Becky was currently sitting in her study hall period, but things were far from normal at the moment. The evil voices that's been stuck in Becky's head had been a problem for her all day. She has tried everything she could possibly think of to drown out the voices, but it was no use. Even now she had her earbuds on full blast, with her hoodie up while covering her ears with her head down.
It did not help as the voice just kept getting louder "HOW PATHETIC, YOU THINK YOU CAN SILENCE ME WITH A LITTLE NOISE".
It was taking every bit of will power that Becky to keep from screaming, so instead it only came out as a small whimper. The voices evil laughter flooded her thoughts, what made things even worse was how similar the voice was to Becky's own.
Even with her music being loud as possible Becky desperately pushed up on the volume button on her phone. It almost seemed like the more she did the louder the laughter got.
"Please, just go away... Somebody help me" Becky cried.
"HAHAHA LOOK, YOU. PLEADING AND CRYING FOR HELP LIKE A CHILD. ADMIT IT, YOU WANT TO KILL, YOU WANT TO SLAUGHTER YOUR CLASSMATES"
With her head still down on the desk Becky frantically shook her head "Please... Please leave me alone. I can't take it anymore".
However, seeing Becky in this vulnerable state only incited the voice more "YES! IT WON'T BE LONG NOW! SOON YOUR SOUL WILL BE MINE AND I'LL CONSUME YOUR ENTIRE BEING AND ILL BE FREE TO SLAUGHTER WHOEVER I PLEASE. PERHAPS I'LL START WITH THAT LIV GIRL YOU CARE SO MUCH FOR".
Becky's eyes widen at the thought "No you won't, I won't let you. I'll never let you get close to Liv".
The deafening laughter continued "HAVEN'T YOU REALIZED ALREADY, HER FATE IS ALREADY SEALED, BECAUSE SOMEONE AS WEAK AS YOU COULD NEVER TAME ME! IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, ALLOW ME TO SHOW YOU!"
Becky gasped "No, please… not again".
The voice ignored Becky as everything went black for a moment, she knew what was happening. Becky kept her eyes closed knowing what awaited her if she opened them. Since that first time it happened back at her apartment with the rest of the girls, Becky has experienced many more of these visions. The visions always included with piles of dead bodies around her and Becky always being the one who slaughtered them. They also always ended the same way, with Liv dying in her arms.
The visions could happen whenever the voice made contact with Becky. However, even worse than these visions were the nightmares Becky had whenever she slept. The difference between the visions and the Nightmares that Becky had was, in the visions Becky only saw the aftermath of her killing spree.
When she had a nightmare it was as if Becky was trapped in her own body and watched herself as she killed everyone in her path. Her classmates, teachers, friends, and of course Liv. She was forced to watch this and was also unable to do anything about it. It was like her body and brain had disconnected and couldn't do anything but witness the monster she had become.
It was because of this Becky had not gotten much sleep lately, she'd rather be tired and filled up with coffee than to have another nightmare. She knew it was inevitable for her to sleep, but the longer she could postpone it the better.
After many different experiences with the visions this voice had put Becky through, she had learned there is only one way to escape it. She had to open her eyes and wait it out, no matter how painful it may be. So taking a deep breath Becky prepared herself to see the lifeless bloodshot eyes of her love. So she lifted her head up and opened her eyes, expecting the worst. But when she opened her eyes what she saw looking back at her wasn't lifeless or dead. No, it was the real Liv. Who's green orbs were looking right into Becky's.
"You know you're going to go deaf listening to your music that high right" Liv said.
The voice in Becky's head groaned as it drifted off "DAMN GIRL!"
The moment Becky saw Liv, she felt as if 100 pounds had been lifted from her chest. For some unknown reason, whenever Liv was around the visions stopped and the voices were silent.
Only when Liv wasn't around, the voices in Becky's head ran wild, even when she was with her other friends, whether it be Sasha, Dean or Bayley. The voice still crept their way into Becky's subconscious, but when she was with Liv, she felt like herself and everything felt right again.
While Becky felt rejuvenated, Liv narrowed her eyes at Becky as she whispered "You've been having those visions again haven't you".
Becky nervously chuckled "No, I'm just tired is all".
What happens next caught Becky by surprise as Liv grabbed Becky's face and pulled it close to her. Liv was looking deep into Becky's eyes as she squinted at her. Becky could feel her face heat up, this was the closest she has ever been to Liv's face, even closer than the time in her room after Becky's first incident with the voices. The longer Liv held Becky's face like this the more her heart raced. For Becky, she couldn't help but wonder why she was being put through this, after having to deal with those voices in her head, she was now forced to be a mere inch away from the kiss she desired most and couldn't do anything about it.
Finally Liv said something "You can't lie to me Becky, it's in your eyes. Your pupils are blood red just like last time".
Becky hadn't realized this, in fact, she was still caught up with being so close to Liv's face "oh…"
Liv let go finally putting some distance between their faces, Becky rubbed her face trying to pull herself together "I'm sorry it's just, I don't want you to worry about me".
"What worries me more is when you don't tell me when you're in pain!" Liv snapped.
"Liv…" Becky said quietly.
Liv sat down at her desk next to Becky and sighed "Look your my friend ok, and your probably the most important person in my life. So if you are suffering so am I and I just want to be able to help you".
A huge smile was plastered on Becky's face, she tried to hide it, but it was no use. To hear the person she cared for the most say that Becky was the most important person in her life, made her forget all about the horrible voices she heard just moments before.
"You're important to me too Liv" Becky said, putting her hand on Liv's knee.
Liv then put her hand on top of Becky's "Well, I better be, I'm the only one who laughs at your pun's".
"That's because the others are too stuck up to laugh and Liv a little" Becky said bopping Liv's nose.
The two laughed at Becky's terrible pun, the angelic laugher from Liv filled Becky with such happiness. The thing that was so funny to Becky was how different she and Liv were. After all Becky grew up without knowing her parents, where Liv actually knew hers for a little while.
However, when Liv lost her parents just like Bayley, Liv had to grow up in the foster care system. Liv never went into great detail about her foster home experience, in fact, she get down right angry if you ask her. As far as people knew Liv still was in the foster care system, after all, teenage orphans aren't exactly the ideal kid adopting parents are looking for. Although which foster home Liv belonged to was a mystery, she told nobody not even Becky that information. In fact, most people didn't even know there was a foster home in whisper windfalls, but there must have been if Liv was still in town.
Then of course there was Becky who was the cousin of the guy who literally owned half the town. Becky was a rich girl, although she prided herself on being independent and using her own money she earns at her job to pay for things. At the end of the day, however, Becky still lived in a penthouse paid for by her cousin. So the feeling of wondering if there would be enough food for everyone to eat, how long you'll stay in this home this time, where your next home will be or if your foster parents are abusive or kind was never some a person like Becky had to even contemplate, but Liv did.
The two were very different people from very different backgrounds. So how did the two become friends? How can a rich girl and the poor foster kid who wore rags for clothes and shoes that had the sole stapled on ever get along? One may say it was because if there was one thing the two understood, it was loneliness. Neither of the girls had someone to go home to. Dean had his family and Sasha lived with her cousins. So through the years, Becky and Liv became the person they could go to. On holidays when Sasha and Dean were with their families, Becky and Liv were with each other. When Sasha and Dean ate with their family, Becky and Liv ate together. When Sasha and Dean went on trips with their family, Becky and Liv spent the day eating pizza and watching movies. The girls built a bond from the loneliness in their hearts, and soon their past didn't matter anymore. Rich and poor were just labels, because when they were together they were just Becky and Liv. Best Friends who have become the family, they didn't have or wasn't around.
But when you rely on one person so heavily for support and happiness. Chances are one of you might get stronger feelings. Unfortunately for Becky, this meant her. She didn't know when it happened, but one day she had realized how much she loved her best friend and when she did it was too late to stop the feeling.
So now all Becky could do was give Liv a cheesy smile, "I'm so fucked".
Short chapter again, I know, I'm sorry. I just really liked how I ended the chapter and I wanted to give more details on Becky and Liv's relationship and explain Liv's past and current life. I'll go into much greater detail about the twos past later. Also, I have had less time to write lately, but that's no excuse. The next chapter will be longer like it usually is. Don't forget to review, till next time.
