CHAPTER THREE
CARRIES POV
I woke up with my phone alarm screaming at my to wake up. I turned it off, and numbly got dressed in all black so I could hide in the shadows. When I looked out the window it was pitch black. Not even the moon was out tonight. I crept up the stairs after finding everything that I needed then quietly found my way to the front door without turning on any lights. I could see my breath as I walked to my car and started the heater right when my car turned on.
I made my way through the streets and came up to one I have become so familiar with these past couple of months. I idled my car a couple of houses down from Beccas and still saw her boyfriends car out in the front, but out of site from her home so if her parents looked out they wouldn't see it. I sat there for about an hour and started to get annoyed that he hadn't left at his usual time.
As I waited I thought of the first time I had found out he snuck over there almost every night leaving the window unlocked which was such an advantage to me.
I had been following Becca for about two weeks, but not long enough to know where she lived yet. She was leaving a movie with one of her guy friends and he drove her back to her house. Once he left I made my way to her bedroom window excited to see how her room looked. Her lights were on and I could see her shadow moving back and forth as she talked on the phone smiling.
The walls where a deep red color, and her furniture was all black from her dresser to her bed. She wasn't the most organized person in the world, but I would just use that to help me some how because she wouldn't notice if things went missing. She had posters of every band you could think of plastered on her walls, and a whole wall full of books.
In the front I heard the rumble of an old car. Frustrated I went to go check out who it was disturbing my time with Becca and recognized her boyfriend in the driver seat. I couldn't leave through the side of the house because he would for sure see me so I had to climb up the tree that was near the fence separating the front lawn from the back. Quietly I made my way up the tree and went as high as I could go without breaking any branches.
I heard the click of her unlocking the window and watched as he strolled up with a stupid grin on his face then made his way into her room. I waited for another ten minutes to make sure they were away from the window then jumped back down landing on the balls of my feet and my right hand extended forward to help with my balance.
I slid against the side of her house and peeked into her room to see her boyfriend on top of her. They were obviously having sex, but I could rip my eyes away as things progressed. When she flipped him over and got on top then yanked her shirt off revealing everything to him I adverted my eyes and walked over to the opposite side of the tree and sat down then waited.
A couple of hours and many games of online checkers from my phone later I heard the window slide up and I tensed making sure I remained unseen. I listened closely and once I heard it slide back down I leaned over to see if he had left. I saw him walking down the side of the house and once I heard his car drive off and crawled to the space next to the window. I turned to my knees and lifted myself up slowly so I could peek in.
She was laying there completely still, and I saw her chest rise and fall confirming she was asleep. I tested the window to see if it was still unlocked and it was. Inch by inch I moved it up and when it had enough space for me to get through I silently made my way into her room. I could hear my heart beat in my ears from the adrenaline pulsing through me, and I looked around her room trying to find something I could take.
Becca rolled over making me stop in my tracks, but remained sleeping. Even in a deep slumber she was beautiful, and it made me hate and envy her even more. Knowing I couldn't spend anymore time in here I walked to her computer desk, and grabbed something that looked like a journal. I shoved it into my jacket the was zipped up and tight so it wouldn't fall out as I made my way out of the window.
When I was outside, for kicks, I slammed the window shut to startle her thhen ran to her neighbors lawn away from her line of site. I stayed in the shadows as I walked to my car and sat in driver side. I pulled out the notebook, and opened it revealing it was in fact her journal with every entry dated.
I was snapped back into reality when I saw the backlights of her boyfriends car light up then speed away. I turned off my car then got out and made my way to her house quickly and quietly. As usual she was sleeping in her bed with her back towards the window. I searched around the area near her window hoping I would find my earring that I had lost earlier, it being the reason I was out here in the first place.
I couldn't find and I didn't want this to be a wasted trip so slid her window up slowly and made my way towards her bed. I looked down at her resting peacefully and wanted to get rid of her then and there, but that would leave me unsatisfied and all my work would go to waste. I turned my attention to her bed side table and there glistening in the moonlight was my earring. My eyes widen and I didn't know if I should risk her waking up and seeing because she was facing that direction.
After a couple of seconds of mental debate I tip toed to the side of her bed that had my earring and reached for it. My hand hovered over it as I kept my eyes on her praying she wouldn't open her eyes at that very moment or everything would be over with. I felt the cool metal against my fingers and I securely grabbed it then swiftly walked back out of her view. I was about to go out the window when she turned over and said something that made me freeze.
"Patrick?" She whispered softly, and with that I quickly made my way out of her room then ran to my car not caring if it was too obvious. I turned back around once I was safely in my car and saw her lights were still off then I realized she was probably talking in her sleep. I looked down at my palm and opened it seeing my earring. Carefully I place it into my bag that was on the seat next to me and made my way back to my house to get some sleep for tomorrow.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Again I found myself waking up to my annoying phone alarm letting me know that I had to get ready for school. I smiled at the thought of putting my plans into action and sprung out of bed. I grabbed the most plain clothes I could find in the hopes of making me seem as boring and dull as possible. I brushed my hair then left it alone not wanting to style it in any way. I grabbed my bag then made my way up the stairs to the first floor of my house.
When I walked into the kitchen I saw my mom had left a post it note on the fridge. I yanked it off and read what she wrote me before she left for work.
Have a good day at school. Money on the counter. Call me when you get home. - Mom
I rolled my eyes and crumpled up the tiny yellow piece of paper then threw it in the direction of the trash can. I search the counter for money and saw a very old and worn five dollar bill. I shoved it into the front of my pants, and walked to my car not locking the door to the house because lets face it, if someone where to break in they would probably laugh at the empty run down house that held nothing in it.
On the way to school I was getting more anxious as I got closer. Not bad anxiety, but the anxiety you get before you do something like ride a roller coaster, or bungee jumping. The school itself was the biggest I had ever seen or gone to. Massive buildings made up the school that made you feel small and overwhelmed. I turned off the engine and got out then started to walk through the hordes of students walking all around the quad.
I stood under a walkway and looked around for someone I recognized as Beccas friend. My eyes landed on her friend James, and the only reason I know who he was is because of her journal, along with the rest of her friends. All in the notebook I learned everything about them, well everything she knew about them.
James was the best friend. He trumped over everyone and I believe even her boyfriend. They have known eachother since they were born and have a relationship that would be easy to maniplulate into something more without them doing anything. I just have to put the idea out there and it'll manifest itself.
Chloe was her best chick friend, and she had a long time boyfriend named Aaron. They used to fight a lot when their relationship was new, but over the last year or so it has gotten better. What I also found out in the notebook was that Becca and Aaron used to have a little thing before she started to go out with Patrick and she never got fully over it until a year ago. Just another thing I could use in order to have her friends turn their backs on her. I'm so happy I found that notebook.
Hayden and Ana were the newest to the group. I wish there was more written about them other than hanging out and shit, but I couldn't be too selfish. I also didn't want everything handed to me, but I have seen the way Ana looks at Patrick when I had been watching them for afar. This was definitely going to get interesting. I wasn't planning on getting all of her friends involved, but when I got that notebook more and more ideas popped into my head, and I just had to go through with them.
My eyes landed on a tall blond with bouncy curls. Chloe. I smiled to myself then walked further into the quad. I found a table close to where she was along with the rest of the group minus Becca, Patrick, and Ana. I pulled my schedule out for classes and read through it one more time making sure I had it memorized. My first period was going to be English, and I was hoping to God it was with one of them. I wasn't counting on this school being so big, but I wanted to at least have a class with one of them in each of them to work to my advantage.
I tucked a piece of hair behind my ear, then pulled out a book I was almost finished with.
"JAMES!!!!" I heard coming from the left of me.
In my perrifiral saw Becca running over to James then jumping on him while Patrick walked behind her with a hint of jealousy in his eyes. I made a mental note of that and kept pretending to read my book.
"BECCA!!!" I heard him yell back at her, and for some reason I still hated that she went by that name.
She fell on the floor with James on top of her and then he helped her up. Chloe said something to her and she laughed as she walked over and gave her a hug. They began to talk as I saw Aaron walk up behind Chloe and put his arm around her which looked awkward like he didn't want it to be there. As they started talking again Aaron never took his eyes off of Becca after she gave him a side hug and across the table Patrick was staring at Aaron while Hayden talked excitedly about something.
Hayden then walked over behind Becca and hugged her as she laughed about something he had said. I looked down at my book and noticed my knuckles were gripping the book so hard they were turning white. That envious feeling was washing over me again, and it just made me want to get on with the day and hopefully meet one of them.
"Patrick come tame your girl dude!"
That snapped me out of my thoughts and I slowly lifted my eyes to see Patrick put his arms around Becca shooting Aaron a mean glare which she didn't see because she was took busy talking to Chloe. Aaron played it off like nothing happened because he obviously couldn't make a face back while she was looking at him next to Chloe.
They all laughed at something she said as they all took seats around the table they were standing at. Since they were talking too low for me to hear I tried to focus on reading my book. I still couldn't get into it, but kept it up so I didn't look so awkward sitting by myself doing nothing. I strained my ear trying to hear anything they were talking about, but it was still too quiet for me to hear.
In the corner of my eye I saw all of them looking my way. I didn't know if they were looking at me or at something near me so I snapped my head up then they all turned quickly in their seats. Well obviously they were all looking at me, but I didn't mind. The fact that they had already noticed me got my heart pumping and I was so happy that I was on their radar. I kept staring at them and I was about to look away when Beecas head started to turn to look towards me again. We made eye contact and she gave me a small smile which I copied right away.
She turned back towards her friends and a couple of seconds later the bell rang. I put everything into my bag, and slowly started to walk towards my first period. I saw Becca, James, and Aaron head towards the same direction as my class and I was hoping that they were in the same one as me. I walked a little bit faster in order to listen to their conversation, but the hallways were so loud I wasn't able to hear anything, but I did see that she had her arm around James as he did the same to her. Aaron kept giving side glances to her, but she didn't catch the way he looked at James which was with sadness and jealousy.
I slowed down putting distance between us as they rounded the corner to walk into class. I rubbed the sides of my head in order to calm myself down because being so close to her is going to take a lot of self control on my part. I blew out one last breath and walked in. I saw all of them were sitting in the back and that there was an empty spot in front of Becca. Without caring if it was already taken I walked to the back and sat down.
I felt a tap on my shoulder and I froze for a second. Why would she tap my shoulder? Was she going to ask me to move? I closed my eyes, then snapped them open after relaxing. I turned around and was met with her bright smile which made her dimples dent in then she put her hand out like she wanted to shake my hand.
"Hi, I'm Becca."
I looked down at her hand then decided to just go along with it even though it seemed like a pretty stupid thing to do. I met her eyes and put my hand into hers.
You have no idea what your about to go through Becca.
"Carrie." I said smiling.
