The Lucky Ones

Chapter Twenty-Six: Unknown Name, Unknown Number.

We got back to my dorm, and Sans closed the door. He said "Why'd you go out in the rain?" I looked at the floor. "I wanted to go for a walk outside, even though it was raining..." He sighed. Touching my hair, he said "But your hair got wet. You know I like your hair."

"I'm sorry..." He only smiled and kissed my cheek. "It's okay, my love. Just take your phone with you whenever you go on walks and I'm not there with you. If something goes wrong, call me. Understand?" I nodded. I was a bit shook up from watching three people from my past die. By my husband's hand. At least he made their bodies disappear before he took the wall down...

I heard my phone ring from the bedroom. I went to go get it. The caller ID said:

"Unknown Name. Unknown number."

Sans shouted from the living room. "Who is it?" I replied "I'm not sure. it says 'Unknown'."

I answered it. "Hello?"

"Tesla. Your life is in danger. You have to get away from Harvard. From your friends. From Sans. If you don't do it by tonight, you will die. Heed my warning."

I was a little freaked out. Who was this person? How did he know I was staying at Harvard? How did he know I was married? How did he know Sans was my husband? The voice was distorted, so I couldn't figure them out by voice. "Wh-Who is this? How did you get my number?"

No response.

Sans walked in and said "Who is it?" I only shrugged. I really didn't know. He grabbed for my phone, but I dodged. I wanted to know who this was. "Baby, tell me who it is. Are you cheating on me? Is that why you won't tell me?"

My mouth fell open and I dropped my phone. I spoke a bit louder than I intended to. "I am NOT cheating on you! I'd NEVER! Anyone who cheats has a sick mind. A sick, SICK, mind."

He said "Good." and picked up my phone. "Who is this?"

His expression changed. "Why? Who the hell are you? Why are you saying she has to leave? She isn't in danger. She's fine with- WHAT?! I'd NEVER hurt her!!"

"I would never leave her. And she would never leave me. I've never hurt her. Ever."

I put my hands in my pockets, covering my wrist with my sleeve. I didn't want him to figure out about what he did to me in the God Lands. His eyes burst blood red. "Back the fuck off my woman. I don't know if this is a plan to take her away from me, but I'm not letting her go so easily. I'll tell you one more time. Back. The. Fuck. Off."

I was staring at Sans as he hung up. He said "You promise you don't know who he is?" I nodded. If I knew who he was, I'd tell him. He put his hands on my shoulders and kissed me. I kissed back, as he ran his hands down my arms. Reaching my elbows, he started to kiss me with tongue. I blushed, but naturally kissed back the same way.

He touched my wrist, and I flinched. "What? What's wrong?" he asked. I bit my tongue and kept quiet. "Nope. Don't tell him. DON'T TELL HIM." I thought to myself. He said "Tesla, what happened? Did one of those people hurt you?" I shook my head and lowered it, starring at the ground.

He touched my wrist again, and I flinched again. I backed up, but I went too far. I fell backwards onto the bed, and Sans put himself over me. He pinned me down by holding my arms against the mattress. "You should've just told me."

Sans grabbed my sleeve and yanked it down, revealing my bruised wrist. I struggled to get away, but he was too strong. His weight was heavier than mine, mainly because he had a lot of muscle. He was also a lot stronger than me. He said "Who did this? Tell me. Now."

I teared up. "I-In the God Lands, you got mad at Nileta, a-and grabbed onto my wrist. You had a tight hold, and I think it's fractured..."

He stared at my wrist in shock. "I.... I did this...? I... hurt you..?"

"No, baby. I'm fine. Really, I am. Don't feel bad. I promise I'm okay."

"No. I hurt you. And I remember practically throwing you into your own throne. I hurt you. There's no denying it."

He looked as if he was going to burst into tears. He stood up and left the room, leaving me alone on the bed. I heard my dorm's door slam shut, and then it was silent. Great. Now Sans was pissed at himself and was going to self-loath about it for hours and hours on end. "Good work, Tes. You really had a way to make things worse." I said out loud, frustrated with myself.

I waited for him to come back.

Minutes.

Half-hours.

Hours.

Until I heard a knock at the door. I rushed to it, thinking it was Sans. Flinging the door open, I saw a woman standing there. She was a pretty red-headed woman with beautiful green eyes. She looked at me and said "Hello, are you Tesla Chan?"

I responded. "Erm, yes. That's me. May I help you with something?" She started speaking, but I wasn't paying any attention. I was looking at her neck. A grey aura with red splodges lingered there. She was a human who was touched by Evil Darkness.

"Tesla? Ma'am?"

I snapped out of it and looked at her. "I'm sorry, what?"

She smiled. "It's alright. I was wondering if you'd come with me for a moment?" I shook my head. "No, I can't I'm sorry. I have to wait for my husband to get home."

She said "Please. I really need your assistance. I know it's hard for you to trust me, I've been touched by Evil Darkness. But my brother is very sick. He needs your help. Please..." She looked sincere, but I didn't want to be gone if Sans came back. I repeated myself. "I'm sorry..."

"Tesla, I'm begging you. He needs help. I've tried to find people who would heal him, but no one will. I can't reach either your mother or father, nor your husband. You're my last hope. I can pay you. What do you want? I'll-"

I held up my hand. "Stop. I can't do it. I've said it twice now, and I'm saying it a third time. No. Please try to find someone else. I have to wait for my husband to come home. I'm not trying to sound rude, but I'm not in the best mood to help anyone at the moment.

She sighed and looked away. "If only you cooperated." I looked at her in confusion.

Right then, I fell over after being hit in the back of the head by something, and only saw darkness from there on.
