Chapter Five

"You know you have to talk to me eventually." Catherine said to Nick while he was watching tv.

"No i have to be here in your apartment with you. I don't have to talk to you." Nick said and then jumped when the doorbell rang.

Catherine touches his arm, "Don't worry it's just the pizza guy. I thought maybe we could have some pizza and then talk some more." She walked over to the door.

Nick sighed, Why was he so jumpy towards her? Maybe because he wanted her in a way. But she scared him a bit. He didn't like how she was always watching him. Like she knew what he was thinking. Duh, ofcourse she knew what he was thinking. She was pyshic. It didn't feel right though.

Catherine looked over at Nick while she was taking the pizza and smiled.

Fuck she had just touched me seconds ago. I bet she knows I want her.

Nick turned red and looked off slouching way down on the couch.

Wonder what it'd feel like to fuck a psychic. Would it be any different?

Catherine closed the door and put the pizza box on the table, "So what do ya say?"

Nick smelled the pizza and realized he was hungry, "Alright. But no more personal questions ok?"

Catherine sat down, "I'll try."

After they ate Catherine took out her notebook again and Nick sat back getting prepared.

"So, how do you usually feel after you recieve a phone call or anything from the stalker?" Catherine asked.

"Scared...terrified...paranoid...angry..." Nick said looking down.

"Why angry?" Catherine asked writing.

"Because they have all the control. I never know where they are. What they are gonna do next. I'm completely petrified of them and they know it. I have no control on anything they do and it pisses me off that they feel they can just take my control my safety from me." Nick answered.

"Well this stalker, I'm assuming is a girl, so maybe she feels shes not taking control from you. She sees it as getting closer. So maybe that's her way of getting close to you. Before she does more."

"Does more?!" Nick laughed, "God I don't see how this is getting closer to me."

"Well Nick...she once was just a shadow and now shes a big part of your life. So much a big part that you're jumping everytime the phone rings, everytime someones at the door. You have all your pets with friends so she can't harm them. You are constantly wondering about what she may do. So therefore she's closer to you because she is such a big part of your life."

"But you said she wants more. She's gonna get closer. And by the note, She's coming." Nick said his eyes wide.

"What if she's already here and you just don't know it. That's a possiblity. That note is a week old. That's why you're here and why there's all the security around you. Because I have a feeling she's already here...somewhere..we just don't know where yet. And she's waiting till the right moment."

"Oh god" Nick whimpered.

"Oh Nick I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have told you all that. I need to learn to keep my mouth shut." Catherine said hugging him.

Nick pushed her away gently, "It's ok. I'm fine. I'm gonna take a shower alright. Can we finish later?"

Catherine nodded, "Sure. No problem." And then watched him walk away yet again.
