The Joker on my shoulder [#1]

chapter 7

Taylors P.O.V

I was checking my Facebook, which is weird cause I barely use it. While I was scrolling my newsfeed my phone vibrated telling me that I have a text, so I checked it. Hmm. Its from sage.
Your girlfriend? "Ssssshhhut up Grimm." Do you like her?

Shut up. Hmm? Shut up,
You do like her don't you? Taylor.

Go away Grimm. Never. I will be here till the end of-

I put my ear buds in so I didn't hear what he said after.
Sage: Taylor, are you alright?
Me: ya, why wouldn't I be?
Sage: well there was a fatal car accident and Grimm told me to check up on u.
Me: oh, ok.
Sage: bye Taylor.
Me: bye Sage.

I got up from my bed and stretched, that was a strange conversation. I took my ear buds out.

"Grimm why did you tell her to check up on me?"
I don't know what your talking about,

"Playing dumb?"
No.

"Grimm your such a-"

My phone vibrated in my hand a couple times to tell me that someone was calling me. I looked at the caller ID; it was sage.

"Hello?"

"Umm, Taylor can you please come to my house?" She sounds scared.

"Uh. Sure,"

She hung up before I could ask her why.
Who was that, Taylor? Your girlfriend again?

"You know Grimm, every time you speak your voice just gets annoying each time."
Ouch. That hurt, Taylor.

Time to put my ear buds in again.

Wonderless by pierce the veil came on. My playlist mostly only exist of songs by Eminem, pierce the veil, all time low, black veil brides, and green day. Yep.

I was just walking over to Sage's when my phone vibrated, Again.
Mom: hi hun, I have a late shift at the hospital. Leftovers in the fridge if you get hungry. Love you. XOXO
Me: OK mom. Love you too.

I'm glad I have a mom like mine. She takes extra shifts at work so she can pay for school fees and food and bills. I don't have a dad, never met him. My mom says that she misses him everyday. He died before I was born, in a car accident.

When I made it to Sage's I knocked on the door. I waited for a while then I heard footsteps behind the door.

When the door opened there stood Sage, she looked like she seen a ghost.

Grimm.
