Matts P.O.V
I kept thinking about the thought of marrying Cheyenne. I had a feeling that it was a bad idea. What if we just get married, and she loses me? That would be the worst thing I could ever do to her. But then there was the unconditional love that made me want to marry her. I was so confused. I hand my elbows on the table, my head in my hands. My mother came up the stairs and looked at me." Matt whats wrong?" I looked at her through teary eyes.
" I dont know if I can marry her."
" Why not?" She looked sympathetic.
" What if we are just married, then I die?" She rushed over to me.
" Oh hunny dont say that, you`ll get better!" I pushed her away.
" Mom face it ok! I already know that im going to die, the doctors even said it." She started to cry." Mom im sorry." I pulled her into a hug.
" I just dont want to lose my little boy."
" Mom if you haven`t noticed, im not that little." I heard bags crinkling.
" Matt, face it, your a momma`s boy." I smiled up at Cheyenne. I went over and took the bags from her, giving her a kiss." What, did you miss me?"
" more than you could imagine. How did you get done so fast?" I looked at Wendy.
She had 4 bags in her hand and set them down on the kichen floor." Well when you have two people that know what they are doing, you get the job done." Wendy and Cheyenne gave each other a high five.
" Wendy, can you help me do a bit of cleaning up around here?"
" Sure thing, just let me put stuff away and ill be right there." My mother walked out of the room. I stood up and began to help them put stuff away. A sudden scratching sound, followed by a loud crash made us all turn our heads. The kitchen chair had flew across the room, smashed into the wall and fell on its side. Me and Matt both looked at Wendy, who just stared shocked at what happened.
" What the hell was that?"
" Wendy shh dont tell mom." Matt went over and picked it up, placing it back at the table.
" Why not?"
" Because she would think were all nuts." I looked over at Cheyenne who had her arms crossed.
" But if all of us tell her, then she would probably believe us."
" Wendy im not risking it."
She turned to leave." Where are you going?"
" To tell Sara." Cheyenne went running across the room and pinned her against the wall.
" Cheyenne let me go!" She stuggled against her.
" No were not telling Sara, it might put her in danger!" She stopped and just laid flat against the walls.
" what do you mean?"
" So far these things have only happened to me and Matt, you only just happened to be with us. Seeing as we already know about them, they only come after us and now probably you too because you know."
" What are these things?" She looked somewhat frightened.
" They are humans but they dont look it." She released her and backed up a bit." So if you want to tell Sara and endanger everyone in this house, be my guest." I walked over to Wendy, she was shaking.
" Good job you`ve scared her." I put my hands on her shoulders and rubbed them gently.
" Im sorry I just dont want her telling Sara." Wendy forced herself from my grip and walked out of the room.
Cheyennes P.O.V
Matt looked over at me and I quickly turned away. I finished placing the items in the cupboards and walked wordlessly past Matt. I went down into our room, looking slightly onto the wide open door. I took a few steps toward it and heard the stairsbehind me creak, I turned to see if someone was actually coming down the stairs. Matt looked down at me sadly." Your not mad at me are you?" I shook my head at him.
" I could never be mad at you." He walked the rest of te way down and pulled me into a hug.
" Good cause im sorry about Wendy. She just always thought that telling my mom would fix everything."
" Well she needs to learn that it wont, especially with this kind of thing." A loud pitched scraem was heard upstairs. Me and Matt booked it to the second floor. A lound banging could be heard. We found Wendy covering her ears, screaming, while looking at a dumbwaiter that was slamming open and closed.
" Make it stop!" Wendy was almost in hysterics. It slammed shut once more and stopped. Matt grabbed onto Wendy as she trembled in his arms.
" Wheres my mom?"
" She went out to get a few more things." I walked over tothe dumb waiter and shakily reached my hand out to touch it.
" What are you doing?" I jumped at the sound of Matts voice.
" I just wanted to check it out."
" Yeah, well it could open again and smash your fingers up." I looked down at my right hand. The stitches going down the side of it. I remembered how painful it was to have jut that happen and I imagined it happening to all my fingers. I cringed at the thought and pulled my hand back.
" Yeah mabye your right."
" No not mabye, I am." I turned to face them.
" Matt hurry up and find out what happened in this house so we can get the hell out."
