Invitation
"Victoria, here fast , god you are so slow,. The gates are going to close and then we will be stuck out here and its going to be your fault entirely,"  " Will you stop shouting Allie , we are not late and you know Robert will not say anything even if we are a few minutes late , he's my favourite man , he wont say a word." The two girls rushed past the gates of the institute inside of it , panting and gasping for breath. The watchman - Robert looked at the pair of them and shook his head sighing at their youthful manners. The girls grinned guilty at him and the one who had just claimed the man to be her favourite one chuckled in his direction and with a smile plastered on her beautifully lit up face said " Robert , you know us . Always the ones to be late." At this statement Robert replied with a similar smile , one of fondness for a child or a kin, said " In my sixty years , I haven't met such a crafty woman , always gets out of tough spots. I think I have known you more in six months here than most students who have been here for a long time, of course the exception is you Allie , you were here with us at the orphanage , studying in its institution for school as well as college. Its good we found you then and adopted you to this place. I was never lonely a minute when you were small , used to keep me entertained all the time. Of course now you have better things to do , don't even expect you to keep me company, feel lonely and all sometimes but these acts of you girls keep me entertained. Have I said much ? sorry for it told you feel lonely and all."  The girls shared a similar look of exasperation and Allie spoke " You can still talk to me , Robert and now you have the other watchmen to keep you company and be your friend, talk to them." "The other watchmen don't like me, they think I'm different .They make fun of me, the old man who keeps babbling. Yes maybe I babble and talk a bit much but its no reason to avoid me but they do it anyway. At my age company is rare. Who would like to listen to an old man say anything, they would prefer to hear the youth for its voice is strong and bold and mine weak and feeble. Everyone who would like listening to me except you girls is no more on this planet. It gets lonely and its the worst feeling to be lonely for this disease is incurable and I find myself lost in times of past hoping that I had someone who would make me feel less lonely." Victoria and Allie seemed out of words. Robert had said too much as per his usual habit but he had something that hit both Victoria and Allie close to home. Loneliness , a thing the students at this institution knew all to well. All orphans studying together finding family and friends among each other trying hard to ward off the loneliness that came with advent of night and lasted all while they lay in their beds , looking at other families , looking at people who stayed outside the wall of this institute. Victoria spoke with a heavy voice but one laced with kindness a rare tone out of her but one usually shared with the man in front of them, " Robert if you ever feel alone just call us. We'll be there for you ." The man smiled at the promising nature of her words and then with a final wave retreated to his cabin safeguarding and watching the gates like a hawk from a distance. The two girls continued walking in slow steps now towards their building retreating to their rooms for rest and sleep. Allie broke the silence with normal chatter as she said " Its been just six months but I feel like I know you all from inside out ." Victoria seriously doubted this statement as she herself didn't know much about herself but didn't correct her friend while she continued " I first found it so weird like you became an orphan when you were almost going to turn into an adult and you have no idea who actually your parents were or even about your past cause you lost your memory in the accident and at first I thought that it so sad that you don't remember but to be honest you are lucky , you have no memories whatsoever of your parents ,your past anything so you are like a fresh blank page ready to be written on with lucidity and we are all just written pages getting scrambled over trying so hard to start afresh but cant because of all the terrible writings of the past." Victoria completely agreed with Allie on this , she was lucky she might not to know who her parents were but it is better than having beautiful memories of them and then realizing they don't exist . She couldn't even imagine how tough that would be. Many students at the institute suffered with extreme cases of post traumatic stress disorder after their parents passed away and it was horrible to see them suffer. She felt extreme pain for them and this was the one thing that kept Victoria away from trying too hard to remember it all. The doctors had said that no possible visual showed any signs of brain or nerve damage so the memory damage was the way her brain made sure she coped with the accident. It was a preventive measure her brain had adopted to avoid any grief but she felt different. She had tried at first just after she got into the institute tried real hard to remember all of it. No flashbacks nothing. No gruesome dreams or anything that could even remind her that she had existed before these past few months. It was frustrating at times but then a little voice inside of her always said to her to not try that hard. It was as if her own body or mind rejected her wish to remember ,told her to practice her curiosity with caution. Specially when one of her classmates was sent away to mental institution because she couldn't handle the pressure of losing her parents . Victoria was more and more reluctant and a coward, a voice inside of her told her. Ignoring the silly voice , Victoria changed the subject to a better one and asked Allie," Hey! have you invited everyone to tomorrow's party , it has to be blast and are you bringing a date?"  " Yes, to the date and no to inviting everyone. I told you its going to be handful of people this time , not like the hassle we had last time, and Robert gets angry with me, of course he can't get with you so the anger comes out on me. " " Okay fine but who's your date ?" Victoria asked with curiosity bubbling in her voice. " Its a surprise , Vic and you will see its this new guy I met at a diner I went to last week with the girl gang. You stayed at home that night ." Stayed at home, probably that was the reason Allie didn't tell her about this guy, she was indeed very upset the other day with Victoria when she cancelled on the plan and decided on staying home , in her defense it was a test the next morning and she preferred passing it. Shaping her full lips into a pout she passed another sorry look to Allie one she had been giving her whenever this topic came up. It was fun seeing her melt at the sight of her cute face and lose the stern expression she had whenever it came to the other night.  The night grew darker and the purple sky shone with the twinkling stars that overlooked the hills and the country side where the college was situated. Away from the hustle- bustle of the city , with the fresh breeze blowing day and night as well as a quietness and an atmosphere of serenity and absolute peace . The trees here were full of leaves and taken good care of. The girls walked to their dorms quietly after their last conversation. On reaching the building they bid each other farewell and retreated to their rooms , laying in their beds , sleeping a good day off not knowing what tomorrow would bring to them. The next morning passed without any special event but a chatter about tonight's party being held privately, buzzed through the school. Angry faces of people who weren't invited and excited tones of those who were. Mainly , Allie had invited all her friends around twenty people in all and her date too. Allie and Victoria hardly shared any classes so after the long tiring day Victoria found Allie perched on top of her bed with enormous boxes full of makeup and a few hangars filled with clothes. At first she really wanted to laugh about it but Allie was too serious when it came to all this and she didn't want hurt her friend so without further interrogation or questioning she gave into Allie's demands that entailed her dressing Victoria up being her stylist for the party and in return Victoria offered the same favour . While Victoria did Aliie's hair she heard a excited squeal leave Allie and raised a questioning brow to it . In reply she said " Its my first date with the mystery guy. He is so hot and extremely my type , fancy and stuff , here with his sister and mother from Australia . Like its halfway across the world and just for me to meet him . I think he is the one or I hope he is otherwise where would you find a guy here in Virginia that too in the country estate."  " I hope he is the one , Allie otherwise this three hundred dollars dress you got will be so wasted." The girls laughed at that and walked outside ready for the party. The party had already begun when Victoria and Allie reached there. The camp was set , the fire lit and most of the people were there seated around the fire basking in its warmth stuck to each other. They waved at all their friends as they arrived. Most of the boys looked pretty stricken. Victoria was gorgeous , like beautiful in a way you couldn't take your eyes off her and the dress she wore accentuated her curves and gave her a fair advantage with the length. Allie was pretty on the other hand with her short hair and a nice chest and pretty slim legs that she could rival a model except her height was a bit less than Victoria which was the reason she had not yet become an all professional model but her fashion design courses were going pretty well. Victoria on the other hand looked very different from Allie with a fairly average height she was slim with all proper curves and dark hair that cascaded down in waves till her waist. Then her blue eyes deep as the sea added to her unnatural beauty but it never irked her to be this beautiful nor she paid any attention to it. Allie's eyes searched the party looking for her date probably as Victoria saw her do it every time they spoke among themselves or with someone else. Snapping her out of her daze she said " Allie , its fine probably he's a bit late no need to get worried or anxious." A feeble hope so was heard from her friend's end and Victoria sighed again and then looked at the gate. A figure seemed to come out of the shadows , a man or a boy with broad shoulders and muscular arms. His movements were quiet as a snake slipping through the grass, unnatural and creepy. His eyes, they seemed to shine in the dark like a cat's or a dog's and it was the only thing that announced the arrival of this unknown visitor. Following her movements, Allie's gaze fell upon this visitor and her face lit up like a Christmas tree on the eve of Christmas. The boy though didn't seem to be that happy as he reached Allie and took her hand. She blushed red from inside out and placed her small , soft ones in his large very perfectly carved hands. Victoria couldn't help but admire the workmanship of his creator or however he turned out so perfect. The beauty was so unnatural and she felt nostalgic as if she had seen him somewhere. She asked the boy who was looking at her friend with his sharp eyes the one that Victoria thought glowed " Have we ever met before?"  The boy turned his head and jerked it sideways checking out Victoria completely. Not in an inappropriate way more in an examining nature , like judging her worth. Then he smiled at her and said " Not that I have ever met you but I wouldn't mind though I can be certain that I am not a fool to forget such a pretty face. " Very strangely the comment didn't upset Victoria like it would have if a boy Allie liked hit on her but she felt fascinated by him like a child is to zoo animals, amazed to see that something like that exists. The nostalgic feeling refused to fade away but she suppressed it and then smiled back at him but this time one that made it clear that she was letting him off the hook for hitting on her date's bestfriend but seemed polite to others. Allie distracted by this beautiful man ignored all of their conversation and stared with misty eyes at the beautiful dark haired boy.  A light breeze blew rustling their coats and disturbing the peaceful fire and as Victoria turned away looking at the fire she saw, in its reflection the eyes and rigid posture of the mysterious date Allie had invited to the party on a small mirror held up a girl fixing her makeup. Gasping hard she looked back to where the couple were but they had vanished away with no sign of their presence. Victoria's eyes did a double check of the place looking for her blond friend who was definitely in some very frightening situation. Her nerves jumped into an extreme start and all sorts of fear inducing harmones started kicking in . Her exposed leg shivered with clod as well as fear and wrapping a thin shawl around her she headed off towards the camps searching for her friend in one of them. Victoria so desperately prayed Allie was fine and what Victoria had seen would just be a figment of her imagination born from watching too many horror movies. Moving from one tent to the other peeping through small holes through the camp's door Victoria had checked almost all the tents that had been set up except one that lay close to the forest and seemed empty. With small but brave steps Victoria reached that tent and peeped through its hole. Before she could see anything she slipped, lost her footing on the soil and fell right into the tent or what seemed from outside like a tent. With dirt splattered on her clothes , wet grass stuck to her shirt and a taste of wet soil on her lips she got up and stood inside what seemed to be a house with a living room which had a huge beautiful couch big enough for four men to sleep, in the side a kitchen and another room. After Victoria took this unbelievable sight in, her heart rate spiked from already anxious to very very anxious. Her eyes refused to accept like her brain was shutting down on her it was frustrating. Before she could ask someone or say anything she saw a sight that she had dreaded since she saw his eyes. Allie passed out on the kitchen counter bleeding from her neck and the boy sucking it all as it oozed out of her. A scream left her and the boy laughed and said " Don't scream yet sweetheart there is a lot left to scream on and for so for now welcome to my place ."
