"Leave"
"Nope"
"Leave, God damn it" I say irritated
"I said it before and I'm gong to say it again: not until you tell me what's going on" Julian replies playing with the remote.

I glare at him "How did you even get into my house?"
"I used the spare under the welcome mat" he says without looking up.
I should really find a better hiding place for the spare then. I mentally put that on my to do list right after I find away to get Julian out of my house.

"If you don't leave I'm going to call the cops"

"No you won't, I had a key so no breaking and entering and I've been here half an hour already"

I scram into the couch pillow angrily. I sit up calmly and turn to say to him "You're insufferable" He laughs, the sound makes my heart flutter. He just would not give up. It was infuriating, this boy needed to get over me. I don't let myself think of his confession from the night of the dance. It had been two weeks since then. Still no new games to play from my anonymous messenger.

"You know what since you're not gonna leave I will. Remember to lock the door when you leave" I huff. I get up from the couch and grab my coat. Julian runs across the house and stands in front of the door, blocking the door actually.

"I can't let you leave princess" he says crossing his arms. "Real mature" I deadpan "now get out of my way"

"Like I said, no can do" There's a playful smile on his lips, his blue ya just glinting with mischief.
"Julian, I need to get to the door"
"Okay"
In a whirl of moment, I'm being pinned to the door by Julian. His arms box me in. I have to tilt back to see his face, it was moments like these that reminded me how short I am compare to him.

"You really are one of the most infuriating man I've ever known"

He smiles coyly "I know"

"You can't keep me here forever" I try pushing him but he won't budge.

"I don't know about that, perhaps a few hours and that should be enough to get you to tell me what's being going on"

Before I reply the house phone rings.  "Julian I have to go get that"

He shrugs "They can leave a message"

I glare at him as the phone continues to ring until finally it stops. I cringe as the recording of my voice plays.

"Oh dear sweet Lillian" I freeze when I hear that voice "I warned you to stay away from him."

"Who the fu-" Julian starts. I push him out fo the way and run to the phone.

"What do you want" I hiss into the phone

They respond with laughter

"Oh poor Julian looks so confused and-"

I feel sick "what?" I whisper

"Oh you didn't know? I can see you, I see everything. I know everything."

"Leave me alone!" I yell into the phone and slam back onto the the stand.

Warm arms wrap around me. "What's going on Lillian?" He murmurs softly into my ear. I shake my head containing the sobs that are threatening to pass through my lips.

Glass shatters. My head snaps up and we both go to investigate. A brick lays surrounding my glass on the kitchen floor. "What the.."

Something else comes flying through the window. The kitchen fills with smoke, I can't see, I can't breath.
