Running Away

Chapter 2: The End of the Flashback

Flashback continues:

Crack!

What was that?

I shook my head and told myself I was hearing things.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

That was when I realized someone was following me.

Instead of turning around and facing my stalker, I ran.

I ran as far as I could go.

Eventually, I halted to a stop and started to breathe rapidly.

I was safe now, I thought.

I was a few steps away from my house. A few small steps, that's it.

As I started to calm down a little bit, I heard coughing.

Cough! Cough!

I turned around slowly, knowing that people were around me and my house was only a few steps away.

There he was. I couldn't exactly see his face as he was still inside the forest and it was very dark, but I saw him. I saw his shadow.

He was running. Running towards me!

I could make out something in his hands. It looked as though he was holding a garbage bag in his left hand and in his right hand he had.., a gun?! Oh, it definitely looked like a gun!

Was he planning on kidnapping me?!

I panicked as the guy with the gun was only a few feet away from me.

I screamed.

I screamed at the top of my lungs.

I could see the shocked look on my neighbours faces as they approached me, but I didn't take my eyes off of that man.

He was close enough to make out his eyes. His shining grey eyes. I could make out an expression from his eyes. He looked surprised. As if he did not expect me to do that. He didn't expect me to scream even though he had a gun.

However, his surprised eyes left me as soon as the lady next door came to pat me on my shoulder.

He ran. He actually ran. He ran deep inside the forest. As he left, I saw something drop near him.

"Are you alright, dear?" Mrs. Taylor asked with a concern look on her face.

"Oh, yes, of course. Thank you. Um, I just thought I saw a spider. I'm Arachnophobic, actually," I replied with, fake, embarrassed eyes.

"Oh, ho, That's alright, dear. It happens sometimes. I've probably screamed a million times because of teeny, tiny ants. Are you'll be alright, though?" She asked, with a kind smile.

"Yes. I'll be fine now. I'm really sorry about disturbing you, though," I said.

"No, no. That's okay. I'll see you around, then. Take care," And with that, she turned around and started walking towards her house.

"Bye!" I shouted back.

After making sure no one was looking anymore, I quickly went towards the direction my stalker had stood and turned on my cell phone's light. I scattered the light around the ground for several seconds until I saw a black leather wallet sitting on a heap of grass.

Flashback ends

To be continued...

Hey!

I am extremely sorry if the chapter's short. I honestly tried my best to write more, but I haven't found the time to do that.

If you have an idea for this story, please share! I haven't written the next chapter yet, so some new ideas will be nice to add to the story.

Please tell me what you thought about this chapter.

I'm not really happy with this chapter but at least I tried.

I was actually going to update this sooner but my sister and I started a watching this really good movie called One Day. It stars Anne Hathaway (she has a British accent in it. :P) and this really cute British actor, Jim Sturgess. Either way, it kind of reminded me of Sonny and Chad. Honestly, a story loosely based on this movie, which is actually based on a novel of the same name, would be incredible!

So, yeah. I recommend that you watch it and read the novel. I haven't read the novel. I will, however, try to read it very soon.

Anyways, 10 REVIEWS=UPDATE!

Peace out Suckahs! :P

R. :D (For those people who don't already know my name, I challenge you to guess what the "R" stands for. :P I'll know how many people actually read my author's notes then. :P I'll give everyone who tries a shout out! :D)
