2. Fast Lane

Bianca's POV
Before….

I undid the two locks to see the smiling Clare I knew. She admired my room before asking questions.

"Who is your partner on the trip?" She asked. I was enlightened by the question, even though the answer wasn't here.

"Well my boy Drew of course!" I replied growing a smile. She walked through the rooms admiring them.

Now…

"I… um…. I thought Alli was on a date with Drew. She said he asked her out." Clare said, turning to me.

"You should leave, Clare." I said.

"No, I mean. It must've been a mishap. She also could've been joking." She said and plastered a smile on her face.

We walked to the couch and called Alli. She leaned over my shoulder to hear until I put it on speaker.

Hello? Alli asked from the speaker.

"Hey Alli, its B and Clarebear. Where are you? Cause…. We were planning a movie night!" She lied. She didn't show it but I could tell she was worried.

"Oh, I'm just here with my date." She replied.

"Who is it?"

"It's just a guy, Clare knows, it's um," She paused for a moment, and then began again, "It's just KC." She was lying, I could tell in her voice.

"Alli," I whispered into the phone bitterly, "You're lying. You can't fool us. Who is it?" I asked. Wow, I sounded like a real bitch… good for me!

Clare kept running her hands through her black curls waiting for the answer to fall. Alli finally sighed, "It's Drew, but please don't kill me!" She pleaded.

I threw the phone across the room and it splattered against the wall.

"B," Clare began walking in front of me as I stood up, "You don't have to do this. Be the bigger person!" I stopped to yell at her.

"I THOUGHT YOU WERE A BITCH! WHY THE SUDDEN CHANGE OF ATTITUDE? YOU DIED YOUR HAIR BLACK AND DRESS FROM BODY CENTRAL AND HOT TOPIC! WHAT THE FUCK?" I yelled.

She sighed and began walking behind me. Luckily I had one of those GPS' on my phone and located Alli.

We ran to the place and inside. I looked outside before getting in the elevator, no one was looking so I pressed the button and rode up.

We stopped the film and turned on the lights. I walked over and hit Drew in the face. "You go find somewhere else to live! Just not with me! I already made a reservation for hell!"

I said before pulling out my gun. But before people could look back Clare turned the lights back off. I already had the aim ready and slowly pulled the trigger.

Clare turned them back on to dim. We saw Drew's body there and ran for bloody hell.

"B, you killed a person. We can't run forever! Someone is going to find out that the movie guy from the stand is knocked out and Drew is dead!" She yelled and ran away.

Clare's POV

I ran to the hotel and knocked on the door. He opened it in PJ's with his hair messed up. "Clare, its 11 and just finished watching a chick flick with B. But I fell asleep halfway, so what's up?" He asked.

"How about you watch a horror about Bianca killing Drew?" I yelled. He pulled me in.

"What did you just say?" He asked.

"Bianca killed Drew for him cheating on her." He starred in my soul, as if it was a lie detector… I hated it.

"Can I stay here, with you guys? I really don't feel comfortable there because Alli was the one he was cheating on her with.

"Sure. Anything for a friend," He smiled at me. "Bianca, get over here, we have a new guest!" He called. She came with a tooth brush in her mouth and her hair pulled back.

I never realized she was so rich she wore silk lining pajamas! Her eyes smiled when she saw me and she ran back to the bathroom.

She came back out and hugged me, of course I hugged back, it was Fiona! (The girl is a HUUUGE hugger)

"So, you're staying here now?" She asked in that voice, the 'I-seem-like-I'm-asking-but-I-really-really-want-a-poptart voice.

"Yes, so if it's okay, I'm going to get my bags really quick." I said. I went back, they were still packed, and the laundry was back so I shoved the clothes into the bag and stood back in the elevator.

Alli walked in next to me crying, I made myself (well tried) hard to notice. She just stood sobbing; I got out and practically ran to the room.

I didn't want to be anywhere near her, she was keeping secrets from B. The door was open and I walked in.

My bags hit the floor as a signal that I was here now. Fiona came out. "Do you want to sleep in the bedroom? I can take the couch."

"No, no, no! Its fine, I barged in here, and I shouldn't get the benefits." I clarified.

"Alright, well I'm going to bed. If you need anything just call okay." She said before giving me a hug and walking to the bedroom.

I carried my bag to the bathroom and changed into a black t-shirt and shorts.

In the morning…

I got up before everyone else. It felt weird to sleep here, because I was just barging in.

I sat on the couch and pretended to sleep so I could see them walk out.

They both walked out at the same time, but I knew Fi, she woke him up. Fi looked perfect as always and… so did Eli.

They came out a minute later having a spoon fight. That's right, a SPOON fight. They always laughed when one turned and the spoons clanked. Fiona reached up and whispered something in his ear and he left her, walking back into the bedroom. She sat on the chair sulking.

I got up and walked to her side. "What did you say?" I asked her. I knew it wasn't my business, but these were my best friends… now.

"I told him I missed it. The cutting. I really miss it; I miss the adrenaline running through my veins."

I looked at her confused; I thought she only had problems drinking. "Did he cut too?" I asked. She nodded.

"Blood brother and sister." She chuckled, holding up her pointer finger. I flinched in disgust.

"You could have HIV."

"I know that, it doesn't mean I care."

"Fi, I'm taking you and him to a doctor, NOW!"

She stood up and began yelling and pointing at me. "You can't just come into our apartment and expect us to do what you want!"

I stood up and got in her face, "It's because I care about the two of you!"

She sat back down and rested her head on the chair, tears beating in her eyes.

"Fiona, please." I began, "Don't cut."

She nodded. I got up and knocked on the bedroom door. It cracked open.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" He stood up and quickly covered his wrist. "I'm sorry Clare." He said, turning his head away.

Fiona slid in-between us and tried to change the subject by making us laugh. "Alright guys, I want a simple fight, no hair pulling, clawing, or using weapons. 1, 2, 3, FIGHT!"

I walked out of the room. "Sorry for coming in like this. I'll go back to Alli… or Bianca." I said before leaving.

I walked down the hallway and knocked on Sav's door. "Tell Alli I'm sorry, and that I'm moving out." I said as he opened the door and greeted me. I ran to Bianca's and told her I was sorry and I was out of her life.

Later that day…

I put my bags down and pushed a black strand behind my ear. I was surrounded by all these strangers, not one familiar face.

"I'm sorry, Clare." A voice said. I turned around to face Eli. He started again. "I just wanted to show Fiona what it could do. I didn't mean to scare you away.

"I know. But with the killing, and Alli being my roommate-" He cut me off.

"She's not! Fiona and I are."

I got up and walked over and sat next to him. "Y'know, since we got here. My life has been nothing but shit."

He put his arm around me and hugged me. I liked it; Fiona's hugs weren't the same. I moved my arms and wrapped them around him.

It was the first hug I've had in a while that meant something. We left with his arm around me, so where did we stand? The last thing I wanted was to get back together, but, oh God! I was leading him on!

He took me out for ice cream next. I was staring and as it got closer, I smashed the cone in his face but didn't break it. I ran causing him to chase after me and catch me.

He wrapped his arms around my stomach and picked me up. I was laughing when he spun me around.

"Clare?" A voice asked. We stopped playing around and faced her. "Nice day isn't it, Fiona?" I asked, changing the subject.

"I told you a year ago what happened right before we went on this trip! Now I wish you did go on that plane!" She said, dropping her bag.

"Fiona! I know what happened! But I can't get over him! He was the nicest person to me!"
"You know what? Forget it."

She said, waving her hand goodbye as she picked up her bag and slid it along her black sleeve.

"Fiona!" I yelled, taking a step after her. "Clare, she's not going anywhere." I turned around and held out my arms in argument.

"She's a Coyne! She could be off to Paris! She's the only friend I have here! I'm sorry I led you on." I mumbled the last part before walking in her direction.

I looked back once more to see him standing in the street, in the exact same spot.

Tears hit my eyes as I saw her white knit cap and her smiling, talking to someone in a car.

I ran next to her side. "Fiona PLEASE forgive me! I'm sorry!" She just ignored me until she reached the light after she finished talking.

"You know what happened!"

"I was going to go, but he stopped me! I love him! It's not something you can just get over Fi!"

Jake's POV

I had just broken up with Imogen, the greatest thing in my life. I told her I remember Clare from when we were young, and she took it horribly.

Maybe this was meant to be.
