Alex POV
I was frozen with fear. I tried to move but my muscles wouldn't move. I looked at her and she was.....beautiful. Her long red hair fell perfectly on her flawless smooth light skin. I was snapped out of my thoughts when she pulled out a long kitchen knife.
I moved kept stepping back until my back hit my wall. She took a step closer and raised her knife. A million thoughts ran through my head until I thought it must've been one of Dans friends to get back at me for not showing up. "H-hey look I'm s-sorry for not showing up after school! Tell Dan that please!" I said as she was stepping closer. She had a confused look on her face as she tilted her head. "Who's Dan?" She said. Just then I felt myself regain control over my body. I turned and ran away, I ran straight into the wall and fell over with a loud thud. Just then that girl let out a giggle, then she walked over to me pinning me to the ground and holding her knife up over my chest. She must've saw the look on my face cause she said "It will be fine, it will only hurt a little."
"Like that helps." I said sarcastically.
Just then I heard loud footsteps and I'll guess she did to cause she ran into my closet. 'Oh great now I have to deal with him.' I thought as I got up and he ran into my room.
"THERE YOU ARE YOU LITTLE SHIT" he yelled. I just stood there frozen.
"GUESS WHAT? I GOT A CALL FROM THE SCHOOL AND THEY TOLD ME YOU SKIPPED MOST OF YOUR AFTERNOON CLASSES!"
"Dad calm down, your drunk." I said as I took a step backward.
"SHUT UP. I TOLD YOU IF YOU EVER SKIPPED SCHOOL YOU WOULD REGRET IT!" He said as he took a step forward and grabbed my collar pulled me towards him "nobody will ever love you freak, nobody will ever help you, and nobody will ever be friends with you!" He yelled lowering his tone. Out one the blue he punched me on my left cheek sending me flying away, hitting the ground hard.
Clockwork POV
I stood there frozen inside the closet as I watched this man beat the boy up. A flood of memories came rushing through my head, my abusive dad, the pain, what he did to mom.
I felt a tear run down my cheek and quickly wiped it away.
I felt bad for him, I wanted to intervene but I couldn't bring myself to move. That boy, I looked at him and we met eyes, he was...cute.
No! I can't think like that! Bad Clockwork! But I just kept starring into his eyes, they were deep light blue but full of fear. I couldn't kill him. I've been watching him for awhile and seeing what happens to him at school I just can't kill him.
I can relate to him.
Alex POV
"NOW YOU BETTER GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER BOY! Or else it will be worse!" He yelled walking out of my room and slamming the door.
"Agh the pain.." I whispered
I slowly got up and sat on my bed. Slowly I felt tears form in my eyes, I tried to stop them by they just kept coming. "Why me?" "Why am I still here?" "Why can't I just di-l" I said as I slowly looked up to the closet. There she was her knife in her pocket. I looked at her, but she had a sympathetic look on her face.
"Just kill me." I said
She looked taken back by my words.
"Please just kill me!" I yelled
She took a step closer then another and another, I closed my eyes. Then instead of feeling a knife through my chest, I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"I can't kill you." She said softly. I looked up at her in confusion, she must've seen it cause she said "Because I've been watching you and I just can't."
"Why?"
"Cause after watching you I've realized how much I can relate to you." She said. I couldn't reply, a killer can relate to me? How? I must've spoken my thoughts cause she responded. "I grew up in a very abusive home, and things.." she sighed and said "Ended wrong."
I couldn't help but feel bad for her.
"I'm sorry." I said
"It's fine.." she told me as she sat by me. I looked at my hands and arms. "Crap." I said quietly. She heard so she took my arm and examined it. Her eyes full of sadness. "I can help with this. Here" she said grabbing bandages out of her pocket and wrapped them around my arms.
"Thanks." I said
"Your welcome. Anyway what's your name?" She asked
I paused, should I tell her my name?
"Alex." I told her holding out a hand.
"I'm Clockwork." She said shaking my hand. 'Clockwork? Odd name but she's a killer so can't blame her.'
"How old are ya!" She said happily
"16. You?" I said
"16 too." She said with a smile on her face. I smiled back. We talked all night about everything and anything until she had to leave. "Hey." She said looking at me seriously. "Yes?" I ask. "If those boys or your, dad mess with you again tell me I'll make sure they won't do it ever." She looked at me.
"Ok. But Clockwork?" I asked "Yes?" She said. "Could you teach me how to fight?" I asked. She looked at me weirdly ad then a smile crept on her face knowing what I was talking about. "Sure meet me at the back of the school after school." She said with a cheery voice as she jumped down the window.
'She's really something.' I I thought walking to the window and closing it.
I went over to my bed and later there, thinking about her. 'She's so cute' I thought as I fell asleep.
