Shadow (discontinued)

two.

"Mhmm Mmmm" Yaz mumbles. She's been knocked out for about a day and a half. I don't want to wake her, she's so beautiful when she sleeps. Even in the throes of pain and danger.

I didn't want to hit her but she forced me to. She shouldn't of ran. It was her fault.

"Yaz? Wake up" I say while tapping her face. She reaches consciousness then jumps when she sees me.

"Ahh! Who are you?" She questions. Aw she's so pretty when she's scared.

"My name is an article I will not disclose. You can make up something to call me but for now, I would like to tell you a few things. You are in the basement of my house. Once you show me I can trust you, you will be allowed to sleep upstairs. For now, you will sleep down here. I was being nice so I decided to buy you a bed and I'll get you a TV if you want. I know you can cook too so pretty soon you can do that for me" I chuckle nervously.

"Why me ? What did I do ?" She murmurs shakily. Why she keep asking me all these questions? I answered enough !

"Stop asking me questions. Just know I will tell you in due time. For now, don't do anything stupid. I'll come back to check on you soon. I love you Yaz" I plant a kiss on her forehead and she yanks away. Strike one.

Go upstairs. We'll torture her later.

I nod my head and go upstairs. Phew. Well that wasn't too bad. I need to get her some blankets. You think she'll like black ? Does she like pink ? Well I'll get both.

For now I need to seal the house. I already sealed the basement. While she was sleep I soundproofed it, bolted the door and windows and installed cameras so I can watch her. I'm going to treat her so good she won't be able to hate me. She'll love me till death do us part.

If you're wondering about people looking for her, that won't be a problem. I perfected her handwriting so I sent out letters to her family and close friends telling them how she will be "taking a trip abroad and she'll be gone for a a while". It was spontaneous and adventurous. Things people in their twenties do right ?

I need to go get her something to eat she hasn't eaten in two days. I know she loves Mexican food and soup. The loud music in the restaurant would bother me so I guess I'll get us some Pho. I know exactly what she likes from there so I can't go wrong. I'll get everything to seal the house, the blankets, then the food and the kit.

I walk back downstairs to tell Yazmine my plans.

"Baby I'm going to get us something to eat and the blankets. Do you like black or pink ?" I ask. She squirms and ignores me. Ignore ? Me ?

She's ignoring us. Soon she's going to want to abandon us just like Kelly and Moni. Show her who we are!

She's right. I need to teach her. She wants to ignore me ?

"You hear me talking to YOU! You like ignoring me?" I say menacingly. She continues to ignore me. I run upstairs and retrieve my baseball bat from the closet and come back downstairs.

"YAZMINE!" I shout. She slowly turns around and her eyes widen. I drag the bat on the floor and walk over to her.

"I wonder... have you ever heard the sound of bones crack? The bloodcurling scream that leaves the mouth of the victim". I close my eyes and take a deep breath. "It's really a pleasant sight. You see, your current plight is your fault. You ignored me Yazmine. You need to learn."

I lay a kiss on her forehead then raise the bat and crash it down on her right knee. She releases the most resplendent scream I've ever heard. It runs chills down my spine. She continues to cry and I grow irritated.

"SHUT UP!" I yell. Her screams immediately turn to soft, feeble whimpers and I whisper in her ear.

"I'm going to pick us up some food, house stuff, the kit and now the blanket. For the last time, which one would you prefer? Pink? or black ? "

"B-Black.Please" she whispers. I nod and kiss her forehead. "I love you Yazmine"

She nods and I make my way back up the stairs. "I'll get your crutches too babe"

I hear a faint 'ok' and I lock the basement door. Time to get the stuff.

-

I come back about an hour later. I have everything set. I need to get her clean and fed pronto. I have a confession that I'm ashamed to make. While I was getting the Pho, I made eye contact with another girl. I feel like I cheated. I should of avoided eye contact with her. I hope she doesn't hate me. No she has to hate me. I feel like absolute shit. 

I nervously walk down the stairs and the smell of blood hits me hard. I almost spill the contents of my guts on the floor.

I walk to Yazmine and she's not moving. Is she dead ? I know she cant be dead. No no no.

I hit her knee hard and she screams and wakes up.

'I'm sorry Yazmine I had to make sure you weren't dead. Don't be mad at me. Please" I beg, tears streaming down my face. I pick her up bridal style and carry her up the stairs. A tear falls down and onto her face.

She looks at me obviously confused and faints as I carry her up the stairs.

I don't like hurting her I really don't. It hurts me to do it. But the voice in my head...It's getting so strong...

I set her on my kitchen table and inject her with a local anesthesia. This will ease the pain and keep her asleep. I wipe my tears and stare at her beautiful face.

Don't worry Yaz I'll always be here. Whether you want me here or not. I'm your shadow.
