The Awkward Adventures #2: The Sounds Of The Necklace

Chapter 2: The Locket

Zoë slowly opened her eyes. She groggily sat up and looked around. Dixie and Bree were on the opposite sides of the bed. Dixie was fast asleep, holding onto the mattress like a plushie. Bree was watching the movie with intent while a bowl with barely any popcorn kernels was right next to her side of the mattress.
Zoë looked over to Seth. He was playing games on his phone, not caring for even a second about the movie. Where's Anabelle at? Zoë thought.
"Hey where's Anabelle?" Zoë asked Seth,
"Well after the first movie ended she used the bathroom then left, " Seth answered as he scrolled through his phone.
That's.. strange. Zoë thought. Zoë tried to grab the necklace that was on her neck but.. it was gone. Zoë looked down at her neck. The locket's gone. A wave of dread hit Zoë as she was started to feel woozy. Zoë got up from the couch. She didn't even realize that she was sweating.
The necklace wasn't on the couch. Bree and Seth glanced at each other with confusion then looked at Zoë.
"What are you looking for?" Bree asked Zoë,
Zoë fumbled her fingers as she said, " Uhm, the necklace. It's gone, "
Bree's face turned a little lighter. She didn't knew why it was important towards Zoë but she still cared for it. Seth looked at Zoë in anger.
"Why in the LITERAL HELL would you bring that stupid necklace here?! Especially around a stranger!" Seth yelled,
" ITS UNSAFE IN MY ROOM SETH. IT SAVED OUR LIVES, ITS DANGEROUS ALONE! " Zoë barked back,
" Oh my god, YOU'RE ADDICTED ZOË!"
"I AM NO-"
Zoë looked away from Seth for a moment. Next to the sleepy Dixie was Molly. Molly was giggling like she knew this would happen. Zoë couldn't hear Molly giggling but she knew by Molly's posture and face. Molly stopped giggling and lightly smiled to Zoë. Zoë saw Molly was about to open her mouth, maybe to talk?
Bree grabbed Zoe's shoulders and started shaking her. "Not this again. SNAP OUT OF IT!!" Bree screamed. Zoë looked back at Bree and Seth. Seth looked at Zoë with concern.
"We don't need to worry about you right now. If you really want, we can find that necklace," Seth sighed, he seemed mad,
"You say that like I'M THE PROBLEM!" Zoë screamed,
"WELL YOU'RE ACTUALLY ACTING LIKE ONE!!" Seth fought back,
They went back and forth like a game of catch. Bree got tired of the arguing so she grabbed Dixie and walked into her room.
Bree's room was really cozy as her old house. It was still Harry Potter themed with a drawn fireplace next to the posters of Percy Jackson and One Direction. There was bunk bed on the side of the room. Zoë and Bree used to share the bunk bed until Zoë got her own room.
Bree sighed and plopped Dixie onto the bed. Bree sat near the edge of the bottom bed next to Dixie's legs. "Why do friends argue?" Bree asked, knowing she won't get an answer. "It's strange. Why do we hate remembering these moments then we get super sad when we forget them? It's weird being a person. You're just stuck hating yourself or something else. ". She got up from the bed and laid on the floor. She extended her limbs so she was basically the shape of a star. As she laid there all of her bad moments came back to her like credits rolling down the television. "Do you think they're scared of me? I know you and Cruz aren't but why does everyone have fear in their eyes now in days when people look at me? I didn't do anything wrong. I feel like I'm not me. I look like me, I act like me but it feels like.. I'm not me, "
As Bree vented that her ears rang like a dong being rung. She sat up with some of her shirt still on the floor. She sighed, not again.. this happens everyday, She rolled her eyes, a little annoyed. Dixie mumbled and moved around seeming annoyed as well. "You hear that too?" Bree answered with confusion in her voice. She stood up and looked at Dixie then the door. I should wake her up first.., Bree thought. Bree shoke Dixie a bit. Still asleep. Bree grabbed Dixie and hung her on Bree's shoulders.
She walked into the main room. Seth and Zoë finally stopped arguing and started searching for the necklace. "Uhm hey!" Bree said with a tone of nervousness. Seth and Zoë stopped in unison and looked at Bree.
"Uhm I heard a ringing and I wanna make sure I'm not going crazy, " Bree answered,
" First, we're already crazy. Second, I'm gonna need Dixie to wake up, " Zoë said,
" I WANNA DO IT! " Seth screamed,
Seth wanted revenge from when Dixie slapped him. He grabbed Dixie off of Bree and started shaking her. Dixie grumble and didn't wake up so Seth slapped her. "AH!" Dixie screamed in shock. Seth let go almost making Dixie fall. Dixie stopped her also from falling and started to process what was happening.
"Quick! Did Anabelle steal the necklace?" Seth asked, as Dixie looked at Seth, blood started dripping down her face onto her green sweater,
" Who's Anabelle? "
