Kids In The Dark

I am left

Laylas POV

I woke to my phone ringing loudly. I got up to quickly answer it. "Hello?" I can hear sobs on the other end. "Are you okay? Who is this?" No answer. "My baby's gone," I heard the woman's voice breaking as she spoke. "My Alesan's gone," She said almost whispering. "Alesan? What happened to her?" I asked concerned. Is this Alesans mother? But wasn't she kicked out? I'm so confused. "She- come to her house," She sobbed. Alright, i'll head over now," I said before hanging up the phone. I grabbed a teal tank top and black ripped jeans. I grabbed a black leather jacket since it'll probably be cold. I grabbed my phone and keys and stuffed them into my jacket pockets. I guess I should tell Ashly I'm going somewhere so she doing freak pout when she finds me missing. "Ashly!" I yelled waiting for her to yell back. Nothing. Guess she's asleep? I walked to the kitchen and realized there isn't anything for me to put a note on. I knocked on her door. Nothing. "Ashly?" She would't be asleep at eleven. She stays up way later than that I know it. I opened the door and screamed. "Ashly!" I screamed as tears formed in my eyes. Her corpse laid in her bed with a knife plunged into her chest. Blood spilling out of her. Her eyes were slowly blinking, she's not dead yet! I grabbed my phone and called for an ambulance. I texted whoever called me earlier and told her I had to go somewhere and that I'd be over there when I can. I didn't get a response, oh well. After half an hour a doctor came out with a sour face. "I'm sorry for the words that I'm about to say," No. She had to of survived. She's always been a fighter. "I'm sorry for your loss," He said quietly. Tears streamed down my face. "No!" I yelled as I tried to get into the room. I pushed doctors and nurses out of the way and tried to get to my best friend. After a couple of minutes of trying to break through to get o her security came and took me out of the hospital. "Please miss, stay calm," One said to me holding my arms back. "No! She's my best friend! She will fight back through this! She's okay!" I yelled attempting to escape them but failed yet again. After a couple hours I finally drove home. I cried until I ran out of tears. I sat in the corner of my room with a bottle of water hugging my knees. After an hour I finally stopped. I grabbed my phone and saw who I'm assuming is Alesans Mother text me asking if I was coming. I told her that something happened and I might end up coming tomorrow. After a few seconds she responded saying she needs me over now. I told her to give me a few minutes and I'll leave for Alesans house. I grabbed my keys again and a tissue box. I whipped my eyes and cleaned up the mascara that was rolling down my cheeks. I redid my make up then left. I got to Alesans house and saw a few cop cars. I have to deal with the cops tomorrow anyways for Ashly. I got out of my car and walked towards the door and that's when an officer stopped me. "Hello miss, are you Layla?" He asked me and I nodded. "I'll bring you inside and then you might know why we called on you," He opened the front door and motioned me inside. I nodded and walking in to see a few people crying inside and many cops inside as well. I was brought to where Alesans room is. "Before you go inside, we have not cleaned anything yet and you might be a bit bothered by what you are about to see," He warned me. I nodded. He opened the door. I walked in and saw the same scene from this morning, a knife stabbed into Alesan, dry blood all over. The only big difference is the blood on the wall. It was a message. 'Hello Layla. This is what happens when you betray me' I know who did this, to both of them. "Sebastian will pay," I said through gritted teeth. "Do you know who did this?" The officer asked. "My stupid ex," I said loud enough for him to hear. "Really?" He asked. "He was very abusive, and I'm pretty sure he's the one who killed my best friend too," a tear rolled down my cheek. "What's his name and address?" The cop asked. "Sebastian Halowenco, *random address* I'd bring you there but I can't," I told him. "Why can't you bring us there?" He asked. "I ran from there a few weeks ago. I refuse to go back to the place that took me years to escape," I answered. He nodded and we went back outside the house. "You may go, we will have a cop there to watch you just in case," He brought me to my car and I nodded. "Hello, I'm Terenz, I'll be hanging around your house to make sure you're alright until this is all over," He informed.
