Andrea's P.O.V:

"Mom, we are leaving." I inform her and a knowing smile.

 "Have a nice date." She winks. 

"Mom! It's not a date." I roll my eyes. "Just messing with you darling. Take care." She says kissing my cheeks.

 I get into the front seat. "Do you want Skylar to drive? You can sit there and you know...." he goes on smiling mad whilst I throw him death glares. "I'm going home if you won't stop yourself from saying stupidities."I say him and he giggles. 

"You got a plan?" he asks and I shrug. "May be Skylar... he must have found a place." I say absentmindedly. "so sure about him. I see..." Louis sighs. "Dumb head" I mutter. "I heard it cat." He pulls a sad face. "Sorry not sorry. Call Skylar and ask him whether he got something planned." I say him and Louis raises his eyebrows. 

"I'm driving. Call him. You have his number right? Oh! Of course you do!" The thought of calling him makes my heart race. I can't do it. "I can't do it. I'm not going to call him." I tell Lou. "You have to. C'mmon cat. Don't be shy." Lou says still smiling. "I'm not shy. Why should I be?" I defend. "Prove it then." "okay! I'll dial him and keep in open phone." Louis lifts his shoulder with a smirk.

I dial him and keep in open phone. It takes him three rings to pick up.

"Hey... andrea?"

"Speak" I mouth Louis. He suddenly strats coughing. Waving a hand that he showing he cant speak. What an actor.

"Andrea... you okay?" his voice concerned. I can picture in my mind. He must have his eyebrows knitted wondering. I gather courage and reply.

"Yeah I'm alright.. it's just Lou." Heat rises up my cheeks. I turn to look away so that Lou won't notice.

"I wanted to ... know.. whether you have any place planned ''

"OH MY GAWWDDD! Skylar! SHE IS AS RED AS TOMATO. HAHAHHA!" Lou screams in between while I kill him with my glares.

"eh.. he is.. just ignore! So, anywhere?"

"Actually.... Pet told me that he already discussed it with Lou. " that's when I noticed the innocent face of my pure brother.

"you know that my brother is dump. See you soon Skylar." I hung up just to turn towards Lou for an explanation , waiting for his mad laugh to get over with. "now! What the actual heck Lou ?"

"That was fun! You were exactly like a teenage dream girl talking to her crush.. no no .. lover boy... and he giggles again.

"you going to pay for this Lou! I swear!" I kept myself shut the entire drive letting him know my protest against his dirty trick.

" I'm Sorry.. really..." he begins. I knew he gave up the very moment. Yes!

" You should be." I maintain my serious face.

As we pulled in to the parking lot I realized we were in the Fair that has started two days back in our area.

"Whose idea?" I ask Lou and get a squared shoulder and and puffed up chest of pride. "your brother!" he says out proudly. "one thing Lou! At least one thing right. So, thanks." I reply and his jaw drops. "you are so damn rude."

"Influence from my one and only brother!" I say hugging him. He groans with a smirk playing on his happy face.

"you two! Hello there!" Peter waves and ruby walks towards me. "one more word today, shipping me with Skylar, I'm never going to talk to you" I whisper to him before they reach us.

"Hey Ruby! We pull each other for a hug. "

"this is Lou." I tell ruby and they share their greet.

"someone is .... Skylar, where is he?" All their eyes drift to me while I stand there like a lunatic out from prison wondering about the world. "what?" I raise my eyebrows. "skylar" Peter says. " How am I supposed to know?" I say.

Louis didn't speak. " you nerd, call him and ask!" Ruby elbows me . "why me?" Lou snickers at my response.

"you know what? I'm going to fetch us all tickets." Lou informs.

" Great, and.. Andrea wait up for Skylar to show up. He is probably a little late. Ruby want to come with me?" Peter on play.

"Andrea?" ruby nudges me. "I don't want to ruin your date! Go with him. Skylar will be here soon and we will meet you inside." I push her.

The need for a call was red lined. I dialed Skylar and he picked up

" Sorry! I'll be there in five mins." He answers.

"no problem. I'm here in the parking lot. Rest of the group got in already." I inform.

" oh okay! See you then."

We hang up.

I decided to scroll through my phone until he got here.

'Why don't you just kill yourself? Are you really going to stay like you don't see the hate around you? You are worth nothing Andrea. I remind you this everyday! YOU ARE NOTHING AND DESERVES NOTHING.

Love ,

Femina'

That's when I remember how it is. How my life is. I try to ignore the daily texts from femina... my long lost friend. All I do is read them, never reply. Once.... Once I did . I asked her to stop but she threatened me. Since then, the texts come around like daily facts served to me about my life.... And nobody knows.... Nobody should .....

"Andrea?" I realized Skylar tapping my shoulders and the reality came to me as a wave. I was shivering ... my eyes clouded. He can't see me like this. But I'm too numb to make a move. "Hey... you don't seem okay." His voice soothes me. His presence make me want to spill everything to him, I never felt this... not this need to pour me out completely. I try hard to stop the tear from slipping. "I'm cold... I guess I'm cold... I'm okay" I manage.

Skylars pov

I was all prepped up for the day but was running late. Andrea was waiting outside the lot. As I pulled up to the parking area I noticed Andrea straight away with her head down , engrossed into her phone. She wasn't smiling. Trembling... she was trembling....

I reached towards her. Something was wrong. She dint even notice me arriving or calling her. I tap her shoulders and I see her shivering. Something's wrong for sure.

"I'm cold... I'm okay." She replies and controls her trembles. "you need a jacket? Here..."

"No no... I'll be fine..." let's head inside. She regains herself, but that's fake.... Or ... she is covering up something .... And acting in front of us with a smile.

"Andrea ... you are not..." I begin racing her back as she paced to the gate.

"Skylar! I'm perfectly okay! Don't you see? Now follow me you slow snail." She replies and that was the key....

She is hiding something... after seeing her trembling and shivering back there and the girl acting in front of me as if that was a normal chill. Something is going on and nobody knows....

This day should be the door... to get through.
