The Man with no face

Chapter 17

FLASHBACK...

Oliver ran up the pathway before banging through the front door and stumbling up the stairs towards the main bedroom. He pulls open the cabinet draws, rummaging through everything inside as fast as he possibly could.

"Where the fuck has it gone" he panicked to himself.

WHACK WHACH WHACK

SQUELCH 

Oliver tried to open his eyes as best as he could while enjoying the breeze against his sticky face. He looked up and all he could make out was Sarah crying and shouting at him how sorry she was.

His head felt fuzzy and his face was burning after Sarah pulled the mask from his glued cheeks.

His heart was racing and thoughts starting to frantically race through his mind, he hadn't managed to find what he needed before Sarah rudely interrupted him.

Sarah was laying on Oliver still crying to herself, she kept telling him how sorry she was over and over again... she had just set her eyes on the mess the masked killer had left inside of his mouth.

"She can not find out this is not real, suck it up Oliver" Olivers mind was full of worry and anxiety.

DING DING 

Oliver quickly turned his mobile onto silent mode before Sarah noticed his secret little burner phone.

"She wouldn't notice anyway! She is to busy trying to figure out what I know about this! I can't let her find out the truth" Oliver could feel his chest starting to tighten and his breathing getting more rapid. He felt as though he was about to have a heart attack!

With the panic starting to set in Oliver hung his head down as low as he could to avoid any eye contact with Sarah. He took this opportunity to have a sneak look at the vibrating mobile hiding inside of his jacket.

"GET HER OUT OF THAT ROOM BEFORE MORNING ARRIVES, ELSE YOUR LITTLE SECRET WILL BECOME SHARED! DONT FUCK THIS UP"

Oliver sighed, he knew what he needed to do and it wasn't going to be easy. He couldn't risk Sarah finding out the truth else she would never let him see Melody again!

He pulls a small white cloth from his inside pocket, He had smothered it in Chloroform earlier on before Sarah arrived, he was hoping to catch the masked man and use it on him.

He looks up to see if Sarah was still watching him, she hadn't taken her eyes off him since the masked killer had shouted for Olivers help. 

He took a deep inhale before lunging towards Sarah, throwing one arm around her throat he tackles her to the ground while covering her mouth with the white cloth. It didn't take long for it to effect Sarahs ability to fight back and her body slowly started to sink.

As Oliver gently lay Sarahs head down he stared into her glazed over eyes... as they started to close he leant down to whisper softly into her ear...

"I'm sorry, Goodnight my sweetheart, Rest easy"
