Love struck betrayal •| Ethan Landry |•

8- The world's caving in

I look around and see a stage behind a curtain. I walk up the stairs and behind the curtain. I see a half circle kinda thing lined with mannequins with robes on

I see on in a case and I look at the name at the bottom, Billy Loomis, I read and if this was all about the past Ghostfaces then on one of the sides of Billy had to be.. my dad

I look to one side and read the name, Nancy Loomis, I look to the other side and see his name

Stu fucking Macher. My father. A murderer.

I step towards it and grab the cloth, my thumb rubbing the material I bite my inner cheek

"Ella?" I hear making me swing around and seeing Tara "you good?" She asks

I turn around and look at the stand next to the robe that held a knife covered in dry blood "yea, I'm good." I say still looking at the knife, I hear a couple steps behind me

I then hear more walking away

"Ella," Ethan says while putting one hand on my shoulder and another on my side "talk to me."

"He was a murderer." I turn around frustrated "A worthless piece of shit who killed people for no reason! He didn't even have a motive" I throw my hands up

"What?" Ethan asks slightly popping the t

"Nevermind." I say rolling my eyes, I walk past him but then come to a stop. I see Tara looking at a robe, I look at the name, Amber Freeman , I walk down the stairs and my shoulder hits someone's

"Whoa" they say stumbling back, I walk away and into a different room. I dig through my purse and grab my pill bottle and a small water bottle.

I open the bottle and shake out a pill and slip it into my mouth. I walk back out and see Mindy and the girl I hit earlier sitting on the stage and Ethan still looking at my fathers robe

I walk up to him and stand beside him

"I'm sorry." I manage to get out. Before he responded I overheard Mindy and the girl's conversation

"The T.V. that killed Stu Macher." The blonde woman says

"If you believe he's dead." Mindy says. I turn and look over to them and Ethan does the same. The girl looks at her before talking

"I hear you're a horror fan."

"It's been said." Mindy says proudly, I grab Ethan's hand and take him into a small closet I saw

"What are you doing?" He asks looking around the small space

"Shut up." I pull him in and kiss him, I push him back into the wall and deepen the kiss

He separated our lips and tilts his head up to breathe, I kiss his neck but then he gently pushes me back

"Ella what are you doing?" He asks, looking confused

"I can't kiss my boyfriend." I ask now sharing the same look

"No. Yes! Yes, you can! But ever since we got here you've been off." He puts his hands on both sides of my face

Of course he was right, I am acting weird.

"I know I just-" I was cut off

"Ethan! Ella! We have a plan! Someone shouts

"By the way who's the blonde one? I ask

"Her names Kirby, she's apparently a survivor of ghostface." Ethan looks down, upset he didn't get and answer. We walk out and they tell us the plan.

Me, Ethan, Chad, Mindy, and Kirby were in a van waiting when Ethan nudged my leg with his own

"You want one?" He asks while putting the bag of chips in his hand in front of me, I take one and smile while eating it.

I put my phone in my pocket and listened to Mindy test Kirby

"And you think they're safe out there because it's broad daylight and a public place?" She asks

"Look I am here, ok? And so is Bailey." Kirby says obviously over it

"This is exactly how our uncle Randy died," Mindy states, Kirby looks at Mindy "broad daylight, public place, yanked into a van, stab stab stab no more randy."

I look at Chad and he looks shocked, I was about to laugh when Ethan offered Chad a chip making me dye of laughter.

"Are you laughing at uncle randy?" Mindy turns to me

"First of all, he's not my uncle. Second, no I was laughing at Chad's face." I say in between giggles

The door slides open and I see Detective Bailey

"Sam and Tara just took off with my car."

"What!" Mindy says

"Why?" Chad asks

"No time to explain but Gale was attacked we need to meet them at the apartment ." He climbs in

The Apartment lobby

I sit on a chair next to Ethan who's standing, he gives me a quick smile then the cute guy Sam's been seeing walking in

"Hey hey I got here as fast as I could." He says breathing heavy

"Did you?" Tara asks sharply

"I'm scared you guys." Mindy says shacking her head " I really don't want to get hurt again."

"Neither do I." Chad's voice breaks

"I don't want you getting hurt again either." Mindy says looking at her brother. He leans back and rests his head on her shoulder

"I know, I know." He reassures her. Tara lays her head down in mindys other shoulder "so what do we do now." Chad asks the obvious question no one wanted to

I look up at Ethan as he takes a deep breath

"Maybe he gets to win this time." Sam says looking at the floor "he wants to punish me." Sam stands up "me. So maybe I let him, I'll just give myself up. If this is what I have to do to keep you safe, it's worth it."

"No. We're not doing that Sam." Tara says standing up "you went back to woodsboro to protest me. Every single day you make the decision to protest me. None of us would even be alive if it weren't for you. You have to let us protect you. They stand up and start talking about the core 4

"Core what?" Danny asks

"It's a us thing." Chad's response makes Danny laugh

"He's gonna keep coming after us." Sam says

"Isn't there somewhere like safe we could just hole up in?" Ethan asks

"He's just gonna keep finding us." Tara say

"Great." Ethan mumbles sarcastically

"We could use that though." Tara says

"My sister would love this!" I laugh

"Seriously Ella? You actually think your sister's alive? She's been gone for years, she's dead. Gone!" Mindy looks at me

"What.." I say. I look at Tara and she's looking at me, sympathy laces her face like a blanket "your unbelievable." I shake my head repeatedly and take a step back as a tear falls down my cheek

The train station

We walk down the steps and Ethan and Tara start bickering a group of people cut Ethan, and Mindy off while we all gets into the train. The door shuts and I hit the door looking at the two left behind

"Where's Mindy." Sam asks. I zone out, still looking out the window

Tara's POV

I notice Ella zone out, she was uncomfortable and she has every right to be. I told Mindy about her sister the night Ella told me about her because it wouldn't leave my head. I still think Amber could be her sister I mean it's a bit of a stretch and I could just be going crazy, If I'm right it would be worth it

"Hey, you ok?" Chad asks me

"I don't know," I keep my eyes on Ella
