Chapter 5: Already?

It was evening the next day, and you sat on the mossy bank of a river in the forest. You had went to see your parents earlier in the day during visiting hours. It was emotionally draining, so you went to the riverbank to cleans your mind. The sun was just starting to set, and it caused the forest to glow an orange/pink color. There was a gentle breeze that, paired with the coolness of the rushing water on your feet, counteracted the intense warmth of the day.

Today was the first day of summer vacation, and, despite the terrible events of yesterday, the day didn't end up being too bad.You had promised yourself that you would not cry in front of your mom and dad, they needed to see you be strong. You spoke with them for about an hour between the two of them while they were conscious. They were still in a bit of pain, and the doctor had given them a strong sedative, so they were both kind of out of it the whole visit.

Your mother's sister came up from down state to see your parents. She was the only other family you had, even so, your mother hadn't gotten along with her since they were children. Because of this, you didn't see much of your aunt, and the only traits you remembered about her were that she allowed you to do basically anything you wanted to do, and that she always had a drink in her hand. You didn't really know how to react when she arrived at the hospital and told you that she was going to stay at your house for a while, "Just until they're better." She took you out for ice cream after you helped her unpack her belongings in the guest room, so you figured she couldn't really be that bad.

She didn't seem to care when I left the house this afternoon. Mom would usually ask where I'm going at least, or if I had my phone on me. You thought about your new guardian, and the future of your family, while shin deep in the river.

Everything is going to be so weird from now on.

"More than you know, Sunflower," A disembodied voice interjected. The voice caused you to jump. You lost your balance, and fell face first into the shallow river.

The dream demon formed molecule by molecule just above the river, as you choked on and coughed up water. He laughed that demented laugh, eye clenched shut and hands on his front.

"Jeez, kid, you sure do scare easily!"

You crawled back onto the bank as he continued snickering. Your clothes were dripping wet. You had decided to wear your favourite shirt to look nice for your parents today.

I hope this shirt isn't ruined. What does he want? Your mind growled.

"I couldn't help, but overhear-well more like oversee-You get it because eye? Ha! Anyway, I couldn't help, but see you sitting here alone thinking about your drunk aunt who doesn't really seem to care about you."

He was watching me that whole time, what a creep! Your clothes were suctioned to your body, ugh I really hope this doesn't get stretched out.

"Yeah, I've been following you since last night. I need to make sure I was right to choose you to help me," he explained plainly, crossing his arms.

"Wh-what! You've been FOLLOWING me?!" I got naked more than once, your mind exclaimed as you instinctively covered your chest.

"HA! Don't worry about that, dollface, I don't find you meat sacks attractive. Especially underdeveloped eleven year olds, but you aaaunt would be something I would sink my teeth into," he mimed biting the air. "If I had teeth that is," he winked. "She's hot by pathetic human standards. Your mother certainly is jealous of her for being the hotter sister."
