I knew it was time for me to leave. But I needed to exit in a way that wasn't offensive. I didn't know how he'd respond if I tried to leave too soon.
"You didn't answer my question." he grunted as he grabbed the back of my hair so tightly I could feel the roots lifting.
"Kevin! Kevin, calm down! You're drunk, Sweetie. Let my hair go please. I will answer any question you have."
My heart was beating louder than a helicopter about to land. I knew not to scream, I felt it would only excite him more. I needed to de-escalate things.
He let go of my hair and gave me a crooked smile. "I'm just playing around Jessie, lighten up," he said and started to laugh and tickle me.
I hated being ticked.
*******
A few years after high school, and Jessie still had no idea of what to do with her life. She was living in a cramped apartment, working a dead-end job, and her boyfriend was m.i.a.
Plagued by restlessness, she ventures out for a solo night on the town that ends with a violent murder. Now, as she tries to pull herself together, she can't shake the feeling that someone or something is following her.

Or along the way, will they somehow fall in love without trying to? ~ I say, "I'm sorry..." as my breathing is uneasy. "Don't be," he bends down to help pick up the mixture of books and papers and coffee I just spilt everywhere. "Are you okay? You seem disturbed." He lays his hand on mine and 8 can't help but look up, "Umm, to be honest, no, but that's not any of your business. Sorry again." I break the eye contact. "It can be if someone is trying to hurt you." He stops me again. "H- How did you..." I stop and am now looking him dead in the eye. "This is gonna sound creepy, but I've been watching you." He looks panicked, "Not in a creepy way though!" "What?" I keep eye contact. "I've just been observing you. That sounds awful." He looks and sounds even more panicked than before, "I mean, I think you're beautiful and I just didn't know how to approach you. I tend to be socially awkward with girls I have an interest in and I didn't want to scare you off..." He trails off, "But when I see you around, my gaze gravitates towards you," he sighs, "I sound like a total creep. I'm sorry." He pauses, "I've noticed you've been looking over your shoulder a lot and are in a rush in the halls. Almost like you're running away from something..." His eyes meet mine and I can tell he's being genuine, "I can help you." he says sympathetically. I nod and whisper, "He's always knows where I am and always knows my next move."Complete

Broken Beyond Repair
I squeezed my way through the abundant number of people, trying to get to the exit. I bumped into a lot of shoulders, until I found an opening. As soon as the door was in my sight, I heard Jessie calling out my name. Her voice grabbed my attention, and I briskly turned around. I knocked right into a tall figure, causing me to lose my balance and fall. All the people dancing blocked my vision so I couldn't grab onto anything to prevent myself from falling. My arms met the hardwood floor as I tried to catch myself, sending a shock of pain through my arms. "Forgive me ma'am." Someone said while extending an arm down to me. "It's fine. No harm was-" ✰ Status: FInished NOTE*** This story contains mental illness and suicidal themes.

New Girl
"You dropped this." I heard a husky voice say. I turned around to look at what I dropped and realized it was my schedule. I gasped. Damn, I would have been fucked if I'd lost it. I guess I didn't put it in my bag... I looked up to thank him, but ended up not being able to find my voice. He's really attractive. Drop dead gorgeous attractive. Hot. He has brown hair that is spiked up in a messy way and shiny chocolate brown eyes that are hard not to stare at. His jawline was firm and he is extremely tall compared to my 5'3" height; he seems like he's 6'1". He looks in good shape -- the white shirt he was wearing showed off his broad muscular chest. He wore a leather-mans jacket from the school over the t-shirt, with black denim jeans, and converse. I swallowed. I snapped out of it and took the paper forcing myself to say "thanks." However, he walked away before I even finished. OK... he obviously isn't interested in the 'new girl' like all the other students are. I can't help but feel a bit disappointed. Out of all the guys that have hit on me in school today he is the only one that has caught my eye -- bad news is that he didn't even bother. "You know him? I'm surprised the cheer-bitch hasn't threatened you yet." Jessica said, her face showing shock. "Um, no I don't know him... and cheer-bitch?" I frowned confused. "She's his ex-girlfriend, but considering she has such a small brain that is a size of a peanut, she won't leave him alone. I mean like seriously, EX; has she not heard of that quote, 'Thanks for the EXperience, Our time has EXpired, now EXit my life.' She is one clueless bimbo. Then again who would leave him alone he is S-E-X-Y!" I laughed. "I am going to love being your friend." I said while I looked back to where he had headed a while ago, but I no longer saw him. I sighed disappointed.Complete
Run Away
I never thought he would do this. What happened to him? Goddammit, this is bullshit. I was stalked by my own best friend! This is a nightmare, even worse than nightmare. I'm so fucking stressed! "Surprise, babe!" he evil-smiled. "Tell me why are you doing this to me?!" I asked. "I see the future. Your future. I see you dating that dickhead. I tried to stop you but I have to act normal so you won't find out that I'm the creepy stranger you talked about and you won't know that I like you, my plan was a little bit messed up since you dated him. I failed to stop you. But now that I have both of you here, I can kill you easily," he explained. Did he just said "both of you"? Does that mean he kidnapped Austin? He's so messed up. I hate him. We've been best friends for 5 fucking years and now he's doing this to me? I swear he's mentally ill now. Ugh. "What do you mean both of us?" I asked. "Oh Claire, why don't you understand it? Didn't you saw anyone at the library? The place where Austin asked you to be his girlfriend?" he said. "No, I didn't go there," I said. "Well, let's take a look now, shall we?" he evil-smiled. ******** Hi guys, so this is my first story here. I don't think I'm a good writer so I apologize if this story doesn't make any sense or sounds really weird. At least I tried.Complete
