Just the Three of Us 2

Creative Created on 2-8-08 Views(51) Story Rating G

I frantically fumbled with my keys, desperate to find the one to the house so as not to upset him even more. I was terrified as I didn’t know what he was capable of, and as much as I was hurrying to get the key into the hole, I dreaded bringing him into my house.  Just then I remembered that we had picked up Maggie's things and put them in my house.  How could I cover that up I thought.  Finally I worked with my shaky hands and got the door open.  I stepped in, he was right behind me. Once we were inside with the door closed he let go of my neck throwing me to the ground.  "I don’t care what you think lady!  I want to know where they are and you have two minutes to tell me."  I thought quickly.  What could I tell him? Should I tell him the truth so he won’t hurt me or should I protect Maggie and Sarah? I came up with a lie, "I dropped them off at Yonder Hill Gas Station.  She was planning to get a ride from there." Then with a sudden burst of bravery i said, "Would you please leave my house.  The police are watching my house for me and they will know something is up!"

 He glared at me.  "I don’t care what the police think.  If Maggie ever asks you for help again leave them alone.  If you don’t i'll have your head!" With that he left my house slamming the door behind him.

I was very shaken.  What would I do now?  Should I go pick them up. I took responsibility for them and I cant leave them to go back to him!  I paced around the house for a moment and remembered that I left the groceries in the jeep.  I walked outside looking every which way and decided that I was safe now.  I grabbed as many bags as I could but still decided that I would need to make two trips.

 Once I finished putting the groceries away I decided to call Jenny. "Hello" she answered.

 "Jenny, is Maggie still at your house?"

"yeah shes still here. whats the matter?" I guess Jenny knew me pretty well because I was trying to act like everything was fine but she could still hear the worry in my voice.

"nothing I was just worried about them" I replied "Ill be over to get them in a minute"

"thats fine hun, wanna stay here for dinner?" she asked.

"no thats fine I just filled the cupboards and I was planning on cooking tonight. Thanks for the offer though"

"thats ok Ill see you when you get here, bye!" for some reason hanging up with Jenny gave me an awful feeling.  I felt so alone.  I have lived alone now for quite some time and I have never felt this.

I doubled checked to make sure i locked my house and then I got in the Jeep and headed to Jenny's.  I hoped that Josh wouldnt be in the neighborhood when we got back.  Protecting them will be hard considering he lives across the street.

When I got to Jenny's it was about 3 PM. I walked in.  Jenny and Maggie were sitting on the couch.  Sarah was playing with some of Jenny's knic-knacs because Jenny didnt have any toys in the house.  The TV was blaring with Spongebob.  what a dumb show i thought, i probably wouldve liked it as a kid though. We stayed at Jenny's for a while enjoying coffee and small talk.  I looked back at my watch and it was 6:30 and just starting to get dark.

 "Well i suppose it's time to get going.  Are you two ready?" i asked Maggie, although I could tell she was getting tired.  She said yes, so we all piled into the car.  When we got home the house seemed more dark then ever.  I unlocked the door with more ease as noone was holding my neck. 

We walked in and there was an air about the house that made me feel uneasy.  Maggie noticed it too as she stepped in.  "I feel like we arent alone" she whispered.

Just as I was about to answer a man came out of my kitchen with one of my knives.
