Sorry for the confusion from last chap. I know that most of people have watched and loved the 2013 version with Chloe and I've had as well, but it didn't just clicked for me. It couldn't. For me, I've grown up watching Sissy Spacek as Carrie as a teenager. And I loved it ever since. And even if Tina wasn't much into the movie, I've decided to add the least characters that hadn't been in the movie than of the book.

And I've read the book as well this past fall, which I've found it, most disturbing and evil...Not that much scary, but disturbing. And later, I've read another book called The Last girl Standing which it was focused on high school reunion and friends dealing with a death of a friend from many years until it was no way out of getting away from it.

So, I had a little idea, coming along the way..

...

Book nerds and shy teenagers had never had it easy, they've always had to work out their way to fit in the world. Unlike the popular and beautiful ones, when everything seemed to be easy for them. Even if they were cruel and powerfull to get away from everything, from the humiliation and the pain.

Sue Snell had known about it, at first as she sat down behind her desk and read the newspaper with a sigh. When she became and been accepted as a popular and beautiful one and even if it had been through, Chris Hargensen's own clique of friends. One weak and shy girl, against a bunch of friends.

One shy girl, like Carrie White. A girl who had often hid away through her books or right to the back desk and away from everyone at class. With her head and long hair down to hide her face. She did nothing to them, not a damn thing, at all. And yet, they decided to punish her when she was crying, hysterically, when she thought she was dying and bleeding for the first time, at the showers when they were all getting to dress up before going to the next class. But who gets their period at this late, when they could get it at pre-adolescence time? She did. But not much of her sister, Tiffany. Sue remembered when her sister when she have had her first period and it had been quite late, when she had reached up to be sixteen, just a few years older than she had when she had been twelve.

When she had her share of nightmares, when she relived over and over again, the prom. And the break-up that had came over with Tommy, once she had told him the truth behind the reason of the laughing matter behind Carrie and from the way that she had been involved before onto the number laughing jokes with Chris Hargensen and with the other girls.

And how furious he had been. She had told him, only a few days after graduation, how she felt guilty over humiliating Carrie, but not that it almost send her through an unforgattable turmoil and to which it did end up badly at prom night. And how fast he did reacted when she told him about Carrie. Sue could tell, at that time, that he must have had developped feelings over the silent girl. Which it did crushed Sue's teenaged heart. Tommy had been at his parents's place and had been packing to go and move to California and close to the sun. He had decided to give himself a new fresh start and away from here. It was over there in California, where the sun and weather had never disappointed anyone. He had made many applications for undergoing universities which a few had decided to pick him up, but Tommy had decided to go in California. But as a way to get away from everything. He needed to stop thinking about the prom, about what future he and Sue had been planned to do together. And about Carrie. How he had failed her to make her, at least feel like she was worth to anybody. To him, from what Sue had figured about. And not to mention, he did fell for her.

"Damn it, Sue!" He replied back angrily as he zipped back his athlete bag that laid onto his bed while she just stood right away and close to the doorway where the door had been left open wide. She was startled back at the tone of his voice.

"I'm sorry-"

"Sorry? You're sorry? It's not at me, that you should be saying that!" Tommy whirled back up his head towards her shaken face."But to Carrie! She isn't here anymore to hear any of your bullshit, this time.." He was frustrated and deceived. Not to mention, deeply chagrined as his eyes looked bloodshed as he hadn't slept at all, ever since that night. Who knew that weird girl had impacted up his life, even at eighteen year old? Strongly, even at this age. It was a strong feeling that not even Sue could understand any of it back then.

"I know it's my fault!" She cried back, feeling almost helpless by standing up here."I've should have had tried harder onto stopping Chris and Billy from doing it. I only wanted Carrie to have a great evening and paying the mistake we've made. That I've made. Redeeming myself because I've felt so guilty. That I've made by being stupid from encouraging myself onto mockin her.." She admitted back. "I know, it's my fault, Tommy.." She looked around the place as if she wanted to get away or to find a way to escape everything, even she had known that deep down, she couldn't get away. All of her friends were slowly moving on or either getting out of the country, including Chris and Norma. And worse, Tommy was moving away as well or mostly, to not hurt or damage anything that might be coming onto his way.

"Say something!" Sue urged him to answer back when he remained there across of his bed with his bag zipped off. His silence was starting to torture her. It would have been better if he yelled up or smashed something through her way. At least, he would have had reacted back.

"I think, there isn't anything to say..Not much to say for the matter of it.." He managed to blurt out the few words he could. However, he couldn't stare at her back. As if he believed that she was guilty of something. Which she thought back with Carrie's situation.

"What are you saying? That you want to break-up?" Sue couldn't believe it, but his silence was enough to understand that it was over that his heart had turned cold here even if he didn't looked like he liked it. He was broken by it. The decision he had to take, it had been hard to swallow it. Damn, he couldn't even look at Sue, at all. As if he was ashamed of himself.

"Tommy, look at me.." She urged him back in a haste."Please, tell me..That you're not breaking up with me.." She added up back as her vocal cords had almost wanted to breakdown. Almost demanding him to explain himself. After a few minutes of calming himself down, he shook up his long curly blond locks and dropped out a shaken sigh when he faced her demanding blue eyes.

"Sue.." He blurted out as he swallowed down his strenght."I think it's better we stop, whatever is between us. It might be better if we end up everything before either of us has any regrets here.." Of course, he had to say that. Not only, he had been angry at her or at anybody. But to himself as well. He felt like he had failed Carrie, back at that night. He needed time to think and it was away from everything. Everything from High school Bates, away from Chamberlain. All of it. And including her. That day was the last time that she had seen him. He told her to not wait for him even if she wanted to. And yet, ten years had passed and she finally had managed to move on. Despite having to feel the guilt.

Even if it had been hard. George, who had started to work as a deputy over the Sheriff Departement here, had told Sue that Tommy had managed to contact him as he told through his letters that he had moved away after a couple years. He started up college, went through university and gotten through a written deal with a few sports magazines before he wandered up into a home edition and publishing his first book after he got a deal with a agent and with a publisher at the mid-eighties, at some home edition somewhere in California. San Diego. She wasn't sure about that. However, his first book had came out last year. He had always loved to write down a few poems throughout high school that running sports wasn't his much of his thing, even if he had done to stay active and to attract the girls, including her. Even, when he couldn't bring up his homework in time, once because of a lame excuse and had told another guy to do his homework instead of him which the teacher had proudly talked about right in front of the entire class. Trying to humiliate him.

Which everybody were playing around, silently and were not quite paying any attention to it. Until, Carrie had simply said it was 'beautiful.' with a quiet voice. It turned out that she did tried to defend him by raising up a bit of her voice. Maybe that's where it started. The sympathy that Tommy had started to felt for her, and maybe even more. Sue wasn't sure if he did kiss her or not. But it didn't mattered, anymore. Maybe, he did kissed her, at that night. I mean, Rhonda had told her that somehow, Tommy's lips had meet Carrie's back at that night, and for sure, when you're dating someone you're not supposed to cheat even if you asked your boyfriend to take the most creepiest girl of the school to prom instead of yourself. And that girl was Carrie White. The very same one who disappeared after the prom had gotten wrong. All thanks to Chris and her little too big personality to bare.

And now that bitch had kids with Billy as it had been a curse. A curse that Sue had silenced wished for her to understand and learn. That bitch, Chris would need to put her thoughts to her children first before her own person.

And especially when Tina Blake's body had been found and stabbed into the most horrifying way after she had won Miss America's award, throughtout the front page from the newspaper she held and read. The revealation said she had bben murdered after winning the award and after that everybody had left around when the ceremony was over, it was only by then when the janitor had discovered that the very last person who left up the light on was the the new queen to be. Or had been. Tina Blake. Once a red haired girl but had dyed her hair onto brown. Little brunettes were being taking more seriously than red heads had been before and Tina had always hated her red locks from many years before stating it shown her stupid freckles from her own bridge of her pony nose. She always complained and whined about it before.

However, she wouldn't have to complain about it, anymore. As Sue ran her eyes throughtout the page from her desk table and before class could start.

The First new miss America from Chamberlain had been found dead, early this morning. Supposedly had been from a revenge act? The police hadn't known about it either, if it was an act of revenge or not. They kept on researching for more clues which it would take more days to come. And something was telling Sue, that Tina wasn't the only one to come out. Ever since Carrie White had mysteriously left, and Margaret White had been locked into psychiatrict care. Nothing had happened later on, until this matter had happened. Tommy needed to know about it, unless if he had hiven her a clue where he had been hidden from these years.

Carrie needed to know about it as well. Where telekiness was known about around which Sue seemed to know about it now. The books from what the library woman had told her about, many years ago and borrowed when Carrie was looking or trying to escape gym class with an excuse that Miss Collins had made of. These books were about telekiness. The possibility of being able to move things with your mind. Which had been impossible before, but turned out to be true. After all, Carrie did broke up a few windows into pieces when she pushed out an pitched scream that many teens weren't able to forget by now. Including herself. And Tommy as well.

But it was only that, from that point that Carrie had made, cause Tina Blake's murder had been with someone else who also had the same power as Carrie. But who? It couldn't have had been Carrie White. She had vanished from many years ago, unless she wanted revenge. With the knowledge she had earned from the books she read about, Sue could almost suspect that Carrie had been around this murder in some way.

...

"Maybe it's a prank, I mean, it could have been everybody..You know men.." Jennifer had explained back when Carrie had explained about the picture after she came back to the receptionist picture. The one where Tina Blake had found her death under horrific and strange situation.

"How can you tell that it could be a man?"

"I don't. It's just from the way it had been sent to you.." Or wasn't? Or mostly, it had been a reminder?

"You mean, like a reminder?" Carrie had gave Jennifer a weird glance right back to the brunette. Jennifer had tried to find the right words to say back at her, only to fail. Or more like she had pushed it too hard.

"I didn't meant that.."

"I know what you've meant.." Carrie had pushed off from the desk backing up away from Jennifer's supporting help.

"I think you should gave it to the cops. Call SDPD, they'll help you.." Jennifer had replied back to Carrie's questionning stare. Why bring out the cops onto this stupid prank? When nobody would ever consider her sane enough after what she'll tell as a story here. Tell them that it all started by a stupid prank from high school. Bullies, who deserved nothing better but to pay off their messes. Creepy Carrie, Creepy Carrie. She got her Period! Period!

"As if they would.." She mumbled back under her breath. How many cops would certainly give a damn about a woman's death who had been a bully? Nobody takes a woman's death, seriously. Unless, it was by domestic violence.

"Carrie-"

"Just drop it, Jen." Carrie had waved back as she put the picture through her pocket and jogged back away. More as if she wanted to get away from here."I've got work to do, now."

"Okay. But don't stay too long. Tonight, Gracie, Jane and I were inviting you to have a few drinks over." Which it made the strawberry blond haired woman stop her tracks for a second and turned around back to Jennifer. Wide strucked as she stood up onto her guard.

"Drinks?"

"Yup. At Delores's bar. We've planned to go, remember?" Jennifer had recalled back but it didn't gave Carrie any clues to it.

"I don't wanna to get drunk.." Not that she was a good drinker. Which she wasn't. But she didn't liked the feeling it gave her after the morning later. How crap she had felt much later after an hangover as it had been Jennifer's and Grace's fault, a long time ago. Through her early years to nursing school. And she didn't liked the way they had played tricks with her. Even if it meant to help onto loosen up a bit.

"Who says you would? And besides, we'll need a driver around in case we would be too lousy to handle.."

"Yeah, sure..See ya.." Carrie waved back and moved away throughtout the hallway. She wasn't ready to face off the battles of her past life. She has moved on, and after the awfully way the prom had taken. And how close she had been by losing up all control. It could have had happened, but it didn't.

Or else, she would have had been taken as a murderer. And yet, Tina Blake had found its death and more would be about to come. But who would try and kill them, when she could have had. After all, she had the power. Only she did stop from using it, or else it would hurt her brain cells. Oh God. Carrie remembered how Tina, once red head haired before had punched into her face with her food, after she slippered walking through her. How bad she had been after her food had been smashed up to her face. As it had been like any other day.

"Watch, where you're going, freak!" Tina had said back as she and a few laughing friends of hers were walking out to their ways, leaving her fully fleashed with her food all of her face. And now, to see or to hear that she had died it almost made her feel good. No. It shouldn't! Any bullies had their own share of stories, like Sue. The brunette had tried to be nice after the mess she made once and had the heart to correct her mistakes, like sending her boyfriend to invite her instead. Tommy had been nice and even more comfortable when he had gotten to know more about her. That she wasn't a freak as many others had stated her to be with her controlling and religious mother. He got to see, the real her throughtout the disguise deep skin in into. Which she almost let her heart open to him, even if he was taken by someone else. But, if he had, then how come had he kissed her as they've both shared their first dance? Maybe there was something more in it. He could had fall for her? Love her?

With the way he looked down at her when the blood bucket had been released and fell onto her. Oh God. She almost had forgotten his reaction when she had been caught up into her own fantasy and blamed everyone and including him into tricking her. At the prom, which she fleed away after releasing out her anger. Anger that exploded the windows of the gymnastic stadium where everybody were at this unforgettable night. And the way Norma Watson had been laughing were everybody stood in shock. Which she believed they have had laughing at her. But didn't. But what had happened much later on, was the most devastating. Her mother was ready to kill her, once she came back at home. When she needed her mother's support. Margaret had held her, with comfort with mumblering her intelligeble wishing prayers when she felt a cold feeling running through the bare spot of her back. She had been stabbed. Stabbed to death by her own flesh blood and the one who warned and did the best she could have done, only it was time to become a woman that things had changed, so fast.

And yet, Margaret should have warn her up about this part of becoming a woman. Because back then, she was still a young frightened girl but not yet a woman. Lost and alone. However, it wasn't any of that, she wouldn't have had brought up here. Alive, and pretty but not to mention that she had started a new life here. If it wasn't for the concerned neighbours whom had heard the fights and the screams between Carrie and Margaret back at the afterneath of the prom. Carrie didn't really remembered much after she woken up at the hospital, laying onto her bed and with freshed bandage that had been attatched and surrounded her throughtout her waist. A weird beeping sound that had been her heartbeat was heard throughtout the place. Doctors and nurses had told her that one minute of away from the ambulance and she would have had died from bleeding out to death. And as for Margaret, the rescuers had found her tied up to the wall as a cross sign with knives through her palms and feet, not to mention one knife was found close to her chest where the broken white color of her nightgown had managed to protected her. Which had left the strawberry long haired young woman bleached up to her pale skin. It was the power.

Did she really had done that? Tried to crucify her own mother to the wall? Unless, it was the knownweldge of her own power that had made her done that? Oh God. Was she capable of killing? Under the pressure of her own anger?

However, Margaret White had managed to survive and she had been away when social services had been alarmed. Not to mention police the rest of the story was history. Carrie had made through living and moved away from Chamberlain. Luckily, she had been. She managed to move away without even saying goodbye to anybody. How, Tommy Ross must have been heartbroken to have had never see her again. Probably for the best.

Wake up Carrie, and go to work! But she stopped at the hallway and leaned over to the wall. Taking deep breaths. She brought up her hand to calm down her heart which it had been running out loud, and ready to jump out. Here, she was saving lives not taking them away. No. She couldn't be a murderer. Not a murderer. Not a killer, but maybe a sinner. After all, everyone sinned in their lives. Like everyday. Which it was why Jesus had died for. In order for people to not go to hell. Like herself. With thoughts of what it would have had occured if the killing had been taken place through the prom if it did happen back then. If she had released all the anger throughtout her power. And the way she almost wished that a shortime romance with Tommy could have had occured as well. Or maybe teaching these girls a lesson for humiliating her back at the shower joke. Making both Chris and Norma and Sue or many others girls if. What if.. She brought up her tightened up hands throughtout her hair and cluctched her eyes shut when she repeated herself, over and over. She wasn't a murderer. Her soul belonged to hers not to anybody else. She wasn't a . No. No. No!

"Nooo!" Carrie had cried out through her frightened tone..

Flex..

"Noooo!" She had broken out, loudly to make the doors of the isolation section open in a pitching and loud sound and as wide to make the dead people awaken.Flex.. Tearjacked, Carrie had caught herself through the act as she let out a surprising gasping sound through her mouth. She was strucked by the sudden move she've made on her own. All the power of what her frustration could made her do. Bad things. Her mind made her do it. On its own.

The power. And even if she hadn't used it up from many years ago, it was still there in her blood. Through her mind.

And ready to do bad things if she couldn't control them.

...

He couldn't possibly remember the last time, when he felt so satisfied. It had been many years. He had left but he was once back onto town and the power still made him strong. He was the most strongest person ever to have had the power of the mind and to destroy people.

Just like his precious flesh of blood would have been. Stronger than him.

People whom had hurted the people he loved and couldn't saved from getting hurt. But now, it was different. He was back and ready to eliminate them one by one. This woman, Tina Blake had been nothing but easy to kill. No fun as the woman had went into panicking mode, way too much faster than he expected. He watched the news where an new crowned Miss America had been found dead, a few days ago inside of her dressing room as he watched the news from the coffee restaurant and the only one left at Maine. Where he sipped his coffee and silently ate his lunch. With the ancherwoman, origin from asian descent was explaining the terrifying news of Tina Blake's sudden and tragic death, a few days ago. Cops had been invastigating the crime scene taking flashing pictures and surrounded the scene with yellow tapes as they've done their work, and send whatever evidence they could to the lab, but with the AIDS virus taking too much place through it, it would largedly taking much time to figure out that he had been around. When Blake had died.

Which it would make his work, more easier and especially when he gotten rid of the knife and far away through the ocean. Unless, they might discover his fingerprints, if had they been more smart than to focus over a delirious virus that had killed a thounsands of men. And while he had time to do, the better it would be. Nobody would notice his working plan.

After all, he better not waste the list as he stated they were others to come.

...

California, San Diego.

Through the hidden dark of the night, Sean had tracked Lily's whearbroots from afar as she walked down onto the street as her partner Cole walked out at first... Tommy Ross had tried to complete back through the blank page here by standing right in front of his computer. However, his fingers felt like they didn't wanted to work today. They were standing up at the thin air. Call it, writer block. His mind felt like stucked right here as his eyes felt like they wanted to close up with tiredness. He leaned back over his chair and brought up his hands to his face trying to wipe off the fatigue he had felt over. That's what you get for waking up at three or five o clock, and there you are at three o clock of the afternoon, sitting up like a total loser.

He didn't remembered much whatever time he had woken up and moved up to his computer. Only, he needed to come up to find a new story for his characters to be together. Sean Morgan and Olivia, 'Lily' Chien. Only Sean Morgan's character made him think of a person he didn't or wished to save. Or didn't had the chance to do it, fairly enough and that's how Sean Morgan's character had come up alive through the pages. Carrie White, had been the inspiration for his dark and mysterious character.

Carrie White. For a weird instinct, he only felt the need to write it and make Sean's character even more resenting and destroyed. A man who had been fighting off to keep his humanity throughtout the killings he had done as a monster. As a part of him had been trashed by the people he trusted and to which he put his life on hold as a soldier. A new power had been unleashed right through him as he had become a monster to protect himself from battles. Which he did volunteered into going and when the side effects had gotten him through the wrong and disastrious ways, it was already too late for him to go back. As he was destined to end up alone throughtout the world. And to stay hidden away from everyone. Even if it meant to chose and safe people at darkness time, and disappear through the next time. However, when Sean had been exposed and been seen the lateless witness, Olivia 'Lily' Chien. A young teenage woman whose older sister Susanna had been assasinated through her eyes and took fleed away from the men whom had killed her sister, until Sean had come along. Killing both of them without an hesitation under Lily's frightened eyes. She could've had ran away but didn't, cause deep inside of the beast and dangerous evil stare, there was a man struggling to keep his humanity through saving the innocent people. And which led to something more and even more attractive relationship in the few years to come.

And how much of a struggle it had been for Sean to stay away from Lily, whose changing career from law firm to law enforcement had made things even more harder for them both. Even if it meant for the risen blossom of their relationship. A man whose life had been stolen, he had been a medic from working hardship long hours to an uncompromised soldier to a monster. A price that Sean would have to keep the burden onto his shoulders as long as he keeps onto liviing. And to which Lily had vowedly protected him from any harm of the men kind or whatever danger had awaited for him. For them both as long they were both together. Despite their differencies. As she was standing throughtout the law as a detective woman into the light whose strenght didn't scared her, while he was hidden away at the shadows and through the dark. Sean was side strucked by her strength and how strong Lily wanted to protect him and even if it meant to lose her life in the name of love for him. The storyline of his characters had only meant to be for one and only one book, but his publisher agent had demanded to know more about these two characters and how far, people and generally women from different ages had loved both Sean and Lily's relationship and wanted to know more to come. Which Tommy had decided to make it as a book series to come away. The first one had made a few dollars, had been published as a hardcore cover and the next as a paperback in the few months to come. Which it made more money. The second had been just released last spring and to which it didn't disappointed the fans over. However, there he was struggling with working out onto his third book. And wasn't satisfied about it. Call it; writer's block. His third one was about..Or else he tried express his choice of words of how to express Lily's struggling feelings and the willing to keep Sean's safety, a priority and make him realize the hardship of her on protecting him from exposure. How hard it had been for her to keep Sean's living existence a secret from everyone from the authorities, from the people she worked with and with the dark secret her older sister kept from anybody, including her family and elder brother and younger sisters. And especially Lily who had to carry the guilt of her sister's death for a very longtime. Too hard to handle, the curly blond haired man ran his hand over the back of his head, almost consumed from the fatigue.

To which Tommy had found it too much hard to write it down onto the screen. To write Lily's sacrifices onto loving and protecting Sean. The two others books had sounded so easy to express over as they've both started as friends and secret partners through crime, but when it came to make their relationship go up into the next level, it had been hard and pressured. He felt stressed. From the way his last book ended with a cliffhanger that surprised the fans and brought up a few male ones as well. Maybe, I've should had kept it for the next or the fifth one.. Oh crap. He was worried he was going too fast throughtout the story. After all these science, horrors or fantasies fiction novels could go on, forever unless, he goes and kills the characters off the pages. To spare the drama. No kidding. With a moan, Tommy just shook his head and saved the rest of his document into his computer, telling himself to make a copy to his own disk.

Just like it had happened with Carrie? Did anyone around at the ball had been spared her, spared the bucket of blood out of its way? Nobody did saved her. He hadn't had the courage either when she accused him, angrily and cried on how she thought of him as a different than of the others around. A girl whom he had started to feel comfortable and close to like. Like?

Seriously. Get your fucking ass up, Ross! Tommy pushed himself up from his chair and stood up to good at the kitchen. Get some coffee. Unless there's none of it. Or maybe, he should be taking a shower or calling his agent that he'd be taking a few days off. But couldn't find the strength to do it. Felt like a pussy, here.

Why? And how could he had fell for a girl whom he barely had known for a few hours and later, let her fleed away when she had been deceived and tricked by everyone through the gym. Including Chris and Billy. He was young and weird, not to mention a little too nice and quite sturborn. And yet, he fell for Carrie. Oh God. Well as a seventeen year old guy, hormones changes were fast to step back. And even if he had been with Sue, for a couple of months before. And broken up. But a little something had occured up when he laid eyes on Carrie. Something had burned through him. He saw a young and beautiful woman when she came out of the house.

Who could've had known that the ugly duckling was in fact hiding up a pretty swan behind all that disguise? Hidden from all these childlish little sailor girl clothes, Carrie was in fact a pretty cute girl. It so much, it almost cost his breath away. With the way she smiled at him, back at that night, she was simply beautiful to him. How she felt uneasy towards him when he held her, her hand onto his shoulder while the other held his hand when the other laid onto her bare back as they slowly danced to the music. How crazy, it must had been for him and especially when his heart was racing up and fast. Especially when she kept pushing herself onto the guilt, of not doing doing anything right. Can't think straight. Can't do the right thing or dance and then, came the kiss. Which it had been unexpected.

He did kissed her, and he liked it but had left her stunned. But as a good way. Which it meant that she might have had liked it as well. Even, Sean and Lily hadn't had their first kiss yet as an hidden and secret couple. He had many kisses with women. Like Sue and many other women, but then it surprised him to have had the guts to kiss Carrie. Which he did liked it. Weird. He wasn't anymore the seventeen year old man he used to be. But now a grown man. An succesful young writer that made many women and men fantasize about. About a world that made them forget about the AIDS epedemic and how it scarred many men and women to come.

And how sexual relationships could be taken now. Unless, it would turned out to be forbidden for men to explore. If Sean and Lily's relationship weren't much of a struggle and the struggle to be together, his books wouldn't have been a hit. But it wouldn't have been if Carrie wasn't his inspiration. How it burned him to not have been able to express his feelings up to her back at that night. Surely, Sue would had understood his feelings, but with what he had learned later on, he had been too much angry to listen and that ending everything they've started was probably for the best. All because of a girl he had barely known and had begun to like and maybe to love. To love? Come on..Tommy had never fell for someone he had begun to know. However, maybe it was love by first sight.

You're really gonna buy that? You're smarter than you think. Just forget about her. She's just a ghost hauntening your mind, for many years. But he just couldn't. He couldn't foget about Carrie White. His heart hadn't from many years ago. Forgetting about the coffee, Tommy walked up to the tiny bathroom and came up to the sink and turned open the facets as water came in as he splashed water to his face, thinking it could wake him out of his memories. Out of Carrie from his mind. A girl whom he had tried to find after she had dissapeared from the prom. Pretty much like Prince Charming from Cinderella, when he was the one who found the lost glass slipper and went throughtout the entire village to find the mysterious woman which he did in the fairytale. But not much for Tommy, cause his own Cinderella had still remained missing. She was gone to this world. And mostly broken up with Sue because of that. He fell in love with another girl, and to which he couldn't admitt to himself or to anyone. Just like Lily had slowly discovered to be falling for Sean. Horw much guilt, he did felt for Carrie when she was gone after leaving the prom with big blood.

He felt speechless.

Stop blaming yourself! You didn't do anything wrong! But he sure did. He could have done much more to help her. Tommy rose back to the mirror to see himself as the man coming close into his thirties, who stood onto the reflection looked drenched and exhausted from the many sleepless nights he went through, lately by trying to find a good way to write his book. His curly blond hair was short as a growning beard was starting to cover up his square and strong jaw. Lean as he was like his teens years and strong through his broad shoulders from hard work from running and had been throughtout the lacrosse team. His muscles were showning up through his white tank top here where hair had been starting to grown out more throughtout his chest. Something he should've had been proud of, but his tired blue eyes didn't shown up the fierce feeling he once had before. He dropoped his head back down as he shut his eyes closed, cursing to himself as he held himself to the sink with shame.

He could have told her that he loved her. Even if it was too fast to feel and admit. It felt so stupid but exciting. He did felt that. This attractive love feeling before and now, still. He loved he loved Carrie for the true woman she was before, however, it was already too late to comeback into the past. He left Chamberlain, and vowed to never comeback.

Until the phone had rang through the small kitchenette and up to the wall. Tommy had turned off the faucets with a groan and forced his his legs waliking up his dark sweatpants back to the kitchenette as he grabbed up hold the phone and hang it to his ear.

"Yeah? This is Ross household and speaking up, here.."

"Tommy? This is George!" George? It had been awhile since he've heard of his friend from school ever since he moved out from town. George had taken up a job through the law enforcement and worked into the Sherriff Department in Maine. He and Frieda had gotten married from he told Tommy through the letters they've exchanged and how far things had slowly moved on. People went back onto their lives, with Frieda being a teacher, Norma working with the newspaper, Sue being a school counseling at their own old school, Billy, working over the garage and Chris, who was stuck at home with crying babies wanted to purse a law career and to be as rich like her father. It was such an unrealistic fate to overcome. He even heard that she had gotten fat and wasted..When as a lawyer, you needed to be determinated and strong willing even as a woman. Way more stronger than you could give.

"Hiya.." Tommy had blurted out when he dragged up his hand to his forehead, tiredly. Might need a cup of hot coffee, if he could drag his ass over to the coffee maker and go back to work onto his upcoming novel.

"Look, I've got some bad news. Tina Blake is dead.." He could hear George moaning over the phone, as he seemed to have had spend the entire night awake. Tommy blinked back up, jerked up awake. Tina Blake, dead? How?

"Barely had known her.." He lied back to his once friend. He didn't quite remembered much of Tina. Other than she had red hair before and used to hang out with Sue, many years ago. She always had joked that she wanted to be Miss America from Chamberlain. The first one from this awfull godforsaken town.

"I know, but Sue did and I believe that she didn't die from natural causes..You see, someone other than the janitor had been inside of her dressing room..." Damn right. Now, Tommy had known of not trying to go throughtout his work with his once friends, and even George was his friend. He wanted other people go inform and get to know about law enforcement. He took notes from detectives and police people either if there were from men or womaen. Doctors and scientists. He had contacts over the system with the people he've meet. His desk was filled with notes and drawnings and tapes he had recorded from true and crime invastigations borrowed from the law enforcement with permisson. Despite being shy of ever making his next novels go through romance and even more disgusting. After all, it wouldn't be a modern day tale of Beauty and the beast, if there weren't for a woman who wasn't able to tame the beast away from a man's heart. How close, he wanted to comfort Carrie's heart for a second thought. If he had the guts, from before.

"What are you saying?" He tried to say when he was brought back to the present when George told him about Tina's death over the phone as if he wanted to drag his ass back over there into town. Which he didn't wanted to.

"Nobody had been around the place, other than the janitor man who had taken a break to piss during the murder and nobody had seen the man or woman.." George had taken a sigh before he followed up back."There was something else that triggered the cops as well."

"Okay.."

"I shouldn't be telling you that, because of the investigation or else it might corrupt things up, when I could lose my job-" George was struggling with his words much as it bothered Tommy.

"Just spill out, George.." He wasn't in the moment to record George's testimony for a work. Even if his friend was a cop, he wouldn't want to bother him but since he did called him, better to spill out his own heart issues either way.

"The locks had been locked. And way too hard that we needed, at least five to six men to unlock the door. And this is where we've seen Tina laying with all her blood, around. Someone wanted to make sure she wouldn't go and run away.." George had admitted back. "But what's weird? It was the locks had been slammed up shut and fast with no help..Like they've locked up on its like that power when that date of yours had made when she screamed out loud, many years ago..It was so scary back at that time, Tommy." George had reminded him of that unforgettable moment. As if it hadn't occured from yesterday, which it had been from Tommy. After all, Sean Morgan's character had been inspired from his date. An proud doctor whom had become a misfit after volunteering himself into a program that had ruined and nearly killed him when he entlisted into war. Carrie had reminded him of that. But Carrie had nobody to love back then. Cause she was all alone with her sufferring as much as it hurted him when he shut down his eyes as he clutched his hold onto the phone. His heart was pouring out for this invisible girl who could have been a woman today, if he had heard about her.

"Carrie. Her name was Carrie.." Tommy had released back when his mind travelled back to this outragious moment where Carrie's scream had wrecked the gym's wide windows into shattered pieces. Everything had broken loose. He could still hear it from that day. How her screams had hauntening him from that night. How she looked so beautiful like any other women, until it had fell apart when she had been humiliated on that stage. Because of a stupid but crual joke. And how he missed her. It was stronger than he expected, after all these years. However, it wasn't Carrie who couldn't have done that, cause she was gone to this world. But not much to his heart. Someone else with the same similiar power was trying to pay off the mean. And if Tina had been the first, than others would surely come up. And there were many of them.

As he often heard from many people with a grudge; Sorry Is Not Enough. And whomever had killed Tina Blake, wouldn't simply stop there.
