A Christmas Wish Come True (part ll)

Chapter Ten

Maria's POV:

I watch in horror as when Amelia steps closer, Amy starts going in front of me with a small glare.

"What are you doing here?!" Any yells. "You said I could take Maria! You knew that after awhile I had a crush on her! You said I could go to prom with her!"

Amelia steps closer, wearing what she wanted to wear other than the dress I'm wearing to prom;

         (The dress⬆️)

The dress matches her eyes perfectly as she runs over to me and Amy. Amy dosen't look too happy she's here.

"Amy!" Amelia yells, tears welling in her eyes. "I just wanted her to be happy, I never thought that you would trick her!"

"trick me?!" I cry, looking back at Amy.

"I... I" Amy started, but it was no use.

Amelia grits her teeth, dragging Amy away. Her and Amy run outside as they battle it out.

I just take a shaky breath as I start trying to back away, but I run into a boy who's wearing a suit who looks alone. He grins down at me.

"Hello." He says in a deep voice that I fell in love with immedtly.

"H....hi." i stammer smiling weakly after a moment.

He grins his pearly white teeth down at me making my breath get caught. "What's a beautiful girl like you doing without a boyfriend?"

I didn't even think before speaking. "I'm not sure, but you're really cute." I giggle. What's going on?

My head starts spinning as I turn torwards him, smiling. This isn't right, what am I doing? Why don't I remember anything? Why am I calling this boy cute? Did I take some pills I wasn't supposed to? Did I drink something that was bad? Am I drunk?

He just laughs slightly as he wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me close. I just giggle slightly as I pull myself closer to him, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"You're beautiful" he says, smiling down at me, making me chuckle.

I smile more as I stare up at him.  His eyes are like sapphires in the midnight sky.  I sigh dreamily as i gaze at him.

"Now, come with me, I missed you so." He says.  That's when I notice, it's the one I hate; Josh.

My eyes widen.  "Josh?!" I yelp.

Before he can awnser, a few of his friends take me outside as I struggle, no one seeing me.  My vision starts going blurry as I try to scream for help.  No use, someone puts their hands over my mouth and another ties me, throwing me in the backseat of a car. 

Next thing I know, I'm in a dark room.  I smell the damp air, the dripping sound from a faust.  Where am I?

I hear laughing with some footsteps walking downstairs.  Maybe three sets of feet.

I stay quiet as I hear them getting closer, my heart racing.

I gulp as they come to a stop.  I listen quietly, but I don't hear a sound besides the dripping of water.

"Well, it looks like someone's awake." I hear a familiar voice say; Josh.

"How did you find me?" I force myself to speak.  It was hard not to stutter.  I was scared.  I didn't know what was going on.  I was still blind-folded, so what if they're ready to kill me? But, if they wanted to kill me, why haven't they done it yet?

"Maria, it was easy.  We've been tracking you down for awhile.  I'm shocked you haven't found me yet.  Plus, your friends won't find you, either. We're in a hideout no-one but  Mike, a few others, and me know about this place." He laughs.

I lay the side of my head on the hard, cold, cement.  By the feel of it, I think I'm in a basement.

I stay silent as someone kicks me in the ribs.

"Let her be for now." I hear Josh say while laughing.  "She'll be fine for the night.  Let her starve till she tells us, if she dosen't want to tell us where her little friends are, then we'll try to get it out of her, but if she dosen't tell us anything..." Him along with his friends laugh as they walk upstairs, their voices fading as they walk upstairs.

I need to escape. I thought.  Immedtly.

Amelia's POV:

I grit my teeth as me and Amy storm out of the gymasiumm.

"Why did you do that to her!" I shriek as we're conpletly away from the gymasiumm so only Amy could hear me.

She glares at me.  "You told me to tell her that you were forgotten!"

"So lieing to her and telling her that I'm gone and dead in the ashes is gonna help?! Just so you can take my girlfriend away from me?!" I cry.  Tears in my eyes.

She takes a moment to respond.  I can tell with what she's about to say, it's gonna be probably the worst thing she's ever told me.  "Well maybe you shouldn't have died! Maybe you should've-" she stays for a moment, her voice getting quiet as tears roll down her cheeks, starring at me.  "M-----maybe if you would've died a long time ago, and stayed dead, maybe we wouldn't be in this mess, and neither would Maria."

I stand there, starring at her with tears and disbelif in my eyes.

"H--how could you even say that?" I whisper.

Her eyes widen on what she just said and she puts her hand on her mouth, her in disbelief too.  "Amelia, please..."

"No."  I say flatly as a wipe away tears and walk away, Amy calling my name, but I just ignore her.

I don't even care about the stupid prom.  I wanted to go with Maria, but, she's with Amy.

Tears well in my eyes again as I think of Amy.  How could she have said that? I thought it was beat friends stick together till the end? Not break at the end.

I decide since I should just go say bye to Maria, I should go back inside.

I walk inside, looking around for Maria.

After a minute I hear a car peeling out.  I run outside seeing a girl in the backseat with many men holding her down.  Wait. I thought.

"Maria?!"
