Sweet Things
From the Beginning
Zack’s P.O.V
Erin had asked me to stay with her so I had been home with her all evening/day and it seems that she was distraught and was finally cooling down after everything that had been going on. I walked into the living room while she watched a movie and sat down pulling her under the blanket with me.
“You doing okay?” I asked her and she just stared at the tv… part of me knew that it really wasn’t keeping her mind off of Hannah.
“I just can’t believe that she is mad at me” She said and without thinking I commented back.
“I can totally believe it Erin” It just kind of flew out of my mouth and she sat up and turned around.
“Oh really?” She said with a bite and raised her eyebrow.
“Yeah I fucking can… you kept something that big from her… and you still haven’t fully told anyone what the fuck you dreamt about or what you have seen! You can’t keep people in the dark because it may only hurt them!” I said getting everything off my chest… things were still rebuilding with us so I may have still been a little upset.
“I really am the fuck up that everyone fucking believes me to be! I mean come on I really didn’t want Hannah to get hurt like she did and I didn’t even myself know what the fuck was going on! And now you are just being a dick about it!” She said loudly… she was never afraid to get loud.
“Just calm yourself Erin… Hannah will forgive you at some point in time.. you aren’t a fuck up and you need to relax after what happened earlier” I said to her and she just flung the blanket off of her legs and then stood up.
“Just get out Zack” She said and I just stood up and set the controller down on the couch and I just wrapped myself around her not letting her push away… of course after a few moments she hugged back but she bolted when her phone started ringing… it was probably Hannah.
Erin’s P.O.V
I ran up the stairs and grabbed my phone and was saddened when I realized that it was just Jimmy but I was confused when I answered and he sounded really really upset and worried but I was just sleepy and groggy.
“Hello?” I answered and Jimmy didn’t give me much time to say anything else.
“Erin, get to Hannah’s place, now!” He said and I could he the loud rumble of his bike.
“What, Why?!” I nearly yelled into the phone because I thought it was some dumb thing to make me say sorry first but I was caught completely off guard and shut up when he said the next statement.
“He’s there!” He said and I sat there for a moment and then I literally dropped the phone grabbing my keys and stumbling down the stairs frantically as my socks slid on the hardwood floor and Zack caught me and tried stopping me.
“TAKE ME TO HANNAHS!” I yelled and was crying just a little and he didn’t ask questions he just ran with me and drove.
“FASTER!” I yelled and he stomped his foot down on the gas pedal and when we got a few blocks down I didn’t really get a chance to let him fully stop and threw my body out the door and was literally in hell getting to her. Zack picked me up not even parking the car properly and I stopped hearing a ringing in my ears slowing me down dramatically.
“Erin are you okay?” He asked and I just rubbed my head but then I heard the voice despite the splitting headache and the sound that was slowing me down and making me fall in my place.
Come in my dear… I have been expecting you The voice said… the man’s name was Sebastian. I sat there halfway to the ground in Zack’s arms and was just grounded by the sound but I looked up glaring at Sebastian who was staring through the window and I pushed my hands down picking myself up and ran inside only to be knocked down by a sudden vision as my hand touched the staircase.
*I was in the exact same place that I went into the comatose state only everything around me was white… the stairs… the kitchen the furniture. There was no one in sight till the tall eerie looking man one bright blue and one piercing green eye stepped into the picture.
“Don’t try running” He said and I realized that I was backing up and stopped in my tracks. He sat on the arm of the couch and just studied me and I tried to contact Hannah from this… place… and hoped she could do it.
“You realize that your sight gift negates out any other powers? That little trick with Hannah losing oxygen feeling like someone was strangling her was a party trick of mine… and the scene worked out perfectly dear you really did well… but you really never heeded my warning” He said and I opened my mouth to speak and he stood up and I stopped startled wondering what the hell he was going to do.
“I don’t answer to you.. neither does Hannah” I threw out of my mouth and he just laughed messing with the white rose in a vase.
“I never said that you two answered to me or anyone for that matter my darling.. I have just come to do my job, to make sure things work out the way needed” He said and his voice was deep and smooth and you would think it would completely creep you out but it was enticing which what was killer.
“Why are we targeted?” I asked him and he just stared at the flower and it wilted as he turned his head to me and the look in his eyes burned into my soul almost…
“You have been marked your whole life… both you and Hannah… and it all started with your mother’s. Tisk tisk E… you really didn’t research enough after our last encounter… you really don’t care what happens… you are too carefree to realize that I can burn down the world around you two just to get what I want” He stated nearing my general vicinity and I was about to back up but when he grabbed my hand and placed it on the banister there was a force that held me in place that just could not be broken.
“Don’t fight… you need to save your strength.. you will only hurt yourself more; see there you go again not thinking about the outcome” He said and I just stilled and he let his touch linger on my hand and he was in a way cold but I could almost see his blood boil on the inside.. the evil that just ran his mind. He used the other hand to pull the hair from my face and he just grabbed my chin lightly.
“Run… find Hannah I insist… but first… you better fix yourself and don't worry we shall meet again” He said and I was confused until I closed my eyes as his fingernail ran down my neck but opened my eyes screaming as he slashed my side with it and I was back just like that.*
Zack’s P.O.V
As Erin sat there in yet another one of her random catatonic attacks Jimmy was nearly dying trying to figure out where Hannah could be but we were both confused and frightened when Jimmy ran past Erin and there was a sudden blood spatter over him and I from Erin’s side.
“OH SHIT!” Jimmy yelled and then she screamed louder than ever and you could feel the mental exertion radiating from her body and she didn’t even blink before letting go of the banister and running up the stairs.
“HANNAH STOP!” She screamed with Jimmy and I following behind.
“Erin I looked everywhere up here!” Jimmy yelled at her and she ran into Hannah’s room and to her bathroom which the door was shut on and Erin could hear whimpers along with the two of us and then we heard a bang on the cool tile.
“OPEN THE DOOR DON’T DO THIS TO ME!” Erin said losing her mind. She backed up and moved Jimmy and I from the sides of the door and we were nearly thrown against the wall. Erin put her hand out and she was nearly dying as the door rumbled and you could hear the metal hinges snapping and the door snapped as she clenched her fist and Jimmy ran inside busting the rubble and Erin dropped holding onto the little couch by Hannah’s window and I grabbed her arm pulling her into me.
“I’ve got you E” I said to her as she used the other hand to clench her hands. She looked over to Hannah who was being comforted by Jimmy as he pulled the shards of a broken vase out of her leg.
“Was that vase broken the whole time?” Erin said softly and my gaze fell to hers.
“It was broken when we got in here… why?” I asked her and she didn’t answer she just searched her mind almost like there was something deeply troubling here… I just wanted to make it all go away.
