《Only you can make me feel better... (Calamity x Drift)》Chapter 24: Suspicious
Advertisement
I woke up by the sunshine and birds chirping. I turned around and opened my eyes, seeing Calamity laying next to me but... She was wearing her max stage outfit. (blue smoke) That's odd... I sat up right and gently shaked Calamity's shoulder. I said softly. She let a small sigh out and opened her eyes. I asked curiously. Calamity sat up right and looked down to her clothes. Her face expression turned into a confused face. She murmured. I said. Calamity mentioned. I said chuckling. Calamity said sarcastically.
We walked downstairs and saw Brite and Raptor were making breakfast together. They looked cute together to be honest hehe. Calamity greeted. Brite sang. Calamity said while sitting down at the dinner table, and I sat down next to her. Brite replied and I giggled.
Brite and Raptor finished cooking breakfast so now we were all sitting at the table eating our breakfast. Raptor said. I said sadly. Calamity said. I nodded and continued eating.
Me and Calamity now arrived at the HQ. We were searching for John until we found him at the meeting table. He was sitting on the sort of 'throne' chair. John said. Me and Calamity sat down. Calamity asked. John said. I said and then me and Calamity left the HQ.
We went home again to take Calida with us. Calamity sat in front and I sat behind her, holding her waist. I couldn't let it, but rub her stomach, which already started to slightly show. Calamity whined, but giggled as well. I asked chuckling. She said jokingly. I laughed and kissed her cheek. We then started making our way to Fatal Fields.
When we arrived, we hopped off Calida and Calamity attached her to the fence of the house. We went inside the house and started searching everything. I was searching the second floor and the attic. Calamity was just searching the first floor. After some time, I was done with searching with the second floor so I wanted to go up to the attic, but Calamity interrupted me. She said. I said. She nodded and left the house.
I walked to the attic and was now searching. But I couldn't find anything so I went outside to go help Calamity. I shouted. She shouted back. I walked to the corn field in front of the house and found Calamity. She was kneeled down and inspecting a phone and there was some blood. I asked standing next to her. Calamity explained and pointed on the big blood stains on the field. I suggested. Calamity said and then we went to Calida to search nearby places to ask people.

After we asked people around, we unfortunately couldn't find anything else, besides the phone and the blood stains in the corn field. We told John about it and said that he would do some more research about it. I spent the rest of the day with Drift, Brite and Raptor at home in the living room. Nothing much special.
It was around 21:15 and I decided to go to sleep a little early. I went upstairs to our room and removed my clothes. I put my sleeping shorts on and my top, but as I did, I noticed something. My clothes were on my bed and I looked closely to my glove. I saw something red, like... Blood? I grabbed my glove and touched the red stain. My heart skipped a beat as I noticed this was really blood... Shit... I don't even know how this blood came on my glove. I didn't even touch the blood stains back at the cornfield... But I had to remove this shit before anyone sees it.
I picked up my clothes including my gloves. I walked to the laundry room and first put my coat in the washing machine, then my leather blouse and pants. I held my gloves and stared at the blood stain. How though? My thoughts were interrupted by someone entering the laundry room. I quickly turned around and held my gloves behind my back. I saw Brite had walked in. She asked smiling. I lied. Brite asked. I said. She said. I said confused. Brite said. Brite cut me off. Brite said sternly but I could see that see that she was caring for me. I sighed and quickly put my gloves in the washing machine. I say and chuckle. Brite said with a smile. I say back and go back to my room.
I see Drift was in bed, already asleep. I laid down next to him and snuggled closer to him. I was nervous about Brite. What if she will see those blood stains? Nahh, I already put everything in the washing machine, so I don't think that she will just take my glove out to check it out... Would she?... I just shoved the thoughts away and closed my eyes, falling asleep.
And just like yesterday, I woke up at midnight again feeling... as if my sanity was being drained and then....
I felt nothing...
I slowly woke up and groaned a little because of a light headache. I sat up right and opened my eyes. I saw I was on the couch in the living room. I got confused and also noticed I was again in my max stage outfit (blue smoke). I then saw something horrible.

As I looked at my hands, I saw my gloves were almost fully covered in blood... My heart started beating like crazy. What the fuck is happening... I got really scared and stood up.
I walked upstairs to the laundry room again and saw that the washing machine was empty, so Brite did do the laundry last night. I quickly put my gloves in the washing machine and just put a random towel in there as well so that my gloves weren't notable. I turned the machine on by pressing the 'on' button.
In the mean time, I walked to my bedroom and quietly opened the door. I got relieved when I saw Drift was sleeping. I walked in the bathroom, locking the door. I removed all of my clothes and looked at the mirror, but gasped as I saw my face. Blood... on my cheeks and neck... I got really shaky and just stood there frozen. After what felt like eternity, I was back in reality and stepped in the shower and leaned against the shower wall, while letting the cold water run down. I started quietly sobbing as I slid down the wall. I sat on the ground, hugging my knees as I felt too emotional and was scared to death about what was going on...
I woke up by the sound of a running shower. I didn't see Calamity next to me so I assumed she was taking the shower. I changed into my first stage clothes and went downstairs. I walked to the kitchen and grabbed the ingredients to make some pancakes. While I was mixing the ingredients, Calamity walked downstairs in her stage 3 clothes. I said glancing over to her. She simply said and walked to the front door. I asked. She replied. I said. She said and opened the front door. I was just about to say something but she already left.
I got worried now. What happened to her? Why was she acting like this? Just then, Brite and Raptor walked downstairs. Raptor asked. I asked worried. Brite explained. I nod and relax a little. Brite said and walked over to me, standing next to me now.
She picked up her phone and showed me a picture. It was one of Calamity's gloves with something red on it. I asked curiously, letting of of the mixer I was holding to mix the ingredients, and grabbed the phone from Brite's hand. Brite explained. I said.
Just as Brite was about to say anything, her phone rang. She picked it up and answered it. Brite said. Brite said. What was John asking her? Brite said and hang up. Raptor asked. Brite said. Raptor asked. Brite said. Brite and Raptor sat down at the dinner table and I continued making the pancakes. When I was finished, we ate the pancakes and soon were finished eating.
Me, Brite and Raptor now arrived at the HQ and went to the meeting table. We saw everyone was there, except of course Calamity. I asked, sitting down, so did Brite and Raptor. John asked glancing at all of us. Everyone nodded. John grabbed an envelope and just looked at us. John said and started opening the envelope. He took the letter out and unfolded it, reading it.
After he was done with reading, he lowered the letter.John said with a low voice looking at us. I said trying to defend Calamity because I know that she wouldn't do anything like that. John said. John said. Dire and Carbide nodded and went to John. Everyone else left and so did I, together with Brite and Raptor.
When we arrived home, we went inside and I saw Calamity was on the couch eating nacho's, while watching TV. She turned her head to us as she heard us come in. She asked. Brite lied. She nodded and continued watching TV. Brite and Raptor went up to their room and I went to the couch. I sat down next to Calamity and put my arm around her shoulder. I mentioned as I noticed the dinner table was empty and the kitchen was clean. Calamity explained and I nodded. I asked but Calamity didn't seem to understand it. I said clearing it out. She said. I said and gave her a quick kiss on her lips. She asked as she showed the bag of nachos. I say and grab some nachos. We then just cuddled with each other and watched TV.
