Chapter 2: Love the way you Lie
I held the letter firmly in my hand. I was utterly shocked, a big change is coming, people may die, and an ominous note to enjoy my evening. Maybe it was a joke, a prank, but whoever left this has a dark sense of humor. I needed to tell Landon, but how, I mean what do I do walk up to him and say, "Hey honey I someone just left a note at the door promising death and destruction.", how the hell do you work that into a conversation?! I can deal with this later, I thought as I stuffed the letter in my pocket and walked back inside.
"Well speak of the devil and he shall appear, what took you so long?", Stacey asked. She was sitting on the arm of the couch next Landon, waving me over. "Who was at the door?", he asked. Well damn now what was I supposed to do! Making a split second decision I answered, "Oh, just some guy selling magazines.", "Oh ok then.", he said and went back to watching the football game. "You ok Chloe, you look a little sick?", Jessaca asked. The truth is, I was feeling sick. I really never lied to Landon, and when I did there was always a good reason, like a Christmas present, or when we first got married and I told him that I had made sure I had brought my check book to pay off the dj at the reception when I really didn't have it. You know good little white lies, never something huge like this. And to be honest I was making my feel like I was going to throw up. "Um, yeah I'm fine.", I finally answered, "You sure?", she inquired. Feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place I was saved when Taliyah and Jr. came rushing down the stairs, pretending to make Jr. 's toy fighter jets fly. The two ten year olds stopped abruptly in front of me, "Is dinner ready yet?", asked Jr. "Yeah we're starving.", Taliyah added. I glanced at Landon for an answer, but he had started cheering on the winning football team with Jack, Tobias, and Stacey. "Why don't I go check.", I told them. As I walked out of the room and into the kitchen, I saw Anastasia cheering with Tobias. I laughed silently. The reason this was so funny was because Annie didn't even like football. But she had a major crush on Tobias. Her brown curls bounced as they jumped up and shouted at the screen with everyone else.
I felt a pang in my chest as I watched them all. Jessaca talking with Jack. Stacey cheering with Landon. Taliyah and Jr. playing. Annie and Tobias awkwardly talking and laughing. Tomorrow it could all be gone. I thought this over as I served dinner. I had to do something, I was not going to sit there and watch it all disappear. I worked hard to get my life out of misery and to the way it was today, I was not just going to let whatever is coming take it from me. Urghh, think Chloe! You don't even know what's going to happen! , I thought. I knew I was right, no matter how hard you try, you can't fight something you can't see. I reached in my pocket and felt the crumpled note, I realized I couldn't do this alone.
I should have told Landon.
Sooo, how was that! Ch 3 should be up soon.
