Babysitting the Bad boy

part 19 ~ Drugged by the enemy

why was Joe wearing a red rose? Was he part of their group?!

Brooke's pov :

"Hey Alec, I'm just gonna get a drink." Alecs arm unravels from my body and relaxes once I have left. I walk to a table where loads of bottles of beer and vodka stand, I pour my self a cup. How am I going to tell Alec? If I tell him that Joe , might  be a member of the Roses he's gonna freak!

I try my best to look for Amelia but no luck, where could she be? The night begins to darken and the beach becomes more empty the further I walk. I come upon a rock where I hear loud talking. I kneel down on the sand and try and hide my body as much as possible. All of a sudden a large hand grips onto my bare shoulder. I turn around quickly and relax as I see its only Alec.

Alec's pov:

As I see Brooke turn around all I wonder is, what is she doing? she pulls me down to the floor and I crouch on the sand. She puts a finger on her lushes lips and points at the people on the other side of the rock. It was the Roses.

They had set up some type of small beach party or a tiny festival, whatever it was, it didn't look good. Suddenly, a tall girl whose appearance wasn't the best, steps up onto a badly built stage. she was shouting so loud it was hard to not understand what she was saying.

"Hello everyone! So glad you could make it. Now as you know, we have. a new member to our little group."

She clicked her fingers and there she was, Amelia stepped out of the corner. Brooke stood up and was about to run towards Amelia, but I pulled her back down. "Brooke, we have to find out more, we will save Amelia, don't worry." She sat back down in the same position and carried on to spy.

Brooke's pov:

I take my phone from my tiny clutch bag and put it on mute. I needed to record this, like I did when I was spying on Stephanie. But instead of the camera, I accidentally pressed Snapchat. In my memories, a picture that was in my recents stunned me. The girl who supposedly was the leader of the Roses was in my memories? OMG, I remember now! When me and Alec were in Stephanie Portche's backyard on Halloween investigating, there was a girl that told Stephanie that she wouldn't do anymore dirty work for the group. She was the girl that was on the back of the cheerleading leaflet that Courtney handed me, Vanessa Welters!

After I explained everything to Alec, the roses were rambling on about stupid ceremony stuff then about a sacrifice. My eyes widened, Amelia is the new girl so she will mostly be the sacrifice!

Alec's pov:

After half an hour the Roses meeting was over and they had taken a quick break before the sacrifice so they could prepare the 'tools' needed. Brooke and I decided to split up so we could search more grounds. She took the shore and I took the party ( mainly because I didn't want guys talking or touching her!)

As I was walking circles around the beach, trying to find clues, I noticed Amelia. The pupils in her eyes were huge and she was just staring into space, her body was stiff and even though she had fake tan on, she was incredibly pale. It was almost as if she was, drugged?

Brooke's Pov:

As I searched the shore, I was unable to find anything. The night was getting cold, and the further I got from the party, the further I got from the warm bomb fire. I could barely see anything. I grabbed my phone and turned the torch on. I shined the bright light on the sand and notice a lump. I kneeled down and cleared the sand away. It was a book, a really heavy one.

The front cover read Welters roses drug company. The Red Roses are a drug dealers?! I stood there stiff in shock. They are using Amelia to test drugs! This makes sense now, why kids in school are acting particularly zombie like?! I can't let Amelia be drugged by the enemy!

I ran back to the party and found Alec. He was also running? He probably had to tell me something.

"The Red Roses are a drug dealers!" we both screamed at each other. I guess that we both found out the same thing! I showed Alec the book and as he read though it I saw Amelia. Alec had told me that she looked drugged but I didn't think it was that bad. What have they done to my best friend?

Alecs pov:

A couple hours later of  chilling on the beach, the Roses gathered again and were heading to the cliffs overlooking the ocean. Brooke said she would go on the cliff and that I should stay down, looking for more clues. "No Brooke! Its too dangerous, I don't want you to get hurt!" She smiled and stroked her hand over my face, she has done that so many times, im not complaining! As I saw her climb up the cliff to save her one and only best friend, I just think to myself, she's amazing.

Brooke's pov:

As I reach the top, I see Amelia being held by two really big guys, maybe if she wasn't drugged she'd really be enjoying herself! Anyway! I take the book from under my arm and flip through the pages, but one was missing, the last page. I look up and see Vanessa holding it in her right hand but a Red Rose in the next. She's gonna kill Amelia! Before I knew it I was running, running for my best friend. Amelia was holding the rose now, about to eat it, when all of a sudden I snatched it out of her hand and ate it myself. I could hear Alec screaming in the background and Amelia looking down at me. I looked into her eyes and she looked into mine. I fell to the floor and felt as if I was going to die, I would die any day to save Amelia, any day.

A cold hand touched my arm, Amelia's. She smiled. Her eyes were back to normal. She screamed as she saw me lying on the floor. Alec was fighting to get to me, but the two guys wouldn't let him. Vanessa spoke. "Ughh, you idiot! You ate the rose then looked into the zombie girls eyes, you cured her you imbecile!"

I smiled, Amelia was cured! But I wasn't. Then out of no where Joe appeared. I was relived! He has come to save me. But instead he lifted me up and spoke. "Do you really think that a guy like me would ever fall for you? Well, as you were stupid enough to eat the rose you can't answer that, so I will. No. You are pathetic Brooke Clark! I only hung around you so that I could drug you! But now you have saved me the pleasure, your the new sacrifice. And im gonna through you off this cliff." He chuckled. My eyes closed shut. This was it for me. Or was it? Alec shouted. "She's mine! Get your grubby hands off her you pig!"And pushed Joe off the cliff onto the sand, where he fell onto a post which was a lit with fire from the party. It fell over causing a huge blaze. "Alec! make her eyes open and force her eyes too look into the fire! I remember when the Roses and I had our last "meeting" we were all allowed to read the book you and Brooke found, it explains all the cures in there!" Amelia shouted. Alec did as he was told.

I was saved, everyone was. I was so happy to have my best friend back. I hugged her so hard she could barely breath. Then, Alec held onto me and pulled me into a kiss.

"I love you Brooke Clark." He whispered. " I love you Alec Jones."

This is what I get for Babysitting a Bad boy!
