Scarlett, what a lovely name. I would love to leave my mark on you. I would love to take my knife and drag it across your whole body while you tremble in fear. I need you. I crave you. Scarlett, won’t you stop and see I’m madly obsessed with you. Please oh please let me chase you until you run out of breath.

Ardin, Lorelai, and myself all went to the same high school. That’s were it began. The obsession. The betrayal. The lying. Ardin started following my sister around and asking questions. He was more than obsessed with her but knowing her she wasn’t gonna back down. One day when we was walking to school Ardin ran at her and picked her, pretending he was going to kidnap her. I screamed as loud as I could. She was laughing, thinking it was a joke. I was trembling in fear. You could say we have different personalities.

“Ardin leave my sister alone.”

“Scarelett! Please leave him alone, we’re just friends.” Lorelai says while frowning because it’s the only attention she gets from guys.

“Come on Scar, we’re just playing around, you know I don’t mean any harm.” He says with a jagged smile.

“Fuck off.” I say with the upmost attitude. Not caring about anything he said.

Hi my name is Scarlett. I’m a 21 year old that lives at the Hyatt community college. I have a twin names Lorelai. Our parents are divorced. When we was 11 our mom committed suicide. Dad did the best he could tell we grew up. He got so bad that he’d throw things at us and tell us that we’re a splitting image of her.

“LEAVE ME ALONE YOU CAPTIVE FREAK!” I yell. I run through the benches hoping he can’t find me. This has been happening for 2 years. What did I do to make him so obsessed with me? Why won’t he leave e alone? I’m over it. I just want peace. I trip over the broken sidewalk piece, and my ripped jeans get even more rips in them.

“Scarlett you can run all you want but I know everything about you my darling.” He’s says loud enough for me to hear and no one else. He’s wearing a black hoodie that has tears in it probably from his last victims. His pants are dark jeans held up by a belt that’s three sizes too big.

“FUCK OFF, AND LEAVE ME ALONE!”

“FOR ALL I KNOW YOU KIDNAPPED MY SISTER, AND HID HER SOMEWHERE.”

My sister Lorelai has been missing for 3 years and no one has heard or seen anything from her. I miss her everyday. I wish she would come home.

I run home quickly as fast as I can so Ardin doesn’t follow me. He’s coming I can feel it. He won’t stop tell he gets what he wants. I reach my home, lock the door, and run upstairs to my room and lock it. That’s when I see a folded up letter on Lorelais side of the room.

It reads…….

“He follows me, stalks me, i see him everywhere I look. I don’t know what I did to him. But I like him, he’s all I’ve ever wanted. Apart of me feels like I can change him. Make him good. He’ll pretect. I wish he would stop following me and just talk to me. I know he’s taking other females before but I like the rush of being chased or chained up. I just want to feel something. I stopped taking my bpd (borderline personality disorder) medication. My life feels like a never ending loophole. If I can’t have him no one can. I’m playing hide and seek from everyone. Come find me if you dare too.”

“OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!” I screamed. “She’s completely insane!” I flip over the letter and I’m a small torm up corner it reads….

“If he wasn’t going to love me, he wasn’t going to love anyone.”

I hear a knock at the door, I’m scared, but I race downstairs and open the door. And there he is standing there, all sweaty, torn up jeans, no shirt and has chains in his hands.

“Ardin what are you doing here?” I say out of frustration.

He’s crooked smile makes me sick to my stomach. I ask him again. No reply just standing there smiling like a crackhead waiting for someone to drop change for their next fixing.

He walks inside and says “You’re next little lamb, we have a lot of work to do.”
