A/N: Man it's been forever since I've updated this story! I must apologise for not updating my computer crashed. Then we got it fixed in time for school. THEN I was wieghed down with home work from all my Acadimic Honors classes and my dad had to go to court so I had to go and testify against him and blah blah blah I've basically been running my ass off the past several months so please forgive me. Updates will be rare because I have 4 weeks of acting camp. 1 week of driving school. Several trips I need to go on and to top it all off I have bass lessons. So please find it in your heart to forgive me! As always John's POV and my writing is not that great and blah blah blah I'm rambling so I'll just get to writng now!

Thanks: to my beta reader desolatestate!

Long lost words whisper slowly to me

Still can't find what keeps me here

When all this time I've been so hollow inside

I know you're still there

Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Fearing you loving you

I won't let you pull me down

Hunting you I can smell you - alive

Your heart pounding in my head

Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Saving me, raping me, watching me

Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Fearing you... loving you

I won't let you pull me down

I woke up in the hospital, my mom next to me. She looked tired, angry, sad but most of all lost, like if she were to lose me she would tumble into a dark abyss. I reached out and touched her hand gently. She jerked out of her thoughts and looked at me. A look of happiness came across her face, but that lost, hopeless look still remained in her eyes.

"How are you?" she asked after a moment of ackward silence.

I sollowed thickly. "Fine" I said. She nodded as though she understood, but I could tell she was confused.(Good lets keep it that way.)

Another moment of ackward silence fell between us. Until that is my mother decided to break it.

"Why'd you do it, John?" she asked suddenly.

"...I-I...I don't know" I said.(Lie. Liar! Why can't you tell her the truth?)

Because she wouldn't understand. She'd lock me up.

I was realesed two days later. I didn't get alot of visitors. Becky came once, but she was distant. Like i was someone she didn't know. My dad never came (Psh like I expected him to).

I was ,of course, now required to see a pschiatrist. (Not a big surprise). His name was Dr. Schobal. (Heh more like Dr. Douch-bag!) That man needed a pschiatrist more then me.

"Hello, John, My name is ." -bag said. He was a tall, thin, balding man in his late forties.

I smirked at him. "Fine" I said forcefully (Man this is going to be a loooooong fucking hour!)

"So...lets get started. Why don't you tell me something about yourself?" he said looking through some file.

I smirked again at the opprotunity to be a smart-ass. "Well doctor," I said while acting serious,"I frequntly enjoy fucking my dog and-" he coughed loudly.

"There will be enough of that. We can do this the easy way or the hard way." he said looking at me through his thick glasses.

And so it went he asked me questions I'd be a smart-ass, but evantually he was able to pester the answers out of me.

I went back to school. Me and Becky continued to walk together but it would be a silient and ackward walk. Sometimes we would conversate. She slowly quit talking to me and eventually she stopped walking to school with me. I never thought I could miss her so much. Every night I cursed myself for letting her get away.

And Aanaya like she said never came back. My dreams were now full of monsters. There was no way of escaping them now. I missed her dearly, I wish I had heeded her warning.

Sometimes I would see her in my dreams, but it wasn't really her. It was just one of them teasing me with her image. Sometimes they would try to get me to try and kill myself again. But I never wanted to go back there again. Ever. I could still feel my skin being turned into bark.

One day when I stepped out of the shower, I was met face to face with a man in a white suite. He sneered at me.

"H-ho-how did you get in here?" I asked remembering that I locked the door.

"Ha Johnny boy don't act like you don't know me!" the man said smiling all of a sudden. I just shook my head. "Hmph well how about this," he turned around and changed into a demon like creature except bigger and much more threatening. I, being so used to seeing them, began thinking and everthing clicked into place.

"Your Lucifer..." I said slowly. He nodded smiling that sadistic smirk of his. He came closer to me. I backed up into the wall.

"Your mine John! I just thought I might let you know that." he said in my ear. His breath was putrid. He licked my cheek and was gone. I shivered.

What the hell was that!

A/N: looks into huge abyss HELLO ANYONE STILL THERE? Prolly not. I just thought I might clear this up. THIS IS NOT A SLASH! OKAY! I have absolutly no idea where that Lucifer scene came from ,but, well, I don't know honestly. I'm sorry It's sooooo short it's been awhile that I've written anything. Oh and I've been working without a spell checker so I guessed on most words. PLEASE DON'T HURT ME! Also I haven't listened to Evanescence in months literally so i had refresh all of that. Soooooo ummmmm the usual REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!

Blessed be,

Grey

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of those rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters-Norman Maclean (A River Runs Through it)
