My brows bumped together in a scowl when I saw that Emmet's front door was left ajar.
Strange.
I slowly walked in and heard a familiar voice of a female complaining about something. I clenched my fist when my brain registered the voice to be Sophia's.
I crept to the kitchen doorway and saw Emmet installing his smoke detector with Sophia standing opposite him.
"Emmet," she pouted. "What does she have that I don't?"
"Sophia, I can't talk right now. I'm exhausted from work and I'm trying to fix this thing." He stood on a stool and I imagined Sophia pushing him off the stool.
No negative thoughts!
He fixed the smoke detector and got down from the stool to get a glass of water. She followed him to the sink and unbuttoned the first button of his shirt.
"Why don't you let me show you how much I care?" She trailed a finger down h
It had been a week since the Billie Eilish accident and I hadn't heard anything from that number since then. It just constantly felt like I was being watched.I walked faster into Emmet's house and locked the door, heaving a sigh of relief. This was the only place I felt safe."I missed you." I hugged him and enjoyed his cologne."I missed you more, baby." He kissed my hair and tightened his hold on me.We moved over to the couch and I sat inbetween Emmet's legs to watch this kiss my bestie challenge on tiktok. I couldn't concentrate on it, my mind kept reminding me of dark memories."We should go out." He encircled my waist with both his hands and softly kissed my neck."Why?" My eyes widened, remembering that whoever sent me those text messages was out there. My subconscious asked why I couldn't just tell them what was going on. What if I was in grave danger?
"I'm okay mom, why?" I chewed on my bottom lip and stared down at Oliver."Damon said you've been acting-""Damon called you?" I interrupted what she was saying with a scowl on my face."Yes, what's wrong baby?""Nothing." I answered dryly, while Oliver took a fistful of my hair and aimed for his mouth."Talk to me baby. Why so scared?" She coughed. "Why are you withdrawing yourself from everyone there?""Mom, I'm fine. You know I'm not the type that socializes." I removed my hair from Oliver's hand and thought about Damon. How could he tell my mother? Since when did he begin to contact her?"Do you need to come home?""Mom, I'm fine." I snapped, obviously irritated. "I'm kind of busy. I'll call you later, bye." I hung up and rolled my eyes.Damon was such a snitch. He didn't have to tell my mother, considering the fact th

Set yourself free from whatever grave danger you might be in. Speak out please before it is too late.

Beads of sweat formed on my forehead and the pit of my stomach felt sick."What about you Nicole?" Sara asked."Hm?" I snapped my head to Sara's direction."Have you seen the movie, friend request?""Sure." I adjusted on my seat
I stepped into the reception and made my way straight to the girl that stood behind a coffee brown desk with her head lowered and eyes glued to a magazine."Hi, I'm here to see Emmet Asa," I said with a straight face."Do you have an appointment with him?" She interrogated without taking her eyes away from the magazine."No." I chewed the insides of my cheeks.She raised her head and adjusted her glasses on the bridge of her nose. She squinted her narrow eyes at me and closed her magazine."And you're his-""Girlfriend." I answered before she could finish her question.
"Kurt, tell Jane what you did in Berlin!" I yelled at the TV with my head on Emmet's laps, referring to the season three of the movie blind spot that I had coerced Emmet into watching with me."I'm still wondering why I'm watching the season three of a movie that I've never seen it's season one." Emmet shook his head, glueing his eyes to the TV."The reason is love." I chuckled, adjusting my head on his laps. "But it's interesting, isn't it?""Yes, baby." He glanced quickly at me with a small smile on his face before returning his gaze to the TV.I concentrated back on the TV and was slightly irritated that Kurt Weller was keeping the truth from her all in the name of protecting Jane Doe. How I'd come to love this movie so much, I couldn't explain."Would you keep the truth from me if you were in Weller's shoes?" I turned my head to view Emmet's face."I believe it'd come
Emmet and I were done conversing with his parents so he led me to where his cousin brother stood, looking all classy. I was sure the song classic man was sang for this guy."Cousin!" The both exclaimed and hugged."Congratulations to you." Emmet beamed, shaking his hand while I stood behind him with my head lowered. "Where's your PYT?""She hates that name now." His cousin answered and they sniggered."Why?""She said she's a pretty young lady and not a pretty young thing.""Where are my manners?" Emmet asked no one in particular and put a hand around my waist. He brought me closer to his side and pl
Chapter 61I put on my hoodie and sling my backpack on one shoulder before stepping out of the room. I glanced from left to right before tiptoeing out of the house. Once I was outside, I took in a deep breath of the fresh air and walked into the dead of the night with my head lowered.I had a once over at Damon's house before I moved and made my way into a taxi. I pulled out my phone and texted Melanie, asking her for the address of Mr Robert. She gave me after asking what I wanted to use it for a hundred times.**************I was in front of what seemed to be like a mansion. The lights were still on, but it was pretty hard to see what was inside because of the blind folds. I waited outside behind a shrub, thinking of how to get into his
Part one Dedicated to my late parents, Mr. and Mrs. Godwin Alfa. ~~**~~ Listen to life for rent by Dido. ~~**~~I walked through my mother's room door without knocking and regretted it immediately. I gaped at the disgusting sight in front of me."What is going on here?" I asked in incredulity, while my brows bumped together into a scowl. "Out!" Mother yelled.After shutting the door, I pivoted out of the house on my heels and took off. I bent and rested my hands on my knees to catch my breath when I realized I was far from home, away from mother. Standing upright, I shoved my hands into my pocket and plodded down the streets of Canada. People were everywhere, making my skin creep. I disliked being seen by people, but I just needed to clear my head. I heard nature helps to clear the mind so here I am nature, help me! I boarded a bus and decided to stop at my favorite ice cream shop named desert blast. "What can
