Unconditional

Danger..?

*BANG BANG BANG*

I groan and pull my pillow over my head, I hate mornings.

*BANG BANG BANG*

I growl and sit upright. "What?!" I yell. "Mom said it's time to eat." My older brother says in his deep, Mexican accent voice. I grab the ends of my hair and tug. I am sooo not a morning person, disturb me too early, and you're dead.
I slowly drag myself from my bed and drag my feet to the door, most likely getting carpet burn. I open my door up and am greeted by the heavy aroma of bacon and pancakes. My mood instantly perks and my stomach curses at me for making it wait.
I walk into the kitchen and see my mom cooking on the electric skillet, her baby bump being very noticeable.
"Morning, my sweetheart!" Mom smiles. "Hi, Mom." I yawn. As I said, not a morning person.
I come over to the island and sit on one of the stools. My three younger brothers come running out of their rooms, trying to beat each other to the table.
"Hey! Settle down, now." Mom calls. Sebastian, Lium, and Marco slow down, but still fast walk to the table. Lium wins. "Ha! I won, suckers!" Lium yells in victory. "Come make your plates, you crazy boys. Mama needs to lie down." Mom says and yawns. She turns off the skillet, she places a hand on her back and walks towards her room.
The boys walk towards the island and cupboards, they grab their plates and place food on them. Miguel walks in from the bathroom and steals a piece of bacon.
"Tell Mom I'm going to work, please." He says and heads for the door. "Alright," I yawn, "dont work too hard!" I joke. I hear him chuckle amd exit the house.
I stand up and grab a plate from the cupboard, I place some food on it and sit back down at the island. The boys are talking while eating, I look at them and smile. I love my family so much.

I walk back to my room after I finish up my food. I plop back on my bed in my nightgown, I close my eyes and try to snooze a little longer. My eyes instantly shoots open as my phone starts ringing. Curses! I reach over to my nightstand and look at the caller ID. It's my cousin and only friend, Ally. I press accept and put it up to my ear.
"Hey, Ally." I yawn. "Hey, Lyn! Hows my BCF doin this morning?" She says enthusiastically. Hmmm.
"Good, you?" "Amazing! I got accepted into my college and got my job!" I sat up. "Oh my gosh, A, that's amazing! I'm so happy for you!" "Me too! Gosh, I'm so ecstatic, I could just-- aaaaaaaah!" I drop my phone as my ear rings loudly, that girl is really excited.
I quickly pick my phone up and press it against my other ear. "Wow, hehe, glad you're so happy!" I smile. "Hehe, thanks. So, anything happen to you?" "Nothing special, I'm still working on that one book of mine and my job at Pizza Hut is killing me." "Uh oh, tell me what's happening." "Well, my coworkers arent very fond of me, soo they dont like telling me certain things. Like when I'm supposed to deliver the pizzas. My boss is going to fire me--" "Hold that thought, Lyn, I'm getting a call. I'll talk to you in a bit. Bye!" She hangs up.
I pull my phone away from my ear and sigh. "Bye." I let out a deep breath and get up. I walk to my closet and pick out some loose shorts with a loose, striped T. I slip my gown off and put my clothes on. I slip my flip-flops on and grab my head phones.
I walk out of my room, into the livingroom and towards the door. "I'm heading out!" I yell. I open the door and walk out. I plug my headphones into my phone and go to Pandora. I click on one of my stations and wait for the music.
Soon, Bad Romance by Lady Gaga starts blasting through the speakers of my headphones. I bob my head to the music as I walk along the sidewalk.
As I'm listening, a small memory pops into my head from years ago.

Tears stream down my face as blood drips from my hand. I cut myself... I cut myself because of my inner pain. I look at my hand gripping the knife, I squeeze it in my grasp. I'm outside, in the woods of my town. No one knows I'm here, no one knows what I'm doing.
My pocket starts buzzing with my phone in it. I ignore it at first and look at the blood on my hand. My phone rings again and I shakily pull it out. My boyfriend's caller ID shows itself from the screen. I take a deep breath and answer...

"Promise me you'll never hurt yourself again." His voice broke...

"I love you too much..."

I snap out of my thoughts when a woman bumps into me. I notice I was rubbing the center of my palm without realizing. I look at the woman and immediately apologize. "I'm so sorry, ma'am! I didnt see you."
The woman turned around and I saw her face. She had red, fiery hair, deep violet eyes, plump pink lips, and a tall, slim figure. She looks close to my age.
"Well next time, maybe you should wear your glasses, bitch." She snaps, and turns. She starts swinging her hips as she walks away.
"Sorry..." I mumble. I feel something warm run down my cheek and I quickly wipe it away. Stop crying, Lyn, no one ever sees you cry.
I take a deep breath and start walking again.
I walk for what almost feels like an hour, but I dont really mind. I decide to turn around and head back. A new song starts playing, Heart Attack by Demi Lovato.
I begin to sing along to the lyrics. After twenty minutes of walking, a piece of paper flies in front of me from the wind. I look at it and grab it, curious as to see if there is anything on it.
That's when, my heart starts beating fast.

You're In Danger... Run.

"Danger..?" I mutter to myself.
"Lyn!" I hear a girl screech. I look up and see Ally running towards me. Alongside her is that redhead from earlier. What's going on...?
Suddenly, a shot rings through the air. Along with my high pitched scream and Ally calling out to me.
