Stranger! Danger!
Amber's P.O.V My head begins to throb from all of the intense emotions that I have been feeling today as I force myself to face my terrifying reality. I'm living with two criminalsTwo drug addictsTwo possible killersTwo absolute strangersI'd like to think that I used to know Jack but I've realized that I never have and it seems like I never will. I don't know how I ended up here but I want out. Out of this apartment and out of this fucking relationship.I can't stand being here for a second longer. I bring my hands up to my face before slowly wiping away all of my tears while taking a deep breath. I need to figure out a way to get out of this apartment. My thoughts begin to wrack my brain as I try to think of ways to help cope with my current emotions. Maybe Jovana can help me come up with a good excuse to leave, or at least help me get my mind off of things. I miss her and I haven't talked to her in a while, I just know hearing her voice will make me feel b
Amber's P.O.V I bring myself away from the front door before slowly going over to Zac's bedroom area. I stand in front of the wooden door for several moments, just staring out at the painted wood as I try to find the confidence to go back into the space. My eyes slowly close shut and my breathing starts to hitch as I begin to prepare myself for what I may see or what may happen to me if I were to get caught. Everything is going to be okay, Jack left and Zac won't be back here for a while. Slowly, I wrap my hand around the silver door knob before taking a deep breath and pulling down on the handle. But the moment that I do I'm met with some sort of resistance, preventing me from gaining access to the space. Fuck, is his door always locked?! I throw my head back in annoyance as I allow a low groan to escape my lips. My hands pull onto the door handle a few more times before eventually relenting as I accept my fate. There has to be a key around here somewhere.
Amber's P.O.V I feel my palms shake anxiously as I focus my attention back down to Jack's door knob. My shaky hands twist the door open in order to grant me access to the space having me close the door shut immediately after. I can't believe Zac caught me while I was in his room. What if he finds out about me going through his files? What would he do if he were to know about all of the things I saw while being in there? I rub my fingers over my temples in order to relieve some stress as I begin to think about all of the possible scenarios in which could happen. Zac would surely kill me. It's obvious that he doesn't have a problem with violence and I've clearly seen too much. Maybe this is what Jack was saying that he wanted to protect me from. I still don't know the depth of the situation but from what I have seen it's clear that they are involved with something extremely dangerous. Something that I just can't understand right now. All I know is that I
Amber's P.O.V I sit on Jack's mattress with my body facing his door as I await for him to make an entrance. My leg bounces against the wooden floor in anticipation as I think about everything in which I am going to say to him. The obnoxiously loud sound of the two boys laughing from the opposite side of the wall causes me to grow even more annoyed than I already was.I wish Jack would take me more seriously.I've been trying to talk to him about this since before we ate dinner and he still hasn't even come in here. It's already worse that he's going to be high on coke during this conversation, I wish we could just get this over with . My eyes flicker down to my phone in order to check the time, seeing that it was already eight o'clock pm. I immediately go to unlock my phone before going into Jack and I's conversation in efforts to rush him and prioritize me for once.To Mine🖤: It's kind of important. A few moments after pressing send on the message the sound of the
Amber's P.O.V Jovana would never do anything to harm our friendship, Jack just wants to make me feel insecure about anyone in my life thats not him. She's never been anything but a good friend to me, I can't believe I'm actually letting Jack get in my head and doubt our friendship. I shake my head, laughing at the ridiculous thought before going to pull out my phone in order to call her. Once my phone was unlocked I then immediately go into my contacts before clicking on her name . After a few rings she eventually answers, showcasing her beautiful face through the screen. "Wow. I thought you died or something. Considering I haven't heard from you in FOREVER!" Jovana exaggerates as she answers the phone. My eyes roll in a joking manner as I hear her complaints about not seeing me.I guess I have been somewhat neglecting her since our beach day. I've just been so busy that I haven't even really managed to get a free day to myself since then.But its not like I'm av
"Fifteen minutes ago, I was laying in bed. Then, I had a crazy thought in my head" -Madison BeerAmber's P.O.V I immediately place my phone down onto Jack's mattress before pushing away all of my concerned thoughts. Jack will be fine, he can take care of himself. I begin to focus my attention on Jack's closet, hoping that if I were to start getting ready now that he'd come back in time to take me to my dorm.Jack knows that I need to pack all of my things out of my dorm, he wouldn't want me to miss that especially since he knows that I have class tomorrow. My eyes scan across all of Jack's belongings before settling on a nicely fitted tee shirt along with a pair of sweatpants. I place the different pieces of fabric onto Jack's bed before going over to his bathroom. As I step into the fairly spacious room, I immediately begin to make my way over to Jack's shower. My hands grip the handl
Amber's P.O.V "The only bad idea would be for you to continue staying in that apartment alone." Gianna speaks, sighing softly as she locks the car doors behind me. I say nothing to her in response as I begin to silently buckle myself within my seat belt. Gianna begins to slowly pull out of her parking space before turning her attention over to me once again. "Are you okay?" She questions as she continues to drive through Jacks apartment complex. My eyes flicker away from her as I focus my attention out the window. Am I Okay? I don't even remember what okay feels like. I'm happy Im with Gianna and away from all of the chaos surrounding Jack, but im also afraid. I'm afraid for Jack's safety. I'm afraid that something may genuinely be wrong with him. I'm afraid to leave now and risk pissing Jack off later. "I don't know. I guess I am." I shrug as we finally make our way to the gates. "I know that you've been going through a
Amber's P.O.V "I really like the sound of that." I say, agreeing with Heidis earlier statement. Gianna looks over at me before sending me a faint smile. "That's the spirit." She calls out. "Perfect, well I'm just going to finish getting ready and then we can head there. " Heidi speaks, having us all come to an agreement. The three of us wait patiently in Heidis living room, conversing with one another in order to stay entertained. Gianna and Jo seem to be really enjoying each others company as the two of them haven't stopped laughing at the others jokes since they met. I smile at the both of them, finding true joy in the fact that my two best friends were getting along. After about fifteen minutes, Heidi finally re-emerges from her room fully dressed. "You ladies ready to go?" She says, grabbing her purse off of the counter as she places her lip gloss into the bag. "Well we were waiting on you." Gianna says as she stands from h
