Chapter 4
Dan had to be careful not to wake Renee. He was
perched in the maple tree outside her bedroom window, waiting for her
to fall into a deep sleep. She had gone to bed at 2:00, that was when
she got home. It was now 2:15. The wind blew slowly around him as he
sat. Finally, he moved close to the window and pulled it
open.
The room was warm inside. pink and green flower decorations coverd the walls. Picture of friends covered the counters and bookshelves, leaving no space open. In one corner of the room was a small single twin bed in which Renee lay sleeping. The covers were pulled up to her neck and her hair was spred around her pillow.
*She's so pretty,* Thought Dan, *I've got to make this fast.*
Dan kneeled gentle on the side of her bed. He pulled the covers down a little as to reach her neck. He carefully pulled her hair to one side so he could clearly see her face. Then he was ready. He set his left hand upon her head, just above the back of her neck. Closing his eyes, he pictured what had just happend. From the thing at Johnny Rockets, up to the time she looked in the mirror at her bruises, he earsed her memory. When he finished, he replaced it with an image of her and the others in Johnny Rockets, but nothing else happening. He put in the image of her leaving with everyone else, her waiting for him and them fighting off a few demons. When he finished, he opened his eyes, hoping he had done it right. He rememberd the warning he had come accross once when he last tried to erase a memory.
Listen and be warned
You erase a memory
You erase a soul
Those who you care for go forlorn
For with every good,
There comes a bad
And the things you think are gone
Come back to the simple mind
The warning did not make much sence to him, but he was sure to be careful afterwards. He was sure to erase the whole memory, and to replace it with another that he makes up. he wanted so badly to put a diffrenct kind of memory in her mind, maybe the simple thought of them together. He wanted to so badly, but he did not want to face the damage he mit inflick her upon. He didnt know what complications, or concenquences might face him, and he didnt want o hurt her any more than he already had.

Renee awoke with a pounding headache. She looked at the alarm clock on her side table. It read 6:30 am. Renee felt as though she hadnt slept more than a few hours, but she knew she had gone to bed at 11:00, so she didnt know why she was so tired.
She pulled the covers from over her body and swong her legs over the side of the bed onto the wooden floor below. Her feet slapped against its coolness as she walked to her bathroom. Renee flipped on the light, letting the small white room fill with a golden white light. She walked blindly to her medicen cabnet and pulled out a few bottles.
*antidepressents.... peroxide.... calcium.. aha! ibroprofine....*
Renee opened the small white bottle and dumped out two small pink tablets. she swallowed them both whole and gulped down some water from the sink. as she looked up into her clean mirror, she gasped. there was a large bruise upon her neck, as if someone had chocked her, the strange thing was that she didnt remember anything to do with it. Renee rubed her neck, gently fingering over the strange bruises. Renee decided it was probably nothing, so she got dressed and tried to cover them up with as much coverup she could as so not to look like she had something wrong with her.
Dan waited at Renees door step. He always waited for her before going to school. He knocked on her door.
Once
Twice
Three times before he heard her running down the staires and grabbing her books, all the while calling "OK, OK, I'm comming. Hold on!"
A second latr, Renee walked out the door.
"Hey, sorry to make you wait. I had a little problum." She said as she walked to his side. They walked down from her house and turned out to the street. they walked halfway to school before anyone talked.
"Hey,ummm, Dan?"
"Hmmm?"
"Umm, this morning i woke up with a strange bruise on my neck, but i cant remember how it happend. Maybe, you could tell me if i was choked when we faught that thing last night?" Renee questioned in an almost childish tone.
*Shit, I knew I forgot something....*
"Dan?"
"Huh? Oh, yea. that. That happened last night. You were unconciouse. probably why you dont remember it happaning." Dan said still staring infront of him.
"Oh, well now I dont have to worry. Thanks." Renee added as they walked up the stone steps to the school. "see you at lunch. M'k? Bye!" she added when she saw Tanner a few feet away from them.
Dan watched as she ran away from him and into Tanners arms. a white hot anger filled him as he watched them kiss. He watched in remorce and spite as they pulled apart, only to join once again. his white hot anger grew so he could feel it around him like a .... bubble? (cant think of anything.. haha) He turned and walked sulkingly to his first class, silently swearing to himself, and to her, that he will soon make her his.
Not as long as I woula hoped, but still quite good, i think. sam, you can edit it if you want. th pass word is my characters last name.
THINK, SAM! THINK HARD!!!!!
