I literally can't breath.

I keep gasping, my eyes wide open.

I turn to Brian and I see him looking at me with an unreadable expression on his face.

I turn back to my mum.

"Come on, Nessa." She says. Just like in my dream.

She takes a step towards me and I instinctively take a step backwards. I know she's my mother but she can't just disappear and appear in my life whenever she wants.

I look at Brian again, wondering how on earth he knows my mum. My head keeps reeling. What's going on?

I need to get out of here.

I turn around and run down the corridor.

I run downstairs and out of the party. Then I look around. I didn't know where I am right now.

Then, I remember my phone is still in the party. I have to go back and get it.

I sigh.

I rush in, grab my phone and run out. I run down the street at the same time calling Tory.

"Hey, bitch. Where are you!?" I hear Tory scream.

"Just come pick me up." I tell her.

"Where are you?" She asks.

"I dunno." I tell her, breathing heavily.

I can hear her sigh and tell someone she'll be right back.

"I'm coming to get you." She tells me.

***********************************

Few minutes later, I'm in Tory's car, riding home. Tory got my location and met me sitting on the sidewalk.

"So....... What happened?" She asks me quietly.

I tell her everything, leaving out the part of my mum reappearing.

She sighs and doesn't say anything. She keeps driving. She takes a turn and stops in front of her house.

I look at her questioningly,

"You need to change. Come on." She says.

I get down from her car and walk over to the huge house.

She pulls out her key and I go in. Her parents aren't home. Weird.

I go to her room and lay down on her bed. I just don't want to think about all that has happened today. I need to be free.

I sigh as Tory comes in.

"Hey. Got you some clothes." She says and hands over some gorgeous dresses to me. I pick one with floral designs on it and change quickly.

I look at Tory as I put on the heels.

" Why are we getting dressed up? Going out?" I ask and without waiting for an answer, I rant on.

"Anywhere we go, let there be alcohol. I need some booze tonight, okay? This has been the shitiest birthday ever. I mean, I got kidnapped and my......." I stop myself but I was too late.

Tory glance at me.

"Your what?"

"Nevermind. Let's go." I say and walk ahead.

I get into her car and relax. She gets in too and drives off.

In no time, we're at my house. I look at her again,

"I dressed up so you can bring me home?"

"Come on." She says.

I sigh and get down. She opens the door and I walk in. The whole place is dark.
