A Dance With The Devil (Ticci Toby X Reader)

Chapter 6

I stayed out of school for the next week, and had also gotten visits from Toby every night of the week. Every night I'd make him a plate of waffles and leave it on the desk. It was kind of like leaving cookies and milk for Santa Claus except instead of cookies and milk it was waffles and instead of Santa it was a cereal killer and the only gift I got was the gift of fear. The first and last time I had ever been near him was the day of Zaharas funeral. Every night was the same,he would come in and eat his waffles but his behavior always differed each night.

Some nights he would be very calm, I would even fall asleep and he would sit at the desk and watch me. Other nights he would be more aggressive, he was ticking a whole lot more,pace up and down and mumbled to himself he would have a look of complete rage on his face. On these nights I would pretend to sleep, I was to scared that he was going to just snap and kill me.

Last night was one of the worst of his mood swings, he was violently twitching and ticking. He would mumble things to himself then walk over to me, I would lay as still as possible with the sheets over my head. He would bend down and then whisper "No!no!no!" Then pace up and down again. This went on for an hour or two until I heard a crash.

I jumped up and off the bed,I looked to see the source of the noise. He had thrown my chair across the room and now it layed on the far side. I backed into a corner looking at Toby who was watching my movement until my back hit the wall then he just stared. After a good five minutes he bolted out the window, I sighed in relief grabbing the fabric of my onesy.

Tonight I did the same thing I always did, make Toby his waffles,leave then on the desk and sit on or in my bed doing something to keep myself busy. Tonight I decided to play Sims 3 seeing as I'd changed my pajamas for the first time in the week,why not do something new. I placed Tobys waffles down and grabbed my laptop,I rummaged in my desk draws for my game CD.

When I'd found it I sat down on my bed and opened the laptop waiting for it to start up. As my computer did so Toby appeared, he was calm today. I didn't pay much attention to him today, I just learned to leave him be plus it had been so long since I'd played my game id even forgotten what I was doing in the game.

To my surprise Toby had come and sat right beside me with his plate of waffles. I placed the CD into the computer "What a-are you d-do-oing" he asked looking at the laptop screen. "Just going to play some sims" I replied, he grabbed the laptop from me before I could load the game and he went into my photo's instead. Oh god I had such awful pictures on there.

"What are you doing dude don't look there!" I instructed trying to retrieve my laptop. Toby took one of his hatchets from his belt and held it at my neck, I lifted my hands in the air and backed off onto the other side of the bed. He looked through the photo's for what felt like forever. He would ask me who every boy was in any picture there was a guy and I tell him it was my cousin or family friend.

But then he came across a picture of me and Ramin, i was asleep on his shoulder. Both of our hair was messy. I remembered that picture,it was new years day. We spent the night together at my house and he took a picture of us sleeping,honestly I'd even forgotten about that picture. Toby asked me about Ramin and I explained that he was my ex. Toby slammed my computer shut after I explained and threw it on the bed. "D-d-do yo-ou st-till spe-ak t-to him?" He asked in a low deep voice.

I hesitated a bit "Uhh yeah sometimes" I replied. He got up off the bed and began walking towards the window. I don't know what or why but I felt the need to know why he was acting the way he was acting. "Why are you acting like this, it doesn't matter" I said with a shaky voice.

He stopped in his tracks and slowly turned towards me, his hands curled into fists. In a blink of an eye he had run over to me and grabbed my top by the coller pulling it down a bit exposing the T shaped scar. "D-do yo-ou see this, i-it me-means you be-belong to me ph-physically,mentally a-a-and emotionally. You're MINE!" He yelled

I winced as he yelled at me,avoiding direct eye contact with him. He let go of my top and walked to the window, I sat up and watched him. Wait did that mean he branded me? Like a cow! Was I a cow to this guy? He had jumped out the window and i watched him,frowning. I got into my bed angrily, "I am not a cow" I mumbled to myself drifting off to sleep.
