The Devil on Her Shoulder (gxg)

Part 30- Revenge

TW: Once again, this chapter is very intense!

I was now face to face with my best friends killer.

Who said I was next.

Candace stood next to Nicki, facing me as I sat on the bed.

"Why did you do it?"

That was all I could ask Candace.

Just why?

Candace, who looked like a damn beauty queen a light pink sundress dress, said, "Mila was not a good person, Cassidy. You were so blind to it. You followed her around like a little puppy dog, who thought she could do no wrong. Everyone was blind to her ways! But I wasn't. She constantly tried to make me look like I was stupid. But guess who had the last laugh?"

There was something that was diabolical to the way that Candace was talking.

She's insane. Absolutely fucking insane.

Candace looked at Nicki, who laughed.

"Nic...why the fuck are you laughing?" I asked her.

"I would watch the way you speak to her." Candace said to me, "You're already next for me to kill. But I could make it a lot more painful."

"And how exactly do you plan on killing me?" I asked Candace. I was numb at this point.

Candace then reached over and opened up the closet door. Nicki moved to the side, and she grabbed a gun out of the closet.

I found my heart pound.

No.

"We'll just make it looked like you did it yourself." Candace said, "Poor Cassidy couldn't handle the death of her best friend."

No. No. No. My family can't think I did that to myself. My friends. Daisy. Oh god...Daisy can't think I did that.

"Candace...you cannot be this evil." I said, trying to be as calm as I possibly could.

"Evil? I did everyone a favor by offing Mila. I've been much happier without her around. Nicki, haven't you?" Candace turned to Nicki.

"I have been. Mila was a bitch. She deserved it." Nicki said, "Cassidy, we did you a favor."

A favor? You killed my best friend.

I shook my head. I needed to buy time. Figure out how to get out of this fucking mess.

Figure out how to get out alive.

"How?" I asked, "How did you even do this? Mila was smart. If you tried to trick her, she must've known something was up."

"Mila was smart, sure. But she wasn't smarter than me." Candace said, "She constantly liked to think she was smarter than me. But anyway- Cassidy- you were my ammo."

"What are you talking about?" I responded, trying to think of ways I could get up and grab the gun.

"Before I explain- I see you eyeing the gun in my hand. If you even dare to get up, I will shoot you. Immediately." Candace narrowed her eyes at me.

"I-I'll stay still." I said, my mouth going dry.

"Good." Candace gave me a maniacal smile, "Anyway- Nicki told Mila that you were crying in the kitchen. That you were upset about your ex. Mila immediately came down to comfort you. Or so she thought it was you. That's when I did it. Swung the baseball bat- provided by Nicki- and I knew the second she dropped to the floor- she was gone."

I felt my heart sink.

I'm so sorry, Mila. I'm so sorry you died thinking you were going to go comfort me.
