What is this guy on now?
He brushed a hair lock of mine behind my ear. "I thought that our April was oblivious like a goldfish, but she has showed us today that she's really like a cat."
Did he just call me dumb in animal terms? Tired of his gibberish I tried to push him away so that I could have some space, but this guy wouldn't flinch! It's like I was pushing a wall. "What are you going on about?" I said frustrated still pushing at his chest.
He grabbed both of my hands again and this time he pulled me towards him. With my head strained back my eyes met with his sunglasses again.
"You lied to me." He sneered. "And I am mad about it."
I gulped. He figured out that I had lied to him about hurting myself. "What are you talking about?" I asked trying to act oblivious of what he was saying.
He tutted with his fingers. "Don't act stupid with me baby girl. You lied to me about hurting yourself, remember?"
Trying to keep a poker face I could feel my soul leaving my body. I am dead he's here to kill me. I'm sure of it, but I can't let my fear being shown on my face.
"So what? Are you going to kill me now?" I said acting brave.
He chuckled. "Now why would I kill my reason to live?"
Not expecting that answer I could feel myself heating up. "W-what are you saying!?" I said flustered.
He stared at me and sighed frustrated. "Fuck…I wish that I could kiss you right now, but that means that I would risk blowing up my cover."
At this point I became a tomato. "Shut up." I squealed out, covering my mouth with my hands in an attempt to protect my lips.
"Why are you so cute?" He swooned.
"Can you just stop? Why are you here then if you're not here to kill me? You said that you were mad." I said annoyed.
He groaned angerly. "Why the fuck did you had to destroy the mood. I even forgot that I was mad." He laid his hand on my shoulder and sighed.
"I wasn't angry that you lied to me about hurting yourself. I was angry behind your reason for it." He gripped on to my shoulders harder causing me to flinch from the pressure. "You were lying and at the same time threatening me to keep that tan boy safe." Unconsciously I turned my head sideways from the proximity closeness of his face to mine.
The fact that his face expressions were hidden away behind his getup only heightened his scary demeanor.
"S-So what? I didn't want you to kill a good friend of my." I stammered.
"And that heroic behavior of yours is really endearing, but this time it pissed me off. Do you think that I care if a guy dies?" He growled into my ear.
I whimpered. "Why are you here Jack?"
He leaned back finally giving me space to breath. "Because you had to lie for that bastard, I had to take out this blazing anger on someone."
I blinked a few times in realization and panic. "Y-You killed someone again?"
He chuckled. "That's right. Your best friend is lying somewhere at the bottom of the bay." He said darkly.
"Why did you do that you asshole!? I even told him to not come close to me anymore. I was going to abide to your rules you shit-stupid-idiot of a stalker!?" I screamed while slamming my fists on to his chest trying to inflict some pain, but seeing how he did even flinch at my attack I started to cry in frustration.
"Why are you messing with my life!? I hate this shit! I hate it! I hate it!" I chanted.
He grabbed my hands stopping my movement. I couldn't budge at all as I kept sobbing.
I could hear him exhale frustrated. "Don't cry…I was lying. I haven't killed tan boy yet. I couldn't find out his address, so I killed some random man off the street." He groaned bitterly.
I could feel my legs unbuckle under me and with a shaky breath I clasped my hands together and thanked the heavens. "Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" I felt bad for the unknown man, but I couldn't stop my happiness when I knew that no one that I held dear was killed.
"I wouldn't do anything that will make you angry anymore." I said between sniffles.
He crouched down in front of me and stroked my head. "let this be a lesson for you."
I nodded again.
He suddenly grabbed my chin forcing me to look at him. "Let me also warn you baby girl. Even though I know that you would never try to hurt yourself, but if I EVER catch you thinking about it you'll be chained to our bed and for every scar you make on your body somebody's head will also start rolling. Do I make myself clear?" He said dangerously low.
Petrified I couldn't move an inch.
"I want to hear it from your mouth baby girl."
"Yes." I said just above a whisper.
"Good girl." He said happy. "Now go inside your apartment wash yourself up and go to bed." He said like he was talking to child.
Annoyed by his tone I scoffed slapping his hand away. "Buzz off your being hella annoying. Argh this is the worst." I scratched my head in frustration while standing up. He also stood up and chuckled.
"Ah yes there's your love filled vocabulary. I was already getting tired of you acting sappy."
I glared at him. "Can you just leave now?"
I really just wanted to hit the shower and go to bed and forget what had happened today.
"I will see you later." He said mused.
"See me later? Where later?" I asked worried that he would make a habit of ambushing me.
"Through my surveillance cameras of course! I watch you all night long." He said proudly.
The goosebumps that were forming on my body caused me to shiver in disgust from his comment. I just inched slowly away backwards, grabbed my keys from the ground and entered hastily into my apartment.
"Love you too!" I could hear him yell from the outside. I just grumbled under my breath about how I wished that he would be hit by a bus or something.
Kicking off my shoes and removing my leather jacket I walked further in what I thought was a safe place.
After taking a shower and a bath I made some hot choco for myself and plunged myself on the couch; watching reruns of Friends on Netflix, but I couldn't really focus on it. My mind was clouded by the stuff that had happened today. I slouched more into the couch hugging my legs to my chest depressed.
I was such a dick towards Cherry and Brandon no matter what I shouldn't have exploded like that on them, but I couldn't help it just the mention of that woman makes my blood boil and the fact that they have been basically giving information of my daily activities to her doesn't make it any better. It seems that I already had two stalkers…the irony.
I exhaled loudly; stuck on what to do from now on. I don't want to see them for some days that's for sure, but I don't want this to break our friendship and I still have to see them at work, so I can't really avoid them, can I?
Too tired to figure out a solution to my predicament I just kept watching tv with a blanc face. I was watching the moving pictures, but no information was saved. Before I knew two seasons of friends had already passed.
"I should just go to bed." I told myself in defeat.
