Noelle POV
Monday. What better way to describe the worst day of the week. Waking up sucked and classes sucked. Everything sucked.
By the time I had woken up on Monday Reed was already awake and dressed in some jeans and a sweater.
"Morning," She grumbled pretending to be half awake. I could tell she had been awake for hours and I could only wonder why, I mean it's not like we have had a stalker in a while. I shook the thoughts and gathered my shower bag.
In Pemberly there were two options of water temperature, burning hot or freezing cold. I went for burning hot this morning. After my quick shower I got dressed in skinny jeans with a loose white sweater. I straightened my hair and put a white headband in and wore tan leather boots.
I walked back in our room to see Reed already gone. There was a note in her curly script on my desk.
Went to breakfast with Josh, see you there.
3 Reed
I rolled my eyes, Josh and her were as strong as ever and she was so into him, it was really cute. I quickly let go of the smirk on my face and applied my makeup with exact precision. When I was done I looked flawless. I took a step back from my full length mirror. I looked myself up and down deciding I looked acceptable.
I threw my books for classes today in my tan leather over the shoulder bag. I grabbed my phone off of my charger and scrolled threw a few things before throwing it in my pocket.
Walking out of Pemberly towards the dining hall a few girls had joined me. Rose, Portia, and Tiffany followed behind me slightly whispering about the date auction and who had bid on them.
"Noelle," I heard Amberly's annoying voice chirping to my side. She walked quickly towards me. She wore an outfit Kiran would consider matchy-matchy. She had white tights and a baby blue skirt. Her sweater was also white. She had a blue hairpiece in and blue heels that made her almost lose her balance.
I laughed to myself at her sense of smile. It worked for her though; she had a perky personality to go with it.
"Hey A, what's up?" I asked trying to sound happy and not over tired like I actually was.
"Well about more fundraisers, I was thinking of the perfect themed party for this weekend." She said so excited. She had a natural blush in her cheeks and her smile was wide. She acted as if she was trying to win my approval, which she probably was.
"Ok, what are they?" I snapped. I regretted probably sounding too harsh. Her face fell but she picked it back up immediately.
"Well for next weekend, an 80's themed party." She said. I kept silent for a moment her eyes longing an answer. The idea wasn't bad. Retro clothes could be super fun to where, I am sure some of the Billings girls would have fun with it.
"Sounds fun," I said smiling slightly. She shrieked with joy and ran off to tell Constance and someone else. I glanced down at my hand spotting the ring on my finger and chills went through my body. I still had to plan a wedding. Not that Dash and I were going to get married anytime super soon, I still wanted to plan everything. My wedding would be absolutely 100 percent perfect.
"Noelle," I was snapped out of my thought by Jesse who was sitting at the Billings table alone. Josh and Reed were sitting in their own little corner on the side of the cafeteria.
"What," I snapped. I was doing that a lot today. I silently scolded myself for it but ignored the bad feelings I had. I looked at him straightened my sweater and sat down pulling out my phone pretending to be busy.
"Well, I was wondering if you could do me a favor," He asked. I narrowed my eyes and looked at him. He had a devious grin on his face, or it could just be his smile. It was hard to tell.
"What could a little person like me possibly do to help you?" I asked sarcastically. I instantly regretted given that I wasn't supposed to know about him being famous. Of course Reed filled me in on every detail of how he was taking her to some movie premier.
"What? Never mind. I am sure Reed told you that I am taking her out to impress my…parents." He said the confusion from my comment clearing from his face. I smirked and clicked my tongue.
"Your point, I am still waiting for it." I said pretending to be annoyed. I was intrigued, was he going to tell me he was secretly in love with Reed. Or maybe that he still loved Kiran.
He took a deep breath and looked down. He was getting irritated with my attitude. He eyes me skeptically. He was going to confess his love for someone!
"What is it movie star." I blurted and instantly bit my tongue. No one else was there yet so no one heard. His eyes opened wide and he muttered something under his breath. Shit. Shit. Shit. I should not have said that. I recovered from my wavering and stood up straight.
"What the hell," He grumbled. Tiffany, Portia, and Shelby were coming over to the table. They sat down at the other end.
"What are you talking about?" I asked lowering my voice so they wouldn't hear.
"Did you just call me what I think you called me?" He asked anger coming out in his voice.
"What you were being a diva," I played it off as if I didn't know that he really was a star.
"Ok Noelle I am not dumb whatever stereo types you may have heard. How do you know?" He asked. I sighed and rolled my eyes. He was clutching his fork in his hand. His knuckles whitened. If he held on much longer it would bend the fork.
"Ok well first off I know everything and I suspected something and technically guessed, and secondly I was about to assume you got Reed prego and she snapped and confirmed my suspicions." I said. I mean she didn't actually tell me completely.
He growled and pushed his chair out from under him and stomped over to Reed's table. Maybe I should have left out the part about her.
"What's his issue?" Tiffany asked. I rolled my eyes and shrugged.
"He is a diva," I joked and laughed inside.
"He's adorable," London said putting her tray down a few seat away from me Vienne at her side.
"I know right, is he single?" Vienna asked. I shrugged knowing the answer but not saying it.
"Dibs!" London shouted and Vienna pouted.
I looked to the door. Jesse was pulling Reed's arm. She looked irritated and Josh looked upset. But not pissed, he actually bought the whole making his family impressed thing.
"I have to go," I said picking up my bag and following Jesse and Reed out. Her skin looked super pale.
"What the hell?" He asked sounding angry. She had tears forming in her eyes. She spotted and pleaded with her eyes for me to come over.
"Chill diva," I said nastily pulling Jesse away from Reed. His eyes were filled with rage.
"She guessed, it was that or she confronted you and assumed something, ruining what I had with Josh and probably your face." Reed said regaining her composure.
He took a deep breath and looked between the two of us. He slowly calmed down and took a deep breath.
"Ok whatever but I still need your help then." Jesse said. Reed's eyes were still full of emotions. She was scared, angry, upset, glad, confused, and worried. That was something I hadn't seen in a little while.
"What about?" I asked nicer this time. He shot me a look but I ignored it giving him a condescending look back. He backed off and lost some of his confidence. I loved what I could do to people.
"I got this note on my door." He said horror in his eyes. Reed's eyes widened. The worry overcame all the other emotions in her eyes.
"I have to go," She said ducking her face and running back into the cafeteria. I would check that out later.
"What kind of note?" I asked suddenly interested in what was going on.
"A note that told me that at the movie premier I was to kiss Reed in front of a camera. If I don't then someone will get hurt." He said, his face twisting in pain.
"Who?" I asked urgently. He wasn't telling me everything.
"Ki, ok, this person must know who I am and how I feel about Kiran and now they sent me pictures of where she was for the last week at every hour." He said. I was puzzled and didn't know what to say. I remained silent with a blank look on my face. Kiran? I couldn't lose another friend.
"Great, the so called great Noelle Lange, is useless. So glad I came to the bitch who only knows everything because she threatens people." Jesse snapped at me. He walked away again. Oh hell no he didn't just say that to me. Noelle Lange knew everything because she was powerful.
Noelle Lange did not make scenes, and that was what would happen if I reacted to Jesse so I chose not to.
People started to come out of the cafeteria and headed towards the chapel. A tear filled my eye slightly but I wiped it away before it could ruin my make-up. I quickly walked to the chapel folding my arms around my body trying to keep the sick feeling in my stomach from becoming sick outside of my stomach. I thought of that night, of what they took from me and what made me the way I was. I will be avenged for Hailey if it's the last thing I do, no one gets to pull apart my family like that.
I just hoped that Hailey was in a better place, and that ass hole left me a mark so I would remember what happened my whole life. The sick feeling in my stomach came back. I already decided to spend the day in the nurse's office.
My phone vibrated, I hoped it was Dash but it was from an unknown number. I took a breath and opened it.
Hey Noelle, remember me? I was released yesterday and guess what, I still see Hailey in my mind, and I still remember her body against mine. If only she had given in. So sad she had to go, the beautiful girl. I'll be back for you soon Noelle, you might want to watch out for your friends, they are almost as delicious as you.
-James
I was now heading away from the chapel. I was headed towards Pemberly. Screw the nurse's office, and screw James. I needed to be alone. I couldn't stop the tears this time luckily everyone was already in the chapel as it already started.
I swallowed trying to keep my composure. No one knew what happened that awful night when I was so little. So young, and he was so crazy. He ruined my life once already and he was doing it again.
I was in the bathroom and I threw up what little bit of breakfast I had eaten. I wiped dripping mascara from my face and headed back to my small room. I curled up into a blanket and cried more. I had no idea how long I was there, or how bad I looked. I just knew that the tears hadn't stopped and weren't likely to stop soon.
So this chapter started off in a completely different direction and ended here…tell me what you think?
Who is Hailey?
James? What did he leave Noelle with?
What do you think Reed is worried about?
