"What?" Nox felt cold shivers ran down her spine, tingling her in the most uncomfortable way as possible.
"KEN!"
"KEN! Come back!"
"What?"
"Back up a little bit."
It is actually another angle to show Ken. Nox gasps quietly, burying her lower face further into her loose sweater. "Crap, Ken. Leave your house..."
"What?"
"Don't look-- no!"
Ken froze, staring directly at the camera with a pair of widened eyes.
Then their call closed.
Nox breathed in the air she forcibly breathed out a while ago when intently watching Ken. She leaned her back again and stood up, grabbing her laptop and set it down on her lap when she went back on her bed.
"I just wanted this day to be as peaceful. Come on, baby. You can't be doing this to us."
A notification chimed from her Facebook.
Lawrence Barns: baby? Why aren't you talking to me?
Lawrence Barns: I'm here, love
Lawrence Barns: baby? Please talk to me.
Stray tears fell from her eyes, frustrated enough with this sick hacker using her boyfriend's account.
-stop using Lawrence's account, fucker. Leave my boyfriend be in peace.
Lawrence Barns: there's my baby.
Lawrence Barns: why would I stop using my account?
Lawrence Barns: im not in peace knowing that they haven't repented on their dark secrets.
"Fuck.. Oh fuck!" Her eyes widened when their group call went back on. Ken was blending his hand, literally, his hand was inside a working blender. "Fucking smoothie!"
She gagged, covering her mouth and wanted to puke out everything she ate from yesterday and earlier today.
"Ken!"
"Jess, shut the fuck up!"
"Guys, lock your doors. Nox?"
Nox pinched the bridge of her nose. "If ever this is Lawrence.. he has the fucking duplicate key to our apartment."
"Don't mess like that, Nox!"
"We witnessed two of our friends die, Blaire! Just like that, with no remorse at all."
Adam's yells, his lights turning off.
Billie227: Adam, shut up and sit down.
Billie227: I want to take out the trash
Billie227: do you remember the video?
They all raised a brow, "What video?"
All of their screen viewed a YouTube upload, titled 'LAWRENCE BARNS KILL URSELF'
"Yeah shit, I'll beat your ass!" Val's voice boomed
"Gonna beat my ass? Val's gonna beat my ass? Good girl Val is gonna beat up my ass, everybody!"
Nox's breathing went frantic, one hand raising to her mouth.
Leaky Lawrence... Kill URSELF
Nox let out a strangled yell, wanting nothing but to throw her laptop away. "I swear to god, whoever did this will fucking pay."
"Nox, Nox, calm down.."
It was the video that ruined her and Lawrence's life for good.
Billie227: they're all terrible people, baby
"It wasn't us, man."
"This isn't our fault."
Nox could only stare at the screen, speaking with much venom lacing her voice. "What did you guys do?"
"We didn't do anything, Nox!"
"I swear, Nox. We don't know anything."
She scoffed, "You don't know? Then why the fuck is he showing this as if you guys had something to do with it?"
"Nox, I know you're mad.." Blaire said, trailing her words.
Angrily, "I'm more than mad. You guys didn't help him when he needed someone to lean on! I had to repeat three more subjects because I had to be there for him! He wanted you guys to help him yet--Fuck you all!"
Nox knew that Lawrence was troubled, but never did she think that he's dumb. They both saw it, their supposedly 'friends' commenting on how Lawrence should kill himself.
She fucking confronted them, naturally. Slapped the shit out of Adam, Mitch, Blaire, Ken, Val and Jess. She fucking knew it was their fake account, and the only excuse they said.
"They were on it so we had no choice. We were just kidding, Nox."
Bullshit. They always had a choice.
Billie227: let's play a game!
Billie227: and the loser is gonna die.
Billie227: chill, Adam.
Billie227: this game is called 'Never Have I Ever'
"The drinking game?" Nox piques, "I always lose at this game."
"Same." Jess chimes
"What's that game?"
Billie227: care to explain it to Blaire?
"Uh, you put five fingers up and if you did something the other person says, you have to put a finger down." Nox explains.
"Fuck. Seriously? We could've just played poker or billiards but Never Have I Ever? I fucking suck at this." She grumbles.
Billie227: but in this version, the person doesn't drink
Billie227: the loser dies
"This is dumbest fucking thing." Adam blurts
"Fuck, that's better than stripping."
"Really, Nox?" Mitch asked in disbelief
"What? I would rather die than strip myself in front of you guys."
"Since when were you a prude?"
"The moment I met Lawrence, fuck shit."
Thus the game of Never Have I Ever began.
Billie227: FIVE FINGERS up please.
Nox shook her head and raised her hand.
Billie227: never have I ever STARTED THE RUMOR THAT BLAIRE HAS AN EATING DISORDER.
"Wasn't that Val?" Nox curiously asked.
Billie227: 10
Billie227: 9
Billie227: 8
Billie227: 7
"It was me, okay? I'm sorry." Jess admitted, putting her thumb down
"You told me it was Val. What the fuck?"
Billie227: Never have I ever CRASHED JESS' MOTHER'S CAR
Billie227: 10
Billie227: 9
Billie227: 8
Sighing, Blaire put her pinky finger down. "I'm sorry, it was me. We were drunk, I didn't know how to tell you. I'm sorry, Jess."
"Fuck you. Fuck you!"
Billie227: never have I ever made out with Nox Sawton
Billie227: 10
"Oh come on." Nox mumbles, "Seriously?"
"That was me. Easy. I did, okay? It was before she started dating Lawrence. Nothing else happened." Mitch admits, thumbs down
Nox wanted to add gas to the fire but prevented herself from doing so.
"It's fine." Blaire closed her eyes, frowning.
Billie227: never have I ever SOLD OUT ADAM TO THE COPS FOR SELLING WEED.
Billie227: 10
Billie227: 9
"Come on. Please tell me he's lying, Jess. You fucking bitch!"
"Fuck you, it wasn't me, okay?"
"Shut up, shut up! It was me, man. It was me. I'm sorry."
"What? Why?"
All hell broke loose.
"What do you mean 'what why'? It doesn't matter."
"Yeah it does to me, Mitch! They put me in fucking handcuffs, man! I almost had a record! My fucking dad almost disowned me for that!"
"Dude, it was gonna be both of us or one of us, and I would do the same shit for you."
Nox with her five fingers up didn't know what to do but kept quiet.
Billie227: never have I ever STOLEN $800 FROM ADAM
"You guys are fucked up, man!" Adam exclaims, furiously
Billie227: 10
Billie227: 9
Billie227: 8
Jess placed her index finger down.
Nox knew Adam was quite wealthy, she and Adam would spend their money mostly on anything.
Billie227: never have u ever OFFERED TO TRADE JESS' LIFE FOR THEIRS
"Fuck.."
