It had been two days since you had given the note to Blake.

Two days was enough time for him to read the note and comprehend what it means right? Were you to forward? Should you call him? These were all questions you had no answer for.

After thinking about Blake's question you had your answer. You were in love with Blake.

The only problem with you loving Blake is, how would you tell him? There were so many ways and so many different options you could choose from.

You could go for the 'Hey, I love you,' or the 'Blake, I can't get you out of my mind. I'm in love with you.'

Five minutes later the nurse who lied to you days before was in your room. Now, that you looked at her she looked familiar.

Betty Sue, her name tag read. Betty Sue was a lady your dad had an affair with four years ago. She used to beat you everyday before your dad got home for work.

Your mom was in France. She never found out about the affair, dad paid Betty to keep her mouth shut.

Now, here she was helping you down the steps.

"I remember you," she hissed.

A chill ran down your spine. Her voice always made you feel terrified.
