🥺

Storm's POV

"This better be good!" I mumbled to myself as I walked out of the Ball house. I just lied straight to their faces all because this girl, a complete stranger, told me to. Storm, this is what your life has come to? Ok Storm, let's think this through. You're about to face the girl who's been giving you all of these orders that have been making your life slightly harder to live. If I don't find out who she is...she'll continue to do what she's doing. Fuck it let's go!

I walked over to the black jeep and got in. Two people sat in the front with a black hoodie on. Oh yea, I'm finna die today.

"Ok I'm here...." I announced. The person in the passenger seat turns around and I gasp. You've got to be kidding me!

"Hi Storm!"

"Soul? WHAT THE FUCK!" I yelled. She giggles and the person in the driver seat starts the car and starts driving.

"I know this may be very confusing, so let me explain my part" She says. I sat there in shock not knowing what to say. I guess you better start listening Storm. That's all you can do now.

"So Storm, I've always been a fan of you and didn't like how people were treating you. So C and I thought it'd be a good idea for people to get on your good side again. I would've approached you myself but I had a feeling I wasn't gonna get your attention so easily. So I tried to get to you through Josh. Oh by the way, the kiss wasn't a part of my plan. Sorry for doing it by the way. It was so rude of me" She says. I blinked a few times before speaking. This is so mind blowing.

"All of this for....what?" I asked tilting my head. I should beat her ass.

"I told you, to get people on your good side again. It worked didn't it? We were planning for your next step to go on live to explain the whole Melo situation until we got a call from Cali" She says and looks at her partner. I then look at her. Who is this?

"Ugh traffic. Do you think we're gonna make it?" C asks Soul. I've heard that voice before!

"I hope so, Cali isn't holding back now. She's ready" She says sighing.

"Ummm hello" I said snapping my fingers and Soul looks at me.

"Who's this?" I asked pointing at C. The car stops because we're in the middle of traffic now. She sighs and takes her hoodie off. She turns to me and I gasp.

"Doctor?!" I said in shock. She rolls her eyes and takes her glass off, and puts her hair down. No....freaking....WAY!

"Oh my gosh......" I said covering my mouth. This is unbelievable.

"Long time no see Storm" She smirks.

"C-Crystal!?" I said in disbelief.

"Y-Yea" She mocks me, causing her and Soul to laugh.

"It was you this whole time? The calls-"

"The messages, the cds, yea girl that was all me. And by the way, you're welcome" She says smiling at me.

"You're welcome?! For what?" I said confused.

"I basically helped you get your life back on track" She says.

"Because of you two, my life has been horrible thanks. Josh and I are going through it because I couldn't tell him what you been doing" I told her.

"Yea, I heard about that. Are you guys really getting a divorce?" She asks me.

"You guys are getting a divorce? I'm sorry" Soul says frowning. Girl bye.

"I don't even know anymore and that's not the point! That point is, where have you been and why are you trying to help me?" I asked her. I was very confused on what was going on.

"After we graduated from Arizona State, I left and traveled the world. Of course I was still friends with Cali and Denise, but over time, Cali had this obsession over you. Like she hated you so much because you took Josh from her. I gave her a stern talking to and your name was never mentioned again. When I was in India a few years ago, I learned that Cali had kids and she was also on drugs and the government took her kids away from her. I came back to LA and went to go see her and how she's doing. She told me that you and Josh had her kids and when she gets better, she's gonna see them" She starts.

"Now she's so called better and gets to see the kids blah blah blah, she calls me and tells me she has a new plan. She's gonna get revenge on you for taking her kids, Josh, and her ugly ass, short ass, drug dealing, abuser ass baby father" She says and Soul starts to laugh. I was shocked I couldn't even laugh right now.

"I know you had your problems with her and how she jumped you and I thought that wasn't cool. She of course didn't care what I think so she proceeded with her plan. Now speed up to when I left you your first cd in Vegas. Soul and I are pretty good friends and I told her what Cali was doing. Soul thought you were an amazing person and wished people remembered that side of you. So we came up with the idea to help you out" She says.

"We gave you the push you needed" Soul says smiling. No matter what, she's always smiling.

"We made you do all of these things to lift your name up. It did, while it brought others down and some drama in your life. But it still helped you" She shrugs.

"So why am I here exactly?" I asked them. They looked at each other before sighing.

"Cali found out I was helping you and got mad. We fought and I stabbed her in the leg" She shrugs. What?!

"So now she's about to post you and Melo's sex tape on the internet and ruin everything we did" She says. My eyes widen and my heart starts to beat. Oh my..

"What did you just fucking say?!" I asked her.

"Ugh I hate Cali, why does she have to be such a bitch" Soul says folding her arms.

"Do you know what this means? I'm done for!" I yelled.

"No shit Sherlock that's why we're on our way to her condo to stop her. And to cut both of her hands so she doesn't post it" She shrugs. She wasn't kidding...she's crazy.

"Oh my gosh" I said as I ran my fingers through my hair. So many thoughts were running through my mind. I'm about to get exposed! The ball family will look at me in disgust! As well as everyone else! I'll lose Peyton as friend! Josh will fore sure leave me and never talk to me again! I'll get hated on 10x worse then what I got before...my life is over!

"Woah there, breathe. We don't want you having a heart attack now" She says.

"My life is over, completely over! Oh my gosh I'm gonna die!" I yelled shaking my head.

"I must say Storm, you definitely got Megan knees. Can you teach me?" Soul asks me, causing Crystal to laugh.

"Good one Soul" She says.

"This isn't funny! Do you guys know how serious this is?" I asked them. I closed my eyes as a sharp pain hits me in my chest. I hold onto it and gasp for air.

"Wind the window down. I can't breathe" I said trying to catch my breath. My hands shaked, as well as my whole body. I was scared, so scared. This is it for me....

"Storm, you're not about to die in my jeep. Can you wait till we stop Cali" Crystal says.

"Speaking of" Soul says and lifts her phone up, Cali is calling.

"Answer it" She says and she answers it, putting it on speaker.

"Wassupppp bitch!" Crystal says.

"I had to, you weren't listening to me and really thought you could beat my ass. Cali you know you can't fight on your own" She says sighing.

"What do you want?" Soul asks her.

She says. That causes my heart to drop out of my chest.

"Cali I'm not fucking playing with you right now. Don't post that video!" I said to her.

She says.

"Cali you've been doing this since we were in college, when are you going to stop!" I said to her.

She says.

"Cali, Josh and Don left on their own. It was a choice to leave" Crystal says.

"Cali look, I'm sorry for whatever I did to you but now you're going to far. My life is on the line here" I said to her.

She screams over the phone.

"Cali you know what, fuck you. You crazy ass bitch!" I yelled at her. She was starting to piss me off.

She says

"When I see you I'm gonna do more then just break your nose. It's time I deal with you right. I'm sorry for your past but it can't be changed. You have to let it go and move on in your life. And you think I'll just let you take my kids away from me like that? Over my dead body!" I said to her and Crystal and Soul nod. It's quiet for a bit before Cali starts to laugh. We all looked at each other weirdly. What's funny?

She asks yelling.

"Why do you think it's me?" I asked her.

She says sighing.

"Wait..." Soul says looking at me.

"Cali what'd you?" Crystal asks her.

She says. I then gag.

"You're a whore, you know that?" I said to her.

She says.

"Cali don't! Please, I'll give you anything. What do you want? Money? I'll give you 5 million right now" I said to her.

She says.

"Cali-" I said but she already hangs up.

"How are we supposed to stop her?" I asked them. Crystal looks around before swerving around and out of the traffic.

"We're taking another route" She says and drives off. I sat there just staring down. My life is about to change in a couple of minutes and I'm not ready. How on EARTH did I let myself get here? Now I know what everyone meant when they said I don't say anything until it's to late. Im sorry everyone...

My phone starts to ring and I see Josh calling. Wrong time Josh. I picked it up and brought my phone to my ear.

"H-Hello" I said.

He says. I heard laughter in the background. It sounds like he's home with my mom and the kids.

"It was good. I really enjoyed it" I told him.

He says.

"Yea, I'm glad too" I said. I closed my eyes as I listened to his voice.

He says. My eyes get watery as I listened to him. Joshy...

"Josh, you're amazing you know that? Besides the little issues we have, you're so good to me and you're such an amazing man. It's not ok that you're honest with me and I'm not. I promise you it will be different in the future" I told him as a tear rolls down my face. If I have a future...

He says chuckling.

"You're right. But um, some things you just can't come back from" I said to him.

He asks me.

"Josh, I'm sorry ok. I didn't mean for any of this to happen, I didn't think it'll go so far either" I said as I closed my mouth with my hand to hold my sob in.

He asks chuckling a bit.

"I-I can't tell you. I'm sorry that I can't tell you" I said shaking my head.

He asks.

"Josh I love you" I said looking down.

He says.

"Bye Josh" I said hanging up. I held onto my phone and cried silently.

"Storm, I promise you we're gonna stop Cali. It's not gonna end like this" She says. Soon enough we get to Cali's condo building and race out of the car. We rush in the building and get to her condo immediately. Before we open her door, I stop them.

"Wait, don't we need some kind of plan?" I asked them.

"Oh that's a good idea" Soul says and Crystal rolls her eyes.

"The plan is to go in there and stop her. That's it. We don't have time to plan anything out" She says looking at the two of us.

"But what if-" I started but she cuts me off.

"We are wasting time talking Storm!" She says and I roll my eyes. She kisses her teeth and kicks Cali's door open. There you see Cali sitting down with her computer in front of her. She looks at us smiling.

"Hey guys, while you chatting it up at the door, I posted the video" She shrugs. My eyes widen and Soul turns her computer around. Uploaded 1 minute ago. Oh my gosh....

"Delete that right now Cali" I said walking up to her. She stands up and crosses her arms.

"No" She says. My hands start to shake and before I knew it, I hit her. Storm! What are you doing!!!

"You can beat me all you want Storm. It's to late" She says laughing.

"Oh my gosh guys look!" Soul says holding the computer. We looked at the computer and already 1,000 people saw the video.

"Cali you bitch!" Crystal says and starts to beat on Cali. Soul joins in and I continue to look at the computer. I grabbed it and tried to see how I could delete it. I need a password.

"I need a password" I told them. They stop beating Cali and look at her.

"What's the password?" Soul asks her.

"I'm not telling you guys shit" She spits at them. I stand there typing in random stuff. It has to be something she likes. Slowly my phone starts to go off which makes my heart start to beat. It's starting.

"It has to be something I know. Cmon Storm, time is ticking" I said to myself. My hands shakes against the keyboard as fear washes over me. My breathing quickens which causes me to breathe through my mouth to receive air faster. It's so hard to keep calm right now.

"Storm did you do it?" Crystal asks.

"N-No. I-I can't f-figure out the p-password" I said as I started to cry again. The number of views keeps going up and it's now at 10,000. I'm done for. My phone starts to ring and I see miss calls from all of my friends. I look at the name at the top and see Josh's name. Oh no....

"Try a birthday" Soul says. I think for a second before putting in the twins birthday. That's not it. I type in Lola's birthday and it works. YES!!!

"I got it!" I yelled. I quickly deleted the video and deleted it from the computer's gallery. I then throw is against the floor as it breaks.

"Yesss we did it!" Soul cheers.

"People have that video now. It's going to get around" Cali chuckles. Crystal rolls her eyes and kicks her in the face, causing her to knock out. My phone rings again and I see Josh's name. I sighed before picking up.

He yelled in my ear.

"Josh look-"

He asks me.

"Yes but-"

He says. I tried to speak but I start to feel light headed.

"Storm you're starting to look a little pale" Soul says to me.

He says.

"Josh" I said and hunched over. The sharp pains I'm receiving in my chest felt different. What's going on?

He says. It's out...out! Everyone already saw it....Storm...everyone knows you slept with Melo....it's over. It's all over....

"I can't breathe" I said crying. I start to hyperventilate and look around as things got blurry.

"Storm you're gonna have a heart attack calm down" Crystal says walking up to me.

"It's o-over....it's done" I said to her. I gasped as I held onto her arm.

"Storm...Storm" Soul calls out trying to hold onto me. I shake my head as the taste of metal was in my mouth.

"I can't do it anymore. I c-can't" I said crying out loud. My phone falls to the floor and my fingers feel tingly.

"Storm keep your eyes open. I'm calling 911" Crystal says.

"I'm sorry" I said as I sobbbed.
