Clarie's pov
"Ashley this is the third store we've been to can't we just pick a dress and leave already"
Ashley waved me off "we need perfect dresses"
Even Emma was tired of the whole idea already. She walked to another rack of dresses and as she was glancing through she found what she loved
"oh my gosh" she gaped "I love this" she said holding a pair of black pants in one hand and a grey long sleeved top that had a big snow flake on the center "this is totally my style" she examined the top
Seriously I don't see Emma like someone who will go to prom in a dress or get married in a long white dress and heels
She's more of pants and short dresses
"no way" Ashley said with widened eyes
"Emma it's a Christmas dance not an Halloween party"
Emma rolled her eyes "no one is stopping me from wearing this"
As they both argued my eyes caught something. A short red net dress. I picked it and examined it. It was armless and lovely dress not too dressy just simple as
"I'm taking this" I announced to my friends
They both turned to my direction
"it seems you're the only one without a dress Ashley" Emma clarified
"I want something perfect" she said scanning through the rack of dresses
"just pick one Ashley it's a Christmas dance just like the one we attended last time"
"a ha!" Ashley exclaimed "this is the one" she took a long white dress that had tiny stones all over
Great she finally picked one
We left the store about an hour later after picking shoes and went to eat lunch
"we should meet at your place tomorrow" Ashley said chewing on her hotdog
"yeah whatever" it slipped out without my consent
Sine we got to the restaurant I've had this bad feeling. I don't know what it's about, dreadfully not yet
"OK what's up with you" Emma stated
"I don't know, I have this knot in my chest" I said rubbing my chest "I guess I just feel uneasy because Chris hasn't done anything yet"
"yet!, you should be glad he came to his senses and not wish for him to hurt you" Ashley said
"it's not that, you don't get it"
"if you explain I might get you" Ashley said with full concentration
"each time he looks at me... It's always with so much intensity Like... Like he were a... He looks at me like he wants to do something but is waiting for the right time to strike, like a two faced person"
Like a psychopath... I know because I watch thriller movie
"one word and that's psychopath" Emma clarified like she just solved an obvious problem
"I was thinking of that but..."
"I read once that psychopaths have multiple characters and if Chris is like that, like a normal teenage boy on the outside but is a psychopath on the inside then... "
Ashley said before waving her hands to both of us to lean in. Emma and I both leaned In and listened in full concentration
"that means Chris must have suffered a trauma of something of such when he was little" she said finally and just the thought of it made my heart start racing. It was like the knot in my chest just got tighter
People don't know what Chris is capable of like we do and that's bad
I raked my hand through my hair and heaved a sigh
More like a shaky scared sigh
"it's OK, we'll sort this out" Emma said and I just snapped
I got tired of people telling me that
"I don't need consolation I need this to stop!" I yelled
"Clarie calm down " Ashley said softly
" No I can't
Don't you get it, it's all my fault and I'm tired of being the cause of all these of you all being at risk, I can't just go on getting ready for some party when I know Chris would be there and he might hurt you this shit is real ok! And it doesn't need me to calm down!" I yelled like an hysterical nut job and this time I got a few people's attention
I didn't care at all about that
All I cared about was for this to end
***
I released my firm hold on my stirring and bit the thumb nail of my other hand
"I guess you cooled off already" Emma started but I still kept my gaze on the road
"you know you just can't lash out like that
You need to get your shit together and stop blaming yourself"
"seriously I thought we were real friends" I saw Ashley shaking her head through the mirror "if we were you won't be chocking yourself with all of this you know
You'll let us handle it together"
"did you think you were going to get all the fun in smacking that bastard hard alone" Emma said forcing a smirk on my face
"we stand together get that straight
A problem for one is a problem for all that's how we do things ok" Emma said reassuringly
I nodded attentively like I was talking notes even though I wasn't looking at her
After I dropped them both off and I was heading back home I wasn't still able to get him out of my head
I was so worried my eyes only saw I was about to hit a truck but my brain didn't register it till the resounding sound of the trucks horn snapped me out
I swiped to the left making my tires skid all the way through till I moved out of his way
I could hear him curse though my winded up windows as I drove past him
I wasn't even in the right mind to wave at him that I was sorry I just zoomed off
He's really getting to me and if I don't "get my shit together" I'll end up having an accident in this same car he threatened to kill I and Eiden in... Only that I'll be the only one In the accident
It's going to be really hard to put up a real smile tomorrow... Demm I think I have a migraine already
The second I got to my room I took off my boots and hand gloves and went straight to my bed where I removed the scarf I put around my neck
