'I am the lion, and you are the mouse.'

Ha, at least she tried.

I roll my eyes at the note for probably the twentieth time in the past hour. I was up in my room trying to figure out how to put an end to these notes. Shawn left earlier, and it's around three in the morning.

We don't have school again tomorrow, what a surprise, but I was sure we'd have school Thursday. Since we didn't have school Monday, Tuesday, and today since it's basically already Wednesday, I say we should get the whole week off.

"Andy..." I hear Anna's small voice whine from across the room and I jump. I thought she was asleep. "Please turn the light off and go to sleep." she mumbles sleepily.

I sigh, gathering all of my things and shutting the light off before leaving the room. As I'm walking downstairs I try not to make a single noise, tiptoeing my way into the kitchen and flicking the light on.

I lay out all of my stuff. The two notes I have received, a notebook, my phone, and a half eaten fiber bar I was eating.

"It has to be Bella." I whisper to myself just before the light flicks off suddenly.

I gasp, flipping my head around to see who was there, but it was no use since it was pitch black as of now. "What the fuck, turn the light back on!" I whisper/shout into the dark.

Oh my god, it's Bella. What if she kills
me? She is a psycho, she would probably kill me.

I suck in a breath as the light switches back on and my whole body relaxes at the sight of my parents.

"Surprise!" they smile at me. I jump up from my seat and hug them both tightly.

"I missed you guys." I breathe into their bodies that I am tightly embraced in.

"You working on something?" Mom asks as she peers over me to look at my stuff on the table.

I jump back to the table and hide the notes with my body. "Oh, it's nothing."

She only raises an eyebrow, opening her mouth to say something but my dad cuts her off. "We better get some sleep, it was a long flight?"

"Wait, so your flight actually didn't get delayed?" I ask.

My father shakes his head from side to side. "Nope, we wanted to surprise you all."

"How was the trip?" I ask, wide awake but they both looked exhausted.

"Honey, we're really tired. We'll tell you all about the trip tomorrow. Goodnight." they both kiss my head and give me a tired smile before disappearing to their room.

When I go back to examining everything I have laid out, I decide to send a text to Bella. I'm not even hesitant about it in one bit. I am one hundred percent certain that Bella is behind this.

To- Bella: do you even KNOW the story of the lion and the mouse?!

To- Bella: you're not very good at this pretty little liars shit lol

To- Bella: if u wanna be some creepy psycho ex girlfriend you need to do a better job

To- Bella: i mean seriously ur like 18 or 19 or 45 or something & you're messing with a 15 year old???? like what?????

I stopped spam-texting after that. I know I should probably take this more serious than I am, but I couldn't help but find it hysterical.

Bella didn't text me back. She was probably asleep; I forgot to remember that it was almost 4 AM.

I went to sleep. By "went to sleep" I mean I tossed and turned until about six in the morning with thoughts running around my head until I finally dozed off.

When I woke up around two in the afternoon, my body felt weak and my eyes could barely open at first. I went into the bathroom and splashed cold water on my face, brushing my teeth before making my way downstairs.

My house was completely silent besides my footsteps, so the first thing I did was check the kitchen counter for a note from my parents. They usually left something when they all left me here alone and went out somewhere.

Sure enough, there was a lined piece of paper lying on the counter for me.

Andrea

We all went out to eat since we are finally back home. I was going to wake you, but you were up pretty late last night and you needed your sleep. We will bring you back chicken strips.

love Mom

I checked my phone after that. Two texts from Shawn and one text from a blocked number.

Shawn: I know you're not awake yet but hello goodmorning *smiley face
emoji*

Shawn: Ok seriously why do you sleep so late

I texted him back a "goodmorning" and checked my other text.

Unknown number: If you are so certain you know who I am, then why don't we meet up tonight?

I still am finding this funny. Of course I can't meet up with this person. For one, I am only fifteen so I cannot drive myself anywhere. Yeah, I am just gonna have my mom drop me off to meet my stalker. (Sarcasm)

Second, there is no need to meet up with this person since I already know it's Bella and she won't dare try to hurt me. I don't think so anyway. What harm could a girl like her do?

But then again, I could make Shawn drive me and I could prove to him that it is Bella.
