Pretty Little Liars
Chapter 1:
BUMP IN THE NIGHT
"Aria!" I heard Ali call
I turned around just in time to see someone run up behind her and take her away.
"Ali! No! ALI! Let her go!" I yelled at the black hooded figure running
I started running so fast I had to stop and catch my breath as I watched my best friend being dragged away
I sat up in bed, panting. I got up and went to the bathroom locking myself in. I looked in the mirror at myself and turned the water on. Splashing my face with water and tucking my messy hair behind my ears.
I opened the bathroom door and heard something crash.
"Mike?" I called down the stairs
I heard the front door open.
"Mike? Mike, if it's you stop. It isn't funny."
Mike opened his door rubbing his eyes.
"What do you want?" Mike asked
I shushed him and told him to listen. We sat there in silence for a minute.
"You're crazy, go back to bed. I don't hear anything." Mike left the hallway and shut his door.
I went back to my room and closed the door slowly. I climbed into bed and pulled the covers up to my chest closing my eyes.
Suddenly my phone rang and I jumped. I looked at the screen of my phone.
Blocked number? Who would be calling me with a blocked number at 4 o'clock in the morning?
I answered it.
Hello? I asked
Silence
"Okay, well if you aren't going to answer then I'm not staying on." I hung up the phone only to get a text from an unknown number.
It read: Watch your back-A
I dropped my phone and panicked. I started shaking as I dialed Spencer's number.
"Hi, you've reached Spencer, can't get to the phone, you know what to do after the beep."
I set my phone down as I rolled over with the vivid pictures and sounds stuck in my head. I laid there until my eyes got heavy and I dreamed the same dream 12 more times.
Chapter 2:
NO MORE FEAR
The prissy girly days were over, I swore to it. I needed to step up and take a stand. I don't want to look like a cliché like the other girls. I want to stand out, and I didn't really care what the other girls thought. My style now was classified as gothic with a dash of rock n roll as Emily explained it.
"Aria? Aria!" Mona said coming down the hallway.
"Oh God, just leave me alone." I thought.
"Aria, are you okay?" Mona asked.
"Just as fine as a junior girl's life can get" I replied
"Oh…" She whispered quietly her face turning to a frown.
"Well, I have to go, Spencer is waiting for me at the library." I lied.
"Okay, see you later" she smiled and turned to walk away.
"God, I hope not…" I thought to myself.
Even though Mona was forgiven by all of the other girls since confessing to being "A" that didn't mean I was. Yes, I might have faked forgiving her. But was I guilty about faking it? Absolutely not. She did a very wrong thing and I can't just pick up and forgive you if you go through that much to hurt my friends and me.
As I walked outside I was hit with a huge gust of wind that almost knocked me down. I caught my balance and covered my eyes looking up into the sunny sky that was progressively becoming greyer. How amazing my luck was today. I had to walk home in the rain. And I was wearing my new shoes. I sat down on the steps and unbuckled my strappy black wedges. As I ran down the steps looking both ways before running across the street I came to a sharp stop as I got the feeling of someone staring at me. I looked around at the bushes, trees, and cars but didn't see anything. Until I saw out of my peripheral vision a black figure dodging quickly. My phone suddenly chirped three times alerting me that I had received a text message.
Now you see me, now you don't-A
As a chill ran up my spine, a car honked its horn at me. Reminding me I was standing in the middle of the road.
"Sorry!" I yelled as I jogged to the other side.
Aria, you truly are an idiot.
The text from "A" did give me the chills but only because I find it extremely creepy that someone stares at you and spends their time just staring at you. She/he used to scare me but not anymore. They have completely scared me to the point where nothing scares me anymore.
Fear is only something we think can control us but it can't
