One Week Later...

A week past since I had been to my 'place'. But that day I was going back to see what would happen. I knew it was super reckless but my curiosity was getting the best of me. I grabbed my messenger bag consisting of my notebook, pencil, phone, and a knife just in case. I ran out the door then my dad stopped me by talking. "Where do you think you're going young lady?" He questioned as I placed my hand on the silver doorknob.

"Just out to my 'place' dad." I said and chuckled at his protective instincts.

"There have been reports of murder near this area Violet, no going out without me." He instructed.

"Dad please!" I pleaded and knotted my hands together.

"Violet..." He started and wandered his eyes off to the window "Ten minutes, I will call you when you need to come home."

"Thanks dad, love you." I exclaimed while running out the door. I ran into the woods to my 'place' turning on lanterns. I then turned to my left to see a man standing there with smoke coming off of his cigarette. I winced and put my hand in my bag holding my knife approaching him.

"It's me princess." he slightly laughed coming out of the dark. I then realized it was the man who helped me yesterday.

"W-what are you doing here?" I croaked then cringed at my words.

"I knew you'd be back soon." he chuckled.

"Why do you care so much about me."

"Princess has questions hm? Okay, well I thought I could, you know help you not get killed but if you want me to I can go back home..."

"No I mean just why waste your time on me?"

"I can't answer everything princess."

My phone then started buzzing, I picked it up to see my dad's caller ID. "Hey dad." I said stepping away from the mystery man.

"Hey sweetie are you okay?"

"Yes dad just drawing." I lied.

"Okay sweetie see you in a few minutes, love you."

"Love you too dad." I replied hanging up. I looked back at the man to see him standing there looking around.

"Hey I gotta go but before I leave can I know one thing."

"I guess..."

"What is your name?"

"Gerard, yours?"

"Violet."

"Well Violet, I bid you farewell and see you...soon." He smirked walking off. I smiled weakly and scurried out of the woods to my house
