Chapter 1
I'm hiding in the closet hoping he won't find me. If he finds me I am dead meat.
* * * *
When I wake up it's morning so I know it's safe to come out, he's at work.
So it's my first day of seventh grade and our first period teacher said we have to stand up and introduce ourselves. It's my turn to introduce myself and I'm really nervous because it's a new school and I don't have any friends yet. So here I go, "Hi, my name is Yvett Martinez."
"Do you have anything to tell the class about yourself?" The teacher asked.
"No,"I quickly said.
After everyone finished introducing themselves we went on with the first day stuff and first period was finally over. While I am at my locker putting my stuff up, Cathy, a girl in my class, comes up to me and says hi.
"Hi," I say glancing at her then going back to what I was doing.
"Are you ok?" Cathy asked.
Shutting my locker I looked at her and said, "What do you mean 'am I ok'?"
"I mean you looked kind of scared when you introduced yourself."
"Oh, I'm fine just a little nerous since a new school with new people."
She looked at me like she didn't believe me but after a while she said, "Come on or we'll be late for class," and that's when I knew Cathy and I were going to be good friends.
I found out that our second period teacher practically let us do whatever we wanted to. Cathy and I wrote notes to eachother and I found out she was new too, she moved from Florida. i told her everything that happened in my life except about him. I don't think I trust anyone to tell them about him, not even god.
When school was over I was scared to death. I was hoping that that he hadn't come home yet. Well let me tell you the story of why I'm scared of this guy:
First I should start of by telling you that the guy I'm scared of is my dad. When I was young, he would bring teenage girls home and rape them. One day mom couldn't take it anymore and tried to call the cops but dad was on the other line and went to cut the phone cord. The next day mom was dead. I think dad killed her but he told me that she had a heart attack. I still think that he killed her because she was as healthy as a horse. As i got in my teens he started trying to have sex with me but I wasn't wiiling. Now he tries to rape me but I hide so he can't find me.
I decided to invite Cathy over to have dinner. She said she'd be over at six, so that gave me three hours. He will be home in thirty minutes so I take the chance and start cooking.
I hear the door open and shut so I know that he has made it home. He comes in the kitchen and seea me at the stove. "Well it's been a while since I've seen a woman in the kitchen. It's a good thing because I am having some buddies come over to watch the game, and they'll be hungry."
I wanted to say, 'Yeah, they're coming to watch the game not eat. If you want them to eat feed them yourself'. Instead I said, "Jacob, my friend is coming over to eat so don't embarrass me." I don't call him dad because it disgusts me to say it.
When six o'clock came around Cathy was knocking at the door. I answered it and told her to come to the kitchen and help me make our plate. Jacob's biddies had showed up and hour ago so they already got their food.
We took our food up to my room and ate. We talked and talked until time passed by. The next thing we knew it was nine o'clock and cathy needed to head home. I took Cathy to the door and we said our good-byes.
I went to turn around and I felt a smack on my butt. I knew who it was and I didn't acknowledge him, I just walked past him and went to my room. "Good night, Jacob." I said when I got to my room.
"Good night," He said dazed.
Chapter 2
The second day of school wasn't as fun as yesterday because today we start our lessons. first period was pretty easy and the time went by quickly. Second period was also easy and all we had to do was read and write notes. Now it's time to go to our exploritory. Today we had science so some of us go to art and some of us go to gym.
"What do you have for exploritory?" questioned Cathy.
"Gym, you?"
"Gym, isn't that cool how we have the same classes?"
"Yeah, just I hate the fact that we're in an all girl class, girls have lots of drama actually too much drama."
"That's true, but just try to get use to it. I don't want to lose another friend." In Cathy's past school she had a friend who wanted to be in an all girl class and because it was a mixed class, she moved.
"Ok, you're not going to lose me. I can't go anywhere even if I wanted to."
"Oh, well lets go see who our gym teacher is." CAthy said grabbing my hand.
Gym was pretty cool because sometimes he let us do whatever we wanted, but others we would have to do what he wanted. Lunch time was kind of like free time but we couldn't talk loud.
Now it's the end of the day and Cathy and I decided to walk through the park since it was nice and sunny outside. IN Oklahome you don't know what the weather will be like. One minute it mat be nice and sunny but then the next you will be running for shelter because its pouring on you.
When I got home I was saoked. I went up to the bathroom and took a nice hot shower. I put some dry pj's on and decided to watch a movie. When I was little Jcob and I always had movie fridays but now I'm afraid if i sit anywhere alone with him, he's just going to try to get me out of my pants.
Nine o'clock came around and when I'm going to go make some popcorn for the scary movie I was going to watch, I heard a knock at the door. I knew it couldn't be Jacob because he got a key and I can't have company after nine, so who could it be?
When I opened the door it's some gu around my age. He was so cute that I couldn't speak.
"Hi," he said, "I'm Andrew and I live across the street from you. Your dad told me on fridays you are always lonely so I was wondering if you wanted some company?"
"Yes, but I don't think my dad would like it if I had a boy here after nine. I'm Yvett by the way." I finally had the guts to say. Then I thought about it and decided to let him in anyways.
After I let him in I asked, "Do you want some popcorn , I'm getting ready to watch a scary movie."
"Sure, what's the name of the movie?" He asked.
"Autopsy, it's about some doctor," I started to say.
"Ok, don't tell me the movie, this one I haven't seen yet," explained Andrew.
"Oh, sorry." I said in a flirty way.
So I made the popcorn and we sat and watched the movie. It's awkward because the only boy I've ever been alone with was my little cousin, and that wasn't a date. I mean this isn't a date but it's a hot guy who seems to be in the mood for a date so lets call it that.
When the movie was over Andrew was sleep and since I didn't want to wake him up I decided to go up to my room and fall asleep.
I was having a bad dream and woke up, it was probably two in the morning. Normally when I have a bad dream I drink a cup of milk but tonight I heard the television on and went to see why. It was Andrew watching Autopsy again.
"What are you doing up?" He asked.
"Bad dream," I explained. "What are you doing up?"
"Watching this movie why, you want me to leave?"
"No, it's just it's two in the morning, I thought you'd be slepp."
"Oh, well you thought wrong. I should be going, bye Yvett." He said walking out the door.
"Bye, Andrew." I sadly said.
Chapter 3
Today is Saturday and it won't stop raining, I mean it's pouring down. I decide to call Jacob and see where he is.
"Hello," Jacob says.
"Jacob while you're out can you buy me some ice?"
"Why, what you need ice for?"
"Because I need it for the soda, Cathy and I are having a slumber party next friday."
"Why didn't you ask me if you could have a slumber party?"
"Because you might try to rape them."
"What, why would I rape your friends," he said acting dumb.
"Because you tried to rape me," I explained. "Why you tell Andrew I'm lonely on fridays?"
"I wanted you to feel safe and it's true ever since you were ten you would be home alone by yourself," explained Jacob.
"Oh well just get the ice please," I said sweetly.
"Oh, alright but only if you watch a movie with me, I miss having our movie days.'
I paused for a minute and thought about what he said. Then I finally said, "Ok, I hope you're telling the truth." I said nervously, I knew I was doing the wrong thing.
"Jacob got homw ith the ice and said, "Movie time, i went and picked up soem movies we use to watch when you were little like, Dinosaurs."
"Cool, I remember that movie, it was my favorite and still is." I cheerfully said.
Jacob made the popcorn and sat really close to me, I loved the smell of his cologne though. It was like I was in heaven The credits came up and everything went black. I fell asleep in dad's arms.
It turned out dad really changed. He's the man my mom married, he's my dad.
Now instead of having movie friday we watch movies on Saturday. Andrew and I watch movies on Friday now.
* * * * *
It's two days before the slumber party and I need a lightbulb so I went to my neighbors house to see if he would let me me have one. He seemed to like teenage girls because he brought a differeent one home every night.
Knock-knock-knock
The door creaked open.
"Hello, is anyone home?"
I walked around to the back and that's when I seen it. A young girl about my age was lied out on the bed with blood all over her.
"Aaahhh," I screamed.
I ran out the house and ran straight into dad.
"Daddy, I'm so glad I found you."
"What is it sweeyheart," dad caringly said.
"There's a dead body in his house and she's around my age ."
He went into the house to check it out and looked around more. It turned out that there was a dead body in each of the rooms and he had
