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
‘Your eyes. Your soul. Your existence.’Amber's P.O.V My eyebrows furrow together at Xion's words as my negative thoughts begin to take over. "How long does Zac usually take to respond? Like at what point should we start becoming worried?" I question, seeing as he felt as though this behavior was completely normal. There's a faint pause in conversation as Xion can be heard clicking harshly against his controller, clearly still more interested in his game than us. "Zac responds whenever he wants but he'll get back to me. It's only been like an hour." He says nonchalantly , causing me to grow slightly irritated. It's been an hour too long. I need some type of confirmation that him and Jack are okay. Or atleast alive. I shake my head in clear annoyance as I begin to focus my attention back onto the pile of clothes before me, no longer wanting to talk to Xion. Gianna finishes up her co
Amber's P.O.VJack has to say something to me soon.Xion has to have some type of information.Other wise I'll have to take this to the police. I really don't want to considering everything that Jack has told me before but they're the only ones that might be able to actually help me. I release a deep breath of air before turning off the light and exiting the bathroom, only to be met with more darkness. I walk cautiously through the dark room, allowing the sounds of Jovana's soft snores to guide me to the direction of the bed. My leg eventually comes in contact with the mattress, having me find my place on the bed before climbing in and making myself comfortable. After a few minutes, my body eventually begins to relax against the soft bedding, causing me to release all the tension that has built up inside of me regarding today. I then close my heavy-lidded eyes before allowing sleep to eventually overtake me.The Next Morning My eyes slowly open as the
Amber's P.O.V*One week later*One week.It's been an entire week and I still haven't heard anything from Jack. Gianna refuses to help me and honestly, I'm not sure if we're even friends anymore seeing as she continues to avoid me every chance she gets. Luca is the only person who seems to care about me right now as he's been a really big help with everything. Even though Xion didn't want me to go to the police, I felt as though it was my only option considering the circumstances. I filed a missing persons report once we reached the 72hour mark of their absence and I made sure to give the police all the information that I knew leading up to their disappearance. I told them about Jack leaving in a hurry.The set of coordinates he wrote down and the man we saw breaking into his apartment with his car. I'm hoping that they're able to do something with that information in order to find Jack and bring him back to me. I've been worrying myself sick without him. The only thing that's
Amber's P.O.V *One Month Later* I'm awoken by an extremely loud banging noise coming from the outside of Jovana and I's bedroom. I immediately sit upright, feeling fear shoot throughout my body as I try to make out what I just heard. "Jovana wake up!" I say in a hushed tone as I place my hands over to her side of the bed, only to be met with nothing but empty space. I inhale a sharp breath before turning on the lamp beside me having me slowly stand to my feet. "Jovana?" I call out as I cautiously make my way to the bedroom door. My fingers slowly twist the door handle open, allowing me to be met with nothing but a dark and empty space. I take a small step into the area before scanning my eyes around the room. "Jo... are you in here?" My shaky voice calls out as I squint my eyes in order to help them better adjust to the darkness. As I look over towards th
Amber's P.O.V Jovana arrives at the Halloween store before pulling into a vacant parking spot and turning off the car. I follow her into the building, having her immediately lead us over to the adult costumes. "Okay, so what do you think we should be for the party tonight?" She questions as she scans over all the different options. I shrug my shoulders at her with uncertainty, finding little interest in the costume selections. "I'm down for whatever, I'll let you pick our outfits." I say. Jovana smiles in satisfaction as I speak those words, seemingly very happy that she would have the final decision. I follow her throughout the store, watching as she picks up a bunch of different items. "I'm thinking Kim Possible and Shego. What do you think?" She asks. I shrug my shoulders at her nonchalantly, not really having too much of an opinion. I could care less what we wear to this party.I just w
*Grab your flashlights! Things get really dark from here.* “Fooling everyone, telling them she’s having fun.” -Lana Del ReyAmber's P.O.V I climb into the crowded SUV before being pulled onto some random guys lap as there were no vacant seats available for me. The guy driving the car turns the music back up, having my body slightly vibrate due to its somewhat intense bass. I flicker my eyes a couple of times, allowing them to adjust as I look up at the dark haired guy staring down at me. "I really like your costume." The guy whose name I don't care to know says over the music as he pulls me further down onto his crotch. "Thank you." I say into his ear as I wrap my arm around his neck, smiling as I pretend as if he were Jack. I feel the guy sitting on the other side of the car grab onto my legs before pulling them
Amber's P.O.V I look down at my reflection in the water through my blurred vision, before wiping away my fallen tears. My eyes scan around the party surrounding me, looking at the different individuals dressed up in costumes. I hate everyone here. Everyone knew about the two students from campus that went missing, it was all anyone ever talked about once it hit the news. Yet no one cared enough to actually help me look for them. I hate this campus I hate this sorority I hate this pool I hate everything!!! With shaky hands, I use the tile underneath me to bring myself back to my feet. Slowly I begin to walk away from the pool, stumbling slightly in the process as I go to find myself more alcohol in order to push away all of my sorrows. Why isn't anything strong enough? Why do I keep fucking thinking about Jack?! I need something more. As I begin to walk towards the back door in order to reach the inside of the house I feel someone ac
Jack’s P.O.V Smoke flies throughout the dark and rotted room as we ascend from the safe, having our vision be momentarily blinded. I quickly turn off my flashlight before switching on the laser sight to my gun as we cautiously go to make our escape. As we maneuver our way throughout the burnt structure the loud sound of bullets flying seems to cease, allowing the space to grow eerily silent. The addictive feeling of adrenaline rushing through my bloodstream sends my senses into a heightened state as Zac and I continue to sweep each space in which we walk into. “Rocco, copi?” Zac whispers into the radio attached to his vest as we bring ourselves into a secluded area of the barely standing estate.(Rocco, do you copy?) Static fills the space, having us both curse silently as Rocco was our emergency escape plan. Zac releases a frustrated breath of air as he turns his radio off once again, having him go to raise his gun in the process. As Zac
Jack's P.O.V "I swear I'm going to slit Luca's fucking throat if there's nothing here." Zac spits, as he shuffles in his seat, seemingly tense. I look outside my passengers side window at the dark plot of land, seeing the semi burnt and demolished property. Zac cracks his neck, trying to cope with all of the adrenaline pumping through his bloodstream as he continues to eye down the abandoned estate. "Did he ever say who sent him to collect information?" I question out. Before Zac can answer he is interrupted by the sound of his radio going off, allowing us to hear the static voice of his family's men on the other side. "Clear." Zac immediately takes action, having him quickly jump out of the car with angry footsteps as I go to reload my gun. I quickly hop out of the SUV before going to stand beside Zac, mimicking his pace. "He gave me a fake name. I looked into them, they don't ex
Gianna's P.O.V I sit in complete boredom as I stare down at the professor as she continues her long summoner about physics, no longer finding interest in her words. My eyes slowly find their way over to the empty seat beside me, having a sense of sadness fill my being as I look over at where Amber once used to sit. I feel like such a failure. The sound of the professor dismissing the class snaps me out of my thoughts, having me quickly go to collect my belongings before exiting the classroom. As I make my way through the crowded halls I decide to pull out my phone in order to text Heidi. Queen Heidi👑🥰To Queen Heidi👑🥰: Hey babes! Can I come over? I need to talk to you. Not delivered Frustration immediately wells its way into my chest as I watch my text fail to send due to its lack of service. What the fuck?!!! Why are all of my texts and calls still not going throu
Amber's P.O.V My eyes slowly open to reveal the same godforsaken cell that I've been kept in for what feels like weeks now. It's always the same. Wake up, cry, eat, sleep, repeat.It never changes. A part of me is grateful that I've been placed here because I no longer have to deal with the nonsense of the guards or any of these psychopathic people. But the other part of me is petrified as I know that I'm just here to await my inevitable demise. Slowly, I sit myself up against the hard mattress, feeling my entire body ache as I go to rub my stomach that was now holding my unborn child. A small tear begins to form as I continue to think about all of the terrible outcomes that will take place once I give birth. "I'm so sorry I can't protect you." I whisper to myself, hoping that my child would miraculously be able to hear me. "Mommy loves you very much. Don't ever forget that." I cry, feeling myself become overtaken with e
Giannas P.O.VThe bright sunlight spills into our hotel suite, causing me to slowly awaken. My eyes flutter open, having me look across the room to see that the other queen sized bed was empty and no longer being occupied by Jovana's sleeping form. I slowly rise from my spot on the bed before bringing myself into the living room area of this huge suite. As I walk over to the sofa, I notice Jovana already seated as she scrolls through different shows to watch on the huge flat screen tv. "Goodmorning." I greet as I sit myself down on the opposite end of the couch. "Finally, you're awake!" She says as she turns the tv off, now giving up on what to watch. "I was thinking that maybe we should visit that beach club that our Uber driver from yesterday was talking about. I looked up the empress hotel and their parties look out of this world." She says somewhat excitedly. I nod my head at her words having me look down at m
VDA: These are not real nightclubs in Las Vegas.Gianna's P.O.V "Please fasten your seatbelts. We will begin our descend shortly and welcome to fabulous Las Vegas." The flight attendant says over the loud intercom. A small wave of excitement begins to overtake me as I secure myself within my designated seat.I'm going to find you Amber.No matter what it takes. "Fucking finally! I feel like we've been on this plane forever now!" Heidi whines, causing me to roll my eyes at her dramatics. "It's only been an hour." Jovana states before I have the opportunity to do so myself. "An hour too long. I'd much rather have flown first class." Heidi continues to complain as the plane begins to slowly lose its altitude. "Heidi, we already went over this. If we fly first class then we-" I start to begin before being cut off. "Then we risk being caught by my fath
A Few Hours Later Amber's P.O.V I sit on the hard bed springs for what felt like hours, having hot tears burn my cheeks as I continue to stare blankly at the other side of the room. Why am I here? How long will they keep me here? Why would Jack let this happen to me? Why is this happening to me? Does he actually enjoy having me here? Will Toro actually help me get out of this place? Will I ever get my freedom back? If I never would've went to that party , would this still be happening to me? If I would've listened to Jovana and stayed home that night, would I still be here? Would everything be different if I never would've went to the police? Would I still be here if I never would've missed Jack ? I hate myself. How did I end up in this situation? How will I get out of this situation? I bring my hands up to my forehead, feeling the heavy chains on my wrist as I attempt to massage out the feverish headache in which I was feeling. Harsh hiccups rack my
Amber's P.O.V An involuntary yelp escapes me as Toro's rough hands wrap around my arm. He pulls my body to his side rather aggressively before bringing me towards the only door in this cursed room. My body continues to tremble as he leads me down the narrow halls; having more tears blur my vision as thoughts about what I just witnessed continue to cloud my mind. "Please just let me go! I-I p-promise I don't know a-anything! I told Zac everything I know! Please... you have to b-believe me." I say, begging with the man for dear life as he continues to take me to the unknown. Toro says nothing in response, not even sparing me a single glance as he continue to drag me down the hall towards the elevator in which I originally came from. Uncontrollable sobs continue to escape me as images of Violets blood spilling into the carpet continue to haunt me.I can't believe she's dead. I can't believe Zac just killed her right in front of me
Gianna's P.O.V It's been nearly two months since ambers disappearance and no one seems to know anything. The police have been absolutely no fucking help in this and Xion claims to not have any information that could possibly help me find her. I just don't understand how this could've happened. I've searched the entire internet for information on Zac and his family but I can never find anything useful.The internet makes it seem as if his family are charitable saints that own legitimate businesses and donate to children's hospitals. It's all bullshit! A loud groan escapes my lips as I slam my computer shut in frustration. I push my body off of my bed's frame before going over to my purse and quickly retrieving my dab pen. I inhale a deep breath of smoke before exhaling and releasing all of the built up tension within me. As I stand in the corner of the space my eyes wander over to ambers old side of the room, making me think back to the conversation
