The clown

#7

Well that kiss was unexpected.
"Hey Nathan."
"Yeah."
"I'm gonna go back to sleep because I hardly slept."
"Same here."
I doze off to sleep in his arms and he rests his head on mine and he dozes off too. I begin to dream. It was a nightmare. I begin to scream and twitch in my sleep. The dream was everything that happened how I found my family how I couldn't hug them.
"AVA!" I hear a voice call me
"W-what's going on?"
"You had a bad dream."
I begin to cry. Nathan knows what my dream was and he holds me tightly.
"It's gonna be ok. He's gonna go to jail. I'll make it happen. Please Ava I know how much your hurting. Just trust me. I love you." Nathan whispers in my ear

My phone begins to ring. I check who it is. Piper.
"Hello?" I say sobbing
"Ava, I'm so sorry. I heard what happened." Piper says
"How do you know?"
"It's all over the news. Where are you?"
"I'm with Nathan."
"Oh ok can I come see you?"
"Yeah sure. I'll tell you the address."
"Ok thanks."
"The address is 37 Thomas street."
"Ok I'll be there in half and hour. Love you."
"Love you too."
I cry.
"Pipers coming over Nathan."
"Ok."

When I hear piper get here I fly down the stairs and race straight into her arms in tears.
"Piper."
"Ava. I'm so sorry. I wish this never happened."
"I can't change it now. It's too late."
"Hey Piper." Nathan says
"Hey Nate. Did you take good care of my girl last night?"
"Very good care Pipes."
"Thanks."
I continue to cry in Piper's arm until I see someone.

"Piper let's get inside."
"Ok."
I lock the door behind us. I look to see who it is. It's the...
"Oh my god Piper, Nathan!" I yell
"What is it?" Piper rushes over
"Oh my god." Nathan gasps
"It's the clown. Carrying my dead family."
"Lock everything."Piper says
We being rushing around locking everything. I go back to the window and he's still standing there waving. I cry. Nathan rushes in and hugs me.
"Everything's locked." Piper says.
