I've walked 4 blocks and I'm already tired. Man I really regret this decision, but I want to do something nice for JB...especially since I almost bet the crap out of him with a hammer. Then it turns out he's my roommate. He doesn't seem perverted. He seems like a sweetheart..someone who would do anything for their girlfriend. I look at my glowing phone screen to catch a look at the map. There I see "Panda Express" written in little letters one one of the corners on the map. I locate Panda Express and walk inside.

Finally.

I sit down as I text JB realizing I never asked what he wanted to order.

Me: Hey roomie! I just realized I never asked you what you wanted lol.

JB: ㅋㅋ I'll have some Kung Pao Chicken with Rice please!

Me: Kay. I'll go order now. See you in a bit.

JB: Ok.

I walk up to the counter and order JB's food and for myself I order some Orange Chicken and Rice. After I pay, I go over to one of the lounge chairs and sit down. My phone's battery was getting low so I put it away just in case I needed it. They had a TV with the news channel turned on. Since I had nothing better to do, but wait, I ended up watching it.

; Reports Of A Man in His late 40's Stalking and Attacking Women Late At Night! Be Careful Out There! ;

Huh. What kind of sicko does that? Luckily the reports are on the other side of town so I don't have to worry about that. Just as the news lady was about to announce something else about the attacks I hear my name being called meaning our food was ready.

; Last Known Attack Around The Lammondston Area. Be Careful If You Live Around Or In This Area. ;

I went up to the counter, grabbed the food, thanked the worker, and went on my merry way. I made sure to grab a two liter of Coke at a convience store just across the street so we could have something to drink. After walking for a while I decided to take a shortcut and go through the park. It was empty and spooky at night.

Seems like the Boogie Man could just jump out at any moment.

I hear a twig snap. That was definitely not me as I had no sticks under my feet. I whip my head around and see a shadow disappear behind a bush. I decide to shake it off thinking it was just an animal and continue walking. After a few minutes, I hear footsteps behind me. I look over my shoulder and see an older man following me. I start walking faster. When I feel like I put some distance between us I look back again, but he was all caught up. I started freaking out and took my phone out of my back pocket to text JB.

Me: JB help. There is a strange man following me. He looks suspicious and I'm scared. Can you come get me?

JB: Of course Y/N! Where are you?

Me: Daunton Park

JB: I'll be right there. Try to lose him. Circle around the bathrooms and hide in a bush or something. Make sure you stay hidden.

Me: Okay

I turn my phone off and stick it back in my pocket. I frantically look around for the bathrooms. When I finally spot them on the left I start speed walking to them. When I look behind left a third time the man is still following me. I walk around the bathrooms once. I look behind me and see the man had not caught up yet. I make a mad dash for the bushes and hide in there.

I don't think he saw me.

I poke my head out and see the man looking around. He looks in my direction. I try ducking my head back down as fast as I could, but he spots me and starts walking over here.

I'm so stupid. Why didn't I just listen to JB keep my head hidden. I'm about to die and my life hasn't really started yet.

I feel a hand on my shoulder drag me up. I close my eyes when I see that it was the strange man.

"Why hello pretty. What are you doing walking around here at night. Alone. Come with me...I'll make sure you're safe." He says with a slight smirk.

I open my mouth to say something back but I'm so scared nothing comes out. I'm also so scared my body has completely frozen and I couldn't move a muscle. He pins me to a nearby tree and starts kiss me. I try and protest but he was too strong and held my hands against the tree. He takes his other hand and roams it around my body. I start to cry feeling so helpless and wondering where JB is and why the hell he wasn't there yet. The man, not even fazed by the fact that we are outside, tries to take my shirt off. I start to cry even harder.

I feel so dirty. This is it. I'm about to be like all those poor women. I'm about to loose all innocence.

The next thing I know the guy's hand was starting to roam up my skirt. Which means he go tired of trying to take my shirt off while still restricting my hands. Then I feel his hands leave my body and his lips disappear from mine. I open my eyes with tears streaming down my face to see the man lying on the ground groaning. I feel another pair of hands, that I recognize, grab my wrist and drag me away. I notice that it was JB who had punched the guy and was now saving me. When we finally get inside the apartment I just hug JB and cry into his chest. He drops the food, which he must've picked up after punching the guy, and wraps his arms around me. He strokes the top of my head and runs his other hand up and down my back in an attempt to calm me down.
