.
"Eww, disgusting!" dad yelled from behind us and we all laughed at dad's childish behavior.
Slowly we all took our places around the table and on it there were several of delicious good smelling food.
We started gossiping (yes gossiping, dad is considered a talkative woman and he even taught Justin how to gossip)
"Candy honey, what's wrong; aren't you feeling well? your face is pale" mom said concerned while I felt an immense pain on my neck, I placed my hand on the area and I felt it wet, and when I checked my hand it was all red... It was blood and the pain only grew atrociously painful each second. I groaned from displeasure and stood up crying.
Mom, dad, Sarah and Justin all looking at me with wide eyes and then, nothing. They all disappeared, the room went dark and I couldn't see.
I called for them I screamed their names one by one.
"MOM? DAD? SARAH? JUSTIN?!" But nothing, there was no response. "IS ENYONE UP THERE?!" Nothing.
"CAN ANYONE HEAR ME?!" Silence.
"Any... One?" I cried, feeling the familiar hollow taking place.
Suddenly, a noise tingled my ears, it was a bit quiet but then it became loud and it looked like it's approaching me, I got scared and decided to run, I ran from the animal noises that approached me each second, suddenly a cold grape turned me to face the scariest eyes ever, red eyes piercing mine, locking their gaze with mine, burning me and I screamed, I screamed for help but nobody heard me.
I screamed waking up from bed soaking in sweat.
He was there looking concerned as he took me in his arms, I watched him in disbelieve not able to say a word, chock and fear taking place of me, and then reality hit me and I pushed him hard enough to release myself from his arms.
"KILL ME!" I yelled at him, he said nothing, he just watched me emotionlessly.
"KILL ME ALREADY, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!" I yelled again, opening my shaking arms.
"KILL ME!" I yelled even louder, no response.
I let my hands run down my hair, pulling it while crying and panting.
"Finish me..." I whispered falling to the ground, my weak legs not been able to handle my wight anymore.
"I can't" I heard him say beside me, I looked up to see him standing on my side, he crouched to my level and let his finger wipe the tears from my cheeks, all the way looking into my eyes.
"I can't kill you" he softly and calmly said.
"Why?" I whispered.
"Because..." He whispered back, approaching his finger from his mouth, licking my tears.
"I like you"
