My Demise



Her eyes were now dark with anger and hate. Those once bright green eyes that shone greatly with aniticipation. She had a smerk on her face and by her expression i could tell she was debting herself. I screamed and pleaded for her to spare my life. I felt horrible I never need anyone in my life and now mines depended on her. There chains around my wrist that bond me to the wall. I can't believe its going to end like this. We had a good friendship but after that day i couldn't take it anymore. After 9 good years of friend that day just crossed the line. The season of bitter cold was upon us. The beautiful lucious trees now fell bare. Nicole was standing outside the school doors waiting for me like always. Nicole was wearing the same coat she was wearing yesterday and the day before that. Her lumious curls fell with no effort onto her carmel brown face. She wasn't the worst person in the world but she seemed to always be around me. In my mind I just wanted to walk by and pay her no mind but instead I greeted with her with an excited,"Hi Nick!" She answered me with a "Hey"."Are you ready to go?" I asked. "Sure" she reponded. When I realized that I would have to spend the day with her always wanting to touch me and be the only person I talk to I remembered an earlier promise. "Oh wait, we can't. I promised to go to the pep rally with Jessica and the girls." I knew she hated my other friends because everytime they came into contact she made sure to let them know. "Come on do you have to go?" I stated with resitation "I promised, but you can come with you want and besides you never support the school." Nicole agreed to come. Like usual she grabbed my arm with a satisfied look on her face and we walk to meet Jessica. Jessica and the whole group of other girl disliked Nicole. They knew she was my staker and they didn't want her around. Nicole looked at Jessica and said hello. Jessica responded,"oh hi Nicole, what are you doing her, I know how you hate sports of any kind." "Ha ha funny girl" Nicole said sarcasticly. "Come you two." I said trying to hurry things up. When we started walking to the field Nicole tried to grabbed my ar again but I pulled away and started walking with my other friends. I could see Nicole out the corner of my eye and she wouldn't stop staring at me. Though my frineds and I were doing the things I know Nicole hated she still wouldn't leave. We started talking about boys and acting like sobs. "Wow, look at this place!" I said cheerfully. Jessica said,"Everyone in the school must here!" Nicole state,"I wish i wasn't here." Nicole came over to me and grabbed me by the arm and said,"Let's go." She was always trying to get me away from my friends. She hated the idea that she wasn't my only friend. "No, we just got here." I said stiffly. "Why are you being a loser?" Jessica chimed. "Oh i forgot you was here. Shut up witch." Nicole smartly snarled. The roaring court silenced completly. "Are you going to let her talk to me like that Raychole, I'm your best friend?" I saw this as an oppurtunity to tell Nicole what I truly thought about her. I mean she could be a good frined sometimes, but she was annoying and never left me alone. So, I said,"But you are." "What?" she stated in amazement. "Come on Nick, don't do this to me you're like a weirdo." Nicole's eyes filled with tears. "Is this how we are now Raychole?" She started crying franticly and ran off. At the moment I felt glad and relieved that I did what I did, but when I went home I felt sort of bad. Maybe she was a little annoying, but she never did anything wrong to me. So, I decided to apologize the next day in school. That morning I seemed to wake up on the wrong side of the bed. I woke up late so my hair looked a mess. I didn't have a decent breakfast and it was raining outside so it wouldn't make my hair any better. I walked out of the house with great confidence hoping people would pay more attention to my attitude and not what I was wearing, because by the time I got to school my clothes were completly soaked. I was on the look out for Nicole so I could ask for forgiveness and get it over with. Right before lunch I spotted Nicole out the corner of my eye watching me like always. I walked over to her and said, "Hey Nick, i'm sorry about yesturday, I didn't mean to say that to you like that." She just gave me a blank stare and blurtted out, "I love you." and walked away not looking back. I was stunned. I looked like a deer in the head lights. I stood in the same spot and stared into nothing for about 2 minutes. I went to lunch dazed. I knew I would have to end our friendship. The love she was talking about was more then friend love. I could see it in her eyes. After lunch I had a free period so I decided to go to the library and read my book. I opened the door and it creeked loudly and echoed. The place was totaly empty. I was so into my book then out of nowhere I heard, "Hello, Raychole." I quickly said, "What are you doing here?" Nicole replied,"I just wanted to spend some time with you, talk to you, but am I to much of a werido to?" "I thought I said I was sorry, you know I didn't mean it ." I hissed. "But no you did." she yelled. I couldn't take this anymore it went on for too long. "I don't have time for this" I screamed, "What is wrong with you, i'm sorry I don't want to be your girlfriend, i'm not gay!" She stared at me and stamered,"What,what are you talking about?" I couldn't hold it in I shouted, "Everyone knows that you are in love with me and i'm not gay. Because of you when we first came to high school everyone thought I was,you ruined me, I tried to be your friend but I can't, I can't believe I even apologized to you, I was just telling the truth." I soon as I finished my sentence she ran up to me and grabbed me with her hand on top of my mouth. I started screaming and yelling for help, but she pressed down even harder to muffle my screams. She dragged me into the back room where all the left over books were stored. She grabbed the chain from the door and wrapped them around my wrists and bond me to the metal loops on the wall. I felt tears come to my eyes because i knew there wasn't anything left for me to do. When I looked up she shouted at me,"You were perfect, no we were perfect together, after all this time how could you let some retarded people change your opinon of me?"I had nothing left to say."Tell me, tell me why, you know I love you, why don't you love me?, I was perfect for you, you were all the things I thought I knew, you were the only thing that was pure and right in the world, when we were together everything was right, why can't we just be?" Now I started to get frustrated. "Answer me?"she yelled. Then she turned around to get something from her bag. I knew this was it. She finally went insane. She was really going to kill me. I gave one last attempt at breaking free and my wrists came loose. I guess she underestimated the power of lotion. I took the nearest book I could reach and hit her across the face. She fell to the ground and blood started rushing down her face. I stood over her and repeatdly hit her in the head with the book. I continued until I was sure she would haunt me no longer. I looked at the book in my hand and on the spine it said Volume 20. As the blood dripped from the cover and hit the ground I woke up in my bed. I looked around my same completly white room. The color comforted me as it reminded me of that bitter season that fell upon us. The room was completly empty with nothing but myself and my bed in it. The moonlight fell upon the gates on my windows and created a shadow upon my face. I reached under my bed and pulled out a book. I turned it to the side and it read volume 20. I followed the blood trail along the cover until it disappered into the pages. I put the book back under my bed and went back to my wonderful night of sleep.
