A Dark Love To Hold
A Special Start
"No what are you doing?! Run Jack,Run!",she was covered in blood and starting to make her way towards me. I tired to move but failed after so much attempts.
"I can't move! Help me someone please help!",i cried out and struggled some more. Why can't I move? What the hell is holding me back?
"Wake up!",she screamed.
I jolted upwards and gasped. I was breathing heavily and sweating in fear of my dream. My hand touch my cheek and realized It was damped with my tears. I glanced at my clock which read 6:00,I signed and got up from bed. There's definitely no point in going back to sleep so I might as well shower and get ready for my day. I made my way towards the bathroom and turned on the water. It was warm enough and stripped of my boxer's and stepped inside.
Ever since we moved away from my old home to Baltimore,I rarely had that dream. Why do I have it more frequently now? I've told May and my father about it but all they do is say it's a dream with no meaning and leave it at that. I want to think that but it's hard to assume when they talk about it in secret. Last time I claimed answers from them, May simply said I was to young to understand. I think it's because I give them trouble. Not the sort of trouble,but being attracted by accidents. I always mange to get hurt in some way,which makes them constantly worried about me.
I turned off the water and step out to dry myself. I put on a clean boxer and began to dress in a plain black long sleeve shirt and grey skinny jeans. I take a look at the mirror, all I see staring back is a worn out teen. I was too deep in thought to notice May standing against the door.
"Breakfast is ready. Are you okay?",she walked over and placed a her small hand on my cheek.
"I just had the same dream about her....but am fine.",i look into her eyes and I suddenly feel more relaxed. I gave her a small smile to which she returned. She walked to the kitchen while I straightened my hair. Once I was satisfied I began making my way down stairs,and greeted by my brothers and father sitting down and May setting a plate on the table for me to take.
"Jack there's something I would like to tell you.", my father said with a serious tone. I look up and wait for him to go on.
"May and myself decided that you began school tomorrow.",he smiled slightly.
"Your serious? I mean I haven't been to school in awhile...",i can't seen to find the right emotion to feel. Happy? Upset? It's true that I haven't been in school, May always taught us and dad would always train us. I never questioned it,only because they give me the same answer. 'Your too young to understand' or 'dont give it much thought'.
"Your 17 years old jack,i think your ready to live a normal teenage life. Plus we think it's best instead of seeing you so sad being locked up here.", May said while taking a bite of her pancakes.
I smiled widely and giggled,i jumped out of my seat and run towards my father and May giving them a big hug.
"Thank you guys so much! this means so much to me,you guys won't regret it.",I didn't notice I was crying until May wiped away a tear.
"Silly, I guess we have to go shopping for some clothes and supplies.",she said.
-------------------------Time relapse-------------------------------
"Okay May,how do I look? And be honest please.",i pleaded. I start school today and let me tell you am nervous as hell. I didn't think to much of it yesterday.
"For the 5th time,yes jack. Now do you have everything ready?",she said while looking for her car keys.
"Yep checked twice.",i said fixing my hoodie string.
"Alright, oh hold on there's something I want to give you.",she runs upstairs to her room. I patiently wait for her until she comes back down and makes her way towards me.
"Here, it's a necklace. Put it on",am confused by this but do as she asks. I take a look at the necklace,its a tiny bottle filled with a black liquid.
"Hm thanks but what type of necklace is this?",i pointed it out. Now that am thinking about it,why is she even giving me this?
"Dont worry to much about it. Let's get going or else your going to be late."she said making her way towards her car.
The drive was short,which probably mean that am going to walk from now on. Once may drops me off at the front gate I step out and see that the school is quite big. I take a deep breathe and make my way inside. I have absolutely no idea where the office is or anything and there's no one in sight to ask for help. Great,am late for my first day. I guess I had a confused and upset look on because a tall toned out guy stoped at his tracks and turn to look at me. He slowly walk to me and held out his hand.
"Hey your new huh? Am Zachary Herrick but I go by Zack. Need help finding the office?",he said while smiling at me. Well he seems nice, for all I know he maybe the last person to talk to me.
"Hm y-yes please. Oh am Jack Barakat by the way.",I shake his hand and start to follow him to the office.
"I can't move! Help me someone please help!",i cried out and struggled some more. Why can't I move? What the hell is holding me back?
"Wake up!",she screamed.
