You Are Mine

CHAPTER 1

I woke up to the feeling of something being wrong. I don't what it was, I couldn't put my finger on it.

The coolness of the night made me shudder ferociously.

Is it me or has my room temperature dropped?

It then occurred to me that I wasn't in my room. I mean sure my room is dark and so is everybody else's when the lights are switched off but I knew my room wasn't this dark! And not this chilly. I just sat there looking into the nothingness.

Now to say that I'm not scared of the dark is.... kind of a true understatement,
but it's just that it's really cold and I can't stand cold weather that much , plus the warm PJ'S I'm wearing aren't doing a great job in keeping me warm either.

Suddenly a random question hit me; I'm in the dark. God knows where I am but how did I get here? Did someone bring me here? If yes then who? A shiver ran down my spine as I pondered on these unsettling questions.

"Oh you're awake" a voice said behind me making me jump and turn my head in that direction.

Well I guess that answers my questions, I thought to myself as I quietly and slowly walked forward. What scared me the most was that I wasn't alone here and whoever this person is definitely won't let me go if I ask them to.

"I can hear you breathing darling. Come here! Come to me. Don't worry I'll make it quick", it was more of a command than a question. I could tell that this person was a guy because he had a raspy yet intimidating deep voice. I heard heavy footsteps not behind me nor in front of me but this guy was circling me like a shark circles its prey.

All was silent before someone's hands grabbed my waist pulling me backward into his chest.

"Boo!!"his warm, minty breath tingled my neck as he whispered. A wave of goosebumps washed over me making me shiver and even though it's dark I knew he felt it.

"You afraid of me?" He whisper- chuckled before continuing.

"Well you should be!" He seethed through clenched teeth.

"And I love fear... especially when it comes to inflicting some else " I felt him grin against my cheek as his head rested on my shoulder.

I didn't take a chance to stay instead I elbowed him in the chest causing him to groan in pain. I took this opportunity to make a run for it . I heard him curse in anger before his voice faded as I ran deeper into the void.

It felt like I'd been running for hours, my legs were starting to grow weary, I swear I could see my heart pumping out my chest... literally. Damn come to think of it, I've never ran like this, like never ever. I'm sure my heart could pump millions of gallons of blood at this moment. I was suddenly brought to a stop as I violently collided into a something hard, a wall?A column post? I don't what it was but I immediately fell to the ground, groaning in pain. My whole body was sore one from running and the other hitting my head onto something.

I managed to sit upright while rubbing my temples, praying for this pain and nightmare to end. I felt the "something " in front of me and just as I guessed it was a wall. I tried getting up for fear of that psycho when I was pushed back to the ground forcefully. I screamed while throwing my fists and feet into the darkness.

I felt strong hands grab my ankles and before I could act he dragged me further into the dark , my back was burning and most likely scraped from the friction. I squealed as he grabbed my wrists and pinned them above my head.

The place he brought me had enough light to see the tall frame hovering over me. He had a black hoodie on so I couldn't tell much about his face, but only his  "heart-stopping" grin flashed before me.

"Don't worry. I'll put you out of your misery" he said as he positioned himself on top of me.

Is this a dream? Nightmare? Please let it be...
Is this how I die? By getting murdered? There's so many things I want to do and learn. This can't be real!

I looked up at him as he released my hands , a knife in his hand.

"Nooooo please!" I cried pleadingly.

"Shh" he placed a finger on my lips .

"I'll make it quick" he said cold heartedly.

He drew it backwards before coming for my chest.

"Nooo!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Tirzah! Wake up!" Someone's concerned voice sounded into my ears.

"Get away from me!" I replied harshly.

"Honey it's ok! You just had a nightmare, calm down" her voice was so gentle and filled kindness.

I opened my eyes , blinking a few times just to get adjusted to the light. I saw that I was in my room, my bright and well lighted room. I turned to see the person sitting on the edge of my bed , staring at me with pure concern. She smiled at me.

"You're okay dear, it was just a nightmare " the kindness in her voice made me feel much better because I was actually drenched in sweat.

"How did you know I was having a nightmare?" I said with a puzzled look.

She raised a brow and crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"Anyone in the neighborhood would know that you were having a nightmare" she chuckled to herself before continuing.

"You were screaming" She mocked making total fun of me being a scaredy cat.

I frowned at her.

"Yeah whatever.. mom. Thanks. You can go now" I replied jokingly gesturing her to go while crossing my arms over my chest.

"Whatever!" She said sassily , flipping her hair and rolling her eyes at me.

"Now we're even. I made fun of you screaming and you made fun of me.... last week. I'm going back to bed. Don't cry baby" she mocked before closing my bedroom door.

Resting my head on my pillow again I searched for my phone which was charging on my nightstand. I grabbed it and quickly checked the time

-5:23am-

I sighed.

I can sleep for another hour, right? I have to go out at 8 anyways . Just one hour of sleep. Just one hour.

I closed my eyes trying to drift of to sleep but images of the guy with the knife flashed before my eyes. My shot eyes open, instantly gazing at the ceiling full of glowing stars.

That's when it hit me. Whenever you have a dream or NIGHTMARE it's usually based on the last thing you think , see or imagine about before hitting the hay sack. My thoughts drifted to the last thing I saw last night. I watched a horror/ thriller movie in the dark... alone . I didn't know the movie Scream would actually scare the hell out of me!

Pushing those thoughts aside I ignored those images and let my body relax and shut down.
