Chapter 12
When I get home I rush to my room and turn on the light in my bedroom. I have a plan. Mom and dad are out of town this weekend. They went on a boating expedition with some of their friends along the eastern coastline. They told us we could have people over since it was Homecoming weekend and they expected we would do it anyways. I know Alex has plans with Kaitlyn, just Kaitlyn. I have plans of my own.
I pull my laptop out from under my bed and look up Cole and Ollie’s last names. Their names are just as questionable as Edmund’s last name. Just because, I look up all of their first names too. Then, I type up more ‘evidence’ to the growing list of ‘weird happenings’.
Oliver: army, warrior. Samson: sun.
Cole: charcoal. One with dark features.
Astaroth: demonology text refers to masculine demon!?!
Ollie and Cole’s conversation: more of your kind, someone’s wings, master, accomplish a goal, fallen?
Then at the bottom of that I write:
Please, if you Love me, tell me what it means.
I copy the dream I had of his voice, the night I fell asleep on the beach and add it to the bottom of the list. I know it fits. I know now that he was telling me something while I was unconscious because he was afraid, or couldn’t, tell me while I was awake.
I hit the print button, save the document, and slide the laptop back under my bed. I hurry up, gathering a few items around my room and run downstairs to retrieve the paper from my parent’s printer. Then I lock up the house and run across the street to Cole’s.
I know from my frequent visits over here that he has a bad habit of leaving his back door unlocked. I push at the door and it slides right open. I don’t know when he is going to come back so I hurry over to the stairs and leave the ‘weird happenings’ evidence sheet on the bottom step. Then, I proceed up the stairs to his bedroom. I’m going to wait him out; even if it takes all night for him to ‘talk’ to someone and come back. I will wait for as long as it takes. I’ll wait forever.
*
It feels like I do wait forever. I waited so long that I fell asleep, which is why I planned on waiting in his bedroom. Last thing I remember was looking at the clock to see that it was after two o’clock in the morning. If he had gone back to the Homecoming dance he would have been there till about eleven. That left him with three hours to go ‘talk’ to someone. What if he didn’t ever come back? What if Ollie or Samson or whoever he is scared him off? These thoughts haunt me as I wait for him and finally fall asleep.
When I wake up it’s to a voice talking to me softly. Calling my name. I open my eyes and notice its pitch black in the room.
