Treasure Hunt

1. To new friendships

"Tea please come with me." Oren whined as he grabbed on my hand. "No, it seems...catchy." I say as I wiggled my hand from his grasp. "How the heck did she even find you? And also you don't know that woman. At. All. May I remind you." I roll my eyes. "Others would be angry if I would ask them, come on we don't even have to wait in line for them. At all." I sighed, he was right I'm the one who is the 'not so angry' friend. "Fine but I will kill you if anything happens." I said as he happily walks out of the house and I follow him.

We got into a car that was parked in front of our house. A woman sat in a back already. She introduced her self as Billie and let me tell you, she was this gorgeous blonde dressed in black T-shirt and white pants with white coat over it.  She could be around 40 or so. In front in the drives seat sat a red haired woman and a man beside her. We got to a loading dock with bunch of bins. They opened one and it was full of boxes with shoes. "You can pick what ever you want, all of it even." Billie says with a smile. Oren's eyes lit up and I smiled. "I'll stay outside, I'm not that much of shoes maniac, thanks tho."

The whole time I was standing outside of the bin with a redhead that was Billies bodyguard I guess. We had a small talk were I found out her name was Kacey then we asked each other random questions. Turns out we have a lot in common. I wanted to point it out but than I hear "Your friends lives ... for the relic." I turn around looking at the blonde woman who was on the phone probably with Jess. I looked at Oren frightened. I'll happily kill him now. "Oren!" I say with wide eyes. "I'm sorry okay? I didn't know."

When Jess a agreed to give her the relic I was relieved. We got into the car again as we drove to the meeting spot. I was looking outside through the window but I could feel someone's eyes at me. I turn my head and notice Billie looking at me. I looked at her for a few seconds before going back to watching the outside. I couldn't stand having eye contact with her. She was intimidating, but probably the other or the actual reason would be that she's really and I mean really good looking.

We arrived to some museum gift shop. "You stay here. They'll bring you in when it's time." Billie said as she went inside. We didn't wait long before Kacey and that guy brought us inside too. "Oren thank god." I heard Jess say. I could see Billie turning to us to look at me but before she managed to look me in the eyes I turned my head away. After a while I turned back watching Jess giving Billie the relic. Then she motion us to go to our friends. When I was passing her she grabbed me by my wrist. "They're not really good friends now are they?" She whispered to me. I looked up at her. I tried to look like I don't know what she's talking about but I bet that my eyes were telling a whole different story. "I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about." I got out of Billie's grasp and went to them but they were talking to Oren already. I turned around to look at Billie as she was leaving the Antenna starts beeping. It ended up with guard coming to her and wanting to search her purse which she didn't have. He apologised and wanted to leave but Jess quickly said: "She kidnapped our friends."

Billie turned around once again. Jess looked at me hoping I will say something. I looked at Billie. I could see her shaking her head, showing I should say no. I looked at Jess and than I looked at the guard. "Eh n-no, that hat to be misunderstanding nothing like that happen." I said looking over his shoulder at Billie. She was smiling as she went away. We than all went to Jess apartment.

"Why didn't you say anything!" Jess yelled at me. "I don't know, I wasn't even the reason for this to happen! You should ask Oren he's the one that brought me with him!" I explained angrily. "Don't bring Oren into this." I looked at her with wide eyes. "Don't bring O- are listening to yourself Jess?! I wouldn't be there if it weren't for him!" Everyone else was just watching the scene play out. Nobody stopped us, nobody said anything until I've decided that I'm done. "You know what Jess? I'm done, with all of you. Just done. Oren? I'll move out as soon as possible. I can't do this anymore, always be the last choice even in friend group." I said as I quickly got out of the apartment and walk down the street. I didn't wanted to cry I really didn't, but as soon as I stepped into the streets I couldn't stop it anymore. Tears silently rolled down as I walked around. I had to go to Orens eventually and get the stuff but I couldn't, not now. It was getting quite late and so I decided to go to a bar I knew was close.

I ordered a drink and sat in one of the booths. As I sat there starring at the drink I wanted to cry again. I could feel a tear rolling down but I won't let go, not here at least. I should have expected this anyway, I was always the outsider even in a friend group. "What's a pretty girl like you doing here alone with her emotions." I know I shouldn't know that voice, but really I couldn't get it of my mind. I looked up to meet the coffee eyes of the woman who kidnapped me. "Do you want to kidnap me again or what?" I said quite harshly. "No not at all, I'm sorry you weren't really part of the plan actually." She said as she sat on the other side of the booth. It shouldn't have hurt. But it did. ,You weren't really part of the plan' of course I wasn't. I never am. "So what's your point? To laugh at me? That my friends are fake or they don't care about me?" I said as I looked at her. She had smirk playing on her face. "I came to give you a deal perhaps." She shrugged. "Join me, I know you talked with Kacey and she likes you, or she doesn't mind you at least and that's something. I know you're part of the brains in your friend group, you could get revenge on them by joining and helping me." I sat there quietly. Should I do it? What I mean what I have to lose anyways. "Fine, I'll do it, I'll show them they should have care about me." I said and she smiled. "Great to hear that darling." She brought her glass to mine and clinked them. "To new friendships." I raised my brow. "Friendships? Well I guess we see where it ends." I said as I drink a little of it with a small smile playing on my lips.
