"Wake up Mel! Wake up!" I opened my eyes groggily to see my bestfriend Nicholas staring at me & shouting at me. As usual I groaned and threw the pillow at him. I rolled over to see what time it was 6;45.
. "Oh shit!" I yelled as i jumped out of bed & became dizzy from getting up so fast. I turned and looked at Nicholas. He was standing there just looking at me.
Fuck..I forgot i was in my tanktop and underwear.
He always gets to tramatized when he sees me like this, which is about every morning when i wake up. We live together. I'm 16 and he's 17. But we're both in the same grade.
"Why didn't you wake me up!?" i screeched
"Hey now, i slept over to, there for I couldn't wake you up!" He laughed at me and threw a pillow at me. I then proceeded to launch myself at him and tackled him to the floor. There I was, just sitting on him, still in my Tanktop and underwear
. "Let's say we don't go to school today." He said. "Okay." I smiled and got off of him.
I ran into the bathroom and took a quick shower, i wrapped myself up in my towel and went in my room to get my clothes. I put them on and ran downstairs and plopped down on the couch with Nicholas
. "So what's the plan?" "Well, i thought that we could go get some food, then we could go to the mall or something. Sound good?" "Sounds perfect Nicholas." I smiled at him.
Me and Nick have been good friends for a while and I've had a major crush on him for years, but i don't think he likes me back. Well, life goes on.
We got up off the couch and started towards the door. Proceeding to his Blue Ford Fusion. I loved his car! We got in, started up, & off to Moe's we went.
* * * * *
On the way to Moe’s all it was, was just small talk. Little this little that. But the whole time, I couldn’t help but look at Nicholas. His straight black hair and his darkish blue eyes. I can’t help but think that someone deep inside he likes me. I wanna talk to him about it but I can’t.. It’d just be to hard.. I felt him touch my arm outta my gaze which was really embarrassing to know that he caught me staring at him..
“Mel, you okay?” His face was concerned some.
“I’m fine.” I put on a fake smile and just turned my head to just watch out the window. There’s this big field about 7 miles from where I live. Me and Nicholas use to play there all the time when we were little. We haven’t been back since the most horrible day of my & maybe Nicholas’s life..
FLASHBACK
“Mel! Mel! Come look at this!” April screamed at me from the field. I turned my back for 1 split second to see what Nicholas wanted.
“Melissa! Melissa!” April yelled for me. Muffled screams coming from every direction. I just panicked, I started running around, frantic on what happened to her, and which way she might’ve went. I turned to my left to see a guy in bloody overalls and a mask. He was a holding a butcher knife. I started crying frantically. He was dragging her. I ran to her as fast as I could screaming her and Nicholas’s name. I ran with all my might and then..
END FLASHBACK
I blacked out. When I woke up, there was April. Her throat slashed and her stomach ripped open.. She was naked. Her hands & feet were tied and she had a gag in her mouth. She was laying right next to me. I’ll never forget that day. I don’t even know who the man was.. I’d never seen him before. On April was a note written in her own blood.. It read;
“Hello, my lovely. Yes, I know. I killed your friend, and I’ll make sure I get you and your friend Nicholas. Just wait, I come back ever 3 years. You’ll see me on March 12, I promise you that. Be a good girl till then, I like my meat clean and fresh. Stay alive till then my dear.
Love always,
Your new lover. Xoxo.
Just thinking about it made my heart race. Nicholas was found in the field just 2 hours after I woke up. We never told anyone about the note, but the police investigation took almost 8 months. Her mother wouldn’t give up. Yet, she blamed the shit on us and said it was our fault that her daughter died. I hate that bitch. But, today's March 12, so we have to be extra careful.
I didn’t even notice that Nicholas had been sitting there yelling at me until I looked over.
“You okay Mel?” “I’m fine, it’s just.” My voice trailed off. “Just what?” He asked. I sighed not wanting to even say it. Already hating myself for even thinking about it. “Today’s March 12th.” “What abo-“ He stopped and his eyes became huge. I knew he understood now. We’d lost our appetites after talking about it for a couple hours. We decided to drive back home and stay there till tomorrow. We didn’t wanna risk getting killed. I decided I was gonna lay down and try to just sleep the day away. I didn’t wanna be alone, so I asked Nicholas if he would sleep with me. He said yes. He got in my bed and wrapped me up in his arms. Damn I love him.. So much. I’m gonna tell him. I just hope he doesn’t freak out on me. I made my mind forget about it and slowly fell asleep.
Sooo? Like? Thinking about doing Nicholas's P.O.V. think so? pleasee tell me what you think! <3
