Imperfectly Perfect

chapter one

-It was dark, he smiled at me grinning, like I had done exactly what he was hoping I'd do. I tried to run and only to turn to find myself trapped from within his barrier, I went to turn fast for I knew what was going to happen next as I still tried to catch my breath from running, but I was frozen in my tracks unable to move I felt my shoulder burning, with his hand squeezing my wrist and holding me from behind his other hand at my neck, he held something sharp and cold to my neck, as his hot breath was breathing on my neck he whispered something in my ear but I blocked out so I couldn't hear it... I felt the sharp pain of something cold being dug into the front of my wrist and while my neck went cold, my face went numb with horror. I couldn't move and felt pain all over...He whispered again up close in my ear, as I fell to the floor, he dropped me unable to move doing exactly as he wanted, I notice he never had sharp objects he dug his nails into my skin, he had blood all over his hands and splatters of blood on his face but he smiled happily, I watched him get down and close again while my shoulder burned i was unable to move he said something again.
"this is what you get for getting in my way....I thought I told you... You not even close to one of us you want me to show you? It wont hurt..." he laughed.

Even though he spoke I couldn't hear a thing but just that, his hands gripped my shoulder as he tried to scratch at the burn only to cause more pain, server pain, He looked at me smiled again as his hands followed down my face in comfort and moved my hair from my face later did I know he gripped my neck and squeezed hard trying to prevent me from breathing, I just watched him until I couldn't see him again...-

I woke up in a rush and held my face after looking in my hands if any of it had been real... I could breath, I was fine and not scratched but my shoulder did burn, I held myself as a small grin appeared, I cried, I couldn't lie to myself that the dream wasn't scary, it was... The night was restless as I couldn't get any sleep again. Nothing much on my mind but alot happened the night before and the nightmares never helped either. I was begining to feel so warm. Having to get ready for school, I jump out of bed to check my clothes from the dryer to see if any of my clothes were dry, and hurriedly got in the shower. I was running out of time and couldn't afford to be late and hear it from my homeroom teacher Mr. Lee.
"Maybe I can catch some sleep in school..."
Without having to wake my dad I hurriedly down the hall and to the kitchen to grab a gronola bar, a apple, banna, and decided to make myself a little bit of my dad's coffee just so I wouldn't have to fall asleep. Then snuck back to my room and applied my make up while eatting the gronola bar, I then realized running short on time, I bring my brown curly frizzy hair to my left side braided three parts and curled the bottom to put together a fast crazy but it works type of hairstyle. Besides I wasn't aiming for the most beautiful hair and outfit in the morning pageant, I dressed comfortably. I ate my banana while I tossed my apple in my bookbag grabbed my coffee off the counter and headed down to the bus stop at the end of the street. The makeup had me feeling more tired now then I was this morning and I knew that today was going to be a long day I grabbed my headphones and listened to my music which wasn't much because it was piano music. I just happened to like the soft high and deep pitches the piano can make to put a song together I at least found it interesting. The bus arrived with loud and silent people, the bus driver didnt look in the best shape this morning either but he had his daily morning coffee as well as he was chugging it down. Its a good thing I happen to be the last one on the bus in the morning and afternoon so his coffee only has til we get to the school until if he wanted to sleep in his own car, that is if he was that tired. I sat a few seats from the front which happened to be empty and took a few sips of the coffee I had brought with me this morning to keep me from falling asleep, as I watched out the window until we arrived at the school.

I walked into my first class of the day, everyone seemed not as awake as they normal would be but maybe because it was monday and the begining of the week. I headed towards my seat which happened to be in the middle of the classroom but more so in the back. My homeroom tracher's class Mr. Lee seemed more ready for the day then the students. "Good afternoon students, I hope you had a good rest and pull out your books to chapter 3 where we all left off."
