TW: tiny mention of abuse in paragraph 2

Tara is someone that I care for, so much, and that's why I have to protect her. Tara's dad left, and so did her sister. Don't get me started on her mother, Christina. I swear to fuck, if I could hurt that women I would, but sadly she's in new York, probably getting drunk and hooking up with some guy.

Tara has trust issues from all her family shit, rightfully so. But it pisses me off whenever her mom tries to be kind to her, only to beat her up at night, making her come and stay the night with me. Tara's mom would've been my main target, but I guess she felt something was off because, when I called her, someone else picked up the phone. Tara.

-

"Hello?" Tara said, obviously wondering who was calling.

"Hello." I said with the ghostface voice box

"Is Christina there?"

"No, she's not available. Can u leave a message?" Tara asked with a blank expression.

"What? Oh, uh, sorry. Christina said she would call me today. Is she out?" I asked as I freaked out

"Yes, she just left and won't be back for a couple of days. Now, can I take a message?" Tara asked again, slightly impatient.

Shit, shit, shit. Christina left already.

"Sorry, one second." I said through the phone as I put her on hold and called richi.

"Fuck answer, shit head." I murmered impatiently.

"Amber? That was quick." Richi answered.

"No, I didn't do it, dumbass." I said, my grip on the phone tightening.

"Then what's up?" Richi questioned.

"Christina left already." I say coldly, in my defeat, but didn't expect what he would request next.

"Okay, go for Tara." He said as if it was obvious.

I froze. "Are you.. serious?" I replied, still shocked at his request.

"Uhm, yeah. We need Sam to have a reason to go over there. Fuck! I mean, there's more of a chance she goes if Tara gets hurt." He chuckles.

"No. I can't hurt her." I sigh.

"Amber, if you don't, I will." Richie replied in a stone cold expression.

And the worst part was, I knew he was serious.

I hung up the phone with him and continued the one with Tara, hearing her texting.

"Hey, uh, sorry, I'm her friend from group, ah shit." I said, playing along.

"From her shit?" Tara giggled

I'm sorry, Tara

-

But that was just the start of it, before dewey, of course. He was just nieve enough to join Sam on her pathetic little investigation. He basically asked for it. It's too easy.

-

Anyways, back to the present.

"Hey Tara, what's up?" I say as I answer the phone.

"Hey, Amber..." Tara mumbles

"What's wrong?" I ask, concerned.

"Sam's making me move to.. medisto." Tara mumbles. You could hear the sadness in her voice.

"What?" I asked, shocked.

"Yeah.. we're moving in a week." Tara said sadly.

Perfect, just enough time for my plan. The anniversary is in 3 days, giving me just enough time to get rid of everyone I need, and maybe even a few extras...
