Chapter 10
Tay got home after a horrible at the store, after meeting Benjamin and getting started on where things were going to be laid out for the stage, they had to do a massive rearrangement of clothing. It was just horrible and she was so tired, but she had a date, she didn’t know if she was going to keep it, no she knew she was going to go, she just wished it was some where private rather than at a restaurant in town. Ben told her that a car would come and get her at 9:40 and take her there, all she had to do was be ready.
That left her, Tay thought, about an hour and a half to get ready and stop her nerves. She ran upstairs so that she could shower, which she did as quick as possible. She blow dried her hair and then moved into her room to try and find something to wear for the evening, glancing at the clock she saw that she still have an hour. Hopefully that was long enough to find something to wear, probably change a few times, do her hair and get some make up on her face.
Tay layed out three different outfits for herself to wear and then stood and stared at them for a few minutes then grabbed the black strapless, thigh length dress and slipped it on. She could wear this and wear her black jacket. She could also sweep half of her hair up and a little make up and it should be good.
Or she could wear the red dress, that was spaghetti strapped, knee length with a sweetheart neck line, and put all of her hair up with some curls hanging down. Or maybe the blue dress which was floor length, God she just didn't know. She knew the resturant was fancy so it had to be one of these. She held up each and turned to the mirror to see which one was the best, the blue.
The blue one was floor length, but Tay wore 3 inch heels, silver heels. It had one strap on the right shoulder the left was bare. It was a beautiful goan that she had never worn but could not resist purchasing when she had seen it in New York, the summer before. She slipped it on as the doorbell rang.
What the hell, she thought glancing at the clock it was only 9, she had plenty of time left. Tay walked down the hall, tugging on her heels as she went. Down the steps, she heard the bell ring again. Jesus, I'm coming, Tay thought as she reached the downstairs and strode to the door. She glanced outside and saw no one. She opened the door, and looked around, there was a present on the porch in front of the door. She picked it up and looked around once again, then went back inside and closed the door. She walked into the kitchen and set it on the table. Slowly she removed the red ribbon, there was no tag stating who it was from but who else could it be but Dee. Carefully she lifted the flap and then the other and screamed!
"oh my god," Tay exclaimed as she peeked back into the box. There was a doll, strangely it looked just like her, except this doll had no head, the head was in the box, just not on the doll. What the hell is this, Tay thought. Some sort of sick joke? She took a deep breath and stood still for a moment, wondering what she should do with it. Should she call the cops or should she just figure it was a mistake, maybe it came to the wrong person, who knew what it was supposed to mean. She took another breath and closed the lid of the box and walked to the front closet and stuck it on the shelf, she would think about it later, she was running out of time for her date.
Tay ran back upstairs, putting the box out of her mind, or trying to at least. She glanced at the clock again, god she had been down there for 20 mins and only had 20 left before the car was here. She raced into the bathroom and pulled her hair up messily and secured it with some bobby pins and then grabbed her make up and with a deft hand applied all that she thought she needed, a little on the eyes and some pale lip gloss. She was never one to put on a bunch of gunk that would just have to be washed off later before she went to bed.
Once she was finished she checked herself out in the full length mirror and decided it was going to be good enough. Dee had seen her in normal clothes so this would be a first for him and her to see each other dressed up, in person. She sighed and closed her eyes for a minute, taking deep breathes and counting to 100.
She heard the doorbell ring as she opened her eyes, it couldn't be time already, she thought as she glanced at the clock., 9:35. Jesus are they early, she thought as she made her way downstairs as she stuffed things into a blue velvet purse that she dug out of the closet, it matched the dress. She stopped at the closet and pulled out her jacket then moved and opened the door, there was no one there, again. And there was another box on the porch, this night was beginning to be really weird, she thought as she picked it up and glanced around as she pulled the red ribbon off the box. She opened it and screamed once again, and threw the box on the porch. She slumped against the door frame, trying to catch her breath as she stared in horror at what was in there, it was now on the porch since the box had turned over when she dropped it.
Tay never noticed the sleek black mercedes that had pulled up in front of her house, she was paralyzed with fear.
"Taylor, what is it," A male voice said as he came up the porch steps,"Tay. . . oh shit," the guy said as he stepped over the mess and pulled Tay into her house, closing the door on the gruesome display.
"What? I'm fine." Tay said quietly.
"you are not fine, where did that come from," He asked.
"I . . . I don't know, I thought it was you but it was just there, there was one earlier, but not... not like that."
"Tay, look at me," He said, "Please" he said again when Tay wouldn't look at him, once she did, he saw the tears and confusion in her eyes.
"Dee, you're here, I thought someone else was coming," She replied, realizing for the first time that it was actually him.
"It might have been, but i finished in time to come and get you myself, I'm glad I did, I wouldn't of been able to handle it if someone else would of been here instead of me."
"But, oh my god, did you see it?"
"Yea, I think we need to call the police, you said there was another one, when did that one come?"
"Like 9, I thought it was you then too, but you would of been really early."
"Where is that one?"
"In the hall closet"
"This one right here,"
"Yes, on the shelf, same type of box."
"Got it, what's in this one"
"A decapitated doll,"
"A what, oh my god, yea, we're callin the police, right now."
"But what if it's a joke, ya know."
"Tay, baby, it's a sick joke and someone should pay for this."
"you're right."
"I know I am," Dee said as he grabbed his cell phone and called the police then made a call to his manager and another call to someone else."Everyone should be here soon."
