CHAPTER 28
I was sitting in my room at Mike's house. I hadn't been attacked in a few days so I was most likely safe. Tyler, Noel, Ash and I were meeting up at Tyler's soon. I had written a new song and we had uploaded it. We had an interview today and Mike had agreed to be the interviewer. It was just a joke thing because today we were going to reveal that we had no record deal. Our fifteen minutes of fame had come and gone very quickly.
"Isabella, we're going now." Mike told me, standing at my door. "Please don't make me wait until christmas. Although it's not too far away."
"Mike, christmas is this month. It's not far away." I told him, grabbing my book. "Let's go."
We went down to Mike's car and he drove to Tyler's house. We got out and walked in. Tyler and Will were having some sort of discussion. I tried to leave until Noel and Ash stopped me. I heard Will make an annoyed grunt and I became curious.
"What's going on?" Mike asked, a little confused.
"Sarah's been let out and according to Tyler here, she's a threat to Isabella and so am I." Will told Mike, angrily.
"You could be." Noel pointed out. "Or maybe, you're the key to keeping her safe."
"If Sarah truly loves you and it's her, she won't want to hurt you and that'll keep Isabella safe." Ash added.
I had become really annoyed with everyone trying to protect me. I'm sixteen, nearly seventeen. I'm pretty sure I can take care of myself.
"If it's Sarah, then let her get me." I said. "You should've figured out by now that I can protect myself. Give me a gun and I'm fine. If they want me, they can have me. It's the only way to stop this. I'm okay, really."
"It is a good idea." Everyone but Will agreed.
"No. I refuse to let you get hurt." Will told me. "You can't do this."
"YOU CAN'T CONTROL ME! I'VE HAD ENOUGH!" I shouted as loud as possible. Everyone stared at me. "You claim you're with someone else, but then you kiss me, then you remind me you're with someone else! Stop playing with my f***ing emotions!"
Everyone watched me storm outside. I slammed the door and sat on the front step. I put my head in my hands and started to think about life. What would I do about Will? What would happen if whoever wants to hurt me, got me? Would I be able to stay here in America and fulfill my dream? Would the band stay together? There was too many questions at once.
Will came out and Sarah pulled up. Great! More drama to come! I walked back inside and into the garage/band room. I sat behind my grand piano and put my head on it. It rung for about a minute before finally stopping.
"So Isabella, did you enjoy putting me in jail for a few days?" Sarah asked me, rudely, with a hint of bitterness.
"Well you are at the top of the list of people that would have me killed, but no I didn't." I told her, honestly. "Prison really changed you."
"Oh shut up!" Sarah spat. "You're really getting on my nerves. I'll be here more often because Will and I are together."
I gave Sarah the finger and left the room. I went to the kitchen and pulled out a beer. Will must've bought it or Sarah. Tyler, Noel and Ash were sitting on the couch and Mike had gone home. I knew Mike wasn't a fan of cat fights.
"You are so rude. First you put me in jail, then you have a bad attitude, then you gave me the finger and now you're stealing my beer." Sarah told me.
"Look who's talking." I said simply. "Maybe you should ask your 'boyfriend' how he feels about me. I'm sure that would increase the attacks to hourly."
