Play Thing [Coraline+Insane!Reader]

5 I'll Follow You 5

Coraline POV

I saw the car pull up from the driveway. Looking at it I committed to telling my parents what happened yesterday. What happened with Y/N in the forest, about them being in our house, about them pointing that knife thing at me!

I pulled on my shirt to see the hole they made. Wybie had pointed it out when he dropped me home yesterday. The only thing that ticked me off was the way he said it. I can still hear his idiocy now.

-

'Sweet look what he/she did your shirt !'

'No-No. Almost being killed isn't cool. Telling a stranger my address ISN'T COOL !'

-

He is so stupid, I can't believe him, I get a weapon pointed at me and the first thing he does is say where I live.

Closing the blinds to the window, I opened the door for my parents to come in. They were talking before they came in and only gave me a 'Thank you' when passing.

"He's bringing his kid over too!?"

"Charlie, He has to-"

"Mom, Dad, Yesterday while me and Wybie were out-"

My dad looked paranoid, I mean he always looked paranoid but he started pacing around Mom with a face of fear. I just followed around them like a baby duck. My mom tried comforting him in her own snarky way.

"You got the promotion this is apart of your job now. If you can handle the heat get out of the kitchen."

She smiled patting pulling him to kiss him on the cheek. I stuck my tongue out and that's when she decided I existed.

"Speaking of the kitchen, Coraline you hungry or something."

I thought about it but I felt I needed to speak my mind or else I'll get distracted.

"No, Mom when I was out with Wybie there was this person. They told me that they know what the inside of our house looks like, even The Little Door !"

She looked at me. She pointed her finger to her chin and lowered a brow. She started Brewing up a coffee and fixing her neck brace while she spoke.

"Coraline, they probably lived here before. Lots of people have lived here over the years. Keep an eye on the door we are having clients over."

I wanted to tell her what Wybie told me a year ago. That families with children didn't really live here because of the other mother.

Wybie told me that his grandma was actually trying to avoid people with kids and their offers. But if my mom and dad didn't remember being stuck in the snow globe I don't think they're going to believe me when if I told them.

It wasn't even like she was listening now! I mean they said that they haven't been inside our house, but that's an obvious lie.

Reluctantly I kept an eye on the door like my mom had told me to. She told me that we were having guests and I could just see my dad getting paranoid.

He wasn't usually like this so it leads me to think that he's nervous about his new promotion, or is nervous by the people he's about to meet.
Moreover the latter option because he was fine with the promotion when he first got it, and even if he wasn't THIS paranoid.

I was so lost in thought that I didn't realize the doorknob had been moving, and someone was knocking from the other side. I hurry to open the door and not wanting to make them wait any longer.
