Ellie walked into her work, everything seemed normal. She saw Luke, and he said hi to her and hugged her just like he always did. She saw everyone, and got her work clothes on. It seemed like an average night for her, of course she didn't wanna be there, but she needed the money. it was just the way life goes. The light's in the store seemed brighter than usual. Everything seemed to be twisting, her face getting hot. Luke walked up to her and wrapped his arms across her chest and neck, she pulled away instantly but that only seemed to make him tighter on her body.
" HELP SOMEONE PLEASE! " she screamed as her body started to flail around like it was going into a static shock. Her arms and legs kicked and punched, nothing would help. She tried to scream but only noises were coming out. Everyone just stared and looked.
He let go and ran off. She was stunned, she didn't know what to do. Why would he do that? She ran over to go where she needed to be for work and there he was again. She turned to run away but her legs wouldn't move. He grabbed onto her again only this time he wasn't letting go. She screamed and kicked, did everything she could but nothing was happening. Just then all of her co-workers yelled for him to get off her and after several terrifying minutes, he did.
She ran away out the front door of the store and ran in the black night's sky. she found her way to her bosses house and slammed her hand on his door pounding and pounding. He opened it and she followed him into his room. She sat on his bed and told him everything that happened, as tears fell down her face.
"What? I'm gonna go find him right now. We're gonna call the cops!" Jake said, obviously pissed off, his face red in rage.
"It's OK. I just don't wanna go home right now, I don't know what to do. Somethings wrong with me seriously, I just wanna wait until my boyfriend gets here. I'm no good for anyone, things never stop happening. i'm in a downwards spiral and i'm gonna wreck everyone in my way. I'm sorry but I don't think i should be here anymore, or at work."
"Ellie, you're perfect. why would something be wrong with you? Because you're scared of an awful and frightening event?"
"No, because I have autism"
He looked at her with such a face, his eyes crying but his face trying to smile away the confusion. He stared at her for a few moments as if trying to collect his thoughts and words.
"Its OK you don't have to say anything. I knew I shouldn't have said that and i shouldn't have come here i'm sorry. I need to go away from everyone for a while." She jumped up and gathered her things as she headed out the door. Just as she turned the brass knob, he ran up and grabbed her hand.
"Don't go anywhere... There's something we need to talk about.."
Her heart began to pound. What? What now? What was going on!
Then she blinked her eyes and glazed at her ceiling. She woke up.
