Natalie's POV

  " Tricia!... Definitely her!" Ariana piped out the second I finished narrating the incident to her. I looked at her and shrugged. Sure, her intuitions were hardly ever wrong... It's still hard to take her on her word sometimes. We had given the stuff we found to Maggie because she said she had a friend who was a pharmacist and could help us identify the rest of the drugs used. She promised to get back to us tomorrow.

  " How do you know that? You've only been in school for two days?" I said back, staring at her as she brushed her hair.

  " Come on... That girl can never be clean. Have you seen the way she stared at me in class? Like she wants to murder me but can't because she knows I'll kill her too." She said and folded her hands.

   I chuckled then sobered up quickly.

  " But why would she do that? There are other ways to attract a guy's attention rather than drugging them up." I muttered.

    Natalie's P. O. V" You don't mean that, do you?" I ask, dumbfounded. She scoffed." And why would I lie to you? " She asked instead. Ariana glanced at me, confused." But they don't have the same surname." Ariana pointed out." That's due to Lucy's mental health. I'm pretty sure Xander must have told you about it." She said. We nodded." Wait... Why are you telling us this?" I asked, not sure if I should trust her. She sighed." Lucy is coming back soon. I'm suspecting Tricia has something in store for her, but I don't know exactly what. Whatever it is... It's dangerous. And no force in the world can stop her."" Well, except for you guys. You're the only ones whose skin she hasn't gotten under yet. Please do something."" And how are you so sure we can do something?? We don't know what exactly Tricia has in mind," Ariana says." You'll figure something out, I'm sure of that. Thanks for listening." Bella said and walked away.Ariana

    Lucy's P. O. VMy first glance at him after two years and the first thought that entered my head was, I don't deserve this guy... Like not at all. He looked so handsome with the stunned look on his face I wanted to rush over and hug him, inhale his scent... Maybe even cry on his shoulders and tell him how much I missed him. But instead, I fiddled with my fingers and looked down, avoiding his gaze." Lucy?" He repeated as if to be sure I was the one. I peeked at him, my lips quivering." Hi..." I muttered again, biting my lower lips. " Long time no see," I said nervously." It's. Really... You... Wha... When did you get here? I'm sorry, hello." He rambled on. I chuckled softly." I just back today, and I wanted to see you first," I muttered, glancing at him." Oh...." He trailed off, still staring at me. I took in a deep breath and cracked." Xander... I'm, really, really, really, really, really sorry." I said, unconsciously counting off my fingers.

    Lucy's P. O. VI arrived at school today, and people couldn't stop murmuring and staring at me. They were still the same old faces, except for a few additions and one of the brother's close friends, Darren. " Isn't that Xander's ex-girlfriend?"" She is, and what is she doing here?"" Didn't she ditch him?"" Damn! She's pretty."Those were the few of the many statements they were making about me. A strange girl with purple hair waved, and I stopped and turned, thinking it was someone different. But then she pointed at me. Ok... This is weird. Without hesitating, she walked up to me and greeted me, a smile on her face....Ariana's P. O. VI'm guessing this is the Lucy they've all been talking about, which is weird because she looks pretty natural. Wait... Who am I kidding? She's the daughter of one of the richest businessmen in new Orleans. Of course, she has to look natural! Well, nice Ariana mode activated."Hi..." I

    (Next day)Ariana's P. O. VI hurried over to the rest and stopped right in front of them, panting." Hey, guys... Good morning." I greeted, taking in deep breaths. They all looked at me quizzically." Good morning? What's wrong?" They all asked." Have you guys seen Natalie? Cause I haven't seen her since last night."" What do you mean you haven't seen her since last night? Darren asked." Isn't she supposed to be with you?"" No, I thought she was with Mira. She went out last night and didn't tell me where she was headed." I said. Mira looked confused." Natalie wasn't with me last night." She slowly said. " She didn't even call me at all."" Okay... That's strange. I've tried calling her since last night and she hasn't been picking up. I had to lie to her brothers that she slept over in one of her other friend's houses."" You aren't saying Natalie is missing, are you?" Darren asked." No... Although I might be speculating it

    Lucy's POVI hurried over to a separate room in the house where we were and cleaned my bleeding nose. I was stressing too much, and it was terrible for me. I rummaged my bag for my pills and, seeing it, used some and gulped down a bottle of water. Just then, my phone rang. I picked it up, and it was Tricia calling." I can't do it!" I yelled as I picked it up." What do you mean, you can't do it?? It's not that hard. Just eliminate Natalie and you'll be fine."" I just told you, I can't do it. I'm not a killer."" Oh really? You're not going to do it. So then what? You're just gonna let what you've been working hard for go to waste? Why did you start it if you knew you weren't going to end it?" I... I don't have to strength too." I muttered, biting my lips." Take it easy on yourself, Lucy. It's not that hard, just go over there... Put the bullet in her head and boom, she'll be gone, goodbye. Now go, I won't repeat myself."" Okay... I mutter

    Natalie's P. O. VXander and Xavier were on the floor, but when Xavier rolled over, I realized he had taken the bullet for Xander. Xander just lay there, shocked about the whole thing. Who knew this would happen?? The gun had long dropped from Lucy's hands when she managed to process everything and she stood there dazed. Then began to mutter little incoherent things to herself while twisting her hair." I just murdered someone!" She said out loud before finally passing out, falling to the floor. I just stood there, dazed. Xavier's painful groan brought me back to the room. He was already bleeding." Oh, my God. No! " I muttered quietly as I went out towards him. He was shot in the stomach and when I tried to touch it, he groaned out loud. I stopped, my lips quivering." I'm sorry," I mumbled and looked up at Xander, who was still staring at everything as if it was a movie. I walked up to him as well, shaking him roughly." Will you at least get yourself toge

    Tricia's P. O. VI bowed my head out of shame as my mum reprimanded me. After the most embarrassing moment of my life at the hospital, I was taken to the police station where I was put into a cell. " How could you do this to your sister! What if she died??" my mum yelled at me and I cringed." She's not my sister!" I shot back, tears filling and streaming out my eyes." Really? What is she then?? Your maid? For goodness’ sake Tricia, I warned you. Even if she doesn't see you like one, she's never done anything to hurt you. Her dad might not be much of a father to you, but he isn't much a father to his daughter as well. She lives miles away from him!"I choked out, sobbing quietly." I just wanted something of my own. Something that I could point out as mine... And I didn't have any." I blurted." And you have that." My mom said gently. " If you were a little nicer, you'll know that you had that.

    Natalie's P. O. VI was on my way back to Middesville but this time I didn't go alone; I went with my newfound friends and boyfriend on a bus. Today is my birthday and instead of celebrating it with a bunch of crappy people I didn't know, I decided to go to a place where people knew me well and I was allowed to do whatever I want.
