The prisoner

ChApTeR ThReE-The first meeting

"Jane, keep calm, everything will be alright." he said to me.

Those were the last words I could hear in that moment. It happened just like I said. That demon came to New York last night. I swear I would start sceaming and moving round and round if I weren't there with Connor. I had to shank my mom when I went home...-oh no!- I said in my mind. Suddenly I said:

"Connor, my parents! Our house is in that section of the city!"

"Jane, please don't panic...." he said to me.

"I have to go there now!"

He held my hand tightly and he said:

"No, Jane, everything's alright, you need to stay here..."

I hitched my hand and went straight to the door:

"No I need to go there right now Connor!" I said.

I left his house and went straight to my house. I was running on the road thinking about what could I do. i hoped my parents are alright and that demon wasn't at my house. -It's all my fault!- I said in my mind. I entered in my garden and run through my house. I saw my mom in the kitchen. She looked horrible: her clothes were torn and burned, her skin was dirty. I went straight to her and I hugged her.

"Mom, what happened here? Please tell me you are alright!" I said to her.

"Jane, I don't have time to explain now but you need to pay attention. You need to get out of here. And I'm sorry I didn't believe you. It's true! T demon is...WATCH OUT!

But it was too late. I was hit with a bottle of glass so quick that I couldn't breathe. I heard my mom screaming:

"Why? Why here?! Not my Jane!

............................................................................................................................................................

Suddenly I opened my eyes buc I couldn't see anything. I only heard my parents's voices screaming:

"Jane, help us! Jane do something! Jane save us! Please! Jane wake up!

I suddenly realised I was tight on a wall. my house was burning with big flames. I saw my parents tight on the other wall with big bloody wounds. Suddenly I saw him. This wasn't a joke, now I absolutely saw him. It was the same demon I saw in the detention room two days ago. The same voice, the same mischevous red eyes. He was dressed all in black and he had a black perfect hair. I said slowly:

"It's...it's you...."

He came next to my parents, holfing a huge knife. I started to struggle and scream:

"Why?! Why my family?! Let them go you stupid monster. You're a fucking demon, no more else! Leave us in peace!"

"Watch your words honey..." he said.

His voice was thick and dark. I looked into his eyes and I saw the word "madness". I struggeled because I wanted to stop tht beast from killing my parents.

"You're not a king, stupid, you're a fuckin' beast and I swear I'd kill you if you won't t them go!"

And I made a huge mistake. His eyes turned lght red aand he got angry. Went straight to my parents and in half of a second he cut their heads. Their bodies fell on the ground and blood started to stream everywhere in front of me.

"Nooooo! Not my parents! Nooo!" I cried and I fell on the floor.

I took a gun with silver bullets and I shouted him in his arm. He started to scream and he run away. I called Connor and in three minutes he was next to me. I was lied on the floor screaming and crying. He lied next to me and pulled me next to his chest. I couldn't stop crying. I guhhed him and I screamed:

"They're dead! Connor, I'm an orphan! He killed my parents! Why them?! Why them?!"

"Jane, you're not orphan...you have me either. I swear I'll protect you..."

"You didn't believe me! Noone did! Only Jamie did! Maybe we could do something but now it's too late! They're dead!"

He hugged me again, holding me next to his chest. I closed my eyes and I said:

"Connor please help me..."

"Shh, evrything will be alright...I promise." he whispered then he kissed my head. "You'll stay at me and I won't let you alone anymore...you'll be alright..."

We stood up and left the house. In that night I couldn't sleep and I didn't let Connor either. We stayed all night hugging each other. For me the next morning was like a big disaster. When I got up I had a terrible headake and I couldn't talk very well because of the image with my parents's heads in a sea of blood in front of me. That day me and Connor didn't go to school and we told Jamie to explain that terrible situation to our teachers. When school was over Jamie came at Connor's house. He opened the door and she came next to me. She lied on the floor and put her arm on my shoulder:

"He is real, isn't he?" she said.

I closed my eyes and after a few seconds I reopened them and she undestood I meant "yes". Connor came next to me and looked at Jamie:

"Jamie' it isn'g necessary to talk about this right now..." he said.

"No, it's ok..." I whispered. "But it's too hard to accept. All I have right now are you..."

I hugged them both then I went into his room. They didn't talk for a few minutes then Connor said:

"She's destroyed..."

"No, really, Sherlock." said Jamie. "C'mon, what are you waiting for? Go and calm her!"

She hit him friendly. Connor looked at her and he saw she was ry serious.

"What? I tried everything but even with me here with her she isn't happy." he said

"I don't cre what you did or what you can do, go there and calm her, make her happy. Damn it, Connor, you're her boyfriend!"

"Whoa, you want me to have sex with her or what?!" he said.

He was absolutely amased of w'hat Jamie said to him. But this wasn't all.

"Connor, let me expin something to you. Jane's parents were killed yesterday. All she has right now is us...nevermind, let me, all she has now is you. If you will die or something else she will kill herself. Right now she loves you more than anyone else." she continued.

"I know but...ok I'll try." he finally said.

He stood up and he went into my room. I was liing on the bed and looking at him.

"What?" I asked him surprized.

"Do you want to be happy?" He asked.

"Sorry...what? Yes but what?"

"Jane, jusst answer, do you want to be hppy?"

I closed my eyes and without openinf them I said "yes". Suddenly I felt his body on my body, chest to chest, skin to skin. He pulled my clothes away and I torned his shirt gain-I know, I have a problem with torning Connor's clothes-. And the night passed. Next morning I realised Jamie slept in our house. I found her liing on the sofa in the living room. She woke up and saw me sitting next to her on the floor. She looked curious at me then she asked:

"Are you a little bit ok?"

I hugged her tightly and I whispered "thank you". She smiled and kissed my head. Thanks Connor and Jamie I'm now better than yesterday. They're the best friends someone could have.
