It Started With Hello

Chap. 106

Was the room spinning or was she just turning around in circles, she couldn't tell. One thing she was sure of she had somehow lost her friends in the last half hour. After drinking the alcohol when she first arrived she found herself having another and another back to back. It blurred her mind of all the worries she had earlier in the day. She wasn't worried about the stalker, her parents, how late it was getting or the knife she found outside her house. Her head was pounding from the beat of the music and the alcohol as she stumbled through the crowd of people. You may be wondering how she lost her friends after they promised to look after her? Niki went off to enjoy the party with a different random guy she had met after a few drinks Claire was on the dance floor with one of the guys they all met when they first arrived. Whitney was keeping track of her until she has to go to the bathroom she told Emma to wait outside the door for her but Emma wondered off after waiting outside the door about three minutes. She had went to go find another can of beer that last drink she had seemed stronger then the others and now she got completely lost in the crowd she had no clue were in the house she was. She stops walking a moment in the crowd looking around trying to get her baring on were she was "Hello again beautiful how about a dance?" she turns around quickly almost falls over. He puts a hand on her arm to keep her steady she looks up at the blonde guy she met early. She shakes her head taking a big step away "My boyfriend wouldn't like that" she continues to back away but he followed her movements "I don't see him around" she plays with her necklace nervously. Her back suddenly hits the wall and he boxes her in with his arms on either side of her head "What he doesn't know won't hurt him" he runs his finger tips down her arm. Her breath picks up she didn't know what know what to do but she knew she didn't want to dance with him. Her vision may be blurry and she may be uneasy on her feet but she wouldn't hurt Blake by dancing with this random guy. She pushed his arm out of the way holding a hand against the wall suddenly feeling sick "No leave me alone" she was suddenly questioning was she just drunk or was it something else. She had never been drunk before her body was suddenly feeling heavy as if it was about to give up on her. The guy watched her seeming concerned she walked along the wall struggling to keep her own body up "Hey are you ok?" he reaches for her she rushed to push his hand away standing almost fully. She didn't want his help she didn't trust him she didn't even know him. What if this was a trap and he had put something in her drink? With that thought she glared at him "Get away from me!" she yelled only to be muffled by the loud music she stumbled to get away from him walking into a random direction away from the guy. He followed behind her a few minutes calling after her "Wait stop I think you need help let me help you" that makes her ever more anxious picking up her pace pushing people out the way putting more distance between them she sees a sliding glass door to the backyard. She runs through closing it behind her locking it she leans against the wall beside the door watching his shadow on the grass walking past the door. Letting out a sigh of relief she looks around the back yard there was know one else back there but her. She looked around at the lawn furniture and a partially closed in the ground pool she pushes herself off the wall stumbling across the grass. Reaching inside her bra finally remembered she had her phone with her she needed call for help her body was feeling wearker and weaker by the second. Suddenly falling weakly to her knees onto the plush earth a moment hair falling around her face "What..what is happening?" she whispered holding her shaking hands in front of her face. Finally her body decides enough is enough and falls completely to the ground her phone falling to the ground out of her hand cheek laying against the grass. Her body was frozen in place she couldn't move a inch. Adrenaline was pumping through her system the sound of ber loud heart filled her ears she hears a creaking sound like the back yard gate being pushing open or maybe the door she exited from. A pair a black shoes gingerly walk there way across the grass in her direction. Her eyes could barley focus as the person walks closer and closer. She couldn't tell who the person was from here or even if it was a man or a woman. She wondered if this was her stalker or if it was the guy inside the party some how figured out how to unlock the door it was terrifying. Her phone suddenly vibrates on the grass a few niches from her face. From where she was laying she saw it was message from Blake.

Blake- Hope your having fun with the girls I'll sneak out to see you night around 11 so keep your window unlocked for me

A tear rolls down her cheek as the person slams their foot repeatedly and violently against the phone crushing it. Emma was screaming in her head hoping someone would come and save. Wishing Blake could read her mind like he usually does and come save her. The person walks out of her line of sight grabbing her legs pulling her body across the grass. Her dress rides up and the soft grass rubs against her cheek as the culprit pulls her over to the edge of the pool Emma's eyes meet the glass back door to meet Niki's widened eyes. Niki's yelling through the door trying to turn the handle eyes looking panicked Claire was crying behind her hands over her mouth Whitney pounding her fists against the door yelling for the person to let Emma go. They where trying to get to her but Emma feared it was to late was it really the end for her. The person holding her legs must have noticed them at the door because they laugh to her ears is sounded kinda familiar "Say goodbye Emma...oh right I forgot your drugged my bad" the voice said before laughing it was a female voice that sounded familiar but Emma couldn't place it. The person used their foot to push Emma's body into the pool with a splash her body sinks heavy like a rock deep into the pool. Emma struggled to breathe lungs burning sound of water muffled her hearing. Above her she saw the pull cover beginning to slide over the pool trapping her underneath in darkness. She held her breath but her lungs where on fire begging for air if she could move she would have swam to the top but with the drugs in her system she was completely immovable. Unable to hold it any longer she takes a breath water immediately fills her lungs making a choke her mind was racing. Was this really the end the burning in her chest was saying yes it was.

Mia note- Is this really the end...
