He Stares Back

Chap. 52: I Want What You Have

*picture of Blair Montgomery Above with dyed hair*

       The air in Drysdale is cold, windy. Rain pours down on the city, causing more flooding in the city streets. It has been four hours since Emily had been dropped off at the airport. She was ushered away to the city to prevent her sneaking back on the jet.

Emily's converse splashes through the small river on the sidewalk. She shivers, her heart aching. Christian left her with no money and only the clothes on her back. The brunette crosses her arms, trying to keep warm. Emily has no money, no job, no shelter, and she doesn't have Christian.

          He's such a motherfricking liar! Emily thinks to herself as she hurries to try and find shelter for the night. I hope that when he comes to his senses and wants me back, I'll be dead and he'll be the only one to blame!

          Deep inside, the brunette doesn't truly believe that. She doesn't want to hurt Christian. Emily just wants to go back and change what happened, but she knows she can't.

        Up ahead, Emily sees an alleyway. She hurriedly runs through the water to see if she can take shelter beside a dumpster. As she starts to turn inside the alleyway, something hits her on the back of the head.

Laughter causes Emily to jolt awake. Her eyes lazily flutter open, feeling dizzy. She sees two figures a few feet away from her.

"What...What..." Emily shuts her eyes tightly, brows furrowed in pain.

"Hello, Sunshine." A familiar voice says.

Emily's open suddenly open wide, her head jerking up. "Brody?"

"Hey Emily." He says darkly, "Nice of you to pop in."

Emily's vision begins to clear. She can see Brody and a dark haired woman standing beside him. She stares at the woman in confusion.

"Who...Why are you doing this? Where am I?" Emily looks around frantically.

All around her is dark. Windows of the night sky shine above her. She's bounded up in a metal chair.

The dark haired woman suddenly raises her hand to Brody. Gunfire fills the air. Emily screams, her heart racing.

"Didn't need that bastard anymore." The dark haired woman chuckles as she walks closer to Emily.

In the moonlight, Emily can begin to make out her face. The brunette's face goes white as a ghost, her mouth and eyes widening.

"Blair?" Emily says in shock, thinking of a way out. "You dyed your hair."

"Mmm, yes." Blair flips her hair, "Do you think Christian will like it? I dyed it just for him."

Emily shrugs, her hands shaking behind her back. "You were gorgeous as a blonde."

Blair lifts her gun angrily to the ceiling. "And yet, Christian still has a thing for brunette's."

Oh God. Chills run up and down Emily's spine, Is she trying to somehow copy me? Why?

"Can you please explain to me why you kidnapped me?" Emily says unevenly.

"Because, Emily East, I have loathed you the moment Christian screamed out your name during our amazing sex!" Blair grits her pearly white teeth, "He dumped me because I was too blonde! Can you believe that? Cause I was too blonde! How shallow!"

"Then why did you kidnap me instead of Christian?" Emily can hear her heart in her ears.

"Because," Blair puts the gun to the die of Emily's head "I want what you have!"

Emily shakes her head. "I don't have anything! I'm broke!"

"No!" Bale screams at her, hitting Emily across the face with the gun. "I want what Christian wants. I want what he sees in you!"

Emily shakes her head again. "There's nothing he wants from me anymore! He hates me!"

Blair lifts the gun to the side and shoots the floor. Emily screams in terror.

"Christian and I would have been the hottest power couple in all of Drysdale...if you hadn't of already been in the picture!" Blair sticks the gun between Emily's eyebrows. "Tell me what is so damn special about you! Even stupid Brody was bitching about how adorable you were!"

Emily's body trembles with fear. "There's absolutely nothing special about me...I'm just another one of the sluts he could get his hands on."

Blair pulls the gun to the side and shoots he floor once again. Emily screams louder in terror. The rich girl puts the gun back to between Emily's eyebrows.

"Bullshit!" Blair says angrily, "Tell me why Christian is so hung up on you!"

Emily sobs, her body visibly shaking. "You can have him Blair! I don't want him!"

"Why!" Blair screeches angrily, hitting Emily harder with the gun.

Emily sobs loudly as tears stream down her face. "There's nothing special about me!"

Suddenly, shots are fired from a distance. Blair falls to the ground, her gun falling a few feet away from her. Emily stares down at her body in horror. Hurried footsteps echo in the building.

"Emily, are you okay?" A familiar voice says.

The brunette turns to see a familiar blonde standing there with her gun pointing at Blair. Kaley Fields.

All the fear Emily felt melts away at the sight of her best friend. "Kaley! Oh thank God! Thank you, Jesus!

"Yeah, yeah." Kaley quickly unties Emily, "Don't thank me just yet."

Once free from her bounds, Emily hugs her best friend. Her body trembles as she grips the blondes body.

"Thank you, Jesus!" Emily cries out loudly, "Oh thank you, Lord!"

Kaley grabs the brunette's hand, pulling her along as they run out of the building.

The cool air outside nearly knocks the wind out of Emily. Kaley rushes to a dark van, opening the slide door. Emily immediately rushes inside. The blonde shuts the door. The brunette hugs her best friend again.

"How did you know where to find me?" Emily says with a sad smile, sniffing.

Kaley looks behind Emily with a grim expression. As Emily follows her friends eyes, something hits her over the head again.
