Chapter 10. Secrets and Lies
This chapter contains *some* naughtiness. You will see ~-~-~-~- immediately before it, and after.
"Is something wrong?" Ody asked Sonia
She screamed, not having realised he followed her into her room.
"Woah! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you... I just wanted to make sure you were ok, and that nothing happened when you found the phone." Ody said.
Sonia's eyes were as wide as saucers when Ody spoke, but once he mentioned the dreaded phone they started to flit between Ody and the phone.
"I'm not ready to talk about it," Sonia said in a tone of finality.
She then collected the phone and stuffed it into one of her pockets.
"Let's head back to where your stuff is. I'm sure you have more to show me." Sonia said, and she gave Ody very wide berth, to get around him and stay out of arm's reach.
Once Ody heard Sonia sit back down, he then moved from where he had been standing to catch up with her.
After another ten to fifteen minutes of conversation, Ody again requested to see Sonia's phone and access to her Wattpad account.
"I d-d-don't know-w-w.... h-h-he p-p-punish-sh-shes anyone who t-t-tries to i-i-int-t-terv-v-vine... a-a-and m-m-me." she stuttered, clearly terrified but trying against all logic, to imagine it wasn't happening.
"It's ok, Sonia. I can handle whatever that phone is going to throw at me. I'm both big enough and ugly enough to handle whatever is thrown our way... I'll be strong enough for both of us, ok?" Ody asked in the end.
"Ok... I s'pose I've got nothing left to lose." Sonia eventually sighed in response.
She unlocked her phone with her thumbprint.
She skipped past the missed calls and text messages and opened her Wattpad.
Then, she handed her phone over to Ody.
"I only started the first chapter.. the rest... well, the story seems to keep updating no matter what state the phone is in. I've smashed it, twice. I've gone to the beach without and nearly been drowned... that's a chapter I most definitely had no part in the writing of any part of the chapters after that... " Sonia explained the Wattpad part of things to him as he began to read and see for himself, what life had been like forever.
He clicked onto the latest chapter and saw our conversation to date and said "Neat! You can see the words actually updating as you look at it... if you stand here. I can legitimately see my words appearing on the screen. It is kind of unique."
Then, Ody took a moment to glance at Sonia's face. It was white-as-a-ghost, and she appeared to be trembling with a thin film of sweat on her face.
"Are you alright? What can I do to help you, right this minute?" Ody ended up asking Sonia. "No offense Sonia, but you look like shit right now. I just want to help."
All of a sudden, Sonia's phone rang.
Unknown Number.
Sonia began to hyperventilate, and she was severely trembling from head to toe.
"I-i-i-it-it-it's h-h-h-h-hi-him. Y-y-you ha-have t-to p-p-pick it u-up." Sonia's blue eyes were as wide as saucers and filled with sheer terror.
"H-h-h-he's g-g-gonna b-be sooooo m-m-mad. P-p-please!" She pled with Ody.
He finally decided to answer the call, when it stopped ringing.
And Sonia heard the never-ending 'ding' of her phone.
"Oohh m-m-man... there will be a m-m-message in Wattpad for sure," Sonia said.
Ody opened up the now infamous app on her phone to find a few... choice... words from 'Peter' within the story.
"YOUSLUT!DOYOUTHINK- FORONESECOND- ODYISBETTERTHANME? IWILLKILLHISENTIREFAMILYLINE! YOU. ARE. MINE! STOPSPREADINGYOURLEGSFOREVERYTOM,DICK&HARRY!"
As he read it, his face got redder and redder. The tension in the room was palpable, yet neither Ody nor Sonia knew exactly what to say. How to break the ice once someone has seen and read the evidence of your imagined, or made up stalker!
The entire situation was beyond strange, it was downright awkward.
Sonia took a few moments to just breathe, lower her thumping heart-rate, and try to collect her thoughts.
Ody's voice carried softly across the room to her ears. "Are you ok there, Sonia?"
She chose not to answer straight away.
She heard Ody open his mouth to speak to her again before she answered him.
"How does he always know? He always. Knows. Everything." And then, Sonia shuddered, then began to tremble from head to toe.
Ody gently put an arm, gently around her shoulders, after pocketing her phone. "Come on, let's go boil the kettle," Ody said with an air of calm surrounding him. He slowly managed to tug Sonia from the room, albeit in an almost catatonic state.
Almost two hours later, Sonia was starting to become more lucid.
"Come on Sonia. I need you to come to your senses... and pretty quickly now if you could please. We're running out of time."
"Five more minutes, Dad, please! I don't even wanna go to schoo-"
Ody appeared to almost smile before he started to drip water from a drink bottle onto her forehead.
"Come on, Sonia! Wake up! Or Peter will be here to take you. Forever..."
She merely groaned and tried to roll away from Ody and the water.
In her mind though - it was as though Sonia was stuck between a place of terrible nightmares, and fantastical fantasies based solely on the look on her face, and her body language.
Switching between muttering gutterly and groaning in complete despair, Sonia didn't actually have any words to say.
Ody reached towards her and tried to gather her in his arms, the entire time humming an old nursery rhyme.
Bu Sonia physically fought him - tooth and nail, as well as emitting loud, bloodcurdling screams every five seconds or so.
Ody was forced to leave her alone, and back away slowly with his arms in the air as a sign of surrender. And o show Sonia that he wasn't a threat, nor going to hurt her.
After a further forty-five minutes, Ody had calmed Sonia enough that she was speaking in complete sentences, and asking for food and sustenance.
Ody popped into her kitchen and made her a hot cup of tea, and a sandwich.
After she was done with both, Ody started to fill her in on what he had pieced together.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
"So, Peter and his wife and kids were possessed by demons?" Sonia asked Ody disbelievingly. "How does something like that happen? And then how does someone like Peter... who I thought I had made up... go from imagination to interacting with me through my phone, to coming across like a stalker? I'm honestly so confused!" Sonia complained.
Ody leaned over the table to pat Sonia's hand reassuringly. "I'm not one hundred percent certain on how it's happened to you, I'm sorry. But I know this is what happened, because... Peter was my uncle. My Dad's brother. Dad always believed there was more to it all than just Uncle Peter had lost the plot and was sexually abusing his family. And Dad was the one who found their bodies after all." Ody looked down at hands that were back in his lap.
"My Mum and Peters wife - Maria had always been the best of friends. We always had family dinners... I spent a great deal of my early years with those kids. Well.... until they died. I just remember that our family wasn't the same after that. I did make it my goal to solve what happened. How it happened. And see to it that whoever did it was bought to justice. But how can I achieve that if they are demons? Not human? I am but a man!" Ody pleaded to Sonia with heavy desperation in his voice.
Both Sonia and Ody had tears welling in their eyes, and it was Sonia who actually reached out to grab Ody in an embrace, to help soothe him.
"We will solve this. We will bait these fuckers out, and you can kill them. They are driving me to the brink of insanity... and I honestly don't think I can handle this for much longer. Please... Ody... tell me you have the answer..." Sonia sobbed on Ody's shoulder.
Ody's hands were rubbing a soft, but intricate pattern on her back that was calming... but strangely erotic. With a tear-stained face, Sonia craned her neck to look up at Ody and was met with his heated lips on hers.
So soft and pillowy against hers, gentle and matching Sonia's exact pace, not rushing her to give what she wasn't ready for. But when Sonia did open her mouth to permit Ody's tongue entrance to her mouth, he explored hers with the precision and accuracy of a laser. Within minutes of starting to kiss, Sonia noticed a growing wet-patch between her legs that was itching for friction, and as soon as she moved, the size of the length of hardness pressed against her? Was very much difficult to ignore. Sonia moaned, an Ody swallowed her sound with his mouth.
His hands then moved and one was one her behind, and one on her left breast, squeezing and kneading the mound.
Again Sonia moaned, but this time, Ody tipped her head back and started to kiss his way down her throat, so that her voice escaped her throat, and made a loud noise across the room.
Almost immediately, they were interrupted by the ringing of Sonia's phone.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
It was like someone had tipped a bucket of cold water over her. She stood up straight, let go of Ody and took three steps back. "It's him. I know it's him," she whispered.
Ody looked at Sonia almost a little disapprovingly. "Are you seriously going to let your phone and that asshole demon dictate what you do for the rest of your existence" Ody almost seemed to snarl at her, "I want to help you, and I really like you, but you act so scared all the damn time. Show some spine!" He said.
Sonia once again stared at Ody as if he had grown an extra four heads.
"Show some spine?" she thought to herself, "That's the best he's got?!?"
To Ody, she said "Where. Is. My. Phone?"
Ody retrieved it from his pocket and handed it to her - just as it stopped ringing and the familiar "ding" came through.
Not even a minute later, it started to ring again in her hand.
UNKNOWN NUMBER.
Sonia swiped right to answer the call and was met with the sound of Peter's voice screaming at her.
For once, though, Sonia screamed back. And far louder than Peter.
"Shut-up and listen!! Stop calling! I made you up! I don't know how you got enough energy from that to be updating my story. To be calling me. But I've had enough of taking your fucking SHIT!" And with that, Sonia hung up and switched the phone off.
As both Sonia and Ody watched the phone power down, and the Apple symbol sat there momentarily, Sonia took a breath, trying to release some of her pent up energy.
Not even a minute later, the phone was ringing on the table - despite having been powered off.
UNKNOWN NUMBER
"Woah, that's downright fucking creepy!" Ody said.
"How the fuck does he..."
Sonia was cut off by Siri switching herself on and saying... "Sonia, it's in your best interest to answer the next call... or loverboy dies." in her robotic sort-of tone.
Not even a minute later, it started to ring again in her hand.
UNKNOWN NUMBER.
Sonia swiped right to answer the call and was met with the sound of Peter's much calmer voice.
"Sonia. Baby. Listen, I'm sorry I scream, but when I get frustrated, I need to vent it or I will hurt... things... around me. I don't want to lose you. Yes, I only came into this existence because of you, but that makes me want you more. Please, forgive me. Help me find a way out of here, and we can be together always."
Peter tried to sweet-talk her down the phone.
Sonia scoffed, "I'm not falling for your shit again, and I will not help you, not for anything."
"Not even to save your lover-boy?" Peter questioned, tauntingly.
At that, Ody started to choke and make gasping noises, and clutching and grappling at his neck.
It appeared as though he was being strangled... but no-one was there apart from Sonia and Ody.
Ody's face started to go from red to an odd shade of purple, and Sonia had tears streaming down her face when she finally screamed out "OK! Ok, fine! I'll help you, just please, let Ody go. Let go of his neck and let him live. Please."
Sonia sobbed.
Peter chuckled down the phone line.
"As you wish my love."
