07 || Things Happen

I looked down at my phone to check the time and I saw it was 5:12 PM.

My family finished talking and we all made our ways upstairs to our bedrooms to start to get ready for dinner.

I closed my room door and turned on my speaker to put on some low music as I walked over to my closet to find something to wear.

I chose a midnight purple dress with black flats and black stud earrings.

I usually don't dress up like this but I guess once won't hurt me.

And it's with my family so my parents will be happy that I'm not wearing jeans and a black tshirt.

I put my change of clothes on my bed as I walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

Once I was done with my shower I got out and dried off my hair.

I realized my music stopped and me being me,I got paranoid and wrapped myself up in my robe before I walked out of my bathroom.

I saw no one was here but on top of my clothes that I put on my bed was a note and a beautiful red rose.

I looked across my room to be sure nobody else was in here as I walked over to my bed and picked up the rose.

I lifted it up to my nose to admire the smell and I felt like I was floating in a rose garden.

I don't know who put this here or if they knew roses are my favorite flowers but I felt happy.

I grabbed an empty vase from the bottom of my closet and filled it up with water from my bathroom sink to put the rose in.

I put the vase on my nightstand next to my bed and got dressed.

I walked over to my closet to pick out a black purse with rhinestones and my birthday date written on it that I got from my grandmother last year for my birthday.

When I was done I put on some light perfume and walked out of my room with my shoes in my left hand and my phone in my right.

I closed my bedroom door and looked at the time on my phone.

6:54.

Okay so we have time to get there. Hopefully everyone else is ready.

I walked down the hallway and down the stairs to see most of my family waiting in the living room already dressed.

The only person I didn't see was Chase,who I can hear is still in his room listening to his music.

We sat down and waited for him to come down and when he did we made our way out of the door and to the van.

We all got in and this time my mom got into the drivers seat.

We drove back the way we came and I noticed the same thing about the school that I did before and I decided to just not worry about it anymore.

Soon enough someone will do something to figure out what's going on.

We reached the Cafè and parked. We all got out and as we were walking towards the building I could see Aaron sitting outside like he said he would be.

My family greeted him and we all walked inside to order.

We always get the same things when we come so my dad ordered for us all as we sat down at a table.

As we were waiting I saw Aaron walk over to me and stand right next to me.

"Cassidy can I talk to you outside for a moment? Please?" he said.

I looked at my parents and they nodded.

I got up and followed him outside to the same table he was sitting at when we arrived and we both sat down.

He pulled out another file and I felt my stomach sink.

He looked at it before passing it across the table to me and signaling for me to open it.

I did so and I almost fell back in my chair.

There were pictures of the same girl from before..in the same room that I have in our new house.

I closed the file and put my hands on my hesd to process everything I just saw.

My head was spinning and I felt angry and confused.

I tried not to think about it too much but doing that only made me think a lot more.

I looked up and noticed Aaron had dropped a picture of the girl on the table and I picked it up before he could see that I saw it.

He was looking behind him inside of the Cafè and that gave me time to look at the picture without him taking it from me.

Now this picture wasn't her..it was me.

This is one of the pictures I posted on my Instagram page about 3 or 4 weeks ago.

This is the one that really upset me and I stood up as I walked over to Aaron and threw it down in front of him on the table.

"What is this? And do NOT tell me anything I don't want to hear right now because this picture is me! Why do you have pictures printed out of me?" I asked.

He looked shocked for a second then he picked up the picture and put it back into his bag next to his leg.

"I have to go" he said as he got up.

And I lost control of my anger.
