Hey I noticed there was an issue with the edit on this chapter if you was on mobile it wasn't showing correctly so I hope that it's fixed now.
Chapter four
We had stayed out late last night so it was no surprise when all of us had woken up late afternoon. Kat had fallen asleep with me downstairs on the sofa, we did this quite often. Most the time we'd stay up talking about random stuff, watching horrors or watching murder documentaries, many times you'd hear us arguing about who the killer was and who would be a better murderer. Grace had fallen asleep next to Amy in bed as soon as they had got in.
We all woke up around the same time in the evening, the sun was still out but only just. We had all decided to go to the boardwalk again, mostly because Grace wanted another chance at winning the prize she missed out on thanks to the altercation they had with the bikers, later that night we were going to see some band and have some well needed girls time out the house.
That night Amy wore black jeans with army boots and a white off the shoulder top with her leather jacket and her hair up in a ponytail. Kat wore a black mini leather skirt, with a long sleeved fishnet top and fishnet tights and a similar pair of army boots, leaving her hair to do it's own thing. Grace wore black skinny jeans with black ballet pumps and a baby pink crop top. I had decided to wear a black skirt that came just above my knees, with a black crop top to match, my black doc martens and camo jacket, I left my hair not really wanting to fight with my curls.
By the time we got to the boardwalk the sun had set and the night life was buzzing with life like little bugs. Scanning the crowd we saw Laddie standing against a railing with the other boys and another female who I presumed was Star. Grace saw Laddie and smiled at the little boy, who came running over to us.
"Laddie", she beamed and hugged him back as he embraced her.
"Grace can we go on some games" he looked up at her giving her puppy dog eyes, before Grace could answer the rest of the little boys group made their way over to us.
"Hello again laddies" David greeted us with a small wave and a sinister smile on his face.
"Hey" Kat said smugly, I just waved and Amy nodded.
"What brings you girls here", said David.
"Grace wanted to come back again seeing as someone ruined her night, plus we heard theirs meant to be a cool band playing tonight,''Amy said making sure to add the dig at the guys for not looking after their brother better.
"Can Laddie join us tonight again," Grace asked Amy.
"I don't know about that…" David spoke before Amy could answer but then Laddie interrupted him begging if he could.
David smiled and continued…. "Well maybe if we knew your names we'd be more comfortable with Laddie hanging with you"
Rolling her eyes Amy introduced us, "I'm Amy, Kat and on the end is Kita, you already know Grace I assume? And what are your names?"
"Nice to meet you girls, David, Dwayne, Paul and Marko" he said motioning to each of them.
"Now we all know each other how about we go and have some fun" David suggested.
Before we could say anything else Laddie and Grace let out cheers as they grabbed each others hand and started racing off into the crowd. Amy walked off after the pair followed by Dwayne, David and Star; me and Kat took to the back with Marko and Paul on either side of us.
"So laddies what do you want to go on first", Paul asked wiggling his eyebrows at us trying to be flirty.
"Well I know Kitra loves the rollercoaster, isn't that right," she said with a smirk on her face.
"Bitch" I shot back.
"Awh don't worry babe, i'm sure Marko will hold your hand if you get scared", Paul teased
"Of course I will cutie, I'll keep you safe,'' Marko said, wrapping his arms around my shoulders
"Oh I feel so much safer now" I said sarcastically
Strolling over to the rollercoaster I noticed a lot of girls giving me and Kat evils, whilst whispering amongst themselves. It was clear the boys were well known in Santa Carla, guessing by the looks they were the heartthrobs of the beach, I couldn't blame these girls for being jealous they were good looking. Before I knew it, we were at the rollercoaster, Kat and Paul were getting in the first cart, me and Marko got in after them.
"Want to hold me hand", Marko joked holding his hand out
"I think you just want to hold my hand Marko", turning to him I smirked
"Maybe I do, so…" grabbing hold of my hand he sat back with a triumphant smirk plastered across his face.
The rest of the night was flying by we met up with Amy and the others after a few more rides before deciding to grab food before the concert started. Walking into the diner we sat at the table that was just large enough for our group. On one side sat Amy, Grace, Laddie, Dwayne and Star, at the top of the table was David followed by Paul, Kat, Marko then me. As we waited for our food to come the table fell into small talk.
"So how long have you girls been here" David now said pulling us from our conversations.
"About a month now" Grace answered.
"What made you want to come here of all places, it's not exactly the best" this time Dwayne asked us.
"Fresh start where no one knows us" Amy answered not giving any emotions away.
"But the murder capital of the world, not the best place to move" Paul laughed.
"I'm sure it's not as bad as you're making it out to sound" I answered this caused the boys to smile like they knew something we didn't but they were wrong we knew their little secret.
"If it's so bad why are you guys still here?" I asked.
"Worried something's going to happen to us cutie?" Marko asked.
"Not at all I'm sure you guys can take care of yourselves, in fact I bet you boys are the reason everybody keeps going missing" I said jokingly to Marko, at that moment the smile left his face. I had got him, you could see the wheels turning in his head but not for long the smile soon returned to his face.
"And what would make you think that?"
"Well nobody would expect you especially because you look too cute and innocent to do anything wrong and that's their first mistake." As I spoke I could see his smile getting bigger and bigger, he was a cold blooded killer and what I said hit the nail on the head and he loved it.
"And what's to say if I was you wouldn't be my next victim for finding out my secret?" Nice he was trying to put me off, this boy was good.
"Who's to say I'm not as deadly as you?" I raised my brow at him, he had no idea what I was and that gave me the upperhand.
"Oh yeah does that mean I'm going to be your victim?" he asked, still smirking.
"Maybe you are, you'll just have to wait and find out" I smirked and went to our food that had just come. After we'd eaten we headed to the beach and listened to the band that played.
We spent the rest of the night talking on the beach as the crowds died down after the band had stopped. Paul and Kat were basically the same person even down to the kind of food they ate but then again they're are pigs. The pair shared a love for music and all things rock and roll. Kat had shared with Paul that she could play guitar and at that moment I think she won his undead heart.
Grace and Dwayne seemed to get along really well, apparently they both enjoyed books and shared a few told Dwayne about the time she dragged us all to a book signing and met her idol, she offered to lend him the book sometime which he seemed to appreciate.
David didn't speak much, he just listened to what we were saying. Star seemed very comfortable with us, she joked a lot with me and Kat and even with the other boys which you could see was an unusual thing for her.
Laddie and Grace had become best friends, as for me I definitely liked talking to Marko. Turns out we're both from Italy, which was a bit of a surprise, it's very rare you find another Italian in such a big place. We both spoke about art and how we'd both wanted to be an artist but it seemed like an impossible dream now, as well as argued over who was the best Italian cook (I am he needs to accept it).
Time had flown by with the boys, the sun would be coming up soon and I certainly was starting to feel sleepy, we bid them goodnight and headed off home.
