2. Scarlet

A Chapter by Weaza

"Hello Scarlet." a cold voice says softly, as in talking while the wind blows. "No... It can't be..." I whisper to myself, I sit up and notice Shane isn't next to me. I look at the open door at the frame and see the shadow figure of a man. "Derick..." "Yes, hello. Again." "You are dead." "Way to speak the obvious! You haven't heard of dream meetings?" "No..." I push back against the post of my bed. "Scarlet, Scarlet. How is our darling Demitra? I actually love her name, close to my name isn't it?" "Go away Derick." he lays next to me, "You cried for me, I was there Scarlet remember I am still here. You may not be able to see me but I am." "I didn't cry for you..." "You still love me, you want me. I know Shane doesn't give you what you want, what you need." he breathes in my ear. Thunder and lightning flash through the room. "Derick...Please..." "You can bring me back, Scarlet...You want me...Say it!" "No..." "Scarlet...Its me or our daughter. Scarlet, our daughter is stronger than you and better. I will have you or her. I know you hate her, she reminds you of me. Me, Scarlet. ME!" the lightning strikes and he is gone. "Derick...oh Derick...Why?" I whisper as I close my eyes and snuggle deeper in the bed.
