XXXIV. Revelations

WE TRIED CONTACTING her but it was no use. Its been two days since we last saw her and she left us feeling curious and mostly concerned but I don't want to think too hard about it because it might end up being true.

It was exactly 2:45 in the afternoon and I was lying down in my bed, laptop on the side, on twitter. I was on the verge of getting impatient with Shey because this is how I become when I care too much. Like when Grey almost dated this jerk of a guy in high school because of his cheesy nicknames of her. She didn't see it coming, but I did. And I'm glad I exposed the guy. He could have had the chance to hurt my sister by having sex with her and exposing her whole existence by recording it on his camera. It was all about to happen if Cameron didn't show up and told me his plan. That was why I gave a bit of my trust to Cam after that.

"what do we have here," I muttered to myself as I saw a tweet from the gorgeous Ella. Wow! I just had to see this, I sarcastically thought.

And it read:

@Ellamonet

I just want to say sorry to Ashton and Gail !! You guys never deserved anything like this. I'm sorry .

Oh hell no! Gail must know about this.

"So she lied at my face?" She asked, grabbing another bite of my banana. Like who the hell steals a bite from a person eating a banana? Whatevs.

"Basically," I said. "but why? It doesn't make sense. She lies to you then apologizes." I finally asked.

She sighed and said, "I dunno."

The five of us, still waiting for Shey, are here in the living room, all thinking about that damn tweet. Now we had two problems that needs to be solved asap. (1): The Lover missing in action and (2): what this freaking tweet really meant. I mean I was all about investigating stuff that really mattered. And these two are in my priorities right now.

Sophia and Grey offered to go a bit grocery shopping but we said no because we were only going to be here until tomorrow night.

Out of a sudden, there was a knock on the door as I immediately ran to it. My heart was racing, and I had a small feeling in my gut that it was her.

I opened the door slowly, revealing the familiar glow in her hair falling down, with her favorite short on, and the puppy eyes were present.

I gestured her to come in without saying a word to her. I closed the door when she came in, and we were standing right there looking at each other. "I'm sorry for being MIA," those were the first words that came out of her mouth, making me laugh a bit.

"I swear if you didn't say that, I would've punched you by now," I teased as we end up hugging it out. We walked to the living room and a group hug just happened.

So now we were still at the living room, not knowing what to do next until Grey spoke up first. "What happened to you? We were worried," which was all so true, we were definitely worried.

She ran a hand through her hair and sighed, and said, "I have something to tell you girls," She muttered.

"Hmm," I hummed, signaling her that we were listening.

She breathed deeply again and finally said, "Okay, here it goes."

Shey's POV

"Okay, here it goes." I told them as I ran a hand through my hair again, not even thinking twice about this. I trust them, I don't know why but I just do. It felt like we all knew each other for so long now.

You know that moment when you meet new people and you just feel comfortable with them and trust them like your own family? That's how I felt with them. I hope they felt the same as well.

"I knew the guys before," I spoke up. "Especially luke. Luke Robert Hemmings." they only nodded and smiled but I don't think they will after I tell them the whole story.

"Meet and greet, huh?" Jas asked as I shook my head.

"Concert?" they continue to ask and I keep on shaking my head no.

"How?" Sky asked as I breathed again. This was it. You can do this, Shey.

"We were i-in..school together." they gasped. God this was all happening too fast. I can't believe this. Go on, talk!— I thought to myself.

"uhm, it was before prom and everyone had a date. I've always liked him." I spoke up, fiddling with my fingers in fear of how they might react.

"Who's the guy?"

I thought for a moment about this and I was sure to tell them the truth. Okay. Here it goes.

"Luke," and they all gasped again. "I wanted to be his prom date, I've always dreamt of dancing with him at the middle of the ballroom floor like I was his princess and he was my prince. But–"

"A-are you Sheyanne?" stuttered Gail.

"Y-yeah," not even looking at them.

"You were the one who dumped him?! Why? He was crazy about you-"

"I know, I know. Please let me explain first-"

"okay, explain."

And so I explained. "A fucking restraining order!?" Sky practically shouted.

"yeah, she's rich and all so yeah."

"But luke never liked her?"

"He never did, and I'm still guilty because I never talked or even see him after graduation. I just see him on tv now and I feel more guilty when I see and hear his wonderful voice, that's why I took a break with my life. I,uh, went here and met you girls. And its been an amazing journey for me meeting you guys. I'm really thankful for having you as a huge company for me this week, I hope you guys could forgive me," I said as it turned out as a question.

"Of course, Shey. It was amazing meeting you too." Sky said as I smiled.
