"Are you enjoying the sun?" A voice spoke to the right of me. I opened my eyes to the beautiful sun shining on me. The sound of crashing waves, seagulls, laughing children and parents filled my ears.

I was on a beach, and it was absolutely beautiful outside.

I saw my parents in the distance playing in the water. They were splashing each other and for the first time in what seemed like years, they were laughing and kissing each other. Completely filled with happiness.

I smiled, and looked to my right to see who the person is talking to me.

Her beautiful blue eyes met mine.

"Bella...." I said sitting up a bit.

She let out a laugh, and looked at our parents. I couldn't take my eyes off of her.

"...I wanted to be like that...I wanted to grow old and have children, have a husband that loved me....too bad how things worked out..." She spoke.

I took my eyes off of her, and then looked at my parents.

This is just a dream.

I laid back down on my elbows.

"It must be hard on you. They work 24/7 to escape the pain they feel inside....you guys don't even spend time with each other.............I'm sorry that I did that to you guys, sorry for what I did to you." Bella said.

I closed my eyes, as I felt an emotional pain run throughout my body. Things have never been normal for me, but there's no one to blame for that.

Bella couldn't control it. She loved us, she loved me, but everything got the best of her.

"It's okay Bella.....I forgive you.." I spoke.

We sat in silence.

"You're strong...you know that right?" I heard her sniffle. I continued to keep my eyes closed though, not wanting to see her crying.

I don't know if I'm that strong Bella, I don't know if I'm that strong.

I jolted awake. My mouth was covered with duck tape, and my hands and feet were tied. My bare stomach was exposed, and there was a deep cut in it. Blood was oozing out of it slowly.

I couldn't move.

I had a pounding headache, and could barely keep one of my eyes open.

I was curious to what had happened, or where was I, but then I remembered everything.

I'm in "Blaire's" poorly lit dining room on the floor.

It has to be at least 10:00pm now, where are my parents? Where are the cops? There had to be someone that noticed the blood or dead bodies in the streets. There has to be someone looking for me.

Unless they were cleaned up.

I looked around moving my head to see if I could spot anything else, but as I looked to the right, there he was.

Danny.

He was laying right next to me on the floor, tied up as well beaten badly, and had duct tape covering his mouth.

He was unrecognizable.

An upside down cross was cut on the front of his forehead, and his face was bruised and cut so badly, he looked purple.

All over his body, he was covered in dried blood, and looked as if he hadn't eaten in weeks. He looked like he lost at least thirty pounds.

My eyes widened as my breathing got heavier.

Is he dead?

I began to cry.

"There we go, the queen is awake." I heard a voice speak.

I shook, and looked around to see who it was coming from.

It was Michael.

He got up from the chair he was sitting in, and walked over to us.

I screamed through the tape and tried wiggling around to get away, but I was weak, and my leg and stomach had the greatest pain ever in them.

"There's no point my beautiful Rose, just stop."

However I didn't.

"I said STOP!" I heard him scream.

With that, I stopped moving, and stared at him in fear.

He looked the same, but had a light beard covering his lower face.

He let out a laugh.

"Crazy right?...well first let me say this to you...bravo for figuring everything out Miss Rose Adam's...surprised you didn't... connect the dots sooner when you looked at my name I carved into your wrist the night you were foolishly drunk....but...didn't you hear the line..'curiosity killed the cat'?" He spoke staring me down with his sharp blue eyes.

I looked away and stared at Danny.

God please if you're hearing this prayer, get Danny and I out of here. Forgive us for our sins and let us be saved. I don't want to die.

I don't want to die.

"Oh don't worry, he's still alive." Michael spoke walking over to Danny. He then kicked him.

Danny let out a cry, as well did I.

"And if you think your FUCKING God can save you, you're wrong. I AM GOD!" Michael yelled so harshly, a few of his veins popped out of forehead and neck.

I closed my eyes.

God, please.

"-I..just don't understand why you wanted to go against me Rose. You broke my heart. But it's okay, I'll forgive you in the future but you're still going to have to make shit up....it's just...so awesome how YOU moved in across the street from me! I've been waiting for you Rose...ever since the day I saw you visit your sister at St.Judes, I looked at your little face...your little hands...and knew you were mine...you see-I had a vision. I had a vision that you and I were together and we had our own family, it was amazing...ok?......I thought about how I could be everything you wanted...a protector...a lover....everything you didn't have when you were younger.....I would always talk to your sister about you...of course there was the huge age difference...but I wanted you Rose. And now I have you!.....your sister always told me it wouldn't happen..that I was just as sick as she is.....so I of course killed her to make her shut the fuck up with that annoying...mouth of hers. And look at where we are..." He laughed

I continued to close my eyes. Trying not to imagine any of this.

He killed Bella.

"-and I'm not sorry for it, but I'm sorry that you're probably hurt by it. But it's was the BEST thing for us, it was the only thing that would make this work. It's not like she was that much of a sister anyways though, right?...."

She loved me. She WANTED to protect me.

"-....Everyone that I've killed...I just pictured it being you...but you see...just...none of it was the same....I tried seeing if I could picture them being you, and sometimes it worked, somethings it didn't. But they betrayed me, they turned against me!...you turned against me!...LOOK AT ME!" He yelled at me.

I didn't obey.

I heard footsteps walking towards me, and before I knew it, my head was harshly jerked upwards and my eyes were forcefully pulled open with Michael's blood and dirt stained fingers.

"Last warning you fucking bitch!" He shouted while slamming my head to the ground.

I let out a scream of pain. Tears continued to run down my face.

"I don't want to hurt you my love, I love you so so so much..." He spoke caressing my cheek and hair.

I then felt him plant his lips across my forehead, and his tongue slide against it as well. I let out a shiver.

He then moved over down towards my stomach, and placed his lips over my cut and sucked the blood from it.

I screamed through the duck tape in pain.

He laughed looking at me, and placed one of his fingers my stomach in the blood, and brought it up towards my face leaving a print in the center of my forehead.

He then got up, and made his way towards the front of the room.

I turned to the side to see if Danny had his eyes open.

He did, and they were bloodshot red.

"I have another surprise for you Rose, let me go get it. Until then, I'll let you guys talk."

He walked over to us, and ripped the ducktape off of our mouths.

Atomically I took a deep breath letting more oxygen get into my lungs.

I could taste the blood running into my mouth.

When Michael left the room, I looked over at Danny. He was crying.

"D-Danny..." I tried to speak. He looked up at me with his watery blood shot eyes. I bit my lip and let out a sob.

"I'm so sorry......I'm going to get us out of here, okay? I promise I am.."

Right then I tried moving my hands as I began to shiver. It was unbelievably freezing in here, and I could sense my cut beginning to get solid cold in the inside.

The ropes are tied too tightly around my wrist, as well as my feet.

This is impossible.

"How are my parents." Danny spoke squeezing his eyes shut.

I looked at him.

"Worried sick about you...everyone has been.." I responded shaking.

If today is the day I die...please..let it be fast God.

"And Nina..?" Danny questioned. I wonder if he knows.

I gulped.

"She's recovering, Blai-Michael hit her with a car..."

"I know...he told me.....but he said he killed her, and my parents..." He said opening his eyes in relief, while taking deep breaths. Tears ran down his face.

I nodded my head, and looked up at the ceiling.

"...I'm sorry Danny..."
