"I haven't eaten all day...My bet, it's Jakes tequila."
Natalie says gagging.
"Score one for number five."
Everyone looks at Stavo.
"How are you so chill about this."
"Back in Phoenix...it was a thing to go to the desert and trip on Ayahuasca...I did it once it had the same pungent smell as that tequila...made you hurl too. I think we might have been dosed."
"Jake...wouldn't do that."
Emma said. Natalie vomited in a bucket and Will patted on her back. She lifted up.
"His behavior has been less than stellar for the past two days."
"Yeah. He hasn't answered my calls either."
Will said.
"Ayahuasca. Used as a spiritual medicine in ceremonies among the indigenous people's of Amazonian Peru."
Noah looked up from his phone.
"Yeah so if that's what we all drank...the vomiting should stop soon. It's fairly harmless."
"Individuals often feel they gain access to higher dimesions and make contact with spiritual guides. What does that mean!"
"It means we start hallucinating."
"Oh my god."
Emma gasped.
"Or not. It effects everyone differently. I mean some people feel wired. Other get tired and pass out. Me? I got super relaxed. It all depends on what's buried inside you."
"Oh great. I just wanted to have fun...that's all I W-Wan-"
Natalie vomits again in the bucket.
"Look if we are all about to start hallucinating, we need to keep everyone inside this house. We need to be safe."
"Yes. I will get everyone from outside."
"I'll give ya a hand."
Stavo insists.
"Haha no I'll give her a hand."
Audrey walks past Emma and Natalie gives Stavo a weird look.

...

Natalie had stopped vomiting finally after 20 minutes of sitting there. People around were acting high and Natalie was walking like she was in heels, wobbling around.
She walked past the stairs and heard a voice call her name.
"Natalie."
She looked and saw Jake.
"Jake..."
He grabbed her hand and pulled her inside a bedroom.
"Hey. It's Stavo."
Natalie shook her head. It was Stavo.
"Jake...he was here."
"No. Its ij your head."
"I feel so werid."
She looked out into the hallway and Jake walked past.
"Hes there."
Natalie walked round Stavo to the hallway. She followed him and he disappeared.
"He was here...he had to be."
"Natalie."
She turned and saw Jake again. She dove on top of him, hugging him and looked up to see Stavo. He grabbed her shoulders and pushed her onto the bed.
Natalies stomach ached and she pulled at the bed.
"Hey Nat."
Jake appeared next to her.
"Jake."
"Hey sweety."
He kneeled down and stroked her forehead. She was sweating and shook her head.
"Your not real...your not real!"
"Damn right."
She screamed and pulled up, pushing her legs out.
Natalie started to breath heavy.
"Natalie."
Stavo sat in front of her.
She looked up and saw Brooke behind him.
"Hello Sis."
"NO!"
She shook her head.
"NO no no...please."
"Listen to my voice Natalie."
Jakes voice rang through her head.
"Haha you think your safe. I don't think so."
Brooke's voice rang through her head as well.
"Calm down."
Stavo said calmly to her. He hugged her and rocked her side to side.
Red and blue lights flicked into the room from outside.
"Cops...god dammit."
Stavo said.

...

20 minutes later all the lakewood 7 except for Jake were sitting around.
Acosta and the police showed up and stopped everything and questioned everyone.
"So the killer attacked you. While you were hallucinating."
He asked Emma.
Apparently Emma walked outside and the killer was running after her, attacking her but nobody saw anything.
"I don't know if I was."
"I only heard her scream."
Noah muttered.
"Oh my god my head is pounding."
Natalie wined.
"How did you guys get this drink?"
"Jake."
Will said.
"Jake...you mean Jake Fitzgerald, he came here tonight."
"No. He dropped a bottle off and never showed."
Natalie grabbed a bag of ice from Stavo.
"Thank you."
Stavo smiled at her and she placed the bag of ice on her head.
"Have you spoke to Jake today?"
"Not since yesterday at school."
"Same here."
"Yeah. Same here too."
People around agreed.
"And why were you here Stavo?"
Acosta asked his son.
"There was a party so I came to the party."
Acosta sighed and shook his head.
"Alright...time to go home and stop partying."
Everyone stood up. Noah helped his sister since she was still reacting to the Ayahuasca.
"Come on you."
Noah said. Everyone said goodbye and went home.
After a horrible party like that, everyone agreed to never accept anything from Jake ever again.

Should I post another one?
It's about the Lady of the lake finalists.
