The New Girl in Town

Eye on the prize

Tate POV:

As I look out the window, I can see the sold sign shining in the sun on our yard. I start to wonder which unlucky family has brought the "murder house" this time. Suddenly I am brought out of my concentration, as a blue Volkswagen camper van pulls up on the curb. I can see the unlucky family roll out the van stretching their muscles, as delivery trucks bring their stuff in.

That’s then I see, the most beautiful girl ever. She was breath taking, with her dirty blonde hair swaying in the wind and laid back attitude and her fiery eyes she possessed, I had to have her. The way she acted and looked around it was like the actions of a psychopath, my psychopath.

I could see her mother walking in, acting like a whore to get the male’s attention. What a cock-sucker. Maybe she should meet my mum; they’ll get on great with each other. As I look back at her I can see she is wonderland just looking at the front garden admiring the roses Moira has just planted to try and disguise there is a body under there. Until what looks like her brother comes and pushes her and breaks her concentration. The look she gives him just makes my heart break; if looks could kill, he would be on the floor dead by now.  I know just by that this was the girl for me. I was first intrigued by Violet by her personality and how she didn’t care for anything in the world, but she didn’t understand me properly and she couldn’t see I was trying to help her. But this girl I can see where going to get along just fine.

I tried to pry my attention away from this fascinating girl while she got her boxs and started to walk into the house, but I couldn’t, it was like a spell training me to look at her delicate body and face.

I thought about going down there and follow her but my train of thought was cut off, when Doctor Harmon put a hand on my shoulder. "Leave this girl alone Tate. Or else. We don’t want any more trouble" He stated menacing! Oooooo! What could he do? Strangle me? I’m already dead. Like the rest of us here stuck in this god’s forsaken house in this filthy horror show, we called the world. Never getting away from the shit and the piss and the vomit what run on the street instead stuck here forever, watching as it gets worse and worse.  I just laughed and pursed my lips. His gaze on me hardened. I shook my head and said "Dr Harmon. You may know about my mental capabilities but you have no idea about my physical one!”

We stood in silence until Doctor Harmon broke it “Why have you chosen this girl Tate haven’t you destroyed enough lives already? “

"She is hot!" My tone was cold and solid. He raised his eyebrow knowingly. "Is that all?" A dark, menacing laugh erupted from the back of my throat as I replied, "Would you rather have me chasing Violet? At least I have moved on!"

He started at me vacantly. “I didn’t think so” At that I took my leave.

I was going to get this girl at any cost. Even if it meant killing her! I just needed her she was like my drug!

As go past my old bedroom, I can see Violet on the bed watching the girl put her stuff away. How dare she! What gives her the right to watch my girl; I storm in and drag her out by the ear. Outside the room and I whisper in her ear to stay away from her or else. The look in my eye shows her I’m not messing around and she quickly runs away down to the basement to see her god forsaken mother and little brother.

I slowly make my way back in and sit on the bed and watch this beautiful creature while she unpacks her things away, planning when I should make my move on her and introduce myself.
