Different.

Chapter 5

*** PICTURE ABOVE IS Anastasia ***

I walked to the door and opened it. What I saw made me nervous.

"Hello?" I said.

"Are you Kylie Adams?" A police officer asked me.

"Yes, why?" I asked him.

"A witness said that they saw you at a party with Alexis Jones, is that true?"

"Um, yeah that's right, why?"

"Why? Well, I'll tell you why, because she was murdered, or she was mutilated by an animal, she's dead." He explained.

"What?! Does Anastasia know?" I was crying now, even though I didn't really know her that well, but I hung out with her, and I got to know her better. 

"No, we've gone to her house but there was no answer, we thought you would tell her when you saw her, we've been really busy lately."

"Oh, so telling someone that their best friend is dead isn't so important? Whatever I'll be the good person and tell my BEST FRIEND that her other friend was horribly killed. Where did this happen anyway?" I asked, my voice shaky.

"It happened in the woods behind the hosts' house, In the middle of the woods." My heart dropped when he said that. The person that was on the ground, bleeding, was Alexis. I saw that person... thing, murder her, and I didn't even stop it.

"M'am?"

"Thank you for telling me, I am going to go to bed now." I shut the door right in their faces, not caring what else they have to say. I walk upstairs, I don't know what to say, so I just lay in my bed and wait for sleep to consume me. Finally, it does.

I wake up at 12 pm, and everything hits me all at once. I decided to borrow my dads car and go to Ana's house.

When I arrive, I knock on her door. I waited until I realized that she wasn't coming.

I wake up in the morning, dazed-like. Before I realize it, I'm in chemistry.

Days pass, I haven't seen Ana in awhile... it's been almost 2 and a half weeks. I also noticed that Derek is gone too. Weird.

**********************************************************************************************

I walk into Chemistry and sit down, unaware that Ana sits down right next to me. I turn around, and I almost scream.

"Oh my gosh! Ana! Where have you been?!" She looks different. I stare at her and trying to see what it is. Hey, eye bags are gone. She's got an even better figure (not saying that it wasn't a good figure before). Her cheekbones are more sunken in. She has longer eyelashes and longer hair. "What the hell happened to you?"

"What do you mean? I'm fine." She says sternly.

"What do I mean? Are you being serious? Do you even know what happened to Lexi?" I tried to hold my tears back.

"Oh, yeah. I do. That sucks, but you know, she was a total bitch anyway." She almost laughed... Wtf?!

"It sucks? Are you being for real right now?" Thankfully the teacher started to teach the lesson. I didn't look at her once the whole class. When it's over, I get right up and almost run out of the class.

"Kylie, wait up!"

"No Ana, I don't have time for you to be so insensitive. She was your friend, Your best friend. It sucks? What the hell is that?" I yell at her, everyone stares at us.

"Woah, Kylie, Ana, what's going on?" I turn around and see Derek. 

"Wow, really, your stepping in? You want to be nice? Look, I'm done with you, Ana... You to Derek, you dick." I say that and I walk away. While I'm walking I can hear Derek calling for me, but I don't care. I also seemed to have forgotten that the next class I have is with Derek and I have to sit next to him.

I finally get to my class, one of the first ones, thanks to my running. Derek walks in and sits down. After a few minutes, he talks.

"Kylie, look, Ana is just in a bad state right now."

"Don't even try to be nice to me. Don't even try to talk to me. You have been nothing but a complete jerk to me. And what are you guys, are you guys like a thing now?" I say sharply.

"Are you jealous? No, we're not a thing. I have my eye on someone else." He winked at me. I scoffed.

"Your definitely something else."  I ignored him the whole class, even his flirty lines. I just left after that class, I had my dad pick me up. It was another silent ride home. When I got home, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She broke up with John and found another guy, who treats her well, she deserves it. She asked me about how it was being with dad again, and I told her it was fine. She also asked about friends, and I told her about Lexi and Ana, I told her everything, even Derek, who is a complete douche. After the phone call, I took a nap.

When I woke up, it was 2:03. I decided to check the mail. I went outside and saw that Derek wasn't home. I walked over to his backyard, the spot where I heard a scream. The backdoor to his house was open, I decided to be a stupid person and investigate. I walked into his house unknowingly. When I realized I was inside, I wanted to look around. His house is huge, and it's old everything is vintage. It's also really tidy, unnerving. I walked into the basement and the first thing I saw was a cellar. What? I also saw a cooler. I walked up and opened it, and what I saw made me run. I ran out of the house so fast and made it back into my room in a blur. Blood bags. Why were there blood bags? Who are they? 

My doorbell broke the silence in my house.
