The past two weeks had been extremely hectic. I had been going back and forth from my friend's houses due to the payment on my apartment falling through.
The job I currently have didn't have a steady enough income and I had been struggling.
I straightened the cap on my head, and re-checked the boxes I was holding, making sure the food was still hot.
I approached the house and once I reached the door, I knocked.
The door opened.
I met the eyes of the green eyed asshole that I hated more than chocolate.
Yes. I hate chocolate.
He smirked at me.
"Sam what the hell is this?" I asked, annoyed.
"I wanted pizza." He stated calmly.
I rolled my eyes at him.
"At the place I happened to work?"
We had a little staredown for a few seconds before he broke eye contact.
"Okay, okay I wanted to see you." He admitted quickly, running his hands through his hair.
The hair I used to run my hands through, the eyes I used to get lost in, the smile that made my legs week, the kiss that rocked my world.
He was my everything.
I handed him the boxes of pizza, and turned away and headed back for my car.
"Wait, wait wait!" He rushed out, following me. "Will you come in just for like - two minutes?"
I looked at his pleading eyes and contemplated.
After a second, I nodded slowly.
He smiled at me, a real genuine smile as he took my hand, leading me inside.
I'm going to get fired.
---------------------------------
I exited the house, smile on my face and excitement running through my veins.
Looking around me, I took notice of the dark sky.
I was in there for a while...
But..
We talked, and it was amazing.
I might just have my old boyfriend back.
I smiled at the thought of not being alone anymore. My heart was still shattered from the relationship that I had all those months ago.
Eight gruelling months...
For the first time in my life since her.. I am happy.
-----------------------------
"I'm home!" I called out, upon entering Cierra's house.
"Meow!" Cierra's cat practically yelled, bouncing towards the door.
Sometimes this thing acted like a dog.
I picked him up and kissed his head.
"Cici?" I asked.
I heard sound coming from the living room and assuming it was Cierra, I went into the room.
The T.V. was on, displaying an installment of one of the Harry Potter movies.
I smiled as I saw my best friend's head. I approached the couch, attempting to jump on it before I saw something else.
Someone else.
"Cierra!" I yelled.
I startled her.
And him.
I met the ocean blue eyes, similer to the ones I once adored.
I hadn't seen him in a while...
"Hey Avalon." He greeted normally.
I looked at him, confused.
He didn't hate me? For leaving his sister? Did he agree with my decision..
"Hey..." I trailed off awkwardly.
"I'm not my sister. You two may be on ice right now but it doesn't mean I can't talk to you." He sent me one of his charming smiles.
I really liked him for my best friend.
"Yeah. Well I'm going to head to bed." I announced, dragging my feet upstairs.
"Night B!" Cierra yelled.
I plopped down on my bed, face first and questioned my life.
It was about to get better.
Billie was probably happy, and now I am.
I decided that telling myself this wasn't enough. I needed to know she was okay.
I picked up my phone and began scrolling on my feed. Making a decision, I clicked on the account I hadn't been on in forever and scrolled around.
The feed seemed the same. Just pictures of her rocking out outfits from companies that sponsered her.
Until I saw the dreaded picture.
It was a picture of Billie and Giggle, holding eachother.
Comments were disabled, and I didn't bother checking for the caption.
Before I could break down, I closed off the tab.
A text rolled in.
Sammy
pick u up for lunch 2mrw <3
I smiled at the text, biting my lip.
Everything was going to be okay.
Ding. Dong.
It couldn't possibly be him. He would have told me... Right?
I smiled and rushed down the stairs like a kid on Christmas morning.
I opened the door and my mood deflated.
"H-hello officer." I greeted, not really knowing how to address them.
"Miss Hayes?" She asked, eyes scanning the area.
"That's me." I replied.
She looked a little conflicted before continuing, look hardening.
"You are a suspect for the murder of Gisele Parker. I am going to have to ask you to come down to the station to answer a few questions."
"What the hell is going on here!?" Cierra demanded, gesturing to the scene before her. Finneas stood there, lookibg just as confused.
I looked at them, tears now in my eyes.
"I-I don't know!" I said.
I don't even know who Gisele is! I don't understand what's happening!
"Call my mom!" I called out to Cierra, before I was pushed into the back of the car.

A/N

Anywho... thank you for reading, stay awesome and I love you! <3
