His Little Marionette (The Puppeteer x Reader)

Chapter 11: Back To A Normal Life Hopefully

Y/N's POV

I checked the time to see that it was 1:10AM. I decided to try to go back to sleep. There was nothing else I could really do. What do I do about this? Should I tell someone?

By the time 5AM rolled around I was still awake. I couldn't sleep. How could I sleep after something like that? I was lost in thought the entire time I was trying to go back to sleep. I just decided to get an early start to my day.

My first class isn't for another four hours. I can take my sweet time getting ready. I took a shower and chose out my clothes for the day. I decided to wear blue jeans and a shirt of my favorite band/singer. I then proceeded to get ready.

After I was done getting ready, I checked the time. It was 7:20AM. I still had a good amount of time before class. Maybe I could actually make myself some breakfast this morning. Most of the time I wake up too late for me to make any sort of breakfast.

I made myself some eggs, bacon, and toast. I practically inhaled my food. I've got to hand it to myself, I'm good at making food when I try. I checked the time once again. It was 8:10AM.

I decided to make sure I have all of my homework done for my classes this week. I had it all done. I don't need to pull anymore all-nighters this week at least. I checked the time again to see that it was 8:35AM. I guess it wouldn't hurt to go to class early today.

I drove to the college and went into the classroom. I made it to class a good 15 minutes early. There were only 3 other students in the room. The classroom seemed so empty. I sat down in my usual spot and put on a pair of headphones to listen to music.

After about 10 minutes, everyone started to come in and find their spots. Alicia came up and sat down by me. She turned and looked at me. "You look a bit better today, but you still look a bit tired. Are you sure you're ok?"

"I'm fine. Just had a tough time sleeping last night." I responded.

"I still feel like something is wrong. Y/N, you can tell me anything. Are you sure you are ok?" Alicia asked.

I thought about telling her about The Puppeteer, but I don't think she would believe me. Besides, I already told her that I thought that the previous experience was just a nightmare. "I'm fine. I've just had a hard time sleeping lately, that's all." I told her.

"Ok. Only if you're sure you're ok. Tell me if you need anything, ok?"

"Ok." Then class started.

After all of my classes that day I went back to my apartment. I had the day off of work, so I had some free time. I decided to turn on the TV to see what was on. Nothing was on, so I turned on the news. There hadn't been any murders the past couple of days.

I got to thinking, was The Puppeteer the one doing all of the killings? He has visited me the last couple of nights, and those nights are the nights where no murders occurred. I knew that he was probably the killer. I began to be thankful that he hasn't killed me. I just hope that he never he never does.

After watching the news, I checked the time. 5:40PM. I decided to call Alicia to see if she could come over for a bit. She asked if she could bring her roommate, Bella, with. I was fine with it, and I told her that I would probably order pizza for all of us.

After I called her, I called and ordered a large pizza for all of us to share. They said it would be done in 20 minutes. 10 minutes later, Alicia and Bella came in. I told them I had to pick up the pizza and to make themselves at home. I then left to get the pizza.

After picking up the pizza, I came back to my apartment. The second I came in, they both rushed to me and grabbed the pizza. Needless to say, we devoured the pizza. I noticed that it was dark outside and checked the time. 7:20PM.

I knew that Alicia and Bella should get back to their dorm. They left and I was left alone in my apartment. I was pretty tired, and it wasn't too hard to imagine why. I haven't had a lot of sleep these past couple of nights. I decided to go to bed early that night and get some well needed sleep.
