Chasing Cambridge

We Dig Into Her Past

Shawn's P.O.V.
            Okay so what we found was like four hundred times worse than what we were expecting to find. Kostia had been torturing Cambridge for the better half of six months. That's before she even met Cambridge. Poor Cam was being stalked by an unknown person for three months then had a face to put with the messages for the last three months. In all this time no one had a close the suffering she was going through. Which certainly makes me feel like the worlds shittiest boyfriend. As we delve further into the past the harder it is too look. Oh god I think I'm going to be sick. Almost every social media account, texts, countless terror attempts and not one of us new.

         I try thinking back to when she first started getting messages. I never thought about it but she was thinking out way faster than she needed to. She was going to the gym longer, I would come home to her colored in permanent marker, and she got quieter. But I never thought about it. She drew on herself regularly if she didn't have paper. She would get dramatically quiet if she was working on something. But the gym one I never thought about it. She's not a workout junky but she loved to workout to relax after a long hard day but for like an hour maybe an hour and a half but never two or three hour sessions. Signs of hurt and abuse and I looked right past it.

Kenzi's P.O.V.
           This was way worse than I had even imagined. Nash brought a monster into our lives and he totally knows it now. The more read the more I feel my lunch turning in my stomach
stomach. We waited two days to do this. Cam has been freaking out over her missing phone but we assured her it probably was left somewhere when she finally went to physical therapy that's where she is now. Two hours we have to find out the truth. Two hours. That includes the time getting home and picking her up. That's really not a lot. But when we looked in we found a treasure chest of treachery hidden in her phone within five minutes. The second I woke up yesterday Shawn approached me begging me to let him in on the plan. I only agreed when he told me that he needed this desperately. I could see it in his eyes. He felt bad not knowing something was up.

              I look at Nash he is pale. He's almost clammy. I know he's panicking over the information. He thought Kostia was perfect. That she loved our family, our sister who, who despite being terrorized put on a smile and did whatever to pretend everything was ok. When in fact nothing absolutely nothing was ok. It kills me to see him this way. He had no way of knowing. She had us all fooled. I do know that had Cambridge said something to us Nash would have done something about it. He's always put us first. He's always been super protective over us. What I'm most surprised about is Hayes not knowing he is protective to the max if he didn't know no one would. She had to be damn near perfect to get away with it for so long.

      Kostia Tosie perfect, beautiful, the crazy is what we all didn't see but I guess with beauty psychosis is a given. The worse part is I'm about ninety percent sure she is a sociopath. She was so charming but she definitely didn't feel the smirk on her face when they carried her away, the way she blamed Bri for the attack, how she ignored the fact that Cam was missing and asked to Netflix and chill. So damn disrespectful. She has to also be narcissistic she loved talking about herself no matter the topic Kostia could somehow make it about her. My grandpa died to day, her response mine died when I was three. That was just an example we don't really talk family until we are super comfortable around you.

Nash's P.O.V.
            Well I would say I'm one of the most shitty brothers ever. I almost got my sister killed. Bringing that psychopath into her life. The worst part was the fact that I never knew. Not for a minute could I have thought "perfect" Kostia would hate my sister any of them. And she resented her for our closeness. I mean I get her family never was close but to hate and single out one of my family members out of jealousy is just not okay. I hate the fact that she faked being ok just so I could be happy. She sacrificed so much for me just because she loved me. I feel sick, in pain, sorrow. I'm angry with myself, Shawn for also not seeing it, and Kostia for causing all the ache in our family.

           I look over at my friend pale faced and shaking. I can't tell if it's from anger, sadness, or both. I can see him kicking himself for not seeing it either I think it's why I haven't been hard on him because he feels as guilty as I do. I know he's not but I just want to blame him so badly. Before I realize it it's time to pick Cam up and hide her phone. I'm pretty sure Kenzie is going to hide it in a coat of hers and ask to borrow it then play it off like she just found it. I hope that goes well.

           I have saved everything to a flash drive and we are sending it to the police chief tomorrow. There's no way I'm letting Kostia get away with this. I could totally see her trying to get off with an insanity plea or something. But this evidence is damning. We were told the evidence from her home and electronics were enough to seal the deal but more can never hurt. The lawyer said they weren't likely to give a plea but she's good at manipulation.  But this also shows premeditation.
