30 years
nervously i start to sweat and and get up to “use the restroom “ i look to my shoulder and i see the gremlin, marcus. angrily i whisper to him “hey please not now i’m on my first date” he then hops off my shoulder and rushes out the door. as he runs out the door i follow him not realizing my date , alex, has seen me rush out the door. i quickly freeze up and tell him that i tripped over my shoe. he then laughed and asked if i was okay. i look around for marcus not knowing where he is. i then hear noises and screaming from the kitchen and automatically know that it was marcus. i told alex i would be right back and went to the kitchen and told marcus to leave now. he then runs back out and goes to alex as he is turned around looking for me. marcus then drugged alexs drink, then alex drinks it. i sat back down because marcus had already finally left. alex tells me that he feels a bit funny and then quickly faints right after. i yelled for help asking if anyone was a doctor or if anyone could call 911. soon enough alex was in the hospital getting treated. i see the gremlin, that green ugly slimey bastard. i quickly asked him what he had done he obviously got intimidated and told me what happened i got so upset and told him to leave and never come back again. the doctors came with the police officer and said i was under arrest for drugging alex. i instantly start crying and yelling that it wasn’t me and that i would never because i had known at that point that i was in love with alex. they still arrested me anyways and said i would have to talk to the judge... we finally got to the court house and i explained how it was marcus and he would follow me and something bad would happen when he was near. they didn’t believe me for a second untill marcus came out and plead as guilty. they finally let me out. i instantly ran over and gave alex a kiss. i later talked to marcus and told him i didn’t want to be in another situation like that ever again and that he had to leave me alone. he understood and finally left me alone. a few years when by... i was finally married to alex and have two beautiful twin girls, eden and angelica, they were already two years old! marcus one day came back.. and said that i wasn’t done.. not knowing what he meant finally realized that i was cursed when i was younger and that marcus was set out to make my life miserable or the first 30 years of my life. 10 years later.... it was my 30th birthday and marcus was no where to be seen... he had burned to death in the sun....
