Charlotte's POV
As the women held the knife to my neck, I saw some of the bushes shake from the corner of my eye and I knew it was Evie. Man I feel terrible for letting this bitch back to her life. Evie never found out that I know their story. Since the start I stayed friends with her so I knew she would be safe but over the years I kind of forgotten about it until one day.
A phew months back when I was texting my bf, I had a call from an anonymous caller. Beying an idiot I answered it and it took off from there. I didn't want to scare Evie by laying everything on her.
Seconds later, I came back to reality. And the women said with the knife to my neck "where. Is. She" but in panic I faked out fainting. Lucky enough she believed me. She violently threw me to the ground and walked over to Jessica as she was tied to a pole.
I knew I had a chance to run but I couldn't have left them.
All these years I've been protecting Evie, and I did the exact opposite. For all I know she could be lying dead in the bushes.
I couldn't hear the women talking to Jesus so I crawled over to the bushes where I saw Evie covered with blood and bits of glass in her leg. But, she just looked at me. She knew that she could die and she knew that she was mad. But it all formed in a look.
Until "GET OVER HERE!" the women shouted "where is she" she whispered down my ear.. I said "heaven" with a tear falling down my cheek "she's dead if that's the answer you want"
Then, she laughed. Grabbed held of me and said "now you know the pain I went through. But, so this doesn't meek out anywhere you get to die, a long with this girl right h-"
Jess was gone. The ropes were cut. Where'd she go?
Jessica's POV
I broke free as soon as Charlotte said Evie was dead. I ran to the spot in the bushes where she was. I lay down next to Evie, she had a gun gripping in her hands. I thought she was dead, so I silently cried for a phew minutes and tried to get the gun out of her hands. But to my surprise, she whispered in my ear and said " run, go as far as you can and forget all of this. I know it's all of a sudden, but you don't need to be dragged into all of this. Go, live the rest of your life.. I'll be fine" I nodded and ran away. Regretting my choice but I kept on going. But I had a blanc look on my face. Just amazed on what can happen in a phew days. But I should keep my promise and live my life.
Evie's POV
As I lay on the grass, with the gun in hand, I thought on what it would do to the people around all of us.
I knew I had to get her before I bled to death.
Charlotte's POV
"thanks to you she could be dead" I whispered down the women's ear. "you know what?" she whispered back. "you can see her in hell for all I care!" she held the knife closer to my neck. But then a rattle from the bush around us came along.
