The weekends became lonely, since Brooke was under house arrest. The only time I really got to see her was at school, and even then she was busy with classes. Sometimes we FaceTime, but she doesn't want to get caught with the new phone I got her, so she only uses it in the bathroom.
Brielle insists I stay with her this weekend. As soon as I got off of school Friday she picked me. Here am I now, sitting on her couch flipping through Snapchat stories.
I flip past Terra's. Of course she's looking like a bad bitch with the heart filter. Of course I had to slide up and say, 'ouu bestie lookin like baddie !
Bri comes up from behind me and snakes her arms around my neck, "sorry about that babe," she kisses the side of my face.
"It's fine. It was a work phone call," I turn slightly to look at her.
"How about we go out for dinner?"
I nod my head, "Chinese?" I asked.
"I was thinking Mexican."
"Yah me to. A New Mexican restaurant just opened up down the street. Should we check it out?" I stood up and made my way around the couch.
"That sounds great," she pecked my lips, "I need to shower first."
I nod my head and looked down at my sweats, "yah I should probably change also."
"Okay then, we'll leave in thirty?"
I nod my head as she walks away going to the bathroom. Leaning over the couch I grab my phone and walk towards her room. I still had some of my stuff here. It was all mix and match stuff. Going through it all I pull out one of my jean skirts.
So this is where it disappeared to! I paired the jean skirt with one of Bri's button up shirts. I also luckily had left my white ankle boots here, so I threw them on also.
I looked at myself in the mirror. My short wavy hair was in a mess. I ran my hands through it. Grabbing my backpack, I pull out my makeup back that has the essentials in it. To keep it simple I fill in my eyebrows, add some blush and highlight to my cheek bones and nose, a quick few coats of mascara, and some two faced extreme lip injection gloss.
One last look in the mirror and everything perfect. I walk out the room to find Bri waking out the bathroom fully clothed. She has a towel draped around her shoulders drying her hair.
"Hey baby, I'm almost done," she grabs me by the waist and puts her forehead on mine.
"Hurry, I'm hungry."
She lets me go and smiles, "ok ok," she walks back to her bedroom and I follow. I watched as finished getting ready. Throwing everything together with a belt.
"Okay let's go," she grabs my wrists pulling me up.

We walk out the apartment and to her car. The drive to the restaurant was short. It was after all down the street from her apartment. We walked inside hand in hand. The ladies instructed us to sit wherever. We took a booth seat.
The menus were already at the table. We flipped through them before the lady came back over, "do you guys know what you'd like to drink?"
I nod my head, "a lemonade please."
She turns to Bri, "horchata please."
The lady nodded, "I will be right back with your drinks."
"We can go watch a movie after this if you'd like," Bri put down the menu.
I smiled over at her, "I've been wanting to see little woman."
"Sounds like a plan."
The waitress comes back with our drinks, "do you need another minute to look over the menu?"
"I think we'll order now," Bri answers for us, "I'll have the chicken enchilada plate."
The waitress starts writing on her pad then turns to me, "and for you?"
"I'll have the beef enchilada plate."
She nodded her head and walked off.
"I'll be right back I think I left my wallet in the car," Bri stood up. I watched her walk outside.
I sighed. Why does this feel off?
Her phone buzzes a few time from the other side of the table. It kept on buzzing so I grabbed it. Maybe it was an important business call. Her phone was apparently ringing, but the person hung up by the time I grabbed it.
5 miss calls.
15 unread messages.
I attempted to unlock her phone, but she changed her password. What the actual fuck!
"Grabbed it!" Bri slid back into her spot on the other side of the booth. She saw me holding her phone, "what are you do-"
"Unlock your phone," I didnt even let her finish.
"Grace your over reacting," she reached for her phone.
I held it further away from her, "prove to me I'm over reacting open your phone."
"I don't need to prove anything to you."
I starred at her straight in the eye. For a split second I held the phone up to her face. It picked us her face recognition and unlocked. She jumped up in her seat.
"Jada?!" I hopped out of the booth and walked outside.
She followed me, "look it's not what you think!" she continued to try and reach over me to grab her phone.
"It's not what it look like?" I scrolled through the messages catching glimpses here and there, "oh I think it's exactly what it looks like, Brielle!"
"Grace don't make a scene. Not here not now."
That's what she as worried about? Me making a scene! Oh I'll make a scene alright.
"You have played me, for the last time! I'm done, we're done," I threw her phone on the ground and stopped on it walking off.

Tears were threatening to fall. I'm assuming Bri was pissed I broke her phone because she didn't even bother coming after me.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket and dialed the only person that I knew could help me right now.
"Hello?"
"Hey, um, are you in town?" My voice cracked.
"Grace? Are you okay?"
"I could be better," I was on the verge of bawling my eyes out.
"I'm in town where are you?"
"Um, I'm not exactly sure," I looked around. I had walked away from the restaurant in the opposite direction of Bri's apartment.
"Ping me your location, now. I'll be there in ten."
💔💔😭😭🙊🙊
"That bitch! I'm going to shoot her!"
I shook my head, "she's not worth your time Terra."
She rolled her eyes, "I warned you about this! We all warned you! Why didn't you listen?"
I brought my knees up to my chest, "I thought she'd change."
"Oh honey," she wrapped her arms around me, "once a cheat always a cheat boo."
I hiccuped laughing, "who's car is this?"
She let me go and smiled, "you like it?"
I nod my head.
"Good, because it's mine."
"Awe T You finally bought your own car?"
She eagerly nods her head, "yes! But it's not about me right now. We'll talk about me later. Right now I say we forget everything. All girls, for tonight were going to erase them from our minds. Flush them down the toilet."
I look over at her, "what did you have in mind?"
She put the car in drive, "I know a wicked party going on tonight. Let's crash it."
Terra pulls out of the parking lot.
"Will there be drugs?"
"Let's just say, it's going to be one trip we won't remember."
When we arrive at the party it seems to not be in full swing. I look at the clock and it's only eight. Who party's this early?
"Are you sure this is the place? Or that it even starts this early?"
Terra fixed her makeup in the mirror, "yes, I'm sure this is the place," she handed me her makeup bag that was in her lap, "might wanna fix up a bit before we go inside."
I pull down my mirror and I looked like a hot mess. After reapplied some makeup and running my finger through my hair we got off.
Terra walked dip to the door, and simply pushed it open. Inside the house was more chaotic. I guess people do party this early.
I stayed close behind Terra since I knew absolutely no one. We walked through the living room to get to the kitchen.
"How much do you have on you?" Terra turned around to face me.
"Nothing why?"
"LSD isn't cheap."
I rolled my eyes, "oh baby. I don't pay," I smiled at her, "who's selling?" She pointed over to girl. She had waist length blonde hair, wore a skin tight light pink dress, and had tan skin. The girl had her back to me.
"What's her name?" I walked over and grabbed a drink while still starring at her.
"Ashley," Terra took my drink and I rolled my eyes pouring another.
"Straight?"
"I don't know."
"I'm trying to get us free drugs here, and your help," I gulped down the alcohol.
"I just know she's the supplier. Now go work your magic!"
I took a deep breathe and walked over, "it was Ashley right?" I lightly tap on her shoulder making her turn around.
Her electric blue eyes met mine, "yes, who are you?"
"I'm Grace."
A flash of recognition went through her eyes, "wait the Grace? You use to live in Wellsprings?"
I nod my head, "what you know me?"
She nods her head, "I use to live in WellSprings to! Such a small town everyone knew who Grace was," she flashed me a smile.
"We're you apart of Jeremy's crew?"
"No, I didn't get into selling until I cam here. Needed the extra money," she seemed to puff out her chest. With those big lips and boobs I see where her money went to.
"Your selling here?"
She nods her head, "yeah. It's about to start actually. You should join us."
"Us?"
"A whole group of us are going about upstairs. Makes the trip safer if we don't leave."
"Sounds like fire."
She brushed some hair behind her ear, "oh it is. Join us. It's on me."
"Bet," I lightly brushed up against her wrist.
"Come on we can go up now."
Terra and I followed her back through the living room and up the stairs. We walked all the way down the hall to the last room on the left. There are six other people in the room when we walk in.
"Everyone here's joining us?" She asked the room full of people. Everyone nodded their head. Ashley then turned back to me, "Grace, these are my girls," the ushers us over to a group of girls almost as fake as her, "girls this is Grace and her friend Terra."
They greeted us with a smile, but didn't say much.
"Okay, so let's start," Ashley held a black sharpie in her hand, "everyone take the dose then right the time on their arm. Your going to want to account for missing time."
"What's the dosage amount?" I asked.
"Two times the normal amount, just in case there are any people with a high tolerance," she smirked at me, "with your reputation you might wanna take three."
"I think I just might," I challenged her back.
Ashley began to hand out the pills, I got mine last. She seductively put three pills in my hand, "cheers."
Time marked: 8:56 p.m.

I Want You to Remember Me
A simple romantic tale of a... girl meeting a... boy. Trust and love both take time to grow, but growing together is also a lot of fun. A handful of disclaimers and claims: First, this is fan fiction, set in the “Amaranthine Saga” universe written by Forthright. The story and characters, on the other hand, are wholly my own (fault). I highly encourage you to read the stories from the “Amaranthine Saga” before reading this; the latter half of this story will make a whole lot more sense if you do. Second, this is a relatively short and stand-alone story. The completed story should clock in around 10,000 words, so please do not expect a novel, let alone a series. Third, while this is a romantic story, I’ve never been a fan of the usual romance “misunderstanding” tropes. Think of this as more of a romantic slice-of-life story than an action or traditional romance story. Finally, thank you for reading. :)

RANK
Alpha of the Darks, Vince, imprints on Nya but keeps it a secret.ExcerptVince was resting in bed running the day's events through his mind when his heightened sense of hearing was alerted to the sound of ruffling sheets. Little feet hit the ground telling him it was a female and the odd placement of footsteps lets him know it wasn't Malina. He rises and when he widens his bedroom door Nya's scent flooded through his nostrils. He clears his throat instinctively and follows the smell into the hall. There he finds her coming straight towards him. He was surprised she was up this soon. She should have been out until the morning at least. Her foot was healed and her clothes were changed from earlier. She was now wearing a fitted cotton t-shirt, soft plaid shorts, and her hair was tied up in a messy bun. "What are you doing?" He folds his arms and angles his brows. She keeps her same pace beelined to him.Never, has he ever had the thought of taking a step back when being approached; until now that is. He hesitated. He firmly refused to let anything make him back down. This was his house, his rules, and she had no power over him. His focus inadvertently fell to her breast that lacked cover from a bra, and then to her smooth thighs, and like he has absolutely no control, to her toned calves. She was a foot away when the moon's glow from the skylight illuminated her face. His heart skipped a beat. It had never done that before. Then his train of thought went right off the tracks. He didn't realize how thick her lashes were, or how perfectly red her lips were stained. Where earlier she was pale, she now had a flushed pink color. The darkness from under her eyes was gone and her cheeks were slightly fuller too.He blinks away his unwanted thoughts when she stops inches from him.With a neutral gaze, an expressionless expression almost, she makes a sudden turn and goes around him. "What the f**k?" She was sleepwalking he registered.
