"Come on, Dominique!" Summer, my friend, yelled impatiently as she yanked on the sleeve of my black hoodie. I groaned rolling my head back, "Stop rushing me!" I looked to the red headed girl and sighed, "what's the rush to get home, Summer?" Summer stopped in her tracks spinning around to her friend as her curled locks cupped her face in the wind, "Don't you remember?" She raised a brow. My friend Ruth cringed knowing what I had forgotten was a big deal to Summer.
I shook my head making my long blonde hair swish. Summer's grey eyes had a look of disappointment in them, "you didn't remember my birthday party..?" She looked down reaching her hands into the pockets of her dark red sweater. My blue eyes widened as I look at Summer, "Shit! I'm sorry Summer! I've been so worried about my mom that... I-I just wasn't thinking..." Tears filled in my eyes as I thought of my mom in the hospital. She just had surgery and she wasn't doing as well as we planned. Summer glanced up, "oh..." She muttered silently. "I forgot all about that." I rolled my eyes in disgust, "Let's just get to your party, okay?" Summer nodded her head and started heading towards her house where the party was. We walked for what seemed like forever in the blistering cold. The wind smacked at my face making it feel like my skin was being pulled off. I pulled up the hood on my sweater, "Are we almost there?" I sighed.
Summer nodded and pointed to her apartment with a smile, "We're here!" She cheered. I let out a deep breath as we walked into the warmth of her place. 'Hopefully this won't last long.' I thought to myself as I plopped down in an empty seat next to Ruth. She smiled at me knowing I was upset. Her green eyes had a true look of worry in them. "Are you okay, Dominique?" I assured her I was okay and smiled. She nodded and got up to get some cake. My blue orbs glanced around the party. A robot themed birthday party huh?
??? P.O.V.
I followed the three girls home. They walk so slow! It was starting to irk at my bones, but i really enjoyed looking at the blonde one. Something about her made my heart melt. I wasn't sure what it was... Was it her sparkling blue eyes? Or the way her tight blue jeans grabbed her ass? Hmm... I smirked at the thought of that. They stopped at an apartment and went inside, "ugh" I groaned. My dark eyes spotted a tree near the window of the apartment. Quickly I raced up the tree to get a better look of where they were going. Was this a birthday party? A robot themed birthday party? For a teenager? I chuckled a bit. It seemed cool but not my kind of thing.
"Dominique!" The red headed one called out to her friend. I touched my lips, "so Dominique is your name" I whispered as if tasting the name.
"I like her... And she will be mine."
Dominique's P.O.V.
"Dominique!" Summer yelled my way. I sighed and got up walking towards her voice, "what?" Summer looked up at me with her grey eyes, "can you stay and help clean up? The party is over and everyone has left." She had a pleading look on her face. "Yeah... I guess so." I smiled as I started picking up paper plates everywhere. The tv blurted out "Breaking News!" Summer and I jerked our heads towards the tv. "An ominous unknown killer is on the loose. 23 have been murdered. The killer has last been spotted on Courtney avenue." My heart dropped to the floor and Summer looked at me wide eyed. "That's w-where you live..." She choked on her words.
