The Midnight Gang

Chapter 21

More arguing. 

My life is slowly falling apart piece by piece since my father entered it. I started arguing with him. Then he twisted my friends minds and they started arguing with me. Then me and Michael broke up. Twisted my friends minds even more and currently I'm arguing with Alyson.

"Scarlett! We haven't had to risk our lives since you met your father! Now you're blaming your life problems on him?! He's been so kind to all of us since that ball! Deal with your life problems without blaming your father for it!"

"He is the cause for all my problems though! He left me! He abandoned me! That is life changing! He's the cause for all my problems! And he's bloody brainwashed all of you if you can't see that!"

"No. The only person who can't see it is you. He's trying so hard to come back into your life! Your bloody royalty and you're pushing it away! I would kill for that!"

"I don't want to be royalty! Don't you see that! I don't want it! I don't want any of it!"

"Then that's your problem. You never want what your given. Never have. And that is your problem, not your father, not us. You."

"Oh yeah. My life is always the problem! I'm always the one who never takes what I'm given! That's the thing that's causing my problems. Totally."

"Open your eyes Scarlett! Everything around you either dies or disappears. You pushed Michael away. Your dad didn't even want you. You're always arguing with us about your life! Get a grip on it!"

"Your right! My life is fucked up! My life is a mess! But you, of all people Alison, I expected you to understand what I'm going through. But the one thing I will do is get a grip on it. I'll get out of your way and leave. I'll leave your life and get a grip on mine because apparently you obviously don't like me or my life anymore!"

And I grabbed my bag that I had packed since we started arguing and left.

10 minutes out in the open and I was out cold. Someone wrapped a cloth socked in a sleeping drug and knocked me out. Well fuck.
