Cadys POV:

I felt really bad after what happened with Regina, that I didn't even go home, I went to Y/ns house, and cried myself to sleep, she tried to calm me down but I felt so miserable.

*the next day*

I wake up feeling like I'm sick, great I was a bitch to Regina, and now I'm sick.

Just great!

Sarcasm if you couldn't tell.

What I mean by sick, is I have a fever, welp, at least I don't have to deal with the wrath of Regina. Or Y/n, I mean I told her, and she said she knows that I did something wrong, but she also knows that I didn't want to lose my only two friends I made first, ugh this is so complicated...

Welp, I think I'm just going to fall back asleep...

-Four Hours Later-

Someone just rang the doorbell... ugh, my head...

i go downstairs to answer the door...











..... Its Gretchen, at first, I'm all excited to see one of my best friends before she starts blowing up on me.

It's then I remember what happened yesterday, everything that happened.

"Gretchen slow down and breathe." I tell her since I couldn't understand a word she was saying

"What the fuck did you do to Regina, she's been crying uncontrollably, she didn't arrive at school today, I'm worried fucking sick." Gretchen says trying to calm down

"She didn't what?" My eyes widen

"She didn't come to school today." Gretchen says calmer

"And what are we doing still here then? Let's go!" I say pushing Gretchen aside, and dragging Gretchen to her own car

We knock on her door. No response. We ring the doorbell. No response

"Her mom should be home right now, right Gretchen?" I ask worriedly

"Yeah normally Mrs. George is home." Gretchen having the same worried look I do

"I have a key. Let's go in, don't ask." I pull out a house key Regina gave me in case of emergencies, we go in, all the lights are all off, it feels like something you'd see in a horror movie

There's a note on the table 'going out of town, idk who will see this, but the George's are going out of town.-Regina' Gretchen reads it out loud

"She doesn't normally leave like this." Gretchen says

"Maybe she just needed a trip, she's had a week." I say, Gretchen nods agreeing

"Yeah you could be right, but this doesn't feel right to me." Gretchen says, I nod my head agreeing

"Yeah true, maybe we should explore a bit?" I suggest, Gretchen nods, turning back on our flashlights we explore a bit more to find nothing.

"I'll text Y/n." I say, opening my phone and clicking my pinned contact messages

Twinses:
Me: hey, have you heard from Regina today?
Read at 3:45
Twinses: yeah she told me she was going on a trip.
Me: ahhh okay, nvm then
Delivered at 3:50

"Regina told Y/n." I say powering off my phone and putting it away

"Oh okay, wanna go pick up Karen and maybe have a sleepover? I'm sorry for freaking out on you." Gretchen offers and apologizes

"Of course! And it's fine, I deserved it." I smile, she smiles back, she calls Karen, than we drive to pick her up go back to my house and spend the rest of the day doing sleepover stuff like painting each others nails and doing each others makeup

When Gretchen and Karen are both asleep, I'm still awake tossing and turning, I have a bad feeling in my stomach.

I can't sleep, I'll just go get water. So I go down stairs take a cup out of the cupboard but as I shut the cupboard door I swear I saw Regina looking really scary and like dead outside the kitchen window, I scream and drop the glass

Everyone rushed down the stairs to see if I was okay

I heard a bunch of 'Are you alright?' 'What happened?' 'Why'd you drop the glass' but I responded with "Ah just tired, I thought I saw someone." I lie, Gretchen looks at me like she knows I'm lying

My mom goes back up stairs, but Gretchen and Karen stay, I gulped knowing they knew I was lying

"What's the truth?" Gretchen asked crossing her arms

"I saw Regina looking really weird- like dead like. It was weird." I say trying to calm down

"That's not a good sign." Karen says playing with her hair, me and Gretchen were shocked, Karen's karen you know, you wouldn't expect her to pay attention

"Yeah. It's not." I say biting my lip

"We can only hope she's alright. Now get your water and we'll stay until you're done with getting it." Gretchen says making sure I don't break another glass and that im safe

"Thanks Gretch." I get my water and we head upstairs, we'll worry about the broken cup tomorrow

I try to sleep again, tossing and turning again

Maybe I'm hungry, I'll just go to the bathroom.

I go to the bathroom and pull down my pants sitting on the toilet trying to remind myself Regina's okay, nothing wrong, I shut my eyes not wanting to look at the window. After I'm done using the bathroom and I wash my hands I decide to be brave, I look out the window, I let out a big breath I was holding in "see nothings there, it's alright Cady." I say to myself

As I turn to dry my hands I see Regina in the doorway, I slip and fall, when I blink again she's not there. God what's going on with me.

I get up, and groan my back hurts from that fall, I rub my back and stretch, I dry my hands off like I tried to before, I head back to my room, and get in bed trying to fall asleep, I did fall asleep but only for so long, I woke up an hour later to see something in my window, but when I rubbed my eyes nothing was there.

Then I went back to sleep, and didn't wake up again, no more creepy Regina sighting, we're good, or are we?
