December 10th. Little did I know what was about to happen.

I was out with Chrissy to talk about our boyfriends like two good friends always do.

"So how was it?"

"How was what?"

"The sex."

"Oh well umm..."

I blushed as I remembered the time I slept with Justin. Twice so far. We were planning on going out to see the snow when he gets out of work around 5.

"It was definitely something else. I can't describe it just feels amazing."

"I know right. And after Trent agreed to move in with me and Conan it's been nothing but nonstop laughs together."

"He's living with you now."

"Yup, he really is a blessing for me ans my son. Trent is what we both needed. We were both ready so moving in wasn't a problem. I think I love him too much."

"There's no such thing as 'too much love' Chrissy. It's something you both feel without saying much you just express it and it happens."

"So is that how it feels when you have sex with him?"

"Chrissy!!"

"What? I wouldn't blame you."

"It's more than sex with Justin. We want to have a life together we have it all planned out and everything. We're going to move away-"

I froze when I realized that I told Chrissy too soon.

"Wait you're going to leave with him?"

"Chrissy no that's not what I meant-"

"I thought I was your friend! Yet the minute you get a new boyfriend, you're going to leave with him? Did you ever stop to think about how I would feel about my best friend leaving without even thinking of telling me?"

"Chrissy I was going to tell you- I just-"

"Didn't have the time? You don't even have a job Maple how can you not have the time to talk to me or spend time with your friend?!"

Chrissy left completely angry and in tears. I followed after her.

"I was looking for a new job and I didn't want to bother you and Trent like last time. The reason me and Justin want to leave is not even because of that. You wouldn't believe me if I told you!"

Chrissy halted as she was going to open her car door.

"Try me Maple."

"It's- it's because-"

My emotions got the better of me that I couldn't bring myself to tell her. She just sighed and told me I'll see her later and left.

I texted Justin asking when he should be out of work but he said it will be later than usual.

So with deep fear I slowly walked back home.

I arrived feeling anxious, this was the first time I was at my house alone for a while. When I was in these situations I know I was never safe.

I grimaced when the front door was unlocked and stepped inside the house.

I peeked into the kitchen to see mom looking hungover and sitting next to the counter top.

Feeling afraid that she would spot me I tried to tiptoe to my room safely.

But she looked up and called my name, telling me to come here. I sucked a quick breath and walked over my heart rate increasing. I stood a comfortable distance away from her.

"Yes mom?"

"Don't call me mom! You know exactly what I'm here to talk about bitch!"

"No I don't."

"You know that cash of money I found a little distance away from the house?"

"What about it?"

"That wasn't the money you've been hiding from me- to escape right?"

I flinched slightly but I took a breath before speaking.

"No of course not."

I looked up narrowly avoiding a wine bottle she tossed at me in time.

"DON'T FUCKING LIE TO ME YOU LITTLE SHIT! YOU AND YOUR BOYFRIEND WERE PLANNING TO LEAVE ME ALONE JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER!"

"Don't you dare talk about him- AH!"

I dodged another and began to leave the kitchen in fear.

"AND YOU KNOW WHAT MAPLE- Hahahahahah! You're not fucking leaving!"

She ran to me and grabbed my arm. I froze in terror as she smiled at me with an evil smile.

I didn't have time to react as she hit my head hard and the world faded to black.

I woke up on the cold floor the room I was in completely dark. I tried to move but my arms were bound.

I tried looking around to see anything but I couldn't see in the darkness. I froze when I heard footsteps approaching.

It was like this for about a minute when a blinding light turned on in my face and I flinched when my mom peered down at me looking like a complete psycho.

"Ah Maple why can't you just be a good daughter and stay with me? Why do you have to be like your father and want to leave with you? And then that soft asshole comes into our life and I admit it was fun to be with him but boy was he not even close to a man for me. At least I get to kill him too."

"Wh- what?"

"Oh that's right. You don't know that I killed your precious daddy. God what a weak man he was. He couldn't handle a strong woman like me. He wanted to take you with him. So I stabbed him just like my boyfriends."

I was confused and afraid as I took in all this information. Mom left to go flip a light switch and the light turned on to reveal the four boyfriends lifeless bodies, yet still the same as the were all wearing stitches on their necks. Doug was there too only with fresh blood on his.

I gasped in horror with what I was witnessing.

"It's a shame I didn't get to keep your father. It would have been nice to see the look on your face to see his stuffed body too."

"So that day...he didn't kill himself...you did?"

"Hahahahahahaha! I did him a favor. Either he left with you because I became 'a souless drunk' or I killed him. Nobody leaves me...Hehehehe! So I did it! I knocked him with my bottle so he can get a taste of my elixir and stabbed him the throat so I can't heart his fucking voice! HehehehHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! And now my daughter Maple it's your turn!"

Oh my god I'm gonna die.
