The music lyrics pounded in my eyes very loudly as I danced to the song.

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I shall die before I 'wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I've tasted blood and it is sweet
I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet
I've trusted lies and trusted men
Broke down and put myself back together again
Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters
Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger
I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers
And wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors
"Come on, little lady, give us a smile"
No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about
I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for
A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
No, I won't smile, but I'll show you my teeth
And I'ma let you speak if you just let me breathe
I've been polite, but won't be caught dead
Lettin' a man tell me what I should do in my bed
Keep my exes in check in my basement
'Cause kindness is weakness, or worse, you're complacent
I could play nice or I could be a bully
I'm tired and angry, but somebody should be
"Come on, little lady, give us a smile"
No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about
I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for
A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware
But I'd rather be a real nightmare than die unaware, yeah
Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware
But I'm glad to be a real nightmare, so save me your prayers
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night

I was in my bedroom listening to my favourite song. Once it came to an end I removed my headphones and placed them on the bed.
56Please respect copyright.PENANALQOOwGcOfo
I heard a car pulling out outside.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAfB5CqowZDe
It must be the new neighbors.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAH5WopEBbL3
I peeked on the window and indeed there was a car parked outside a few yards from my house.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA9usOZrndl0
My best friend Lisa used to stay there but unfortunately her family moved to Germany. I missed her.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAKZi7LTp9hZ
A woman with dark hair emerged from the car scolding a teenage girl with blond gold hair. Something caught my eye; it was his blue eyes that I constantly dreamt of.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAmrgoHPVzaD
Spying on the new neighbors was very childish and rude. The guy I was staring at saw me and he frowned. I quickly hid behind the curtains.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAbTs3lt5BuH
My face flushed with embarrassment.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAAPbRoJKmJv
"Oh no he definitely saw me looking" I whispered softly.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAYoXNnMqxaQ
He caught me looking at him like some stalker I sat on my bed scolding myself.
Spying on the new neighbors was definitely a bad idea.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAjNoSqo0h6m
I don't think I'll leave this room today facing the new neighbors is going to be awkward.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAFGIPBQM7i0
I slumped on the bed and a high pitched giggle escaped my lips. I could hear Bingo barking outside my door.

Hayden Willford frowned. Those brown eyes staring at him looked so familiar he just couldn't say her name it brought back too much pain.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAJU2NYq4Gam
He shrugged carelessly.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAt46hif4HD9
It must be just my imagination he thought to himself. But the strange feeling didn't leave it felt like she was close.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA07nfR4qgTu
I looked up the window and she was gone.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA2fkLeJPkEV
A little girl clung to his leg like a magnet.
He looked down and a smile curved his lips.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAdmFuz2Q91m
Theodora grins when her father picks her up.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAylmnyfxHDg
"What's up princess" he muttered quietly and tickles her Theodora squeals excitedly.
56Please respect copyright.PENANARjXWYQeT45
"Daddy I'm hungry" she says softly and pouts her lips.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAPnJYYwkDCW
"Hmmm I see. Let's go inside and I'll make you a sandwich."
56Please respect copyright.PENANAZQJmbbUL5H
Theodora nodded as they went inside the house.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAo335kqhz1K
Hayden Willford was a young man in his late twenties. He was muscular and tall in height. He had very dark hair and a rare shade of blue eyes.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAJ41KsVYSbr
Mostly his life has been full of ups and downs. Ever since he lost his wife Azalea he has never been the same.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA2vk8RrZVDB
He was shattered and heartbroken.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAcwMfbD9MfV
His family consists of his mother,father,his sister and daughter Theodora who is just six years old.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAVccf2vopRu
His family never lives in one place for a long time because his dark past always ruins their soon found happiness.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAQ33cDUrApz
Sometimes he blamed himself for all their problems all because he married a human.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAEyJsZFL99B
It was on a Saturday morning when it all began.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAm0QinxeeRu
The sunlight made the room brighter than usual. Elizabeth groaned in response when she felt something tugging her bed sheets.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAH02Ro8CAs0
"Bingo...not now boy!" She yells and pulls the bed sheets tightly. But the little husky jumped on the bed and licks her face.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAbZvmuWTnIs
Elizabeth giggles and wipes her face as little Bingo wags his small tail happily.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAV65TGSkym4
She sat upright.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAsIqbhB9Pjg
"I don't appreciate being woken up by doggy drool".
56Please respect copyright.PENANAV4MUNhgR0T
Bingo barked.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAQvSKr7RNeT
And she gave him a pat on the head and went to have a shower.
56Please respect copyright.PENANApBYeSulkDo
Twenty minutes later it was done. She was dressed in a pair of black jeans and a denim shirt. She tied her brown hair in a messy bun and went downstairs to have breakfast with her mother.

56Please respect copyright.PENANAHHFIXJPXrb
I've been avoiding the family next door and so far it's been a week and I haven't felt awakened yet.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAOciD33ayUa
"Good morning dear" mom chirped happily as I pulled my seat.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAD0D9s2War2
" Good morning mom" I said quietly while I poured some milk in my monster themed cereal.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAe0mz1hQl6Q
"You can taste the monster" I muttered coolly as I read the cereal box.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAFHWOPUHerA
Mom sighed deeply.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAfN7ocnwUTe
" Elizabeth dear I'm making a peach pie to welcome our neighbors. I've been so busy with work that I forget to say hi. When it's ready please take it to them on my behalf."
56Please respect copyright.PENANA2SKBttvWIV
I dropped my spoon in shock and gaped at my mom.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA37mZMxCgyf
Oh no this is the least thing I wanted to do right now I've been avoiding them all week it's like mom is doing this on purpose.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAX6elN5bime
I counted one to ten as I took a deep breath to calm myself.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAIQDoKFv9oQ
"But mom..." I said whine and frown but instead of scolding me mom kisses me on my forehead.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAc6ybYEs2vU
She was the best mom I could ever ask for.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAogIv0DXObW
"I love you lizzy" she says softly.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAhhSP3PWu5Q
I sigh deeply.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA9S38jwmOGL
"I love you too mom."
56Please respect copyright.PENANAwjgbQhv7uz
She smiled and left for work .
56Please respect copyright.PENANAWn0DpvlJ7M
Once I was done with breakfast I stared at the pie in the oven like it was my worst enemy.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAqCmOmAj16i
This meant war and I wasn't going down without a fight. My hips swayed to the song that was playing on my mp3 player.

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Love's my religion but he was my faith
Something so sacred so hard to replace
Fallin' for him was like fallin' from grace
All wrapped in one he was so many sins
Would have done anything, everything for him
And if you ask me I would do it again
No need to imagine
'Cause I know it's true
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
You don't realize the power they have
Until they leave you and you want them back
Nothing in this world prepares you for that
I'm not ashamed that he wasn't the one
Had no idea what we would become
There's no regrets I just thought it was fun
No need to imagine
'Cause I know it's true
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
I still remember the moment we met
The touch that he planted, the garden he left
I guess the rain was just half that effect
No need to imagine
'Cause I know it's true
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
They say, "All good boys go to heaven"
But bad boys bring heaven to you
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

An hour later I placed the pie on the counter and it was ready.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAyzW7vFoIoK
I went upstairs to my bedroom and wrapped a scarf around my neck and only my eyes and nose were visible.
Once I was satisfied with my look I went downstairs.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAm2rUNebi8d
He wouldn't recognize.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA84I4jh6qQh
Five minutes later I was ringing the doorbell. I heard footsteps and I felt suddenly nervous.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAWADed3w8bM
The guy I was stalking opened the door shirtless wearing grey sweatpants that clung to his hips and exposed his torso.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAm0cEEg5fbm
Oh my.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAxrzx91uxC4
Our eyes locked in a frenzy before he could open his mouth. I blinked and shoved the pie and note into his hands.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAJztaTt1vxr
I quickly ran back home. I swear I've never ran so fast in my entire life. My heart was thumping wildly in my chest as I took off the scarf.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAjqXPfEbiK0
Wow he was hot.
