Melanie

Blood

That's all I could see was blood.

It was everywhere it seemed as I sat in the middle of the dark pool of ruby red liquid that clung to the edge of my black dress. The lace trim fanned out around me in a circle as the blood slowly crept up the fabric. Everywhere I turned was blood. Looking to my hands raising them from the floor as it covered them, dripping down my arms as if it was wax melting in my palms.

"Help!" I yelled but the darkness was like a wall of nothingness.

"Someone please help me!" I screamed as the tears poured down my cheeks, my strawberry blonde hair tipped in scarlet as the blood crawled up to my waist engulfing my legs sucking me under as I pleaded for someone or something. Grasping out into the empty air for anything. But nothing was there.

"PLEASE I beg of you! Someone please help!" I screeched trembling as I tried to stand and turn in vain as the blood rose higher and higher till it was sliding up my neck. A dark voice raising from the empty room in vibrant laughter.

"No one can help you now. You have killed the only man that will ever love you." He chuckled darkly as I turned my head to were I thought the sound was coming from to see a shadow body amongst the blood laying on their side still.

"No. No. No. No. No. Please no! Lawrence!" I wailed my body finally moving to my will as I crawled hastily to the dark figure as I rolled him over seeing the truth as his once beautiful eyes stared out blankly dull of its vibrant blue to only blank grey.

"Lawrence please don't leave me!" I cried taking both of my hands to his cold cheeks as tears poured in rivers down my cheek pressing my face to his cold chest no longer beating.

"You did this." The voice called as I shook my head vigorously against Lawrence's white suit jacket tinting in blood lifting my head to twisting my neck to look around the empty blackness.

"Never! You liar!" I yelled in anguish raising to scream into the darkness. A light shining above as if a beacon to highlight every stone feature of Lawrence's lifeless form.

"Then see for yourself." The voice countered hearing a smile in his tone.

Suddenly my hands bloomed with warmth looking down to see a beautiful hair pin of purple oval stones decorated in diamonds design with feathers sticking out of Lawrence's chest clenched in between my hands. Terrifyingly his eyes turned to mine as his lips moved, blood seeping out of the corners of his mouth tainting his white teeth with each word.

"Why Melanie? I thought you loved me? Why did you kill me my love?" He questioned looking to me with betrayal as I shook my head grasping the hair pin tightly as I tried to draw it from his chest but would not move as he slowly faded again, his eyes rolling back.

"No Lawrence! It wasn't me. Lawrence come back to me! I love you, I can't live without you!" I cried as his head fell limp to the side to the pool of blood that I now knew was his.

"Melanie I'm here! Melanie wake up." Lawrence called as I turned in the pool of blood around me to the sound of his voice.

"Lawrence please come back to me! Don't leave me!" I sobbed as a feeling of warmed started to coat my skin while chills cascading across my spin in a light mist.

"Melanie!" Lawrence roared my eyes flying open to see Lawrence looking over me in panic. His hair wild just as much as his eyes frantically taking in every feature of my being as my eyes darted around him and the room.

In one quick movement I threw my arms around his neck as I sobbed into his shoulder, his arms wrapping around me tightly as he breathed out a heavily breath barely hearing it over my own harsh breathing.
