Dear Diary,

I told you that I would tell you more about Daniel today. That is what I am here to do. My boyfriend walked me to my first class on the Monday after the dance and he kissed me upon entering the classroom. It was like a 60 second kiss. After that the bell rang and he ran to his class. I was so happy after that kiss. It made me feel alive again and totally woke me up that morning. Ok anyway, I sat down in my desk and my teacher (Mrs. Langford) takes roll in her role book. This time, I didn't hear Daniel's name. I just looked at his desk (I don't know why) and I see a ghostly image of him staring at me. I was scared and just screamed as soon as I looked at him. Everyone is silenced and just stared at me. Mrs Langford asks me if everything is ok. I tell her that everything is ok and that I'm fine. Later on Mrs Langford is writing a math problem on the board and I see Daniel up there again, wanting to answer the math problem because he was always a smart student. Can you guess what I did? If not I'll tell you. I screamed. Mrs. Langford again asks me if I'm ok. I tell her I thought I saw something. I wanted to say someone but I didn't want to sound insane. The next time I see him I'm in 3rd hour and me and my boyfriend are in the corner of the room. We were getting close to that time when my teacher (Mr. Smith) stops teaching us and sleeps. During that time we would kiss the rest of the class period (30 minutes) and nobody would care because they are either sleeping, texting, or reading. Well right now he is cleaning off the board and I see him approach my boyfriend with a knife. I scream bloody murder and run out of class. Mr. Smith is chasing me down the hallway and asks me what is going on. Everyone is so concerned about me since my two of my loved ones died. I break down, fall on my knees, cry, and confess to Mr. Smith everything that is going on. He escorts me to the guidance office and I stayed in there until the middle of 4th hour just discussing this issue I have. I'm walking back to class with a guidance pass when I see him again. I shriek but he holds his hand to my mouth to silence me. I could actually feel his hand. He also comes behind me and wraps his arms around me like he still loves me and says "Everything is ok baby." I start trying to hit him but there is a mishap with that plan. He tells me that he's allowed to touch me but I'm not allowed to touch him. Now that's fucking messed up. Anyway I ask him what is he doing here. He said these exact words "I'm here because I still love you. I am still your boyfriend, or so I thought, and I want to spend the rest of my time on earth with you." I tell him that I have another boyfriend and that I moved on and started walking off. He grabs a piece of pipe and just hits me with it and drags me off.

Enough on that for today. I feel like I'm gonna start crying.

Sincerely,

Cassie
