Chapter Ten (Cleo's POV)
My face went cold when Mrs. Jones said that Eric would be at the house with Seth and I. Seth, who was sitting next to me, slipped his hand under the table and put it on my knee. His parents didn't know about our relationship yet, so we still acted like we hated each ohter.
"Did you guys notice Cleo's hair?" Seth asked his parents.
"Yes...it looks nice, Cleo." Mrs. Jones lied, "You know, you should really go out with Seth; you both have that same style."
I blushed, "I'm not sure, he seems like a jerk." I said playfully.
"Hey!" Seth yelled.
"You can't deny what's inside, buddy." I teased.
"So when do you have to leave?" Seth asked.
"Friday." Mr. Jones said. Today was Saturday. Eric was moving on Wednesday.
It was Tuesday night; Eric was moving tomorrow. Seth and I walked into our room. The air mattress was replaced with a twin sized bed. I ran and jumped onto the mattress. Seth came and sat next to me. He pulled me into a hug and kissed me gently on the lips. I went into the bathroom and took a quick shower. I stepped out and wrapped a towel around me. I started drying my hair. I looked at myself in the mirror. Wait...what was that in the reflection? I turned around. It was gone; Eric had been looking at me in a towel. I ran out of the bathroom in my towel and grabbed Seth. I started crying.
"What was it?" he asked.
"I...I...I saw...Eric...looking...at me......through...th....the....window...." I choked out through the tears.
"What is wrong with that guy?" Seth asked to himself. He went into the bathroom, locked the window, and closed the blinds. He did the same to the other windows in his room. He also locked the door.
"Ok, Cleo, you can go change in the closet." Seth told me. I stayed in my place, "Cleo, go on."
"I'm scared." I told him.
Seth went into the closet with me and faced the wall, "Go on and change; I'm not looking." I believed him.
I changed into a sleep shirt that barely covered my ass, "Thanks." I whispered. Kevin nodded and led me over to my bed. I lay down and he pulled the blankets over me. We both went to sleep.
I saw a masked man in the window. He vanished in a matter of seconds. The door opened. The masked man came in. I was tied up against the wall with a gag in my mouth. Seth was tied up next to me. The man pulled up Seth, shoved him against the wall, and shot him in the head. The color left his face. He fell to the floor in a pool of his own blood. The man kicked him until his body was deformed. He came for me next. He undid the rope and stripped me of my clothes. He then raped me. He shoved me against the wall. He then removed his mask, revealing Eric's face. The gun was up to my head. I screamed.
I felt someone pull me into their chest. I screamed and swung around, punching them in the face.
"God Damn It, Cleo!" Seth yelled, "What the hell was that for?!"
I looked around; it was just a dream; a dream, "Seth?" I asked.
"Yes, it's Seth! Now would you explain why you just punched me in the face?!" he yelled at me.
I started crying, "I'm sorry, Seth!" I sobbed, "I had a nightmare; it was about that day that my family died, only it was you and me in this room, and it was Eric in the mask!"
Seth looked sorry about yelling at me. He pulled me against his chest, "I'm sorry, Cleo. Shhhh. Shhhh. It's ok. It's ok. I'm here. I got you." he whispered in my ear. I wrapped my arms around him. Seth lifted me up and put me down in his bed. He climbed in next to me.
I turned to face him. I put my lips on his and kissed him. He kissed me back,wrapping his arms around my waist. Our kisses got harder, and Seth climbed on top of me, his legs straddling my sides. He moved his hands up and down my sides, and pulled me up towards him. His kisses moved down to my neck. He rolled me on top of him and continued kissing me. I felt his hands move under my shirt on my back. I rolled myself onto my back on his chest. His hands went back under my shirt and onto my stomach. I giggle. I rolled off of him and kissed him goodnight.
