After locking up I headed out to my jeep and went home. As soon as I walked through the door Sidney was bombarding me with questions. "What happened? Did Stu talk to you? Did Billy say anything to you?" I sighed, walked past her and went to my room to change. "Y/N! What happened?" Sidney asked, following me into my room. "Nothing, Sidney. Nothing happened. They got a couple movies and left. Stu didn't say anything. Billy didn't say anything. They just got the movies and left," I said.

I started pulling sweatpants and a tee shirt out of my dresser. "There is no way they didn't say anything," she said, following me to the bathroom. "Well they didn't. Billy didn't say a word to me and Stu only said what I told you on the phone. Mickey didn't even say anything more to me. So please just drop it," I said and closed the bathroom door.

What the fuck was I going to do? I started the shower and got in then just stood there. Was I going to go to Stu's dorm room tomorrow night? Should I listen to him? It wouldn't be right to just pin everything on Billy. Not when Stu had just as much to do with it as he did. Maybe I should just keep playing dumb and act like I don't know what he's talking about. I could use Mickey as a way to make him jealous that he outs himself. But I also wanted to listen to what he had to say because then maybe I could use it not only against Billy but against him too. I could call him. Would he be with Billy and Mickey? Maybe they had girls over to watch the movies they got tonight.

I was pulled out of my thoughts when Sidney started banging on the door. "Y/N? Are you okay? You've been in there for like an hour." I shut the water off and stepped out of the tube. Have I really been in here that long? "I'm fine!" I yelled. I cried off, pulled on my clothes, and did my nightly routine. When I opened the door Sidney was standing there. "Are you sure you're alright?" She asked. I walked past her and into the kitchen, "I'm fine, Sid. I just needed to let the hot water loosen my muscles."

She sighed but didn't keep nagging me. "Well, I won't be home tomorrow night," she said. I turned and looked at her, "okay. Where are you going to be?" I asked. "I have a date with that guy I told you about. The one I met at the party," she said. I took a sip of my water and narrowed my eyes. "Right— Darren," I said. She rolled her eyes, "it's Derek." I waved her off and headed to my room, "yeah. Yeah. When will you be home?" I asked. "I don't know. I'm not sure what he has planned. Will you be okay? Do you work?" She asked. I looked up at her from my bed as she stood in my doorway. "I'll be fine. I'm close again tomorrow night. Have fun but not too much fun," I said and winked. She shook her head, walked out of my room and closed the door.

"I'll see you on Friday, Addie!" Brian, one of the guys that I worked with said as he was leaving for the night. "See ya," I said. The bell above the door rang as he walked out to his car. I was closing as I usually did. We did close until eleven Monday through Wednesday and on Sundays. Saturday and Friday we closed at midnight.

I tried to work as much as I could. It kept me from doing anything stupid. Like going to Windsor and knocking on Stu's door. I was usually always too tired to do anything after work too. It's been like that for the past two weeks.

I was putting away returns when I heard the bell above the door ring. I looked over to see Sidney walk in with a guy. I walked over to her, "hey, sis." She looked up at me and smiled, "hey, Addie. This is Derek," she said. I looked up at him and smiled. "Derek, this is my sister Addie." He stuck out his hand for me to shake and I just looked at it, "Hi," was my only greeting. "Addie. You're the girl Mickey hasn't shut up about and the reason he has a black eye and busted lip," he said. I looked at him in confusion, "I'm sorry?"

"Mickey said he met you at the Halloween party my fraternity threw. He came here last night with two other guys," he said. I nodded, "right. Yeah, of course. Why does he have a black eye?" I asked. "He was talking about you. How he wanted to ask you out and then he said something not so appropriate that pissed Stu off. We were drunk but he kept telling Mickey he needs to stay away from you because you're his girlfriend and then ended up hitting him when Mickey told him his girlfriend was dead," he explained. I felt the air in my lungs vanish. I looked at Sidney not knowing what to do or what to say.

"Why would Mickey say that?" She asked Derek. He cleared his throat, "Stu and his buddy, Billy, were both survivors of the Woodsboror Killer, or ghostface. Umm. Their girlfriends, y/n and Sidney, their father lost it I guess on the one year anniversary of their mothers murder. He went on a killing spree killing nine people. Three adults, eight teenagers. Two of them were his own daughters. Billy and Stu barely made it out after Stu's family's home caught fire. I guess Stu thinks you're her, Addie. Mickey said you kind of look like y/n Prescott, Stu's girlfriend."

"And Stu hit Mickey because he wants to ask me out?" I asked. He shrugged, "yeah and because he said some other things," he said. He seemed uncomfortable. "Things like what?" I asked. He looked over at Sidney and she nodded. "He said he was going to fuck you like you've never been fucked before. Stone out of nowhere Stu was tackling him to the floor. He was hitting while telling him he better never touch you because you're his. I don't know what all happened, I walked in just in time to help Billy pull Stu off Mickey," he said. "Wow. That's something. Kind of sad though," I said. After they picked out a couple movies they left. And after I locked up I found myself heading towards Stu's dorm building.
