Demons

The Voice

I was two when it started.

My best friend Riley invited me to a princess themed birthday party. I hid in the kitchen, kinda nervous because I didn't know anyone. I was really hungry, but I knew I shouldn't eat anything until the cake was being served. That's when I heard something scary, a whisper coming from everywhere at once. I looked around the small room, but didn't see anyone.

Lexi.......

I heard it again, louder. I got really scared and started to glance around the room again.

Lexi........

I put my hands over my head. Where was the voice coming from?

I'm your friend. Only you can hear me.

I was curious about the voice, it didn't seem as scary anymore.

Lexi, I heard Riley's mother tell another child he could have cake before they got it out. You are very hungry- have a piece.

The worst part was I believed it. I took a look at the pan on the counter. mmm......

Riley wants you to throw the cake. Make a mess.

I did what the voice told me to do. I shoved my hand into the soft, spongey vanilla cake and grabbed a handful. I chucked it at the wall and watched as it slid down until it touched the floor. I giggled.

See? That was fun wasn't it?

The voice was right. It was fun. I started throwing more globs of cake on the walls, licking the creamy icing off my fingers afterward. When the room was a mess, I nodded, satisfied. "What now?" I asked aloud.

Have a food fight.

I waited, not sure what it meant. And then Riley's mom walked in, and stared at me in shock. And the voice threw a chunk of cake at her head.
She called my parents and sent me home. All anyone did for the next day was ask "Why?" And all I did was answer, "It told me to."

After that the voice came regularly, and I learned to keep my mouth shut. It wasn't normal to have a voice in your head that controls you, so each time it did something bad, I made an excuse like I didn't know or It wasn't me! My parents sent me to the doctors a lot after I did something odd, like they were checking to make sure my brain didn't explode.

High school is a living nightmare.

And so am I...........
