Charlotte

I spent the night riding around, I didn't have any responsibilities and I could do whatever I wanted, I didn't have my phone to worry about or my meds or Liam.

There was only one thing on my mind.

Monroe.

Or whoever the fuck that person is who wants to kill me.

I rode around until I found a petrol station, I went inside and went straight over to the alcohol.

I pulled a bottle of vodka from them shelf and then grabbed a breakfast bar. I went over to the counter and lined my items up.

The man working the till was a middle aged man who had a beer belly and grey hairs sprouting from his face and head.

He reeked of sweat.

"You got ID?" He asked as he scanned the two items.

"No." I shrugged as I placed the twenty on the counter.

"You're gonna need some ID."

"Well, I don't have it so unfortunately you'll just have to take my word for it."

"No can do."

I sighed, "for fucks sake." I ran my thumb and index finger over my brows before an idea came to mind. I looked up at him, "I can blow you?" I offered.

"ID or no sale, sorry." He said.

I picked up my money and started walking out of the shop, "ugh, fuck me." I groaned to myself.

I went around to the back of the shop and went into the bathroom, I looked in the mirror and cringed at myself. I had a few spots of blood on my cheek and purple lined my under eyes.

I pulled off the glasses from my face and the beanie from off my head and threw them on the floor.

I turned on the tap and cupped the water in my hands and then scrubbed my face.

I pulled the bobble from my hair and flipped my hair over. I pulled my hair into a quick high ponytail and left the bathroom.

From the clock inside the shop, I could tell that it was almost 6 am. I needed to go shopping for a few things so that's where I decided to spend my day.

After shopping and riding around for a little while it was four o'clock.

I found a bathroom and changed my clothes, I bought some new black jeans and a black hoodie, I needed to stay as incognito as possible.

I had to go home, not to see Liam or even Stiles but I needed my phone.

I made my way back home and parked my bike outside, there were no other cars outside so I figured that I'd be alright.

I went to put my key in the lock but it was already open. Fuck.

I walked inside the house and hung up my leather jacket, I didn't need it anymore. As I was about to head upstairs I heard Liam.

"Charlotte?" He came rushing into the hallway with Theo by his side.

I continued to walk up the stairs, not letting him stop me from what I needed to do.

"Charlotte wait please." Liam said and I stopped walking and turned back to face him.

He seemed defeated but there was a glimmer of hope and happiness in his eyes.

"Can you talk to me? What's going on?" He asked and that was the point where I decided no, I wouldn't talk to him.

I went into my room and grabbed my phone. I heard Theo and Liam make their way up the stairs so that they were waiting in my room as I ran around my room collecting all of the cash that I had hidden.

I was stood in the middle of my room counting the notes in my hand when they came in and stood in the door frame.

"Charlotte, I just want to make sure you're ok." He pleaded.

"Why wouldn't I be?" I asked.

"Well, for one, you smell like blood and death and, two, you haven't taken your meds today or yesterday." He said.

"I don't need them."

At the time, I knew that I needed them and I knew that I was going through a psychotic break but I didn't seem to care.

"Umm.. yes you do." Theo said.

Liam looked over at him and told him off without saying a word, Theo didn't flinch but I had a feeling he got the message.

"I'm busy, alright? I just need a few things and then I'm gone." I said.

I counted $129 and then stuffed it into my back pocket.

I walked into my bathroom and grabbed my birth control from the counter, I walked back into the room still holding it in my hands.

"So you're going to take your pills?" Liam asked motioning with his hand to the pills I was holding.

"These are my birth control." I rolled my eyes.

"So you'll take those but you won't take the pills that will literally stop you from murdering people?" He guessed.

"Can't you get off my ass? I have something to do but I'll be back by maybe the end of the week?" I estimated.

I walked over to my nightstand and pulled out my purse, it had my credit cards and driver's license in, I pulled out the money and put it in one of the pockets.

I shoved past the two boys and walked down the stairs, I walked straight out of the door and got onto my bike and left without looking back.
