Dan's house...California

Kate's POV

During the ride home, all I did was think about Jessica's question.

'What if we find things about the picture you don't like.'

I had answered her honestly. I seriously wouldn't know how to react. Would I confront Dan about it or would I just keep it to myself?

"Here," Spencer handed me his phone, "Hurry up Kate."

"I'll be by my window for a catcher," I said, stepping out of the car and walking up the driveway.

I opened the front door slowly and as quietly as possible. Jacky showing up clearly meant I wasn't quiet enough.

"Goodness Kate. Are you okay? Where have you been," she ran to me and pulled me into a tight hug.

"Are you hungry? What must I make you? Why do you smell like alcohol?" She bombarded me with questions not realizing my head was throbbing.

"No thank you. I'm gonna go shower and sleep if that's okay," I said.

"Well okay. Goodnight then," she seemed hesitant to let me go but did do anyway. I waited for her to leave so I can get a picture of photo. But Jacky just stood her, eyeing me. I walked slowly up the stairs hoping she would be gone before I get to my room, but there was no such luck.

I reached my bedroom but didn't go inside. I waited a few seconds before going back down to see if Jacky was gone yet, and to my surprise, she was. I quickly went and took the picture and ran back to my bedroom, entering it this time. I opened my window and prepared to drop the phone but saw nobody there. Shit.

"Kate," I heard someone whisper. I looked down and saw Spencer ready to catch his IPhone 6 dropping from two stories high. He caught it and ran back the direction he came from.

"Kat?" I heard Dan's voice call out. "I heard you come in."

I stayed silent.

"Dan she is sleeping," I then heard Jacky's voice from down stairs.

"Goodnight," he whispered then left.

I was too tired for another shower so I sank into my sheets with ease.

Dan's house...California.

"Shit! Fuck!" I screamed. Waking up from another nightmare.

I was sweating and shaking as usual. Nothing new. Except no-one was in my room when I wake up. Maybe they hadn't heard me scream.

"I think we should go in.." I heard whispering outside my door.

"No Dan. Remember last night? I think we should just sit here and wait,"

"Wait for what? World War Three to happen in her head?" He whisper-yelled to Jacky.

"Go in then, see what she does," I saw the handle go down as if someone was trying to open the door. Shit I hadn't locked the door.

"You're right. Maybe we should just go to bed," Dan said, letting go of the handle.

I sighed in relief.

I tried to stay awake to avoid anymore nightmares but it didn't work. I fell asleep.

"You stabbed her to death. How could you, I'm disgusted in you. Kat."this time the voice sounded familiar and it called me Kat.

Dan's house...California

I woke up tired. My head pounding. My eyelids heavy. My body...painful.

I showered and got ready for the day. I wore my pajamas and a Jersey. I wasn't going anywhere. I went downstairs to get some food.

"You feeling better?" Jacky asked immediately.

"Yeah thank."

There was awkward silence between us.

"Umm. Jack-y," I stuttered. "Thank you for stopping Dan last night and this morning from coming into my room."

"It's no problem," she said with a faint smile. "What do you wanna eat?"

"Cereal? I'll make it myself."

I had coco-pops. They were really delicious. Jacky and I spoke during breakfast and when it was over she went to my room to unpack the shopping we did on Saturday while I stayed downstairs and watched T.V.

I got bored after a while and decided to go help Jacky. I walk up the stairs and turn to my room and see my door opened ajar. I opened it slightly and saw Jacky standing there, holding my sheets in her hands and staring at the..dried blood on them. Then I realized why it was still damp the next morning. It was bleeding the whole night. As if on cue, Jacky looked up at me. Her face worry stricken.

"W-what is this Kate?" She could barely speak. Immediately after she asked that, my arms began to itch. She saw me and I wanted to run, but I couldn't. I was frozen to the spot. She came closer and I finally could move so I ran away. Like I always do, I wanted to exit the house. I reached for the handle on the front door but it was locked. My eyes were stinging by then. Why I was crying? I don't know either. But I was and I didn't want Jacky to see. I looked behind and saw Dans study and ran to it. It was unlocked so I went in and locked it. I sat there on the floor and the tears came.

I realized that I'm never gonna get more than two votes on a chapter so here is one. Thanks to the two votes I got though :)
