***WARNING: SCENES OF SEVERE VIOLENCE UP AHEAD! VERY GRAPHIC AND GRUESOME!! SORRY SIS, BUT YA'LL VOTED B LMAO***

Clementine hurriedly searches for Emily in her contacts, pressing the button to call her once she was found. 

She pulls on her black leather jacket and holds the ringing phone up to her ear. Sandwiching the phone between her cheek and shoulder, she ties the shoelaces to her black Nike 97 Air Max trainers. She had completely changed her outfit; now dressed in black high-waisted jeans, a black vest crop top, her jacket and expensive trainers. She needed to wear darker clothing in order to stay relatively hidden. 

She leaves her messy curls unattended to and quickly glances in the mirror as her old best friend picks up her phone. 

"Hey Clem, is everything okay?" her sweet voice tugged at Clem's heartstrings, she definitely missed her best friend. But she needed to cut to the chase. 

"Where are you right now?"

"I'm at Ed's house, why? Are you coming to visit me?!" she almost screeches in excitement, making Clem wince and back the phone away from her ear until she finished speaking. 

"Go into a different room so you're alone." 

The serious tone in her voice made Emily nervous, therefore does as she instructs. Clem hears her tell a believable excuse to her boyfriend before she leaves and enters an empty room. 

"Okay done, what's up?"

"Where is Mason?" she asks with no sense of hesitation in her tone. 

There was a pause.

"..What did you just say?" she couldn't quite believe what the brunette girl was asking. She was aware of the severe abuse that Clementine suffered from Mason, because she was the only person that Clem would go to. 

So why would she want to see him again?

"Em, please. I need to know where he is so I can talk to him," she did intend to talk to him, however she couldn't ignore the large possibility that something else would happen too.

"Why do you want to see him anyway? Surely you'd want to stay as far away from him as possible?"

"He stabbed my boyfriend on our date night. I need to talk to him," Clem grimaces as the scene replays in her head once more. Emily sighs over the phone and there are a few beats of silence lingering in the air before she speaks again. 

"Alright fine, I don't know exactly where he is though. All I know is that he went down to around your area, he's staying at a friend's apartment."

Clem was not surprised that she didn't mention the scarring occurrence with Louis, she knew that Emily only cared about people close to her. She didn't know Louis, therefore she didn't care.

"Ed is his best friend, could you ask him?" she nibbles her nails as she spoke. It was a dangerous risk asking Ed about the whereabouts of Mason, he could easily give the girls' plan away to him. But Clem needed to find him.

"You're lucky I love you, you know!" she whispers and puts her phone into her back pocket, the call still continuing. Clementine puts the phone on speaker so she could hear their muffled voices clearer. 

She hears small footsteps then a door opening, moments later there's a loud soft landing sound - most likely the phone being sat on. There are two identifiable voices on the other end: Emily and Ed.
