《Crazy》37: Leave

"I just wanted to ask you a few questions." I spoke up.
"Like what?" Drew looks wary, as if he knows where I'm going with this.
"Well, where does Cole work?" Drew doesn't give anything away.
"I can't say. All I can say, is knowing too much can get you killed." I nod my head slowly.
"How many languages does Cole know?"
"Four. English, French, Italian, and Spanish." Wow, that's a lot.
"My turn." Doesn't he already know a lot about me...
"Do you have a boyfriend?" I wasn't sure if he meant before I was taken or...if it was a trick question to define what we are.
"No, there was a guy I liked, he had asked me out...before everything happened." I don't even dare look at Drew.
"Okay, well forget about him." He spits out.
"Why did you take me?" I now say angry.
"You don't need to know." He tries to push the subject aside.
"Yes! Yes I do, actually." If he really thinks I'll be with him without him being honest then he's far gone.
"No." Now I look at him like he's crazy, did he really just say, no?
Nuh uh.
"Then I can't do this." His eyes widen.
"What can't you do? Us?" He speaks through clenched teeth.
"Exactly. If you're not going to be honest, then fućk you!" I begin to walk out of his room.
"No, you don't get to just walk away from me like that!"
"It's not like I can really go anywhere now can I?! I'm still your fûcking prisoner." He looks as if he's been slapped.
"I-I'm sorry." Is all he says before I continue walking out of his room, and this time I'm the one to slam the door.

"What a fûcking aśshole." I mumble to myself. Once I get to my room, I do something I haven't done while I was here. I jump face first onto my bed and scream into my pillow.
I was throwing a tantrum as if I was back home and not trapped inside this stupid house.
Wait.
My door isn't locked. Drew is in his room.
Now is my chance to try and escape. I go to the closet and look for the clothes I wore when I was taken.
They're in the very back. They are much dirtier than I remember. I leave them there instead of changing into them and move as quickly and quietly as I can to the front door.
I stand right in front of it. It's unlocked. Cole must've forgotten to lock it after he left in a hurry.
I reach for the handle and pull it open. My eyes begin watering as I look at the outside world. It's so beautiful. There's no close neighbors so I can't run to their house and beg for help.
Just as I am about to take my first step out I realize I can't move. Not literally of course. But my mind just can't seem to be able to tell my body to move.
"What are you doing?" Drew speaks behind me. I close the door but continue facing it. I don't want to see his face right now.
"Were you trying to leave me!" Does this mean I've broken his trust?
"Answer me!" He says after a minute of my silence and his ragged breathing.
I nod.
"Go back to your room, before I completely lose it." I turn around and walk around him.
Fûck, freedom was so close! I could've been gone had he not shown up.

Somehow I knew I was lying to myself, I couldn't move for a reason, why?
Just then I hear something smash against the wall.
I lay on my bed and stare at the ceiling while I cover my ears to muffle the sounds from the kitchen and living room.

What even is this chapter...?
I'm so confused with where I took it.
Now I kinda know how I can end it though :) if that changes I may have to rewrite this chapter. 🤔
How's your day?

My Girlfriend, the Necromancer
The power of the Orb cleaves the skies and shatters the earth. It heralds the advent of a new era, one where humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain and we must rise to the challenge when faced with our own extinction as a species. I could hardly care less. All I ever wanted was to love my Allie, to grow old and wrinkly by her side as I held her hand before taking my last breath on this green earth. To have our love echo through the ages, an ode to the last great love story on the planet, one that would endure the end of humanity, the breaking of the world, and even defy the dread summons of Death itself. It’s said that when the gods unleash their fury upon mortal kind, they grant their wishes. Well, crap. This is a gritty end of the world survival story with modern fantasy/romance/game-like elements in it. The main focus will be character development while stats and menus are there as a fun vehicle to empower the imagination. This is a work in progress and I deeply appreciate any helpful suggestions, so please don't be shy with input! Currently posting at least one chapter per week.

This is an original tale made as an homage to the famed Studio Ghibli and Guillermo Del Toro, all-the-while taking inspirations from numerous animes and fantasies alike (Too many to love!

Plagued with gut-wrenching fear and an oncoming spiral into madness comes the boy's only hope of survival. Ripe with desperate opportunity, arrives the many-faced creature rushing to make a deal worth several lifetimes. "To find your way into your parent's arms again, you'll need to become a Valiant." He explained. "A Valiant?" I responded suspiciously. "...One must perform a 3-part task in which you must demonstrate the essence of a Mother, the essence of a Father, and earn the essence of a Gaurdian." He explained with haste. Innocently playing into the unknown visitor's tempting hand, the boy agrees to a deal hopelessly intertwined with a journey like no other and is sent to the mysterious and massive city of New Dwarden. Faced with outrageously colorful characters, towering and seemingly alien animal life, and even talking frogs-lemur's, the boy must adapt to grand adventure to complete his impossible task. This a steampunk story about a second chance at life, one that grows beyond life and death.
