40Dear Annie…
Dear Annie,
"Don't leave, don't leave." I heard you screaming that to your father the day he left you, your mum and your sisters. I was there watching you cry, oh how I wanted to dry away your tears. I watched from afar, but I could see your eyes were hurt. I could see your heart was broken. But don't worry, I'm here. I'm always here, watching you. I'll protect you from everyone, because I'm always here. Know that I'm here. Always.
Yours truly,
A Silent Witness

Dear Annie,
I would kill the living daylights out of Danny Keyes for what he did to you. If I had the chance to go out with such a beautiful girl like you I would never leave you for the school's ice queen. But why? Why did you choose a guy like him? Didn't you know that there were other guys out there? Some are so close to home, you have no idea. I punched a hole in my wall the day I found out that you were dating him. A scumbag like him, but don't worry I forgave you. It's only a matter of time before we meet and soon you'll fall into my arms and we'll be together. Always.
Yours truly,
A Silent Witness

Dear Annie,
Again you've outdone your self with your soccer training. Five hours practice? How can you manage that? I saw that you were alone, aside a few teachers setting up for the big game, and students helping out. I couldn't trust them alone with you, so I stayed behind and helped them. Not because I wanted to, but because I thought I could be closer to you, because then I could watch over you. Protect you. No harm will come to you my dear Annie. Just take care of yourself, but in case you need a friend, I'll be here. You just need to open your eyes and see, that I'll be there for you, wherever you are. Always.
Yours truly,
A Silent Witness

Annie looked at the previous letters before added the latest one, which again was delivered to her door that morning. That letter would be the fourth one in the past month. One every week. Annie wasn't afraid of who this 'Silent Witness' person was, but more to the fact that she didn't know who it was, which made her anxious to find out. She was never one for mysteries, always reading the ending of a good crime story, finding out the answer, and then reading the story looking for the right clues. She quickly glanced through the fourth letter before putting the folder away.
Dear Annie,
Why, you've finally seen! Well not really, but you've taken that small step in opening your eyes to me. I will tell you who I am, all in due time. I know you're eager to find out who I am. I'll tell you, someday. For now just know, Matthew Parks is not to be trusted. I've heard things in the boys locker room, things that are to vulgar to repeat to you, but trust me when I say this; Matthew Parks cannot be trusted. I always have your best interests at heart, and you'll see that. I will find you in your times of need, I always do, I make sure you're OK, everyday. Always.
Yours truly,
A Silent Witness

It seemed a bit weird that he would always end the letter off with an 'always'. It was as if the whole letter was building up just to fit that one word in 'always'. She'd shone her mother the letters. Her mother said that it was probably some secret admirer. When Annie pointed out some creepy phrases 'A Silent Witness' wrote her mother just brushed it off saying, 'Oh come on Ann! This guy probably spends time writing theses letters for you. He's just being kind. I think it's actually quite sweet. He's you guardian angel'. Annie had laughed at herself for being so worried, it was probably nothing.
She just wondered when and where 'A Silent Witness' would come forward, and how he knew everything about her. She just hoped that her mother was right, that it was just some shy admirer, admiring from afar. She only hoped it was really far.
A/N I've never really done a story like this before. I was in the mood for some horror. Though I think that this story is better put in the 'horror' section, most of the story will be about love and romance, whether it's the scary type or the sweet type, so I decided to put it in the 'Romance' section. However it may change later on.
I may not even go on with this, it depends on if people actually like it...but even still I may carry it on! :D
Anyway, thanks for reading, and don't take this story too seriously, it's late at night and I'm borreeed! Lol
