Obsessed

Chapter Five

I turned around to find the guy staring at me through my window. I jump.

"Omg! I'm sorry. Um, Excuse me." I say.

 Trying to walk past him, he smiles at me. 

"Silly girl, it's me." He said.

I look confused. There was barely anyone at the park, if something happened, there was no one to save me. 

"Um, I'm sorry, who?" I ask.

He pulls me in for a hug and whispers, "Jack."

I pull away looking around. I check my phone, and act like I'm upset. I roll my eyes.

"My mom needs me to come home." I said.

"I can walk you home." He offered. 

"No! I can walk by myself. I'm actually gonna text you my way there." 

"Be careful." He said with a creepy smile. 

I run away, not looking back. I unlock my phone and delete his number. 

"Okay, no Jack anymore. Just tell him we're over, and delete him, no block him." I said to myself.

I finally arrive home, where Nick and Brandon are sitting on the front step. I rolled my eyes.

"What do you guys want." I said.

"How was Jack?" Nick asked.

"He was perfect actually. He brought me Dunkin Donuts, and we talked. But my mom texted me to come home, so I had to leave." I said laughing a little.

Brandon knew I was lying, but insisted to play along.

"Cool." He said getting up. "Well, I don't see a reason why I have to stay." He smiled, "I hope he makes you happy." 

I frown. I wanted to tell him to stay, and hug me. To tell him he was right, that I should have listened to him. I was just too weak to say it. Nick looked at me, opens the door, and drags me to my room. I started to tear up, but stopped, as I didn't want to tell Nick about anything. We got into my room.

"So what actually happened?" Nick asked.

"Nothing, why?" I said.

"Jack is a psychopath. Brandon-"

"I don't care if Brandon showed you a video Jack sent him of me sleeping. Okay? He loves me, and-" 

"No he doesn't! He's going to hurt you!" He yelled.

I looked away. There's that guy again.

"Nick, do you see that guy looking in the window?" I asked. "Look in the mirror."

He looked, and saw him. He went wide eyed. 

"Christina, is that the guy you met up with?" He asked me.

I nodded. Nick gave this nauseated look at me.

"You mean, he knows where you live!" He yelled. 

"Would you shut up!" I yelled back. 

We both looked at each other. 

"Ugh, okay, he was really creepy. I didn't want to say Brandon was right." I said.

"Listen, you need to call the police-" 

"No. I can't.." I said cutting him off again.

"You need to!" He yelled.

"Fine." I said.

I looked out the window. He was gone.

"He's gone." I said.

Nick looked at me and made a note on the desk that said, "Call the police" He left and hugged me.

"Call me if anything happens. Or call Brandon. Please." He said.

I look away and nod. I won't. I can handle this myself.
