The Diary of Violet

Chapter Sixteen: Scream! It's a Nightmare!

Violet POV

I was running. I held my diary and pen tightly and I panted. My iPod was playing random songs. I looked behind me with wide eyes, my face turning red, my chest rising up and down with every breath I took, and it hurt. I saw a shadow and I screamed. I looked back in front of me and suddenly hit something. I fell back a bit before a hand grabbed mine, pulling me into a hard chest.

My hands landed on the person's chest, my head also resting against it while their arms wrapped around my waist.

"It's alright, Violet," a voice cooed. It was Ciel. My face grew red and suddenly I was pulled away by Ikuto. Ikuto suddenly yelled at Ciel.

"Don't you dare bite her!" Ikuto yelled. A pair of teeth suddenly sunk into my neck and I screamed loudly. It was Ciel. I saw Zero laughing and Ikuto's shocked look. As soon as he let go for a moment, I pushed him away, and started running again. This is all just a nightmare, right?

I felt tears well into my eyes and they blurred my vision. I screamed as I was attacked again. I was pushed against a tree, making me cough out a bit of blood.

"Why, Violet?" Ciel asked, his blood red eyes narrowing, "Why do you lie to me, Violet!" My eyes were so wide that it hurt. I screamed and pushed him away before running into Ikuto's arms. He pat my head.

"It's going to be alright, imouto*," he cooed, "Ciel's just out of control . . . I'll help him, I swear."

I was kissed upon the cheek by him and soon pushed to the ground by Zero. He was crying.

"Why don't you love me anymore, Violet?" he screamed, making my eyes widen, "Why? Why is it always Ciel!"

I managed to get away from Zero, and began running even more. It was completely dark and all I could see was a pair of red eyes and my dark world spinning. Soon I was chained to a wall, crying. It was dark and all I saw was a pair of red eyes.

I suddenly screamed, and lunged forward, springing up. I panted, wiping sweat off of my forehead.

"I was just a dream . . ." I whispered to myself soothingly. I saw my door fling open, my Father rushing to my side, his facial expression surprised and a bit scared.

"Violet! Are you alright?" he yelled, hugging me. I nodded and hugged him back, burying my face into his shirt. He stroked my hair, telling me it was just a dream.

"You should stay home today," he commented as I shook lightly. I nodded into his shoulder.

"Want to go get your homework after school?" he asked. I nodded again as my cat jumped on my bed. He laid me back down and tucked me in and went downstairs to call in the school. I sighed and pet Mitsu, wiping away a few tears. I curled up into a ball and tried my best not to cry.

"What was that dream about?" I whispered to myself as Mitsu curled up in front of my face, he large golden eyes filled with concern. I smiled.

"You know, Mitsu . . . you've been with me throw all of this," I whispered to her, "It's as if you're a part of me, you know?"

I saw Mitsu smile and I instantly dropped my smile in surprise. I sat up a bit, eyes wide. Was that just my imagination?

"Mitsu did you just . . ." I started before trailing off in thought. I shook my head. "No way. Never mind."

I laid back down, just in time for my Father to walk throw the door. He sat on my bed, his eye brows furrowed in deep thought.

"Violet, I've been thinking," he started as my eyes trailed up to the back of his head while he turned away from me, "I think . . . I think you should go to the hospital again."

I felt my eyes widen in fear, "What? Why Papa?" I felt my hands grip onto something by my side; a diary and pen.

"Well, we should get you checked out . . . I mean," he trailed off, deep in thought, "All these nightmares and such . . . it's not normal, or a good sign. You've been through enough . . . mostly because of me too. I'm so worried about you, Violet. I don't want you taken away from me."

I frowned and hugged him from behind.

"Oh, Papa . . ." I sobbed a bit, "I-I'm sorry . . ." I felt a hand touch mine. I felt him stand, so I let go. He leaned over, kissed my forehead and walked out of the door silently, giving me a small smile. I sighed and plopped down on the bed, chewing on my lip, confused and tired. I grabbed my diary and pen, opening it. I began to write.

Dear Diary,

It's been awhile. How have you been? Is that a silly question to ask a diary? Oh well, you're one of my best friends, Diary; you and my Pen. Well, Diary, I wrote a story . . . would you like to hear it? Here goes nothing:

'She unlocked her shabby old apartment, not bothering to turn on the lights. She threw her bag to the side, shaking ever so slightly. A single mistake like that, and she was through. Her head hung low, heart heavy. Her eyes were wet, lashes heavy with thick, glossy tears. Tonight, her heart was destroyed. Tonight, her love had died. Tonight . . . her world had vanished.'

Is it good so far? Anyways, today I am staying home from school . . . I had another nightmare, Diary. Is this normal? Papa says it's not . . . not in the slightest. Well, I don't get to see my friends today . . . I was looking forward to today. An old friend of mine, Tukiyo Moona, is coming to our school. Oh well, I don't believe today was the day anyways . . . Moona has always been a great friend. I think I should go now . . . I'm getting quite sleepy from lack of sleep. I'll write to you later, I promise.

Signed with Love,

Violet

As I closed the book, and set it down along with my pen, I saw a flash of red. I felt my eyes widen, and I gasped, searching for the source, but not finding a single trace of anything in particular. I sighed and shook my head, laying down and pulling the covers over my body, my head falling gently on the pillow. I closed my eyes.

"It must have been my imagination . . ." I whispered to myself, feeling Mitsu lay on my stomach.

I keep hallucinating . . .

What's wrong with me?

To be continued . . .

Moona: Hey guys! I'm sorry for such a late update!
