Hooded (Slow Updates)

Chapter 4

Why am I so stupid? Hunter has been my best friend for two years and now I’ve ruined because I was selfish. All because I was jealous of, well… Me.

I am so stupid. Stupid to think that one little meaningless song is going to change anything.

“Granny? How did you and grandpa meet?” I asked my granny who was sitting on her recliner and knitting.

“Well we were best friends, much like you and Hunter are-“

“Were.” I corrected her.

Her smile faltered but still remained as she told the story.

“Best friends. That was all we were and I was tired of getting friend zoned so I told him I had feelings for him and he proposed on the spot.” Granny was off in her own little world. Tears in her eyes and a smile on her face.

“Granny, I’m sure he still loves you and is watching from heaven.” I stroked her arm softly, tears of my own blurring my vision.

“I know dear, I know.”

“Granny? What should I do? To tell you the truth, I’m in love with Hunter. I can’t tell him my feeling though. Last time I tried to do something nice for him to show how much I care, he didn’t particularly appreciate it.” A gloomy feeling took over me.

“Well dear, that boy doesn’t know what he is missing out on.” She told me with a sad smile.

“He’s never going to love me, is he Granny?” I ask her, my voice wavering slightly.

“I don’t know Cacia, but he would be stupid not to.”

“I’m going to go to my room now Granny. I will see you later.”

“Okay dear.”

I headed up the stairs to my room at Granny’s house.

I picked up my phone off the bedside table to check my messages.

37 missed calls from hunter.

20 missed calls from Xavier.

3 missed texts from Lu.

I opened the texts from Lu.

‘Hey wanna come to a party 2nite? U need 2 get out.’

‘Come partying with us’

‘Gurl? You gon come partying with us?’

I replied with a yes.

I need to get out. Get drunk and have some fun.

Just forget about everything for a night.

I headed to the wardrobe and pulled out a dress that Granny bought me a year ago. (Yes, she is encouraging me to go clubbing -.- how responsible.)

It’s a tight, strapless black dress.

Simple but sexy.

After doing my makeup, I headed down stairs.

“Granny I am going out with some friends.” I told her as I slipped my phone in my bra. (A/N: I advise you not to put your phone in your bra or anywhere near your boobs as it send of radiation and can cause breast cancer.)

“Oh my. Dear you look beautiful. All the guys will be wrapped around your finger tonight.” She smiled proudly.

“Okay see you tomorrow Granny, I will probably stay at a friends’ house tonight.”

“Okay dear, have fun.”

“I will Granny.” I kissed her cheek and headed out the door.

I got into my Granny’s car. (Mine is still at my house.)

I drove to the address that Lu texted me.

-------------------

When I reached my destination and I could feel the beat of the music through my body.

I’m going to forget then regret.

That’s how it works.

I walked in through the doors and immediately felt hot and claustrophobic.

Bodies moulded together and swayed to the music.

Couples were making out in corners and people were staggering around.

“Acacia! Over here. We are doing shots! You want in?” Lu shouted from the other side of the room.

I walked over to where they were and started downing the shots.

-----------------

Pretty soon my words were slurring and I couldn’t see straight.

“Oh look! There is a hot guy. I’m going to go talk to him.” I told no one in particular, as no one was sober enough to listen.

I stumbled over to where the hot guy was standing.

“Hiiiii.” I slurred.

“Hello darling, you lookin’ for some fun.” He smirked at me.

“Yes I am having fun, thanks for asking.” I giggled.

“Follow me, I will show you some real fun.” He grabbed my hand and led me upstairs.

“Where are we going? I don’t want to go upstairs.” I started struggling against his hold.

“Come on princess. Just a few more steps.” He said through gritted teeth as he dragged me to a door.

“Help! Somebody Help!” I screamed as he locked the door behind us.

“Nobody can hear your screams, princess.” His whispered, his breath tickling my neck.

“Help! Please! Somebody help!” I sobbed out.

The guy started pulling at my dress.

“No. Please don’t.” I cried.

The door slammed open and standing there was a very pissed off Hunter.

“How dare you treat her like that!” He shouted.

Hunter shoved the guy up against the wall and started laying into him.

“Never *punch* touch *punch* her *punch* again!”

The guy was laying on the floor now covered in blood and bruises.

Hunter turned to me. “Acacia-.”

I ran out the door before he could say anything to me, sobs escaping my mouth uncontrollably.

I ran straight to my car and turned on the ignition. I know I shouldn’t have been driving since I am intoxicated but I needed to get away. (A/N: NEVER DRINK DRIVE)

I drove straight home, put on my pj’s and got into bed.

------------

I woke up with a pounding headache as the sun burned my eyes.

Yep. Regret.

A/N: Hey. okay srry that this is short but im tired. Can't wait for holidays.

X.x

K bye.

Vomment.

Xx
