Highschool Clichés

~Chapter 38~

I had less than a month left.

Just a few more weeks until I walked on that platform across a makeshift stage to collect my highschool diploma. A few more weeks, until I was lost and forgotten in a sea of girls to do God knows what with my life.

Seth was taking it hard though. For the past couple of weeks he's been on me non stop. It's not that I'm complaining about the sex. Far from it. But he's been treating me like he's about to loose me any second and I hate it. He's not even going with our original plan to hide our relationship.

Everyone probably suspects that we're back together now. What has me so puzzled about it, is the Queen Bee herself. The fact that Naomi has been laying low for the past few weeks had me on edge. I know that she knows about Seth and I, but she does absolutely nothing about it. She doesn't even look at me anymore. It's concerning.

But what really has me sweating bras is the constant nightmares I've been having. I get the same dream over and over again.

The same faceless man points a gun at another faceless man and shoots him in cold blood. Someone laughs, and I'm left feeling like I've suffered a deep loss.

I can't ignore the nagging feeling that it means something. Seth is fighting for us, and I need to do the same too. I can't just sit around and let Dimitri have his way. It's my life, and I'll be damned if I let him dictate it. It isn't my fault my mom was a greedy thief.

I stare at the card in my hands deciding that it's time. If I wanted my life to go the way I planned it, then I have to take certain measures into my own hands. Even if I'd most likely regret the consequences.

"Wait, what?" Everett stares at me like I'm crazy. He turns his attention to Seth, "You're in on this too?"

Seth sighs, running his hands through his hair. "It's the only way."

"And what about you?" Everett growls, "Are you even thinking about the possibility that you can fucking die?"

I look down at my lap at that. "I know that's a high chance but it's a risk we're both willing to take." I said, avoiding contact with everyone.

Seth and I made a plan on what we were planning on doing in the coming weeks for graduation.

Brenna turns Everett's face to hers, giving him a knowing look. "How would you feel if you were going to loose me? I know it's not the same, but their our friends, and I've grown to love Raven like she's my sister. We both know what Dimitri's capable of, but maybe this can work."

She looks at me then, giving me a small smile. "You have my support, girl." I smile, fighting back tears. I never knew she felt that way. And here I was, saying that I didn't consider her a friend. She's more than that to me now.

Everett sighs, giving me a hard stare before rolling his eyes. "I can't believe I'm agreeing to this shit..." he mutters under his breath. "So, where do I come in?" Seth smiles, before laying out the plan that we came up with.

It was until late in the evening Everett and Brenna said they had to go. After going over the plan for a few hours making sure it was near perfect, they decided that it was time for them to go. Seth stayed a bit longer, but then he said he had to go as well.

"You gonna be alright?" I smile and lift my hands to his forehead, smoothing out his furrowed brows. "I'll be fine." He leans down and gives me a hard kiss. I moan as he sweeps his tongue into my mouth. He nibbles a little on my lower lip, before smoothing out the bite with his tongue. I grip his shirt, feeling that magnetic pull that always seems to be around us and making us go at it like rabbits.

"You sure?" I can understand his worry. He's scared now that time is running out on us. I peck his lips a few more times before nodding. He sighs and promises to call me later.

I watch him walk away and get in his car before pulling away. Not long after I close the door, someone barges in, scaring the shit out of me.

I scream as some strange guy rushes in and heads straight for me. I run to the stairs but another guy comes out of nowhere and grabs me. I kick, slap, bite and scream all at once giving them hell.

"Fucking, bitch." I hear one curse at me.

As the two hulks try to hold me down, a larger guy comes towards me with a cloth and puts it over my nose and mouth while I'm shaking my head. I try to fight the feeling of over overwhelming drowsiness, but I just couldn't. And before I could possibly hit them again, the darkness consumed me.

I blink back tears as I wake up from a dreamless sleep. My head feels like it weighs a ton and the loud music playing doesn't exactly help.

I look around, and the first thing that greets me is the sight of naked women walking around and spinning around on poles in all shapes, colours and sizes. It's then that I realize that I'm in the same club I met Domani at a couple months ago. Except this time, I'm in some private corner.

My whole body protests as I sit up from laying down on the couch that the strange men put me on. What the fuck did they drug me with?

"You're awake, mi amor. Welcome to the party!" I stare at Domani blankly as he gives me a wide ass smile. He's surrounded by naked girls, as they dance around him. One even puts her breast in his face and he grins up at her before sucking on her nipple. She holds his head in place and moans as he tweaks the other one.

I look away from the sight, feeling disgusted.

"Why am I here?"

He pulls away from the woman's breast and gives me another rare smile before he roughly pushes the her away, making sher fall to the ground. Her cheeks turn pink in embarrassment, but she brushes it off and makes her way out to the other men awaiting their turn.

"Come here," he says with a dark glint in his eyes. I gingerly walk over to him, sitting as far away as possible. He laughs and pats the space beside him. "Why so far away?"

"Why am I here?" I ask again, getting frustrated. He shrugs with that weird ass smile on his face again. The few times I've seen the man I've never seen him smile. It's making me nervous.

"I wanted you get a feel on your job." He points to the girls in front of us dancing with their assets out for everyone to see. "That'll be you, mi amor." I swallow the lump that's formed in my throat. "I've seen enough."

He laughs again.

"But that's not even the best part," he says grinning. He then digs into his pocket and takes out a white powdered substance in a small clear bag. I can feel all the blood drain from my face. I know exactly what he has in his hands.

Cocaine.

He makes two lines of it on the small table in front of us with a card and leans back. His smile now gone. "Snort it," he says, his tone deep and deadly.

I shake my head. "No."

He raises a brow, looking at me in amusement. "No?"

"No," I say more firmly, my heart racing.

"Not a fan?"

I glare at him without answering. Before I could even blink, he takes out a gun and points it at me. I gasp, looking into his eyes. "It wasn't a question, mi amor."

I stare at the gun in my face for a few more seconds before hesitantly leaning down and inhaling the cocaine on the table. He pushes my head down when I come up from only taking a small portion. "More," he says, gripping my hair tightly.

My nostrils burn as I inhale more. He finally lets me up when I feel like I'm about to pass out.

I blink a couple times and wipe my nose. I look down and gasp when I see blood on my hands. Domani calls one of his guards over and points to me. "Bring me some—"

I pass out again before I could hear anything else.
