.Through The Dark.(H.S)

Chapter 11

Once Harry had left, I literally was bored out of my mind. I took a walk, watched an episode of Sherlock Homes, did laundry, cleaned my house, and even had the time to take a nap. I really didn't know what time Harry dropped me off, but by the time I checked the clock it was only four o'clock. What do I do now?

I laid upside down on my couch, with my head on the floor and my body laying on the couch. I decided to try and read upside down, knowing that my plan would be a huge failure. I actually got to read about two whole pages before my head started throbbing, making me get an urge to lay on the floor. I was laying on the floor with my back on the cold wood before I burst into a fit of giggles.

"What in the hell am I doing?" I laughed before standing up and going into my room and changing into a white t-shirt and some navy sweats. I brushed out my hair to try and tame the bed head before washing my face again. I checked the time again to see that only thirty minutes had passed. Why is my life so boring?

I let out a grumble of frustration before pouting for ten minutes. I pulled out my phone and decided to text El about more details for the club. and giving her my address. Of course, she texted back immediately.

E: Its downtown. We will be fine babe, trust me. And be prepared to have loads of fun! :D

"Joy." I muttered. I knew that she wasn't going to tell me much, but I was still curious. I paced around the house before settling back on the couch with my nest of cozy blankets.

I thought about actually going the doctor and checking out my wrist, but then decided against it. I honestly don't feel like doing anything. Hell, I don't even want to think. But no matter how hard I try, I never will succeed. What if I clean out the safe? I haven't cleaned it in about two years.

With that small voice in my head, I grabbed some dusting tools and headed upstairs, walking to my closet before moving all of my clothing from the center and opening my safe. 19-31-17-24 the numbers rang through my head like a song. If anyone knew this, I really must trust them.

Once my safe was open, Immediately I take out the picture of my family, then my neat stacks of money towards the back, then my drawing book- when I actually thought I could draw- filled with scenery's of forests, the ocean that I have only seen once in my whole lifetime, and some face portraits of people in my dreams. I throw the notebook on my bed before reaching back into my safe to snatch my mum's and dad's wedding rings.

After those men shot my family, they didn't even bother to touch the bodies. I took their wedding rings because It reminded me of a sense of security. Funny I know, but not not everything lasts forever. Trust me, I know that.

I felt silly that I didn't have a lot of useful items in my safe. I mean come on, who the hell has a picture and a notebook in a safe? I scolded myself quietly, dusting my safe and cleaning it, hoping that it wouldn't look so depressing after it was clean. I was just putting my items back in the safe as I heard a loud knock on my front door.

I swiftly shoved everything in my safe, locking it, and throwing my clothing back into my closet, being precise to cover my secret hiding spot before I rushed downstairs. I put my dusting stuff away and ran to the door to see El and Dani with grins on there faces.

"Hey babe! Can we come in?" El asked, fidgeting with her huge bag beside her petite body and Dani struggling to hold two bags in her hands. My eyes widened, opening my door wider and ushering them inside. They both muttered a thank you and threw the bags on my couch.

Dani gave me a smirk before looking around my house. "Someone was busy.''

I chuckled nervously. "Yeah, I was bored and I decided that I needed to clean for a change." I watched as El and Dani looked at me with a confused look on there faces.

"What?" I asked.

"Where are your parents?" Dani questioned. I felt my face pale, but I still managed to make myself smile sadly.

"Uh, They died. I'm the only one who lives here." I stated quietly. They gasped and rambled apologies at me. I brushed them off before collecting myself and giving them a frown.

"Why can't we all just go to the movies and not get drunk?" I whined before they both snickered at my behavior.

"Because, Movies are for kids. Now, where is your room? We need to start getting ready." El teased before making me guide them up the stairs and into my room with the abnormally large bags that they were carrying

Dani pushed me onto the edge of my bed, then started to play with my hair. "Damn, your hair is super soft. I would kill for hair like this." She said before she pulled out some dresses from her huge bag.

El had a big bag of heels, makeup, and some curling irons and straighteners. I never straightened or curled my hair because I always knew that one day I would light my house on fire. So those were never an option.

They started to talk quietly to each other before they started to throw a black glittery dress at me. I barely looked at it for ten seconds before they literally threw me into the bathroom.

"Try it on!" El screeched before I heard footsteps walking away from the door. I slipped out of my clothes and into the dress, my mouth nearly falling open by the amount of skin I was showing. It was very low cut in the back, and It was really short. It only ends about five inches before my butt. But besides that, it hugged my small curves tightly. I actually felt beautiful for once. I gathered my clothes and walked out of the bathroom and back to my room to see Dani and El already wearing dresses and applying there makeup.

Dani was putting on some blush when I walked in. She looked at me then gasped and slapped El right before she was about to ask her what had happened. They both turned to look at me with an awe look on there faces.

''Babe, That dress looks amazing on you." El squealed. Dani nodded in agreement. I chuckled lightly before tugging the dress down more, still feeling that it was a size too small.

"Thanks..." I muttered before walking back into my bathroom to put on some simple makeup. I applied some black eyeliner and a minimal amount of mascara. I didn't do anything with my hair, simply because I didn't want to. I liked my natural waves- despite the fact that it was a pain to pull into a bun or ponytail.

After I exited the bathroom, The girls were already done, and slipping on some heels. Dani wore a strapless white dress slowly fading into black towards the bottom, ending a few inches above her knees. Dani's hair was straightened to perfection and her makeup was flawless. El wore a skin tight off-the-shoulder wine red dress, ending above her knees.with El gave me a look and handed me some sparkly black heels, making my eyes winded by how tall they were. By the end of the night, I will fall to my death.

"Please? for me?" She begged as I gulped before putting one on, standing on one foot as I slipped on the other. I smiled nervously before taking a small step, suddenly stumbling over thin air and falling onto Dani with a grunt. She laughed hysterically.

"Jesus, baby steps love." Dani teased before I pulled myself up and continued to fail at life. After a few minutes of actually remembering to walk, I almost knew how to walk in heels. Almost.

"Lets go already! I want to have some fun!" El squealed before zooming away with her keys in one hand and a small purse in the other. Dani zoomed down the stairs after her, not bothering to wait for me.

I did the most silliest thing ever imaginable.

I sat on the top step and slowly went down the steps- on my butt. I felt like a dog rubbing his bum on the carpeting after walking back inside. I mentally face palmed myself after I reached the end of the stairs before I wobbled outside and into the backseat of Eleanor's car. I buckle my seat belt, ignoring their snickers in front of me.

"Time for some fun ladies, may the odds be ever in your favor." Eleanor snickered. Little did I know that this night would change my life forever.
