Have To go

Laura's POV

After Hearing That I Got Up And Ran To My Room Where Vanessa Was Still Asleep. I Kneeled Down Shaking Her Like Crazy. "Wake Up! wake Up!" I Whisper Yelled. She Groaned. "What? What?" she Asked Annoyed. "We Have To Go." I said Standing Up Opening My Closet And Frantically Searching For My Suitcase.

"What? Why?" She Asked Confused. I Finally Got To My Suitcase And Threw It On My Bed. I ran to My Dresser Pulling My Drawers Open. "Laura, Slow Down. What's Wrong?" She Asked Puzzled. "It's Not Safe." I Said Quietly Knowing that Melissa Is In The House. "Laura What The Hell Are You Talking About?" She Asked Still Laying On The Floor. I Went Over To Her. "Get Up! Vanessa, Get Up." I Ordered.

"Or What?" She Asked Testing Me. "She's Gonna Kill Us." I Snapped. her Eyes Widened And She Stood Up Walking Over To Me Putting Her Hand On My Forehead. "Are You Feeling Alright?" She Asked As If I Was Crazy.

I Swatted Her Hand Away From Me. "Vanessa I'm Serious! I Overheard Her On The Phone With Someone. She Said That She Tried Killing Us When We Were Younger And Got Thrown Into A Mental Hospital And That This Is Her Second Chance!" I Said Frantically. I Was Panicking Honestly .

"She Said She's Planning To Have Us Done With By Tomorrow." I Said Quietly. I Grabbed Stuff Out Of My Drawers And Threw It Into My Suitcase. "Laura, Thats Crazy ." She Said. "She's Crazy! If You Haven't Noticed." I Said Rolling My Eyes. Is She Really Thinking That I'm Lying? Or Hallucinating?

I Was Taking Literally Everything That I Owned, Besides Dressers And Tvs And Stuff. Clothes And Shoes And Perfumes Are Being Packed. Makeup, My Stuff. "Laura, Calm-" "Vanessa! Will You Just Pack?" I Asked Pleadingly. "She's A Little Crazy But She Wouldn't Kill Us." I Sat On My Bed And Ran My Fingers Through My Hair Rapidly.

"Okay Stop." She Said Grabbing My Hands. "You'll Drive Yourself Crazy." She Said. "I'm Your Sister, And You Trust Me Right?" I Asked. She Nodded Just As I Expected. "Then Please Just Believe Me Right Now. Vanessa She's not Safe , Mom And Dad Said So Their-" "Mom And Dad?" She Interrupted. "Laura, Do You Her Yourself Right Now? They're Gone And They're Not Coming Back." She Said Harshly.

"I Know That!" I Said Trying To Keep My Voice Down. "Then What Are You Talking About?" She Asked Stupidly. "Fine, Dont Believe Me Vanessa. I'm Leaving." I Said Throwing My Shoes In The Suitcase. "You're Leaving? Where?" She Asked. "Why Do You Care? You Believe It's So safe Here So I Doubt You're Leaving Anytime Soon. That Is Until You Realize I Was Right About Her." I Said Angrily.

"Laura I Love You! But Why Should I Believe What You're Saying Right Now? It's Crazy." "Why Would I Lie To You? We've Been Here For A While And Yesterday Wasn't The First Time She Smacked Me So Why Would I Choose To Make Something Crazy Up Now?" I Said Making Her Think About It.

She Sighed. ".. I'll Get My Suitcase." She Said Giving In. Thank God, I Would've Never Forgiven Myself If I Know That I Had Let Her Stay Here Knowing That Melissa Would Kill Her. Little Does She Know, We'll Be Gone , Gone Tonight.
