The step to the devil's house

Life is always unexpecting as many people say, many people leave and come into your life like a cycle, but soon you realize, there's at least one person that actually cares for you, not the people you live with, but someone dear to you, well that dear person to me was named Ely...

Monday:7:30AM

I am currently walking to school for my first day at High School, many people are scared but not me because...he was there, my best friend since childhood, Ely. He's been there for me ever since we were little kids, I remember that one time when we where in 7th grade, when a boy named Ryan asked me out with a cute little notecard saying "Do you wanna date? circle one yes or no", I remember being so excited, that I automatically circled yes in the paper, but little did I know, Ryan was not the type of person who he seemed to be.

In the beginning Ryan and I got along pretty well we were perfect for each other, the perfect couple, until that one time...One day when I was heading out of school with Ely, Ryan appeared behind us out of nowhere and pulled my wrist so hard, I remember it feeling as if someone was trying to squish all the bones in my wrist, I remember Ryan having these eyes with so much anger in them, that I wouldn't dare tell him he was hurting me. Ely though was brave enough to speak out and said "What the hell is your problem Ryan, you don't need to use force to make Nicole walk with you", yeah... that's my name Nicole, I don't know how parents came up with that name but they did, but back to where we were... Ryan responded with the most terrifying voice I had ever heard in my entire life, "Nicole is my girlfriend, and I have the right to do what I want with her, and now, she's walking with me to my house!", I remember feeling so afraid, "Me going to my boyfriend's house?", just the idea of it made me shiver. Ryan started dragging me by my wrist to the direction of his house, but before I realized, Ely had his hand on my other wrist saying "Nicole doesn't want to go with you", before I could even get a glance of what was happening, Ryan let go of my wrist, and punched Ely with a force that was out of this world, right on Ely's face underneath his jawline. I remember Ely's sounds of pain, Ryan was about to give him another punch, but I screamed at the top of my lungs and told him to stop, I didn't care if others were watching the situation I was in, but because I didn't want Ely to get himself injured even more, I agreed to go to Ryan's house. Ely looked at me with shocked eyes, I knew that this was a dangerous choice, but what else could I have done for him at that moment. Ryan grinned and grabbed my wrist as we started to walk. I looked one last time back at Ely, and saw his lips move, but I couldn't make out the words, "only look forward" said Ryan... as we were walking, Ryan's house just kept getting closer and closer, and before I knew it we where at his house.

Ryan's house was huge! I could not believe that this was his house, how had I not known that my boyfriend was rich!, "stop staring and come inside" said Ryan, "What about your parents!" I said desperately, trying to find any excuse to not go inside his house "They won't be back until 8:00PM since they have work", I almost stumbled on my knees at that moment, me and Ryan alone in his house!?, could this get any worse, I looked at my clock on my wrist it was 4:02PM, "Things had just gotten worse..." "In the end I took my step into what seemed to be the devil's house", things were just going to get worse from here...
