The monster.

He's always watching, waiting for me to slip up. I don't though because I know better now. The drugs have become addicting. He won't let me stop taking them because he knows I'll leave him.

He feels threatened by Duncan. I reassure him nothing is going on between us, but he isn't convinced. I'm worried he might hurt him.

If I'm being completely honest, Duncan isn't just my best friend. I'm in love with him, but I can't risk the monster finding out or he'll kill us both for sure. Maybe dying isn't such a bad thing? I told Duncan this but he's afraid to die, thinks he's too young. We're only 17. I want to die, but I can't leave Duncan behind.

Duncan believes it's his fault we're in this situation. I don't say anything because we both know it's true. I don't let him wallow in self pity though. whenever he gets into one of those moods I simply distract him the best way I know how.

The monster is getting angry. I won't let him touch me. I keep saying it's that time of the month, but I know he knows I'm lying. He says if I don't give him what he wants he's going to kill me. I tell him to kill me because I don't love him. He laughs that evil laugh which lets me know something bad is about to happen.

Someone... anyone... help me.
