Song recommendation for this chapter!

Waking to the feeling of the warm sun Illuminating on my face, slowly opening my eyes to see the landscape surrounding me- tress on all sides of the car expect for where the car was there was a dirt path and Emma no where to be seen. My body feels achy and a metallic smell lingering in the small Space I reached for the door slightly tripping over my feet from not being able the stretch in so long, following the small path leading to where I assume where Emma might be and possibly a creek tress from the left to the right as from as eyes can go nothing but birds chirping and the sound of running water getting closer as I walk. An opening in the trees a small creek with a rock big enough to sit on it in the middle of the moving water, her back was turned to me or anyone who would walk up on her as if she didn’t have a care in the world being confident enough in her body to not care what anyone may say. Always getting praises for your beauty could probably do that to someone ego..she didn’t get it for nothing tho she was beautiful in every way of the word

“Are you just gonna keep staring”

Her soft but mocking tone cutt the my thoughts “ why are we here?” Replying back nonchalantly not understanding why she would take me here seemingly after a party you would think the first place she would want to be is home sleeping away her hang over. “ why do you think?” The girl replied raising her brow looking me up and down, I have no Recollection of what happened last night.. Was it because I drank too much? I wouldn’t know I’ve never drank before last night wud have been my first time even being at a party. Not answering her remake I start to take off my clothes from the night before….blood on my clothing ..lots of it.

the memories for the party flooding my head as if had happened right then, I killed him “ hey!” Emma's voice breaking the silence before I could even react she grabs my hand the next second I’m in the water with her “WHAT THE HELL” I screamed out “ what’s the problem??you were gonna get in anyways!” She laughed, setting my feet on a rock that wasn't covered in Algae wiping the water from my face as blood filled the water around me “did..he die..?” Stuttering over my words as the sound of him choking over his own blood echoes in my head,the same guy who took the time out of his day to get to know me when he didn’t need to he was so nice to me..” I don’t know..but look on the bright side” .What. “ what the hell are you talking about?” Splashing water in her face before walking over to the rock in the middle of the creek, the warm rock hearing my butt as I sit on it “ we’ll 1 you have me 2 you’ve awaken good thing my here” “ again..your not making any sense” small waves form in the water as she swims over to me “let me see your wrist “ handing her over my arm she flips it over to reveal a barely visible symbol on it sometimes I’ve never seen on my body before “ I -I don’t k-“” This is fantastic!” She yelled seemingly knowing here the symbol meant turning around as she spins around in the water “ Emma what’s going o-“ without letting me finish as she drive into the water swimming back over to me “ rude muc-“ appearing from the water her short blonde her with pink tips now king reaching now her thighs her big beast were no longer there now a flat as a cutting board her facial features now completely different no longer looking like the pinnacle of femininity now lining between male and female

“ WHAT THE FUCK” I yelled out trying to back away but they grab onto my foot pulling me back now being only inches away from his face “ it’s me.. clam dow-“ before they could even finish I punched them square in the face making them only grip onto me harder as I try to flee “ holy shi- THAT HURT “” GOOD” laughing was heard as I try to break free from his grasp “ at least I know you can protect yourself “ said a familiar voice said making me slowly turn around, seeing Emma once more but still having to body of the person before “who-..what are you” they just stare at me nothing no words come out. They look at me as if they themselves have asking that question for a long time like I cracked the mask they put up for the word the grip on my foot it’s tighter but seemly I feel the pain as being mindful not to hurt me but to get my attention, looking between my foot and their face their eyes start to water with a single tear falling onto their face the shade of blue slowly fading deeper into the hue “ d-don’t cry..sorry”

“ мне жаль, мама”

“Huh.?”

“ A wolf in sheep's clothing” A small smirk growing on their face looking into my eyes reading my entire existence liek it was a pan flip just so happened to cuaght their eye.

*are they just gonna keep avoiding the question*

“ d-do you even know why..why I at-ate him..” “that I do know!” They say Turing around rocking over the slippery rocks gradually making their way closer to the beach part of the hidden creek “you should finish cleaning up first, then I’ll tell you anything you want” “ you promise!” Screaming out as they walk into the forest throwing up the okay sign with their thumb 👍.

Washing the harden blood stuck to my neck and mouth the water turning from clear to a rusty orange- the memory of the previous night’s action flash in my head, *the disgusted feeling anyone would feel after eating a human would feel hasn’t sunk in yet..but will it ever..?*I can feel that- feeling I had in the moment, still there just dormant for now..like a sacrifice that’s only satisfied with human blood but always hungry for more. Slipping off the bra and underwear uncovering the last bit of skin that hasn’t been washed by the water washing and rubbing away the last bit of blood. I don’t often consume fantasy media but usually whenever someone who’s was turned into a vampire they’re beside themselves with a foul,revolution, stomach turning feeling since they just committed one of the most Heinous act, But-I don’t feel like that way * I guess I’m not the main character of this story- just a normal cannibal who enjoys eating Human flesh..woah I sound crazy! Like of course I feel sorry for pat but if I was given the chance to do it again I would..wait what was his name again…fuck. I don’t even have the decency the remember his name how is that as soon as I actually talk to him I don’t remember shit about him * marching through the outline of tress trying to find my way out while being stuck in my own feelings with what happened with mark, getting closer to the end of the path of tree I hear music getting louder with every step “ HEY HURRY UP BREAKFAST HOUR IS GONNA END!!!” The person once known as Emma yells out “ I’m not even hungry “ “ I AM SO HURRY” * how the hell did they hear me..* fasten my steps I open the car door throwing my clothes in the back still only in my bra in underwear yet still trying to cover myself “covering up like I haven’t already seen you like this” they giggled to themselves putting the car into reverse throwing their arm around the back of my seat Turing to see where their were going “ googwill, breakfast, get money…somehow then Alaska or Maine?” ..“ what are you talking about” I sigh in frustration seeming like their avoiding answering my earlier questions “ we obviously can’t stay here..I’ll put it first forward you a black women Tour open a community loved man’ with a exactly bright futures throat and you think the whole country won’t be after your head?”

Fuck.

That genuinely hasn’t past my mind yet I was so stuck on that taste..wanting more. Closing my eyes trying to clam myself down as my starts to shake uncontrollably my throat starting to get dry * I fucked up..bad* Before a tear could drop from my eye the feeling of a hand framly stops my leg

“ Alaska or Maine” they said plan out keeping their eyes on the road “ Eden clam down..I understand your rightfully freaking the fuck out but I need you to know I won’t let anything happen to you for as long as your by my side. So need not to worry let me focus on that, all you need to worry about is what you want for breakfast” they spoke..the sound nothing like Emma soft soothing like the sound of running water, someone who I cares someone I can trust..something I’ve wanted for so very long now even though I’ve never seen this person before their a familiarity to them.. a small smile growing on their face trying to comfort me

“ ..what are you..”

Hi everyone it’s me again so very sorry I haven’t been posting I will try to post another chapter soon enough before I can’t anymore since I have big news I will be posting!

Song recommendation for this chapter!

The sound of music getting louder

The smell of Smoke and Beer running through the air

I’m starting to get a bad feeling about this..

,Letting my worries take over my mind *clam down ..it’s only for a little while * breaking out of my thoughts I noticed that Emma wasn’t beside me anymore. Swinging my head around to girl the girl I see her in a crowd of people a mix of her friends and some guys from our school basketball team * I guess the dream couldn’t have lasted long..* the thought of possibly going home pooping into my head as I turned to walk away …there’s a smell sweet like vanilla but tangy like citrus of an orange- without even thinking my legs move on it’s own following the scent like stalking Prey, “ did you need to use the bathroom ?” A f firm yet soothing voice spoke to me, fixed my eyes to look like the person in front of me.

Chris murt

The school seniors class representative and Emma’s ex boyfriend.

Long story short she was in love with him they broke up a couple of weeks before I moved into town. The first ever real conversation I had with her was about him I don’t exactly remember why they broke up every time I asked she would dance around the answer and I didn’t care enough to keep asking her. “ uh no- sorry “ whispering looking down as i start to walk away “wait!- what’s your name ?” He suggested grabbing onto the hem of my shirt “..why?.”” I mean this is my party..I think I should know everyone in my house “ he giggled..* wow I think I understand all the hype for him* “ Eden.”” Oh, you're Emma’s new friend!” He yelling in realization “yea-“” it’s so nice to finally meet you, I’ve been meaning to introduce myself. But you know life” he replied cutting me off enlocking his finger to my hand shaking it slightly “ yeah..it’s fine “ I replied shaking his hand back glancing down and nothing to make eye contact “let me make you a drink?”” Uh no it’s oka-“” come on why did you come if you weren’t gonna drink 🍺 “” I really only came to do supportive of Emma..”” oh.then why are you here alone?” as he replied he glancings through the house he see the blonde head girl dancing no care in the world clearly not worried about me “ that make sense “ he said scratching his lips into a blank face embarrassed from even asking “it’s fine imma just go hom-“ * wow he loves to interpret me*” wait what?? Don’t go come on your already here you might as well enjoy yourself “ forcing me into the kitchen he makes himself and me something to drink, without a second thought he chugs his drink down in one sitting laughing it off while he pours himself another cup *wow I definitely wasn’t expecting this from him..but also don’t judge a book by it’s cover I guess * “ why aren’t you drinking?” He nagged �� um I-I don’t drink” “ okayyy you want like a soda then? “” yes please “” what kind?”” Yeah I got ‘em but their in the back” he added- * that’s the case then I don’t want it* he moves through the crowd

~

That smell again..

Following behind him he walks into a room then flicks on a light it was his garage” don’t mind how dirty it is in here I didn’t think anyone would one in here “ he laughed opening as he continue to talk while looking for the soda

I’m not even listening he’s telling me about himself and his life story, and the only thing I’m thinking about is that smell running through his veins * I just want a taste..yeah I taste that should be okay right.? Yeah he’s be okay- just a drop.. A drop *

“G-get o…off of -splat- me”

Blood there blood everywhere

It’s so good

Stop

Stop.

No I can’t it’s so good

I love it it’s delicious I just wanna be this way forever.

It’s comforting, it’s filling it’s like nothing I’ve felt before. I love it

“ EDEN!”

Muffled sounds..no screaming, eyes their eyes are on me all over me I fell filthy they’re all judging me, Stop STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!!.

“-he-help” Chris? Fixing my vision over to the boy

Chucks of his throat gone- the sounds of him choking on his own blood life feelding from his body as he eyes glance for any hope to save his life…

*who did this - who do this to you Chris *

“Get the hell up” Emma? She sounds angry with me why..why tho, I don’t know what going on people screaming being dragged away

losing my breath I’m running?. Emma she’s running while dragging me she looks worried..no..scared “w-what’s wrong ..” my breath low as I spoke Emma stops as she turns into my driveway leaving my question unanswered. somehow she was able to open up the car door “stop! Em-“ within a second she was infront of me, pressing my body against the trunk of the truck with her hand pressed up to my mouth stoping me from speaking. “ Are you trying to get us caught?..- I need you to just follow my lead okay. As long as you do that I can keep you safe.” She whispered yell- but what is she talking about..

Moving her hand from my mouth she opens the door to the truck and removes the button plating under the Steering wheel as she begins to hot Wire the vehicle “okay get in “ she said closing the door.

getting into the vehicle we ride in silence something seems off about her I’ve never seen her this mad before but why…

“ you should get some sleep.” Breaking the silence as she speaks, rather then asking her why I listen to her advice I have a feeling this is going to be a long ride.

“Emma?!?”

I yelled shock and glee filling my body, a large smile covering her face like nothing i've seen before when she was with me “ duhh what other friends do you have?” pushing past me welcoming herself in my home stopping before she could even take more than 2 steps in “ what happened here?”” uhh yeah sorry “ closing the door with my foot in a Swift motion. Grabbing the broom form the side of the Couch “ that doesn't explain what hap-”” where the hell have you been “ i said uttered keeping my Vision looked onto the mess before me “ dang i couldn't even Settle in first “ she chuckles walking around the broken Pieces of glass and sat down making herself comfortable” im serious emma what the hell happened to you “ picking myself up throwing the glass shards out “ ok-okayy well you should probably sit down right …so when i left we went to a bar on the outSkirts of town where that old motel is?.. We got drunk and you know “ she said trying to find a smile creeping up on her face “ gross okay spare we the little details just why were you gone for so long”” your missing outtt- so for a while after i was kinda knocked out for almost the whole day i don't know why but i was”” were you drugged?! They had to be it! see i told you that was a bad idea you were missing for Days and i was-”” calm down! Let me finish” yeah..okay sorry”” so when i woke up and he was gone i waited a while to see if he would come back or where he was Eventually he did he toke me out into the city and we had a time we went shopping, out to eat, got my tips redone towards the end of the night we went to this club..this is were everything starts to get Hazy i remember him leaving for a second to use the bathroom some guy came up to me and started flirting with me he bought me a drink and…i dont honestly a lot after that i remember being in the guys cars”” which guy?”” the guy i left with his name was ryan, in the car with him yelling about something- him dragging me into i assume his actual house i don't know.. Anything goes dark after that when i Eventually came to, i was um…naked and no one was around i got my stuff and left as fast as i could i found a store and asked to use their phone to call my parents they came to get me around the same day sunday afternoon ..that bring you up to date leaving out the police Investigation of course “

..I told her so

“ i-i dont know what to say emma i-”” then don't say anything-i dont wanna talk about it anymore- we have like 10 minutes before i gotta go" " your parents ?”” yeah, they only let me see you because i begged them- they don't want me to be around you anymore, their only giving me 20 minutes to at least let you know i am okay and…give you your phone back “” she utter pulling the phone from packet * woah i didn't know she felt so strongly about our friendship..now i feel even worse about not caring* “i … i know you dont wanna talk about it but i'm here if you need me..” i said looking away slightly, feeling something poke my cheek i look up to her see finger pressed against it 😛the feeling of her finger pressed against me pushing away from, a smell hits my nose its nothing i've ever smelt before, its savory with a hint of metallic as if i was smelling her blood but at the same time its pungent and bitter- yet mixed with a salty damp smells making me pull away “ hey whats that new smell? Did you buy it while you were out “ i asked getting slightly closer to get a better in depth (taste) “ woah personal space “ jabbing me with her finger she pushes me away “ ..sorry “she looks at me confused with a hint of nervousness ” i-i should probably get going ill see you later?” nodding my head walking with her to the door, seeing her way out i wave my goodbyes

That upcoming week was non the less chaotic but when in a good way, emma hung out with me a lot more she seemed to be maybe a better version of herself it was like she saw all the flaws within herself and changed for the better-this is so much better for me, she's like a new and improved. Everything I could have wanted Emma to be but still with being the same old her. She now ate lunch with me didnt ditch me the first chance she got- life is good, could be better but I'm just grateful I finally have a friend.

Laugh and chatter scramming around the halls- i push past them trying to make my way into the lunch room. Something that didn’t sit right with me since she came back was that smell.. It never goes away. I smell her everywhere-when I'm going to bed and when I wake up. I can smell it throughout my dreams. Alluring in a way, the smell getting stronger as I get closer to the cafeteria, the feeling of Relief washing over me when I see Emma at a table alone. I assume she's waiting for me with a newspaper in her hand “ hey what's that?”” its..its the guy i went out with” she spoke, shock filling my body i get closer to get a better look - dead body found in forest grove- “ oh my god what the hell happened “” i..i don't know “ she whispered back i could feel the panic in her breathe. Giving her some space she pushes up from her seat and starts to walk away “ H-hey where are you going !” packing my things up i chase after her “ I need some fresh air" " um okay..we can go home if you want”” home?” “my house..sorry”

walking in silences nothing to but the wind filling that empties..and that smell looming around us “ eden” she said breaking the silences,i glance up at her seeing what she might have wanted “yes?”” there's this party tonight we should go!” Amazing she just found out the guy who basically kidnaped her- body was found and shes things about going to a party, I’ve never been to any of the sort honestly so I wouldn’t mind and it would help Emma with all that’s happened Just to party. “Sure don’t I’m not wearing anything fancy “ I chuckled as she laughed with her

Unlocking my front door I let myself in pushing the door open for her “I’m sooo Hungry !”” I don’t have much I got left over pizza?”” No I’m like..hungry.” She said with a big smile on her face. Her grin reaching both sides of her face “yeah I heard you?” Her face goes blank to my reply without saying anything she just turns any “ SORRY I DON'T HAVE FOOD YOU LIKE”” I'M HUNGRYYYYYYY” she screamed back at me, Marching her way I throw a pillow at her- she removes the soft bed wear from her face. Her smiles..it’s beautiful But not hers-. Cutting my thoughts off as she throws it back at me before I could even react she pulls me onto the couch with her, pinning me down. She’s laughing like I’ve never seen before. Coming to she just looks at me with at same grin she lets go of me, as she’s starts walking up the stairs, being behind her feels like I’m a black figure calling out to me in the woods while I stand at the tree line she's Alluring. Something about her draws me in.

“Eden?” “Huh?”” you should wear this “ the girl said pulling out a brown chest cutt shirt with a sting at the hem holding it up the length isn't long enough to wear on its own barely covering my butt “ only that?? I can't!”” wear like a pear of sorts or something under so your ass doesn't show then” throwing the clothing over her shoulder leading on my head” can you pick something out for me..?” I whisper, looking away her head turning around to look at me a grin growing on her face. “ are you asking me to give you a makeover?!” She screamed in my face “..maybe?” Honestly I don’t really wanna go but if it’ll help get her mind off of everything then I guess I can put this one time, in my entire life I really haven’t done anything Like this, this is so new for me. Pushing me down the blonde hair girl start pulling out the little makeup I have. I don’t have much since companies don’t ever make a foundation in my shade or really any makeup that suits me “this is all you have..?” Looking over to her I shake my head yes as she looks back at me disappointed “ok..okay! I can work with this..somehow “ she stands in front my of me and starts plucking my eyebrows-hissing in pain from the sting but don’t wanting to make her upset I deal with it- she puts glitter on my lids with clear gloss on my lips with light blush my heavy mascara to finish it all off “ do you like it .?” Leaning over me from behind waning an answer “do you want the truth or a lie?”” YOU DONT LIKE IT??”” I didn’t say that but I mean ..it’s alright “” your so lame!” She said dragging her feet back over to my closet picking an outfit out for herself “ it’s okay if I were your clothes right?”” Yeah go ahead imma go change in the bathroom “” what why? We’re both girls I got nothing to hide “ chuckles coming from her mouth i only stare back “yea..ok” I whispered back, slowly taking my clothes off keeping my undergarments on “ nice ass E ! “ she yells over to me making me speed up the process of putting my outfit on looking back over to her to see if she liked the outfit on me. “ do you like it..?”Looking away I asked “ oh my god you so so pretty “ she replied dropping the brush she was using, walking over to me tugging at the hem of the button of she shirt a smile growing on her face * that smell again..oh my god she’s so close- damn her boobs are big, is that weird to say? I mean how was I not supposed to comment on them they’re literally directly in my face-* “ You're like a doll “ “what does that even mean.?” She doesn’t reply walking over grabbing one of the many bags I have hanging up behind my door picking one and stuffing the bag with my makeup in- her outfit just v-line cutt pink tank top with flared jeans and chunky sandals “ready?”” Y-yeah”

Walking behind Emma I follow her like I lost puppy with the only thing breaking our silents is her humming, the thing I’m more focused about is that fucking smell I feel myself shaking wanting..wanting a taste “Emma?!” I yell being some ways from her since I stopped walking- she never noticed “ yeah..? Are you okay” she said walking back over to me “STOP!” She stops as if I commanded her body to stop moving “ w-what is that smell..it’s always on you” glancing up at her I try to stop myself from shaking “ my body wash?” She laughs” what you don’t like it? I thought it smelled wonderful” she continues moving to me “no it isn’t that ..it can’t be- it you just.. You” her eyes to stare at me i can’t read what she's thinking.. “ ..so I stink?” * maybe I should just leave it alone she’s not getting it..she won’t understand..* “ ne-never mind forget it..” I I whined.

Walking again in silence this time with me being ahead of her “ take the next right up there “ she exclaimed, listening to her I see a house the last on the street I see many kids from our school walking into the house and loitering around “ this is gonna be soo fun!” She boomed and grabbed my arm rushing over to the house

*this is definitely going to be something*

Song recommendation for this chapter!

It was my fault for half assing- trying to keep her from leaving. I should have tried harder if I had. I wouldn't be here hanging up a missing poster of her 4 days after shes gone missing. The day she left i didn't do or say anything because in the case she come back she would have gotten in more trouble, not just from her using me as a cover up but also stealing my phone- then her parents, i don't even wanna know what they would have done for such a mean spirited parents. She really does have a caring family but … they have a weird way of showing it . One time they found out that she kept a class and they were talking about making her move in with her grandma.I don't know how she got out of that one

all just distant memories now i feel sick for not actually feeling anything actually.. It sounds wrong I know but how else am I supposed to feel about a girl I never really knew, I feel bad for her family though I really do hope nothing happened to her-

but you know I did ..No that sounds so Insensitive Eden!! My god you don’t know what could have happened to her and the only thing you're thinking is (I told her so!?!),- shaking my head breaking out of my thoughts walking into the front gates of my school it feels like everyone is staring at me . Like I’m the one who killed her- not wanting any sort of attention I walk straight to my classroom pushing past the other student whispering while looking at me “look there she is”” wow I never thought I’d get to see a up and coming murder “” right?!”” She doesn’t even look like she cares it’s only been 4 days since she went missing and she’s already back at school?”” Like why is she acting as if everything is okay?”

God they don’t even know what they're talking about they're just talking to talk- the police have already asked their question and i been cleared from being a Suspect. What reason would I have to even kill her? And who’s to say that she’s dead she could still be alive..but thier right who just comes to school acting as if everything will be okay right after their “best friend “ has been declared missing… I tried to stop her th- ..what’s wrong with me, sinking my head into my desk sighing trying to catch my breath “okay class good morning!!” The teacher yelled with everyone sitting in their seats “ so today's agenda is-“ their words slowly getting quieter by the second- i hate this teacher. He's always so loud this early in the morning I don't understand how he has this much energy. Maybe I should have stayed home today feeling my eyes getting heavier slowly dozing off

“Hey miss eden it's time to get up “ someone said while slightly shaking me awake looking up seeing my biology teacher shaking me awake .*How did I even get here ? I was just in English * “ class is over can you stay in here for lunch but you gotta go after that “ she said walking away from me * Did I go on auto pilot mode just now ?* I do tend to space out often but not for this long one second I was asleep the next I was being woken up by my 4th period teacher, could that be classified as sleep walking? That would be kinda funny. Since my bio class is over it's now time for lunch. I don't ever actually eat anything i go because they check the bathrooms to see if anyone is skipping in there- the lunch line is also so extremely long for food that isn't good . “ What the hell is going on “ something is getting everyone's attention, people pushing past each other and screaming i'm not exactly innocent when it comes to being Nosy. But I'm not up to being shoved around like a rag doll- and i really am hungry tho.. Should i get lunch, a image of the schools lunch popped into my head *absolutely not! I would rather go the rest of the day hungry i could skip and just go home and make something..it better then whatever they may have here actually wait-* patting myself down rummaging through my packets trying to find any money i may have pulling out a 5 and 25 cents from my packet * this could be enough for a soda and chips..but maybe i should just make it and make real food?* shoving the money back into where i found it walking out of cafeteria in this school its like they don't even care if any leaves which does have its pros and cons but i try not to skip since..i don't exactly the best grades i rather not even think about it, walking out of the school grounds the cool fresh air spring flying across my skin freshman and other students walking up and down the streets seeing the counter store the only thing i could think about was her… i am so angry at her but..being angry doesn't change the fact that she's gone she could be anywhere- Anything could be happening to her right now and i'm here thinking about how i was right?! Stopping in my tracks realizing this was the last place i saw her before she went missing feeling my face heat up and throat start to swell my heart starts to feel heavy with the only to make to pain go away was to cry, running the rest of the way not wanting to seen crying in public i slam open my front door now in the safety of my own home i don't feel the need to cry?...Why did I even need to cry? I only knew her for 2 months and i didnt even like her..?, sinking down the door warping myself within my own arms taking deep breaths my hearts doesn't feel as heavy anymore��doesn't sting the feeling of anger is replaced in its place * I told her… I TOLD HER!* I crash, breaking the silence in the room, shards of glass on the floor in front of me. My lamp was broken into tiny pieces Scattered across my floor “ great…get yourself together..” dragging my feet through the living room I walk into the kitchen to find my broom to clean what was left of my lamp, the broom being in between the fridge and the wall picking it up I hear a knock on my door * How convenient..* setting the broom aside with the knocking getting louder “HOLD ON” I yelled wondering who could it possibly be

Opening the door glancing over my shoulder making sure whomever was there that the door wouldn't be able to see the news I had made for myself “yes can I help-..”

“ I’m backkk”

“Emma?!”

The year is 1998 and an 18-year-old Black girl, is struggling to find her place in the world after the death of her mother and the absence of her father. Her only friend. Apopular but shallow girl, suddenly goes missing. The town is in an uproar, but Eden feels numb, disconnected from everything around her.

Weeks later, the girl reappears, but something is off ..

Song recommendation for the chapter!

4 days now..4 days since she went missing..i cant even grieve in peace it keeps repeating in my head.

“I told you so”

A warm evening on a Wednesday in the 1998 these days were so simple..the days I lived for the birds singing and the sun warming on skin-leaning against the gate to the school I was attending at the time waiting..waiting for her “Hey!!” yelling a girl turning to look at her, Emma, my only (friend)-not from the lack of trying though, i like being by myself even if sometimes it can get lonely by myself since a lot of the time im neither at work or school. Her blonde hair with dyed pink tips whisping in the air, her golden tan skin glowing from the sun “ oh hey emma” i smiled at her with her rapping her arm over me “ guess what i'm doing this weekend?” she giggled while poking me. Honestly, I'm not as close with Emma as many people like to think it's just her mom was once friends with my mom before she died-. Can kinda just feels like she's my friend because shes doing her mom a favor. “umm i don't know..are you going somewhere ?”” not only am i going somewhere..i got a date!” she exclaimed Practically screaming in my ear, pulling away from her shocked to hear such news. It's not like emma didn't get attention from guys i mean she got Double the amount of me, it's just she was always so damn picky with who she would she yes to- do i envy that she literally had a line up on men..maybe but i don't Ponder over it-its not like something i can control. As one of the only black girls in my small town it's not really common for the guys around here to come up to me or even when I go up to them. They usually have a type of blonde straight hair and blue eyes and..I'm clearly not that but focusing on my studies and with my job I don't really think about that type of stuff too often “really?? Who's the lucky guy ?” i giggled while opening the main door of our school for her “ thaaank you..and actually when i tell you don't get mad” she whispered looking away from me “ what? Why would I be mad “” so..basically I met him on a dating website..” i stopped dead in my tracks “what..how are you even able to make an account ? you not even 18 yet” i retorted trying to keep my cool “ come on eden it's really not that big of a deal. I've been talking to him for over 2 weeks now “” that doesnt mean anything..? W-what if he's catfishing you ” with so many words wanting to be said at once i Stutter over my words “ don't be a bitch about it, he's not! were talked on the phone before ”” how am i being a bitch about worrying about your safety? Do you know how many girls go missing from meeting people onl-”“ just shut up already it's only a date ill be fine” is she serious right now? She's serious..” I'll see you after school, later!” she yelled while running over to her other group of friends, this type of behavior is normal for her she doesnt ever listen to what i have to say. Im Her friend, she's not mine we never actually hang out-i just i guess follow her around whenever she tells me to when she's alone-she's never actually like to hang out with me. I follow her around thinking we're finally gonna get to know each other more than just a base level- but then their conveniently someone waiting there or shell around know someone there

The end of the day walking out of my classroom Dodging all the other kids as swiftly as possible hoping down the stairs, I'm really hoping that I could clear up and communicate with her the danger of meeting up with someone from online- not that i should though I'm not her parent Maybe I wasn't taking this serious enough with her. After school we would usually meet by the gas station down the street since I don't really like her friends. It's not like we have any bad blood-i just they make me super uncomfortable. They're always asking super personal questions, like how many people i've slept with, what happened to my parents or going into details about their sex life. I never understood the appeal-of one, telling people about these things, two of sex itself. When i think about it-it honestly makes me sick, i've tried telling them that they don't get it though-i understand wanting to explore your sexual Preferences and wanting to try new things out is normal for our age but i've never felt that way for anyone. “Hello!” the store Clark yelled to me opening the door of the Convenience store. Being here a lot of the time I know my way around walking straight to the back to the drinks station. Scanning over the drinks I grabbed a Gatorade for myself and a Dr Pepper for Emma. She loves them so much it's like the only thing she ever drinks “ Hey sweet thing what you got there ?” someone whispered in my ear wrapping their arms around me. Shoving the person off of me banging into the glass door in front of me to escape their hold. Turing to see that it was one of Emma's friends “ woah girl- chill it's just me “ she giggled throwing her hands up in the air seeing behind her Emma was there laughing with them “ not cool.” i utter pushing past them and paid for my drinks speeding out of the store. Making it out of the store parking lot I hear Emma screaming after me, “ Eden, wait!” I stopped dead in my tracks. I spun around throwing her drink at her hitting the ground as I walked away. Her running after me walking alongside of me ” Eden, wait-come on, it was just a little joke. If it makes you feel any better she's sor-”” I don't care. just leave me alone emma.” i said before she could finish her sentence “ don't you think you're taking this a little too seriously all she did was hug you” she said in response “ Do i really need to explain to you why im pissed off..””i guess so all she did was hug you ?! there's no harm in that you're perfectly fine your not dying are you ? …whatever do what you want “ she said then digging in her pocket grabbing a $1 “ here for the drink” she remarked after Shoving the cash into my hands jogging back over to her friends.

“Why do i need to be dying to be uncomfortable?!? “ screaming throwing a pillow across my room *ping- im outside* i texts came through..it was emma *why?* i replied back, why would she be coming over so late at night its already past 9:30 * just open the door * she typed back walking to the front door. Opening it see her with her sleepover bag “ hiii “ she cheered letting herself in “ what the hell are you doing here”” our sleepover duh!” skipping up the stairs she opens my room door throwing her stuff “ you didn't even ask if you could ..and frankly i don't want to see you right now “ i said picking her things up handing it back to her just for to throw it back “ yeah i don't wanna see your ass Either but FranKLy i wont be here long but i need you to cover for me “” what are you talking about “” ..my date.”” what…. Explain “” i'm only here because my mom would only let me spend the night at your house- i won't be here for long so don't worry "" Are you serious so you're not even here to talk about today? a-And you're still going out with that guy?!”” yes. Not that,that's any of your Business “ she scoffed pulling out makeup from her bag Coating her lashes with mascara. There isn't even any point of trying to arguing with her shes not gonna listen to me she never does..but still i dont want something happening to her grabbing my phone pulling up her mother contact before i could even type one letter she Snatches the Device for my hands “ give it back emma!”” why? So you can ruin my night my god, you're so damn annoying you know that ?”*..this is what i get for trying to be the damn hero* ” I’m just putting your safety in mind dont start Insulting me. I'm not the one who's begging to be a sex slave! ‘I yelled back not getting a response as she gets a texts “ yeah sure. Just keep your mouth shut eden im leaving.” she said grabbing her bags leaving my room Practically stumbling down the stairs..*Wait, is he picking her up?? So she sent this stranger my address?!?* “ You gave him my address??!?!” screaming after her “ let me at least see what he looks like so if something does happ-”” why so you can get off to the image of him later yeah not happening “she chuckles, not taking me Seriously- what the fuck is she talking about. Left speechless, she walked out of the house leaving me in a state of Confusion.
