Your Sweet 666

Him

I stared out the window, surveying the figure walking toward our house.

"Mum, he looks too young to be a Doctor!" I said as the figure came to our doorstep. I held my breath as I stared down at him. He was dressed all in black, wearing a black leather coat, jeans and a-necklace? I squinted. It was a pendant. A pendant of a heart perhaps? I leant further out the window... And locked eyes with him.

"SHIT!" I hissed, ducking back inside.

"Cherry!" Mum snapped. "For Gods sake what did I say about swearing??"

Heart pounding I slammed the window shut. He caught me staring! Well this was going to be awkward!

My cheeks burnt as the doorbell rang. "Don't just stand there, Cherry! It's pouring outside, go and let the poor guy in!"

Oh kill me now! I thought. The doorbell rang again. I could just imagine Mr Hot Doctor soaking wet and irritated. I walked faster. And froze. Mr Hot Doctor soaking wet and irritated? Uh yes please!! 🔥🔥 👄👄😲

I strolled to the kitchen as the doorbell rang again and again. He sounded really pissed off. I laughed softly to myself as I stuffed my face with leftover pizza from the fridge. "Mmmm! C'est delicieux!

"CHERRY!" Mum roared, I swallowed half a pizza and started choking. "OPEN THE GODDAMN DOOR, NOW!!!"

Tears streaming down my face I ran to the door and threw it open. "Come- in," I wheezed, running up the stairs and out of sight. I knew it was being rude but I was having a bit of a midlife crisis.

I slammed the bathroom door shut and stared at my appearance in the mirror. My eyes were red like the fucking Volturi. I stared at my gigantic nose. Oh my God why was I so ugly? Puberty where you at bruh??

I washed my face and dragged a brush through my long black hair. My idol was Amy Lee from Evanescence, so I made sure to have hair exactly like hers like the creep I am.

After applying a dallop of lipgloss I opened the door, ran back down the stairs and felt my ovaries explode. The hottest guy in the fucking universe was staring up at me. Aaand so was my mother dearest. I clutched the bannister for support.

"I think you owe Doctor Silas an apology don't you?" She glared at me.

Mum pls. Looking at Doctor Silas dripping wet and irritated I found I wasn't sorry at all. "I'm real sorry." I said anyway.

Doctor Silas stared at me, unsmiling. "It's quite alright."

FUUUUUUUCK he was mad. I gave him a small awkward smile which he didn't return.

A bad feeling blossomed inside me.

"Why do you look so scared?" He stepped closer. "I'm not going to kill you or anything."
