Today was colder than usual.
I could feel the hairs of my arm stand up, as I stepped outside of my apartment I shared with some friends.
It was barely Monday and I was already tired. The sun was beginning to rise without delay. My favorite part of the day. I liked to daydream and reminisce about certain things on my way to the city bus stop. My boots sunk in the mud, scrapping against the gravel as I tried to tip toe along the sidewalk. It has rained last night so there was puddles everywhere. I didn't mind walking in silence it soothed me. I passed a block, before I noticed a tapping sound. It sounded distant but close enough that I knew it was near. Besides from hearing cars in the nearest intersection I could hear this tapping sound. Maybe I was just overreacting.
I continue to walk and try not to notice, One, two, three....
I swiftly turn around hoping I'd catch whatever it was, but only see nothing but a cat following right behind me.
Phew. Thank god.
"Aww you so cute" I laugh to myself holding on to my chest. I take out my phone and check the time. "Here I am, hearing things" I laugh, I'm running late going miss the bus if I don't hurry up.
I continue my way to the end of the street. just another block to the right and I would be at the bus stop.
Again there was that rhythmical tapping from before.
I abruptly stop. I turn around and expect to see the cat following me again, but this time I see nothing but an empty street.

"Boo!"
Everything turns blurry and I suddenly fade into darkness.
====
Blocks of blurry things start to appear as I open my eyes. I squint my eyes and blink twice to try to make out what it is. My head is throbbing in pain and I have no idea why.
I lean forward, ouch!
My hands are tied to the arms of a chair?
"Whaat?" I mumble.
Looking straight ahead I come clear to my surroundings. The room is cold, dark and slightly dirty. The walls are painted gray and nothing but a single bed and the chair I'm tied to are in the room.
What am I doing here?
I begin to hyperventilate and start squirming around in my chair, no use. Not only my wrists were tied but my legs were too. I notice my pockets feel light and my purse is gone. My phone is gone, shoot.
This can't be happening.
"I've been waiting for you". A voice so clear and smooth echoed across the room. It sent chills down my spine. I knew it was the kidnapper but I didn't dare to look up, I couldn't.
My breath became visible in the cold room, I shudder in fear.
"Look at me" the kidnapper yells
Reluctantly I do. I turn to my left and see a man leaning against the doorway with his arms crossed. He had to be no more than in his late twenties. His face perfectly aligned; jawed. But there was a dark twisted smile on his face, it didn't match his handsome face.
"Welcome Susan" he voice radiates the room.
Help me.

Violet soon finds herself becoming rather close with one in particular..."I'm not entirely sure I even knew what constituted 'love,' until I had met him. Now the mere thought of him made me ache to be with him, to look at him, to touch him. I couldn't quite put my feelings into words. Even as I try, few seem to suffice. An entire sea of ink could not adequately describe my feelings towards him. It was almost as if all the stars in the sky were condensed into a single, twinkling one.
