Taken Over by Fear

Veronica's pov
I was staying home from school today for obvious reasons, but Archie was staying to, to watch after me because my mom is doing major campaigns. I told him I'm fine, but he insisted that he'd stay and got the school to excuse him.

My father of course was away in business wherever, like usual. No one not even my mom knows where he goes anymore. But at least I have my Archiekins.

I woke up and smelt something burning. I walk out into my kitchen and see Archie attempting to try to make me food. "It's really cute you tried to do this for me Arch, but we all know you can't cook." He looks defeated, and I feel kinda bad. So I walk over to him. "Hey at least you tried to put an effort in." I kiss him. Then right then an idea popped in my head.

I stop kissing him right out of no where. "Ronnie?" I look at my dads office door and smile back at Archie. "No no no no. Absolutely not." He tells me. "It wouldn't hurt to look Archie." I slowly make my way to his office. "Move that pot." I tell Archie once he gets up by me. "Why should I?"

"Because if I do I could hurt myself. And if you're not going to move the pot I will." I pulled out the I just got shot and had major surgery card. Not a real thing, but just go with it. "Oh come on that's not fare." I shrug my shoulders and smirk at him. He bends over and moves the potted plant. He then grabs the key underneath it and hands it to me. I don't know why daddy hasn't changed the plaza of his key hiding spot.

We walk into the office and I take a look around. I sit in the chair for my dads desk right under that creepy painting of me. I can't get the drawer open though. "Archie do you have a bobby pin or something." I ask him absentmindedly. "Yeah Veronica I'm Betty who has a blonde ponytail." I roll my eye at him. I then see a letter opener and grab it off the desk.

I get the drawer open. "Betty would be so proud of me." I mumble to myself. Archie laughs at me a little. I then pull out a contract. Then behind the contract has multiple pictures of me. "Oh my god." I can't actually believe what I'm seeing right now. "What is it Ronnie?"

"My father, Hiram Lodge. Tried to murder me, and you're Dad is next. He comes over to me fast and takes the letter and pictures out of my hand. "All this time I thought he was with me, when really he was plotting my murder."

"I knew to much, I wasn't part of the bigger picture. He also doesn't want me to persuade my mom on anything either. So he was going to cut me out." I sit there and try to process what I'm saying, but I just can't comprehend. Then I search through more stuff and things are just getting worse and worse as I go. But still not as bad as my plotted murder fail.

"Archie we need to call the police." He nods and pulls out his phone. "And your mom." I nod right back at him. The phone rings and rings. Then at the worst possible time ever I start to hear the door getting unlocked. I end the call. "Archie get out." I whisper. I take pictures of the documents and pictures. Archie's waiting me waving at me to hurry up.

I finish up then get out as quickly as possible, but I can't run I might rip stitches. I lock the door back up. Then Archie puts it back and runs back to my room. I try to make it back to my room, and all I hear is footsteps coming closer and closer. Then finally it catches up to me. "Mija."

I turn around slowly, to only see my mom. "What on earth are you doing." I look at her in relief. "Mom you need to come with me." She follows me back into my bedroom, where we meet Archie. "What is going on with you two?" I look at Archie then back at her.

"My shooting was not a stranger mom. It was Dad, he hired the black the hood. It was him the whole time Archie to now me." I hand her my phone and she scrolls through the pictures.  I can tell when she finished looking. She engulfed me into a hug. Then I finally cried.  "Archie called the police. They should be here any moment." I tell her.

She then looks at me and Archie in terror. "Your father should be here at any moment." My eyes widen as my body gets taken over by the fear that Dad might beat the police here and all hell might break lose.

No ones pov
The 3 of then sat on the couch. All in fear of what might show up at the Pembrokes door. Veronica was the most terrified out of all of them. Though Archie held her in his arms like she was a child. It made her feel a little better, but still the fear of what her fate was still over took her.

She felt paralyzed. Hermione felt like a monster letting her daughters shooter into the house. Archie felt like he had let Veronica down. All of them had felt something different, but all had fear taken over. Archie could feel Veronica shake. He looked over and saw Hermione as stiff as stone.

The foot steps they had heard, made them all turn heads towards the door. Veronica started shaking harder as the footsteps got louder. Hermione has locked the chain on the door before they had sat. So whoever was here needed to knock. And they did. Hermione slowly made her way to the door, and looked out the peep hole. The whole time she had kept a blank face so she wouldn't make the kids feel a certain way.

As she unlocked the door no one even breathed. She open the door and the kids were terrified to see who it was...

So here's this garbage. Who do you think is behind the door? Hope you enjoyed. And like always remember to comment and vote(:
