Splatter the Red Paint

Please Stay In My Past

I woke up to nocking at my door, but I ignored it like usual.

"Honey, I hear you've been sick lately. Can I come in and see how your feeling?" This surprised me since my mom was finally home. I turned around as much as I could and josh was no longer there.

A frown crossed my face, I turned back around and laid back onto my pillow. Closing my eyes, another knock at my door occurred. I opened my eyes to see a little note on my side table.

I picked it up, and on the front it said "Lexi"

I opened it up, and it read :

"I hope you had a good sleep, and I'm sorry I couldn't stay.

I had to go to school, but I will see you after school.

I have something to ask you,

I hope you feel better,

Josh"

This began to warm my heart, when the knocking at my door threw me out of my thoughts

"YES! Sorry, hold on" I moved my sore body, and got up. I limped my way to the door and unlocked it to see my mom not in her normal getup. She was actually in pyjamas and her hair was down and slightly messy.

" oh honey, you look pale. Have you been eating? Let me feel your forehead" this gave me a bit of a shock seeing her actually being a mother.

She put her hand on my head and kept it there for a bit, " your a bit warm, but I'll go make you some soup Okay? Oh! And there's someone here for you" a smile crossed her face.

My face must of grew into a bit of a smile too because hers got bigger, "do you want me to bring him up?"

Umm, when did she ever let a guy she didn't know come upstairs? What ever, josh was here and that's all that mattered, it confused me a bit seeing that it was 1 and school wasn't done till about 2.

I didn't care, I started to get a bit excited. "Okay well then bring him up" I walked back to my bed,

"Okay, I'll send him up" the smile still stayed on her face. She closed my door and I could hear her walking down the stairs.

I just sat on my bed waiting.

There was a knock at my door 2 minutes later.

"Come in" I watched the door open up slowly.

My smile grew with the tension of seeing the door open oddly. But then I saw who it was. And my smile disappeared instantly, and turned my face terrified.

"Hi lexis"

"What do you want Matt?" I looked at him, still having his jet black hair which was definitely dyed, his American eagle sweater, and his normal dark blue jeans. His hair still was spiked in the front, and still had his scar across his right eye when I cut him with his own knife.

"What? Not happy to see your baby daddy?"

I kept silent. My heart began to race hearing him.

"Where is the little tyke? Hmm? Where is he" he started to walk closer to my bed, closing the door behind him making it clear he didn't want people to hear him.

"She. And she's no longer here. She's somewhere safe where your never going to get her"

"That's just too bad then, I guess she won't see what I'm gonna do to her little mommy"

He started walking closer and closer to me, and I tried as hard as could to move, even through the pain that was radiating off the lower half of me.

He was at the side of my bed and was about to do something when my door knocked.

The door opened to my mom holding my soup, " here you go dear. Well I hope you had a good chat, now it's time for you to go Matt, you can come and see her later" she gave him a smile

"Okay, will do. Thank you for letting me visit. Bye lexis." And he was gone from my room.

"i made you pea soup, it was all I could find downstairs in the storage room" I nodded slowly.

"Umm.. Can you not let him in next time?"

She laughed loudly " oh dear, of course not, he's your boyfriend for heavens sake. He has to see you once in a while, you don't want to be a hermit crab now do you?"

She gave me a smile and was about to leave, "umm.. Hey.. Why are you here?" I asked

She turned around and began to face me "some stuff has happened, and so I took a week off. But I will be back to work in no time." Her smile was no longer on her face, but her eyes grew vacant and the smile turned to a bit of a frown.

"Okay." I nodded, them began eating my soup.
