Running through the dark woods, running from... from myself; i stumble and fall, crying out. I see a movement in the shadows...oh no. Have they caught up with me? No...it's him the boy he seems to be my age even with the mask but his eyes are wise beyond his years.."hey!" I call out to him about to ask his name-"CASSIE! Wake up! How many times do i have to tell you?? The police are here and they want to speak with you. Theres been another murder."
"Ugh mother so what?" No way they already suspect me i mean yea my dad is a famous killer and i have killed before but really?? "Cassie, why do you have to be so much like your father??"
I stare into the eyes of the woman that birthed but never raised me until my dad died in an accident. "Because, there is no way in hell i would ever want to be like you."
I go downstairs and pull my sobbing act "Oh officers how could I ever?? After my father died....(more fake crying)...oh god im so sorry i must look like such a mess b-but everytime i hear theres been a murder i think of my father and remember hes d-d"
The officers cringe they hate seeing girls cry "Miss we're very sorry to upset you we made a mistake, now if you will excuse us we better go"
Haha they made a pretty quick exit, wiping off the tears i went into my room and changed into my black skinnys and a black tank. "Mother im going out!"
"At this time of ni-" i cut her off by slamming the door as i left going out into the dark woods to find my mysterious masked friend...
Darting quickly looking behind my back every ten minutes i saw a slight movement, "Hey! You there!" The masked one (as i would call him) looked my way but said nothing. "Why the mask?" He responded, his voice bringing pleasant chills down my spine. "I take off the mask for no one and whomever sees it it will be the last thing they see." I smirked but god i was dying to rip off that mask..."So whats your name mask boy?" " You may call me Shadow" oh the perfect irony...he asked for my name, i thought about saying something else since he obviously didnt recognize me for being the daughter of a famous serial killer. "The name's Cassie" and with that i smiled and left. I finally had the name of mask boy...or well, Shadow...
The next night i went out again to find him when i heard a faint snap from behind i turned around and there he was. Mask and all, "so you want to see what is under the mask?" God yes i thought.. "show me" he took off his mask and oh what beauty he hid under there i asked him why he dared to hide such thing. And then i kissed him he held me close and i knew that i had fallen in love hes perfectly unperfect hes gorgeous hes literally what ive always dreamed of..oh my sweet..where have you been all my life???
