*pov of Oliver*
I was suddenly rattled awake. My eyes flew open and tears started to stream down my eyes. "Where's Daisy? I need Daisy!" I started to yell like a mad man.Chris grabbed my " Calm down! Are you okay? She will be here soon." I started to hyperventilate," she's dead I saw her die. Is she okay?" Chris raised his eyebrow," Man that was a dream. She's alive and fine, calm down you have a concert in like half an hour." I nodded and got up and changed.
Next thing I knew Daisy ran in and looked terrified. I basically suffocated her in my arms when I saw her walk in. "Oli....my love.....I can't breath." She squeaked out. I let go and scratched the back of my neck. "Sorry I just uh missed you." She rolled her eyes.
"5 minute warning!" The teacher yelled. Daisy sat down and put a hand through her hair. "Are you excited?" I asked sarcastically "I can't practically see your excitement." She glared daggers at me.
We got on stage and we were introduced. The music started and I began to sing. Daisy joined in for her part and sounded beautiful.
Soon it was over and the crowd roared their approval, Daisy had a look of both relief and terror. I smiled.
Daisy ran off the stage. I followed her into the chorus room. It was pitch black. "D-Daisy?" I got a bad feeling, it was just a dream.
Strawberry lips crashed into mine melting away all the worry. I smiled into her lips and she smiled into mine.
*pov of Daisy*
I pulled away from Oliver. "We did it! They loved it!" I smiled in the darkness. I could feel Oli smiled and shake his head. He kissed the top of my head and wrapped his arms around me.
Suddenly our little cuddle fest was interrupted by voices coming from outside. It must be over, how long had we been standing here?
Oli grunted," I guess we should go see our friends. But we will need to talk about that little celebration after."
We were greeted by our friends, Chris, Elizabeth, Melanie, Mark, Matthew, and Grace as well as Mary who attacked me with a hug but quickly went to talk to her family. Grace basically just said I did amazing and left. She was sincere but not much of a talker.
I was talking with Melanie when suddenly I was lifted off the ground. What the actual fuck is this? "Whoever you are put me down!" I demanded. "Oh I'm sorry Daisy I'm just so happy you did amazing!!" Tyler let out gently outing me down.
I spun around and playfully glared at him. He blushed, "sorry if I scared you." I shook my head," it's fine since you're new but next time watch out or I'll get ya." I put up my fist and we both laughed. "I'm so scared!" He put his hands on either side of his face and opened his mouth.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned around to see Melanie," hey we are going to that little 24 hour diner and I was told to inform you." She looked at Tyler "who's that?" She asked. I grabbed Tyler and pulled him beside me" this is Tyler he is new, like today is his first day new." He let out a small smile. "Hey Tyler I'm Melanie, but call me Mel."
"Tyler you are coming with us to the diner and I'm not taking no as an answer." I said he rolled his eyes,"but your friends seem kinda scary." I laughed, but he was serious. I looked over at them. Everyone was dressed in dark clothes aside from Matthew wearing a light blue button down shirt. I could see where he was coming from but he's still going.
-----flash to the diner-------
"Daisy oh my God you didn't tell me Tyler was so funny!" Elizabeth half yelled. I could tell Tyler was hitting it off with my group, looks like we have a new member. I smiled at the thought, we made someone feel welcomed.Our food came and everyone was quiet with content. I ordered a garden salad while everyone else got burgers and stuff like that. Oliver snorted," geez Daisy you need to live a little." I raised an eyebrow oh really?" I stole a French fry from him. "Someone call the police, we got a rebel over here." Tyler said. The whole table laughed.
Soon it was time to go everyone left leaving me and Tyler alone. "So where do you live? I can help bring you there if you want." He smiled at me and nodded," I live on Thurston street." That was only a 5 minute walk from the diner not bad at all.
We got to his house and I said goodbye and started home, "Hey Daisy!-" I stopped and walked back to him." Thanks for being so welcoming to me, I have friends already!" He was beaming. "Of course! Everyone should feel welcomed when they move to a new place." Suddenly he pulled me into a hug. "Well see ya at school shorty." I shook my head and began my walk home.
I lived about a 45 minute walk away, I really need a car but hey my legs are incredible from all this walking. I got home and saw my mom still isn't home, shocker.
I got inside and took a shower, I heard a bang but didn't think much of it. I got dressed in an oversized t shirt and short shorts, my house is always so hot.
I walked out of the bathroom and saw a broken window, my heart stopped. I heard rustling and low deep voices in my house. I walked to the kitchen slowly and grabbed a knife, which I probably wouldn't even be able to use.
I made my way to the bathroom but saw a shadowy figure go inside. I slid into the kitchen and hid behind the counter, fuck what am I going to do.
"Hey Marc I think someone is here, a girl." I heard a voice echo. "Mmm i think I can smell her." I felt hot tears stream down my face, why does bad shit happen to me.
Suddenly two big hands grabbed me and I let out a yelp. "Found our girl Marc! She's a beaut and young, just the way I like them." I tried to break free," let me go asshole, take whatever you want please don't hurt me." "Awww is someone a little scared? Don't worry I'll take care of you." The one called Marc caressed my face.
Next thing I knew I was tied up and on the ground. "I feel like you may be a little hot let me help you there." He grabbed my shirt and I kicked him in the privates. "Fucking bitch! Now you're gonna get it." He swung at me and I tasted blood. What is going to happen to me.
