Oblivion

Chapter 10

"Flight 551 for Monroe, Massachusetts is now boarding."

Luke and I snapped out of it and made our way back towards our bags. He then grabbed me one last time and kissed me.

"For good luck." He whispered.

He definitely was the perfect guy. Do I really deserve him?

(Present Time)

A black car came to pick me up in the morning. I had to go through more questioning about the murders of my friends, and I still rarely remembered anything. I couldn't really have killed them, I mean I knew them, they were my friends, they were my family. This whole thing just seems confusing and strange. It doesn't make any sense.

I couldn't see out the windows because they were pitch black. I haven't seen blue sky in two days, which isn't a lot, but pretty soon it's going to drive me crazy. There are also no windows in the room that I'm staying in. I'm trapped.

I figured we were at our destination when the car abruptly came to a halt. The car ride wasn't that long. I counted the seconds and it was about eight minutes away from where I was staying. I could've just walked here, but since i'm apparently a "suspect" I guess they don't want me running around killing people. I laughed out loud to myself and I got a strange look from the driver. He looked at me as if I were crazy, I almost felt like saying something, but I should probably keep my cool, if I want to get out of here.

I saw that we were in a dim lighted parking structure. It had a sketchy feel to it. This whole place had a sketchy feel to it. A man dressed in a suit came up and escorted me to the questioning room, I guess if that's what you want to call it.

There he was. The black silhouette sat before me. The light shined so brightly that I couldn't make out what he looked like. The room still smelled of coffee and mildew, just like last night or maybe morning, I don't know. He had a half eaten maple bar on a napkin, that sat in front of him. It reminded me of Luke and how he always had to have a donut and coffee every morning. I started to tear up.

"Lexi, nice to see you again. Please sit,"

I wiped my eyes and sat down and for some reason I felt really nervous, but why? I had nothing to hide.

"Let's get right to it. Did you remember anything from the other night? Don't be afraid to tell me. Just be honest."

"No. I'm really sorry, I tried really hard to remember but there's nothing that came up. I'm sorry that I can't be any help."

"I understand that you must be in a difficult place, but just think really hard. There has to be something. Anything will work."

"Look I get that you want something, but I can't tell you anything if I don't remember a single thing. Why am I even here in the first place? You honestly think that I could have the ability to kill my friends? Because I actually think far from that. Why would I hurt any one of them?! I loved them. I loved him. I j-just wish that none of this ever happened! Tell me officer whatever the hell your name is.. why am I here? So you can assume I'm the guilty one and arrest me on the spot?! Just because I was the only one alive, i'm all of a sudden a suspect? It just doesn't make any sense! My god!"

I had so much anger that I've been holding in, I just had to let it all out. I don't even understand why I'm here or for that matter alive. I should be dead. I just want to be with my friends wherever they are. I want to be with Luke. This can't be happening. Not now. Not ever.
