Not Just Friends

Playing Me

Zendaya POV

I peeked out the door and was surprised to what was out there.

"you guys we're in a huge parking garage" I said.

There were tons of cars parked. Every parking spot taken. Where can we be that is so packed.

"come on" I said.

I slowly stepped out of the van and placed my broken heel on the ground. I didn't see anyone yet. I didn't want to make any noise just in case someone was in front of the van.

I held open the door for the girls to come out. They all stepped out and looked around.

"where are we?" Zink asked.

"I feel like we're in some condo parking garage" Deja said.

"why would we be here?" Tyla said.

"I don't know and I don't want to find out why, but we have to be quiet" I said.

The girls nodded their head.

"look there's a exit sign over there, let's hurry before anyone spots us" Tyla said.

We all turned where Tyla was pointing. There was a big sign that said "exit" in big red letters.

"Okay lets go" I said.

We began to walk to the end of the parking lot. I was limping because my heel was broken. I don't even remember it breaking.

As we got closer to the exit I saw that we either had to go down the stairs or take the elevator. I feel like if we take the elevator it's more safe so no can see us. We'll just have to see.

A thought comes up in my head. It kinds of scares me. I decide to ask Zink and Deja.

" Deja and Zink.... where is Trevor, what happened to him. He was supposed to be with you guys? " I asked.

I was a little nervous to ask that. Trevor was with them in the house. Oh geez I hope he's okay. I place my hand on my forehead and shake my head.

"I don't know" Zink said.

" what do you mean you don't know?" I said.

How can they not know where he is. He was there at my house with them. I need to calm down because I feel like about to panic.

"we didn't see him, we just heard him when you guys were arguing with Jacob. Jacob found us in the that room. I don't remember what happened after that. I just know we ended right here" Deja said.

Oh my God. Did they hear what we were saying. How I killed Jacob little sister. I never told them what happened. I didn't plan on telling them ever. No one.

I looked up at Deja and Zink. Deja looked down at the ground. And Zink nodded at me. They know everything. I feel this weird feeling in my chest.

From a distance I could see that the elevators doors open. My eyes meet Jacobs. My heart feels like it dropped on the floor and exploded. Why does this always happen to me? It was like we were having another stare down. I snapped back to reality.

"RUN!" I scream.

The girls turned around and we started running. We're running to the other side of the parking garage. There's a sign that says "7 floor" above some stairs. We hurried and run over there.

We climbed up the stairs to the seventh floor. I looked up and there's so much stairs ahead of us. I don't know if we're going to make it. This will take like 4 minutes to get to the seventh floor. I don't we have that much energy.

"try to faster you guys" I said.

Step after step we keep going. My chest feels heavy. I'm breathing hard and deep. I could see the girls were getting tired too.

"keep going you guys, it will be able okay, push passed the tiredness" I yelled up to them.

Tyla was in the front, then Deja and Zink. Me being the last I looked back and I didn't see anyone following us.

" there's a sign and a door right there" Tyla yelled to us.

We continue to go up the stairs. As I run up up the stairs I continuously glance down.

Tyla pushed opened this heavy green door and we went through it.

We stopped before we went any further. We were inside of a casino. Full of people playing games and drinking.

"why the hell are we in a casino?" Deja asked.

"I have no idea" I said.

"I think we should go, before we get spotted by anyone" Zink said.
We started to walk not trying to make any contact with anyone. This casino is huge. I don't even know if we'll find our way out of it soon. We're constantly pushing pass people. Loud music playing, and people are dancing.

"you girls want to try our mini dessert" some guy holding a tray with mini cakes on it ask us.

"no thanks" I said trying to ignore him.

"oh come on, it's free" he says.

The girls look at me.

"I am hungry" deja said.

"me too" Tyla and Deja.

Do they not know where trying to get out of here before Jacob finds us? I mean I'm hungry too but I rather be starving instead of getting killed. They looked at me like they wanted me to give them a very important answer to a very important question.

"fine, just hurry" I said.

They quickly grabbed a cake. I look behind me to if I see anyone. There were no sign of anyone so I picked up a cake too and began to eat. I looked around to see if there's a way to get out. Like a door or something.

"how are we going to get out of here?" Zink asked.

"maybe we can ask someone where the exit is" Tyla said eating.

"we need to look for some help, like the police" Deja said.

"no" I said quickly.

They looked at me like I was crazy. I knew it was the appropriate thing to call the police. But I couldn't. He could tell the police that I was guilty for killing his sister.

"Jacob has to many things against me, that I can get into a lot of trouble with" I said.

"what are you talking about, we need to tell the police. We need to get help from someone, my brother is probably worried sick about me right now" Tyla said looking away.

"I know, we just can't. It's too risky. We just have to find a way out of here on our own" I said.

"well I don't even know what exactly is going on or who this Jacob person is but you guys can leave me out of it. I'm going to get some help" Tyla said walking away.

I looked at Deja and Zink and I mocked the words "help" of out of my mouth.

Zink grabbed Tyla arm.

"wait,I know you don't understand, but you can trust us okay" Zink said.

"I don't know" Tyla said.

Something told me that I should turn around. I turn my head to the back of me. I saw Jacob pushing pass people towards us. He wasn't looking at me so I guest he didn't see us yet.

"we need to leave now!" I yelled.

They looked at me shocked.

"hurry!" I screamed.

We ran..
