the hidden warrior

chapter 23

                **The next day**

                         (Grace's POV.)

My best friend Skylar said she had some news for me so I was going to meet her at our secret hideout.
So I showered and got ready.
I picked my fancy shirt with a pair of blue jeans,
Mom said I should talk with Nickolas but I haven't seen him since I told him to leave. And I'm glad he was never there for me plus he didn't even know about me, so how was I supposed to react to him just showing up.
I went out and locked the door behind me so nobody could take anything, number one person I'm thinking of is Nickolas.
(That's right I'm not calling him dad definitely not now)
I was almost there when I bumped into Jake
I looked at him
"Sorry" he said and he technically ran off
As if I wasn't going to follow him.
I snuck a few inches behind him,
He was going to were I think Roseanne lived
"THAT TWO TIMER"
I shouted and remembered I'm following someone so I hid behind a bush beside their house
I looked through the window staying low
And saw Jake kissing Roseanne on the cheek
Err she's dead
I thought to myself
I continued to look and saw an old woman walk through from the I think kitchen
She gave Jake a hug and welcomed them to their kitchen.
Why wasn't I invited??? I asked myself
Wait until Skylar hears about this two timer...
I ran to were I was supposed to meet her and saw her standing there
She had her arms crossed and was blowing a bubble with her gum.
"Bout time you like show up girl I have something to tell you that your not going to like"
She said while blowing another bubble
"What is it? tell me and I also have some things to tell you"
"Well Jimmy told John who told Richard who told Nick who told Eddy who told Sarah who told me... That Jake and Roseanne are boyfriend girlfriend" she said
(Yes gossip gets around but wow)
"WHAT? I saw him kissing her on the cheek just today that two timer and to think I excepted him to be my boyfriend. he will rule the day he cheated on me" I said with anger
"I don't like blame you girl go get back what was yours" Skylar said
If anyone knew about gossip it would be her
And that's why we're friends I love gossip.
"Thanks for the details Skylar I should get home to figure out what I'm going to do about Roseanne, that boyfriend stealing snake

              **When I got home**

I walked up to my door when I noticed the door ad been broke down. Great, either Nickolas came back or a stranger is in my house.
I pulled out my pocket knife and slowly entered
"Wh..wh.. who's there?" I mumbled out in fear
Although I tried to stay brave but it's hard when someone in your own home might kill you
"Wh..wh..who's there??" I asked louder
"I am" a creepy voice said in the shadows
"Wh..wh..who are you?" I asked confident
"Looky here a girl doesn't even know her own father" he replied
"Nickolas?" I asked in fear
"Father to you.. but yes" he replied once more
"I don't consider you as a father Nickolas" I added
"Shame I'll have to kill you then" he said pulling out a sword
"Great first Roseanne Green now you" I said in depress
"WAIT what did you say?" He asked
"Um maybe I don't like to repeat myself Nickolas" I said
Knowing he'd probably kill me
"What name did you call out child ANSWER ME U DON'T GOT ALL DAY" He screamed out
"NEVER" I shouted back.
He went to stab me but...
"Mom were have you been?" I asked
"You will not hurt our child Nickolas" she yelled in a sweet voice
"THIS SPOILED BRAT WON'T LISTEN TO A WORD I TELL HER" He added
"She doesn't even know you Nickolas, you just can't expect her to love a stranger" she added calmly
While she continued coming through the door with groceries
"I guess your right dear" he said and he put the door back on the hinges and went up to bed
"Need any help mom?" I asked while approaching her
"I think I got it dear" she replied
"Dinner will be done shortly" she added
"I can't wait I'm starving" I said
And walked up to my room to text my friends.
Things are going to be different now that there's a killer in our house and the killer is...my dad.
