Chapter 9: A bride to be

My eyes flashed up to him. I could just imagine my gaze, blazing with fear yet recognition. 'He thinks his therapy made him better' the priests voice echoed in my mind. My eyes met with his and I suddenly realized that from the moment I had entered the building, this was the first time I was actually afraid. Of my future and of what would happen next. But I didn't glance away, my gaze instead hardened and it turned into a sort of staring contest. Half face? Or Eddie? They couldn't be the same. Half face was a cruel human being that wanted me as a toy. Eddie seemed to want something else, although I didn't know quite what. Those where his two sides that I saw as I stared at him. He finally gave in, looking away for a second. Before I could stop him, he walked out of my view, and behind a sort of wall/curtain. My breath grew steadily quicker as I heard him rummage through something. I closed my eyes as the noises stopped, afraid of what he would bring out. Scissors maybe? To cut off my foot? Maybe it would be a chainsaw... I shuddered, squeezing my eyes shut even tighter. I heard him walk back to me. He stopped in front of me abruptly, and I could hear him chuckle. Without any words he put something carefully on my head. I took in a sharp slice of air, but to my luck it wasn't a hammer or chainsaw on my head. I opened my eyes slowly and put a hand on my head. I took it off and looked at him the entire time I brought it in front of me. Eddie smiled back at me, and I glanced down at what I was holding.
"A veil?" I choked out, as I look at the white fabric.
"You don't like it?" He murmured in disappointment. I looked at him and raised an eyebrow. Eddie must have thought that was a no because in the next second, he was pressed up against me, holding my chin in his hands. "You're my bride, sent from God." He explained in soft words. At this point i was starting to feel a little uncomfortable as he pressed himself closer. Just as I thought he would squish me to death I heard a door slam open.
