Short Story #3

When Keira was 16, she had her first date. And it was definitely not a first date that any teenage girl would die for. The boy she went on the date with was called Leon. He was clingy and so over-the-top and thought he was the most amazing guy in the world. He kept on telling Keira that he loved her every 2 minutes. Keira was so annoyed and uncomfortable that she left while he went to the toilets. Leon was heart-broken. To show her that he still wanted her, he sent her a load of romantic text messages. She read them all but never replied to them. Leon got angry - really angry. The last message he sent her was:
 I love you, Keira. Some day, I'm gonna get you.

Keira got really freaked out and moved away. She wanted to forget him so she moved to another college. She met a boy called Isaac, and they both fell in love. They got married 5 years later and they were happy. Keira became pregnant soon after. They both lived normal lives and were perfectly happy.

But then she went into labour. They wanted the gender of the baby to be a complete surprise so the doctors didn't tell the couple what it was. While Keira was in labour, she received a phone call. She thought it was Isaac because it was around the time he left work. She picked it up. 

"He-Hello?" she breathed.

"I've got you now..." said the mysterious voice on the other side.

"Oh no! Leon pl-please! I'm h-happy now! D-Don't ruin my life,  I B-BEG YOU!" Keira pleaded.

Leon hung up. Keira panicked. Just at that moment a doctor walking in and dismissed the nurses. He grabbed the nearest pillow and strangled Keira to death. The last this Keira saw before she died was Leon, leaving the room holding her baby.
