To My Last Breath ~

Chapter Two

'Bea, get up now! You'll be late ' the strict but soft voice of my father interrupted my dream. I hissed as I opened my eyes only to meet the silhouette of my father, heading to the window and pulled the curtains. The daylight came into my room,lighting up everything around. I sighed and i rubbed my eyes. 'I'm getting up, chill' I muttered and covered my face with the pillow.

'Hurry, we need to talk about something. I will wait for you in the kitchen' he said before leaving my room, leaving the door open. Agh, I hated this habit. If you can open the door, you should be able to close it, right? With HUGE effort I got up from my warm bed, dragging my feet I went to the bathroom. It was only 6:30 AM, so I didn't have to hurry. 

I had enough time to get ready for school. Yawning, I rubbed my neck and stood in front of the huge mirror in the bathroom. The sight was literally terrifying. I frowned at the look of my face. My face is all swollen, I had huge bags under the eyes and my hair was a hell of a shock. God, what happened during the night? There was an attack from pillows or what? I laughed to myself. I had to fix this disaster. I took off my pajamas and threw it into the laundry basket. 

I went into the shower and I adjusted the water on the right temperature. I loved long showers. You're staying alone with nothing but your own thoughts and forget about the outside world . I removed the conditioner from my hair and stopped the water. Stepping out of the shower, I wrapped a towel around my body. Drops of water fell on the tiles. I stopped in front of the mirror and brushed my teeth. Well, it's time to fix this mess. I took the bag with my makeup out of the cabinet and took out everything I needed to give a little color and some good look on my face. I put on makeup base, then concealer, focusing mainly on my bags. 

Once finished with concealer, I put some foundation to hide the imperfections. I finished with eyeliner and mascara. Voila, my makeup was ready. Now I had to take care of my terrible hair. I dried her her fast and brushed it. My hair was naturally straight and didn't need to straighten her. I looked at the mirror and smiled. 'That's much better.' I whispered and went back to my room. I had prepared some clothes last night. Black high-waisted skirt and white shirt. I put on the skirt and the shirt below it. I put on my leather jacket and I was ready to go.

 I was wondering what dad wanted to talk about with me. Probably he would leave for a few days again for some 'business' meetings. As a real estate broker, he traveled constantly. Don't get me wrong, I love my father and he works a lot to satisfy all my needs, but sometimes I wanted him to spend some time with me. I sighed heavily and took the stairs leading to the first floor, but I stopped in front the door leading to my dad's office. 

For some reason, my access to it was absolutely banned. It was constantly locked, even when dad was home. What's that so shocking secret that may be in an office of an ordinary broker? I shrugged and went downstairs. The pleasant smell of coffee had dispersed across the floor. I went into the kitchen and found my dad sitting on a chair with a coffee cup in his hand. His eyes stopped at me and he smiled warmly. 'Good morning, buddy,' he said, getting up and kissed me gently on the forehead. He does it every morning, at least when he was home. He was a truly caring father and I loved him SO much.

'Good morning,' I said warmly and sat down on the chair next to him. He handed me a cup of coffee and sat back in his chair. 'Well, what do you want to talk about?' I muttered and took a sip from the black refreshing liquid. 'I have to be away for a few days' i frowned after hearing these words, for the thousandth time. He felt I got upset and took my face in his hands. 'Hey. Don't frown. I promise that when I get back home I will spend as much time as you want with you. I'll take a break ' i have heard that before. I nodded my head slightly and smiled. 'Okay' I whispered back and took and another sip of my coffee.

'I left you some money on the coffee table in the living room. I guess $100 will be enough for a week? ' He looked at me questioningly and I nodded in agreement. 'I have filled the fridge and..there's more' He said, reaching into his jacket pocket, pulled out a small box and handed it to me. As soon as I opened it, I gasped. It was a necklace. A really beautiful necklace. I took it out of the box and dad helped me to put it on. Immediately I jumped on his back for a hug 'I'll take that as a sign that you liked it' he said and laughed. I giggled and stepped away from him. 'I love it' i said with a shrill voice.

'Oh, Bea. You know the rules, right? No strangers in the house, if you see something weird, you call m- ' i interrupted him. 'Yes, I know Dad! It's not like you're leaving me alone for the first time. Have I ever betrayed you?' Although if he knew half the things that I have done, he would not have such a trust in me. I said to myself. 'Of course not. But I just don't want something to happen to you.' he sighed. I could see the anxiety his eyes. 'Everything will be fine. You know Amanda will be with me most of the time' i said leaning on the counter.

 'Um, Dad? Can you give me the car? ' I looked at him with a puppy look. He never lets me drive alone. And just now I saw an opportunity to ask him, because he never takes his car when he travels 'Um, okay. But take care of her, drive gently and please, do not crash it ' He said and handed me the keys. He was such a baby when it comes to cars. I laughed and took the keys from his hands. Yes, my father was wealthy, he could buy my own car, but he didn't want everything to be handed to me. I liked it that way. I looked at the clock and widened my eyes. The time was 7:49. The class begins in 20 minutes and had to take Amanda from her home. 

'Okay, Dad. I have to go so I won't be late. Have a nice flight and call me when you arrive ' I said quickly and kissed him on the cheek. I rushed out the door and got very fast in the car. After a few minutes, I was in front Amanda's house and she was waiting nervously for me. 'About time' she murmured, getting in the black Audi. 'Relax. It's not like we have not missed classes before ' i winked playfully and I drove to our school. It was our last year of school. We have a few months left, they should seriously just relax.

 'Tonight we're going to a party at Ryan' I blurted out' And before you cut me down, and I know that you will do it. Winchester will be there, and I know that you like him' i parked the car in front of our school 'Come on, Bea! I told you I don't like him! And I wouldn't cut you down, I need to relax too. And let me guess .. your father is at a business trip ' i nodded with a smile on my face. Before I left the car I looked in the rear view mirror. I still looked acceptable. Me and Amanda headed toward the entrance of our school when my eyes fell on a guy dressed all in black with a hoodie. I patted Andy on her shoulder to see him and she did it, but he was gone. Strange. I was probably hallucinating due to lack of sleep.

School day went mostly well, slowly but well. But I kept thinking about the man in black from earlier. Did I really saw him or was just weird work of my imagination?

The rest of the afternoon we spent at Amanda's home. We watched movies and ate huge amounts of junk food. 'Hey, did you heard that there is a new kid in our town?' I opened my mouth to answer her question. But she cutted me 'His name is Jason McCann. He's 19. He moved here from New York. Oh, and he is very hot.' I laughed. How did she know all of this? I swear if she applies for an FBI agent they would accept her the moment.

 'God, you're scaring me sometimes' i giggled. Unlocking my phone, the time was 17:30. 'I have to get home and get ready for the party' I said and clapped with my hands. I was really excited. 'Be ready at 8! We're going with a taxi 'I said, raising my eyebrows. She was taking ages to get ready . She nodded and I left her house.

Driving along the main road, my eyes focused on the fucking CD that would not accept the disc with my favorite songs. After a while it finally accepted the disc and Ariana Grande's song - Love me Harder sounded in the car. My attention went back to the road and my eyes immediately widened after I saw some guy in front of my car. My leg stopped on the brake and the car stopped immediately making me jump from my seat. WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED.

DID I JUST RAN OVER SOMEONE?
