The Secret

Chapter 5

So wattpad decided to seperate my story so now I'm putting it back together again. Sorry fot the confusion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rebecca's P.O.V.

She expected me to just sit and wait while she became buddy buddy with my boyfriend. I was so not doing that. I wasn't stupid. So while she does whatever she's doing, I'll be playing detective also. I've always wanted to be a detective, it looked cool. You get to solve crimes and uncover secrets. Which is what I'm trying to do now. I waited for Daniel by his car and when I finally saw him I waved but he didn't return it. He looked upset, I wonder what's wrong. 

But instead of asking right away I gave him one of my killer smiles. "Hey baby," I stood on my tip toes and gave him a peck on the lips. He was stiff so I embraced him in hug which he return. I smiled before releasing him and giving him a frown. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing Rebecca I'm fine. What are you doing here?" he asked and my frown deepened. Can I just wait for him by his car? It's not a crime. I hated how distant he became. Maybe someone else has entered the equation. And no I'm not talking about Aura. 

"Can't I wait for you at your car? I was thinking we can go do something," I said rubbing his arm and he frowned at me. I sighed and stepped away from him crossing my arms. Aura better hurry up, I want my Daniel back. This version of him was horrible.

"I can't today. I'm very busy."

"Busy doing what? You never want to spend time with me anymore."

"It's complicated. You wouldn't understand."

"Well enlighten me. You can talk to me." I hope I wasn't "ruining" anything but a part of me wanted to figure this out before Aura. First, she completely changes my plan and the way she describes her interactions with Daniel, it seems he's happier around her. 

"Not about this, I'm sorry Rebecca." He sounded so unemotional. It made me feel as if he didn't care about me anymore. I was hurt, angry, confused, so many emotions past threw me but the one that stuck was anger. 

"Are you serious Daniel? What, is there someone else? What the hell could be so complicated that I wouldn't understand? Are you trying to lose me?"

"Rebecca-"

"Shut up, you don't have to explain. I'm might now understand it. Too complicated right?"

"Just listen to me-"

"Why should I?" I crossed my arms and I could see him getting angry. It was better then that unemotional person from before. I wanted to bring out some sort of emotion from him. "You don't want to hang out with me anymore, you don't even bring me over to your house anymore. Plus, you won't even explain why. How am I suppose to feel about that?" 

"Well if you would just shut up and listen to me you would get some answers!" he screamed at me and I flinched. Maybe anger wasn't the best emotion. It was very rare for Daniel to get angry, especially at me. We used to be so happy together but everything changed. 

"Well then explain yourself."

"I can't tell you what's going on. I have to handle the problem first and then I'll answer any questions you have. You just have to be patient with me. I also can't explain why you can't come over anymore, well not yet. Can you please just understand?"

"Hell no! You said you would give me answers, that's not answers. I'm running out of patients Daniel. Are you going to tell me what's going on, right now?"

I could see so much anger in his eyes and he soon closed them so I wouldn't see. I stared at him, uncertain of what was going to happen next. I didn't want to lose him but I didn't want to be in a relationship with secrets. My one and only solution right now was Aura Thomas. "I have to go," he said through clenched teeth and attempted to walk away from me. I grabbed at his arm but quickly release it when his touch burned my skin. What the hell was that?

He stared back at me with panicked eyes before running to the drivers seat and getting into his car. "Daniel wait!" I called to him but it was too late, he already took of. I looked down at my palm and saw that it was red from the burn. How did his skin burn my palm? I didn't think anger could do that. 

"Rebecca!" Jada screamed and I turned around to see her running toward me. She stopped in front of me breathing heavily. "Why are you crying?" she asked and I felt my face. Sure enough, it was stained with tears I didn't even known were there. I explained to her what happened but left out the part about my hand being burned. I still didn't know what all that was about but the only person I wanted to tell was Aura. I don't know why I suddenly trusted her with that infromation but I did. 

"So what are you going to do now?" she asked me after I finished talking. I wiped the remaining tears from my eyes and let anger dominate my emotions. 

"I'm going to find out what the hell he is hiding no matter what. I'm not losing him to this, and I need Aura's help. I'll call you later with the rest of the girls and her and we'll talk. I'm speeding this up."

It was a short walk home and I walked it alone. I didn't want to be bothered with anyone right now. I would just go home and relax. No homework, no stress, just relaxation. Just the thought of it made me speed up. I wouldn't think about anything. Nope. Not until when I have to call them and go over everything. I was on the verge of snapping and I just had to relax. 

"Aw, poor you. Why you crying Becky?" said a familiar voice. I turned around and there stood Sabrina, Daniel's sister, leaning against a tree. I could barely recognize the girl. She looked completely different. Her short copper hair was now longer with black streaks. She traded her long skirts for short ones that barely covered anything and crop tops. Her usual innocent look was completely gone. She looked as if she could be the older sister instead of Daniel being the older brother. They were only a year apart, Daniel being seventeen. 

"Sabrina? You look so different," I said and she rolled her eyes at me. I didn't know what was up with her. It hasn't been long since I last seen her, yet she changed so much. 

"Well, I am different. You didn't answer my question."

"It was your brother, he-"

"Aw Daniel made you cry? You poor child," she mocked coming closer to me. I stared at her confused as to how she could be so heartless. 

"What is wrong with you?" I whispered and she laughed in my face. 

"I should ask you that. Stop crying over a boy, you guys won't last long anyways. Let me guess..." she stopped and stared intently at me. Her green eyes seemed to glow and I felt light headed all of a sudden. "You want answers and he's not telling you what's going on."

I blinked my eyes multiple times trying to stop the strange feeling I was getting. What's going on? Sabrina smiled evilly at me. "What are you doing? What's going on?" I asked holding my head. It was burning up.

"Oh, I would tell you but it's not like you're going to remember this conversation anyways. Go home, relax." she patted my head and walked away from me leaving me there confused as to what just happened.

I started to walk and my head cleared with each step I took.  I would just go home and relax. No homework, no stress, just relaxation. Just the thought of it made me speed up.......
