You Shouldn't Have Come Here Novels & Stories

All I knew was that I had to get away, to escape this nightmare. I should never have agreed to come here, I thought, cursing myself for my decision. I shouldn't have come.

Or scream. Instead, I whispered, “You shouldn’t have come.” He tilted his head. “I promised to go with you. You asked.” “That was a joke!” I snapped. “Was it?” His tone didn’t rise. I shoved my hair back, my hand shaking. Mascara streaked under my eyes; glitter clung to my cheeks like bruises. “You don’t belong here,” I said. “Church boys shouldn’t walk into strip clubs.” He lifted a brow. “You think God closes His eyes in places like this?”

There is a big possibility. “You should flee, and never return here, that is if you could save yourself.” I hissed.

“What are you doing here in the first place? You wouldn’t have seen anything if you didn’t come where you’re not wanted.” Oh, so he didn’t know his lady friend had sent me a picture and that was why I was here? Impressive!

“Not with you by my side. Which is why I’m bringing you with me.” My eyes widened ever so slightly, and I jerked my head back a bit. “You’re bringing me with you?” I echoed incredulously. “Chris, I can’t come. I should stay here in Moonstone in case I’m needed, and besides, we can’t—” Before I could finish, I quickly cut myself off. No. Not yet.

"Why the hell would you do that? What's wrong if I come here?" "Nothing's wrong with coming here Sapphire. Everything is wrong with the time. Do you realize it's half past 11? Who roams around the city at that point of an hour? And don't you know you're not supposed to be getting out of your house? God, you are discharged just a few hours ago, it is not good for your health. You might catch cold. Boston's freezing right now. Do you realize..."

“Which is exactly why I shouldn’t.” “Then I’ll be at the usual place bright and early. Come if you dare.”

I'm not going anywhere. Not ever again

“I think you should leave now, Bryce. You have overstayed your welcome!” “No! Not without you!”

And in the silence, a voice whispered close to my ear. “You shouldn’t have come.”
