A Delirious Nightmare

Chapter 3: Second day

John's pov...

I woke up for once having the best sleep in my life, which I know isn't very long but still. But then I heard my mom, screaming as she ran up the stairs to my room. Since I know how to transform into my raccoon form since my dad taught me, I transformed and hid in the smallest space in my room, in a little corner that I made for times especially like this. I made it so that it could be small enough for me to squeeze through, but big enough that I can sleep in if I really wanted to. I close the gap almost all the way so that I can still see what my mom is doing. I almost screech as I see her run into my room screaming "JOHNATHAN DENIS!!!! Where are you?!?!"

While she is busy looking in a corner of my room, I move the little door and run out as fast as I can. Unfortunately, it's not fast enough because my mom hears me and chases after me. I hear her run after me and I know that I'm dead pretty much. When she catches me I bite her hand as hard as I can, hoping to draw some blood from her hand so she can drop me. She does and I bolt out of the room, transform back into my human form and run away from the house as fast as I can. I run to the only place that I know I'm safe... 

When I met Evan and his mom yesterday they said that if I ever wanted to come over anytime, I could. I told them about my mom and my dad, and immediately Evan and his mom gave me a hug. I didn't know what to do so I just stood there bewildered. My mother never gives me hugs, instead, she gives me beatings because she thinks that I am disgusting. I didn't know what to do, so I kind of gave an awkward hug back to them, and for once, I didn't know what I was feeling. But I do know that it wasn't fear or anger. 

I ran all the way to his house not bothering to check if my mom was flying to catch me. But when I heard wings flapping at a very rapid pace, that's when I freaked out and ran even faster. "COME BACK HERE RIGHT NOW YOUNG MAN!!" My mom was screaming at me to go home but when I saw Evan's house that he told me about, I ran faster than I knew that I could. Somehow I was able to outrun my mom and hid behind the house. I hid behind a cluster of trees where I knew she wouldn't find me. While I was listening to see if she was still there or not, I ran to the front of the house and knocked on the door. Almost as soon as I knocked, I saw Evan answer the door and let me in. I told him all that was happening and as soon as I did, he hugged me and locked the door, which to my surprise, there were 4 different locks on the door.

Evan pov...

I hear a knock at the door and when I opened the door, I was surprised to see my new friend Delirious. He looked like he had seen a ghost because he was so pale. I asked him what was wrong and pulled him inside, he looked like he wanted to cry really bad so I gave him a hug. I could tell that he didn't know what to do because he just stood there. That is until I felt cold hands slowly grab my back and tighten very fast onto my shirt. I could hear his soft crying so I told him that I was going to be right back and ran to get my mommy.
