The Locket (In Editing)

Chapter 13 The Letter

I run back inside feeling like mush from what Chase had said. He had said those three words, I can't even think them without freaking out! I laugh to myself from being weird. I go into my room and see Eve and Fiona painting nails on the floor, nail polsh laying every where around them. Eve looks up from what she was doing and smiles at me. Eve was doing great, she was 4 months pregant, she and James where the cutest couple ever! Fiona and Kent always go out on Friday she calls them date nights, I just smile at her and talk all bubbly right back. It was December and winter break would start on December 4th all the way to Janaury the 4th. I won't be able to go home because my mom is making a new film all the way in Montana. After I get in a shower and do girl stuff, I quickly dress myself ducky pajama pants and white tank top I then go under my blue covers with white poka dots and let sleep take over me. Once I wake up I notice no one is in the room I look at Fiona's side still filled with clutterr of who knows what! I shrug it off and walk over to my white dresser and take out some skinny jeans and a Forever 21 shirt and white pumps that goes with the shirt. Before I go  I notice a letter on my bedside table next to one of the packages I've been getting for a while. I pick up the letter and package and sit on my bed wondering what I should do first.

Well Kayla don't you think it would be a smart idea to open the letter and find out! I roll my eyes at myself man I'm bossy! I really should work on that. I pick up the letter that was in a crisp white envelope. Writer is all it said. I smile to myself just of thinking of this writer guy, I wonder who he is? What if it's a she? That's way creep then! I quickly snap my thoughts off and go back to the envolpe. I take it carefully in my hands and peel the seal off, once it's fully off I take out the letter that is neatly folded. I then open the letter.

Dear Kayla,

I know you are probably wonder who I am? Well this  letter and that box will give you all the information you need. Where should I start? I got it! Let's start when I first saw you? Like that idea because I sure do! The first time I saw you was when I moved in next door to your house, I was six and so where you. I saw you playing on your lawn with a couple of dolls of yours, you looked like an angel. Always have and always will. I remember what you where wearing perfectly, your hair was curled and you where wearing a pink summer dress with white poka dots all over. A bow to match, you where perfect to me. Still are. Then we turned ten, and things went down hill. My mom and your mom got in a fight and made us not be friends. I think that broke my heart most of all, remember in sixth grade I put red paint on your seat and you had to change. The time in 7th grade when I tripped you and said in front of the whole school that you loved Greg Tyler the biggest nerd in school. Or in 8th grade when I made your Gym clothes smell so bad that when we where playing the coach yelled at you. I felt satisfied but wanted to run to you and hold you to make you stop crying. Like the time I punched Jimmy Cal because he called you mean names, I stayed with you till you stopped crying. You know what I said? I will stand by you

I will help you through

When you’ve done all you can do

And you can’t cope

And I will dry your eyes

I will fight your fight

I will hold you tight

And I won't let go" ~ Rascal Flatts. What I said is true. I will always be there Kayla and I won't let you go. But I've broken that promise and I know that.I ruined a great relationship I should have stuck up to my mom long ago and I know I screwed up big time! But I love your beautiful emerald green eyes that shine when you smile and the way your laugh rings like a bell through the air. Kayla you are perfect in every way shape and form. When I said I loved you the other night I meant it, I love you Kayla always have and always will. I will stand by you when you need me. I will help you through these tough times right now I promise. I will dry your eyes, I will hold you tight, but most importantly I WILL FIGHT for you! And don't forget it!

Love You Always,

Writer

A.K.A Chase Grey

I just sit on my bed feeling week from what I just read, was it true? I look at the box now wondering if I should open it or not. I take a deep breath and slowly untangle the pink box off the small white box, as soon as it falls off I slowly open the white lid. I look inside and my heart goes up into my throat from what I'm seeing the smal key to my locket laid right in the middle of the box. I pick it up and take my locket from around my neck. I slid the key into the hole until it makes a soft click I open it and look into the small locket. I feel tears come to my eyes as I see what's inside, a picture of Chase and I, I look at the familiar crest on the top that said I love you in cursive letters that my grandma had put in there when I was young. I get up and close the locket and connect the key back onto the chain and slip the necklace under my shirt. I get up and run down the hall to the main hall, Eve, James, Kent, and Fiona were watching T.V quietly laughing at random parts. They all look up at me when they hear my heels on the hard wood as I slide some what to a stop. They must of just waxed the floors...why am I think this stop it! Fiona smiles at me her blue eyes shining at me her red hair in perfect curls going down her back. James and Kent are both looking at me as if I'm crazy, while Eve looks at her polished nails.

"Have you guys seen Chase?" I ask breathlessly. Eve snaps out of her trance and looks at me.

"What did he do?" she growls.

"Nothing I need to talk to him," I say.

"I don't think thats it what ever that bastard did I will kill him,"

"He did nothing I need to talk to him," I explain in a rush.

"No he left to visit his parents," James says shaking his head.

"Oh," Is all I can say.

Lexi's P.O.V

I walk down the hall bored out of my mind, Natalie won't shut up for like 2 damn seconds. I look on the floor to see a crisp peice of paper. I walk to it and pick it up, I look at it and smile evily I run down to the boys side and knock on Kyles door.

"What do you want Lexi?" he asks groggily.

"I have the next greatest piece of gossip," I say showing him the piece of paper.

Kayla's P.O.V

I sulk and go to my room and lay on my bed exhausted from running around and not in the mood. I need to talk to him! I pick up my phone and see that I have text messages all from an unknown I.D. I look at them all saying meet me outside in ten minutes I want to talk to you along those lines pretty much.

'Should I go?'

'Ummm let think about this Kayla ummmm hmmm unknown stranger talking to you? Hmmm you know that's a pretty hard decision but if I must chose I would chose... Don't Go!'

'Yeah but I want to know what this person wants...'

'Probably you dead!'

'Hey that's harsh!'

'That's my job!'

'Still you don't have to be so mean' I stop the small little argueing in my head and go outside. I look around to see a figure by the trees, as I walk I can feel myself get more and more nervise by the second. What if he really did want me dead? Or worse papparzzi? Now I sound like a bimbo! I shake out all my thoughts away and go up to him. As I get closer I can see more of this figure, he's tall and well built that's for sure. Once I reach him I clear my throat, the person turns around and faces me. I'm ready to close my eyes when I reconzie this person. My eyes go wide and tears come to my eyes. He and I just stand there for a second until he wraps his arms around me and hugs me. I let a small tear come out from my eye as I let his familiar smell come back into my nose. The beat of his heart soathing me as it always did when I felt alone.
