A/N if you've come here for smut, it is coming soon, I have the chapter written, I just need to work my way up through the story, it will happen in chapter 11 So get psyched.
"I can't believe you caught her," Red said defensively to Jack.
"It was purely instinctive," Jack replied.
"I also can't believe you didn't get out of his armsimmediately," She said now addressing Goldie.
"You weren't there, it was my chance," the blonde said as she smiled.
"That was so cute!" Alex squealed again.
"That was gross can we move on?" Connor said. Goldilocks laughed and touched the next page.
The fifth moment
Goldie liked being at Red's house, she had a fluffy bed and lots of toys, all into Goldie hadn't had since she lost her father. She didn't even mind Red's blabbering too much, she just liked the warmth and beauty the room conveyed.
"So I'm thinking for my wedding Jack and I will have homemade food, don't you think? I mean I'm not trying to over plan but…" Red was cut off, for whatever reason, this particular day was different, and Goldie couldn't take it anymore.
"Can't you talk about something besides Jack? For once?" She begged.
"Why do you care? It's not like you like him or anything!" Red spat back at her.
"Yeah.. I… just get bored of your constant yammering, you never shut up, it's annoying," she stammered trying to hide her deepest secret. That stutter was all Red needed, her eleven year old mind knew exactly what it meant, that Goldie was profoundly lying.
"Well, let's talk about something else," Red said trying to change the subject, "My mother is making me do this new face regimen…" Again Red was cut off.
"Red you're beautiful, much prettier than me, Jack deserves a pretty girl like you, and you don't need some fancy treatments to make you better when you are already the best you can be," Goldilocks said in a small but sincere voice. Red hugged her friend and almost started crying, she had a plan, it was an awfully mean plan and she didn't know how she could force her best friend to suffer. But she loved Jack more than anything, and she wanted him all to herself. If Goldie was around any longer, he would try to switch the engagements. So when Goldie left that night she thought of ways execute her plan, to screw over her best friend, while she cried.
Goldie knew she was right, Jack deserved a pretty girl like Red, not a homely little weirdo like her. When she reached her house, she knew she was late, and had been playing with Jack and the boys earlier that day, she knew her mother would be angry and braced herself for the beating of a lifetime. And sure enough there was her mother sitting in the dining room and she began to speak.
"All I ever wanted was a perfect daughter, with normal hair and arms and legs. But I got you, an ugly, lanky, awful girl like you, and as much as I try to beat your uniqueness out of you I can't seem to," she said as she stalked towards her daughter. Goldie knew what she meant, she had scars on her arms and legs from where her mother had attacked her with a knife, and even that hadn't stopped the rambunctious girl. "You are an awful girl and I hope you know that you are worthless and unlovable!" she shouted at the poor girl as she began to hit her over and over again until she stood up.
"I know that, I know everything, i'm unloved and I always will be!" she ran up to the attic window and stood on the ledge. "I'm done living where I know I'll never have a life better than I have now!" Goldie said through her tears as she let herself fall out the window. But something deep inside Goldie didn't want her to die, something knew she had something more to do, something made her flip through the air and land on her feet on the grass. And she ran, tears hitting her face as she ran and ran and ran.
She reached Red's house, it was the only place she could think to go. Red let her in after seeing the tears in her eyes. Red knew what she was about to was despicable, to her broken down best friend, but she did it anyway.
"Goldie, Jack wanted me to give this to you," Red said as she handed the sniffling blonde a letter. Goldie took the letter and her heart nearly leapt out of her chest. She stood up abruptly.
"I have to go Red," she said with a smile as she headed towards the door.
"Wait!" Red said, the next part of her awful plan was about to be put into motion. "Have something to eat before you go," she offered Goldie a plate of cookies, who ate a few and then left the house and walked out into the early, early morning. But what Goldie didn't know was that those cookies were drugged and the letter she just received wasn't from Jack. And that as she walked to a house in the woods, she was walking towards a whole new life.
She entered the house but suddenly she felt woozy, and everything was spinning and she couldn't control herself. She flailed about, destroying most everything in the house. Somehow she stumbled her way up the stairs and collapsed on a bed. She awoke to three angry bears standing over her, she shrieked and tried to get away but she was no match for bears. She managed to shove her way out of their grasp, and for the second time in twenty-four hours, jumped out a window. This time she wasn't as fortunate, the bears had broken her arm, and the fall broke her leg. But she knew that she needed to run, so she pulled herself up and hobbled away as fast as she could. And though everything seemed bleak and awful, that was a day of rebirth for Goldilocks.
