No, please no, I continued saying in my heard as my breathing became ragged and not doable now

Breathe, Shannon. It's going to be okay, my fist clutched to jeans which I saw impossible

Even with the moonlight reflecting into the room, that wasn't a form of support at all

"What are you doing? Don't tell me, are you scared of the dark?" I heard Aiden ask with mocking laughter in his voice

I think he went to check the switch or something

"Wow, this is something new. Shannon, afraid of the common ...." he stopped

"Shannon" he called, the mocking laughter was replaced with caution

"Shannon"

"Shannon, are you okay?"  Now, it was concern

"What's wrong?"

Somewhere deep, I knew he meant well, but, at that moment, I couldn't bring myself to believe it. The only thing that came to my mind, and vision was him coming close to me

"Don't come near me" I said 

I must move, I told myself. I didn't even know the direction I was going, I was just moving, but I made sure my back was glued to the lockers

"Shannon"

"Now come on dear, don't be a naughty one" he said

My breathing became more ragged 

"Get away" 

"Shannon, calm down. Breathe"

He smiled mischievously 

"No, can't do" he said still with that sick smile

"Don't you dear come near me. Go away"

"Focus. Focus and breathe"

"Don't make it seem harder than it is. You will soon start enjoying it, just don't resist"

"Go away"

"Focus"

He came closer

"Go away!"

"Breathe"

He came closer. His smile made it worse

"Go away!!"

"Snap out of whatever you're in"

I was so scared, but he kept coming closer

"Go away!!!" I shouted and I hit his head, hard, with whatever my hand grabbed

Just then, the lights came back but, it still took me some time to catch and organize my breathing from wherever it went. When I became a little better, my mind registered what I saw, and my eyes widened, followed by my hand freeing the hold of whatever was in it

"Aiden!!" I screamed

Groaning, he was on the floor, holding his head as blood spill out from it

"Oh, my goodness" I covered my hands with my mouth

What in the world happened? Did I do this? What have I just done?

I apologize to him and was still apologizing when, suddenly, everything went black

Fortunately for her, I managed to catch her head before it made severe impact with the floor
