Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

Chapter 6

"Hi baby. Remember me?" She asked, her fingers dragging down my chest. I smacked her hand off of me and stared at her. Why in the hell is she back?

"What the fuck are you doing here?" I growled. If I wasn't in a public hallway I'd grab her by her neck and slam her up against the lockers. In a non sexual way of course. 

I watched a playful smirk form on her lips. Seeing her again wasn't a good sign at all. She was back for a reason. A reason I was going to find out about. She'd nothing but a heartless, brutal killer. She'll kill anyone or anything that get in her way. I've seen her do it many times before.

"I came to see you. To repair the way things ended between us. Isn't obvious?" She pouted and pulled my shirt and brought me closer to her. I felt my breathing increase due to anger. 

"Bullshit. I can tell a liar from a mile away, and one is standing right in front of me." Her playful smile disappeared right away when she finally realized I wasn't going to play this stupid game of hers. She sighed loudly and rolled her eyes. She pushed me away and stood in front of me. 

"I'm here for the girl Liam. Thought you were smarter than that. But I guess not, probably the reason why you're in high school again hmm? Unless you think you actually have a chance with little miss innocent out there." She said, giving her attention to Scotts truck outside where the both of them were. 

"You're going to have to go through me in order to get to her." I told her. She scoffed. 

"That's pretty damn easy if you ask me." I knitted my eyebrows together and watched as she took out a match, lit it on fire and threw it into a trash can next to her. With in seconds it went into flames. I looked around and there weren't many kids in the hallway, probably because they were in the cafeteria or outside eating lunch. She smiled at me and pulled the fire alarm. What in the hell was she getting at here?

"Wow, you pulled the fire alarm, how is any of that your way of-"

My vision was blurry and I didn't exactly know where I was at. Or what happened right at this moment. I looked up and noticed I was on the floor of the same hallway I had been in earlier. I groaned and pushed myself up. Katherine snapped my neck. What a bitch. I looked at the trash can that she had lit on fire, and it was melted. 

"Yeah, I saw this guy passed out on my way out, but he was to heavy. He probably needs help!" I heard someone say from around the corner. I wasn't about to get caught, so with the speed I had I quickly ran out of the school and out into the parking lot. I searched everywhere for Scotty's truck. I couldn't find it anywhere. Panic began to rise in me. Who knew what Katherine needed Ally for. She was supposed to be protected by me and I couldn't manage to do that. Fuck.

I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and quickly dialed Allisons number. It just kept ringing, and ringing, and-

"Hello? Liam, Liam where are you?" I heard her soft voice say. The breath I had been holding in was released. I smiled and felt my body relax.

"Oh it's great to hear your voice." I sighed happily.

"Uh, okay. Anyways, I'm outside listening to a lecture about who set the trash can on fire and I don't see you anywhere and Scotty went home cause he didn't have any classes. So I'm all alone and there's this girl who kind of seems suspicious and won't stop starring at me. I bumped into her on my way to class earlier and she knew who I was. But I have no idea who she is. So do you think you can get out by the football field as quick as possible?" She asked me. 

"Yeah. Yeah I'll be out there in a minute." I hung up and quickly ran out towards the football field. There was so many people out there I couldn't seem to find her anywhere. I smiled at the principle as I tried to push my way through people. I bumped into Hannah on my way.
