Karma's POV:
I paced the floor back and forth. I was worried sick about Amy. I couldn't believe she hasn't returned any of my calls or text messages. What is going on? It wasn't like her to do this sort of thing. Let's be honest, you're worried she figured out you were lying about not feeling anything for her.
I stopped in front of the mirror in my room. I let out a big sigh. Who am I kidding? I do feel something for Amy. I just...don't know exactly what I want at the moment. Yes that's it. I heard my phone go off and immediately grab it.
"Hello?" I tried to sound as calm as possible. I didn't even bother to look when I answer to see who it was.
"Karma?" My face instantly turned into a frown. It was Shane.
"Yes, Shane? What's up?" It was slightly irritating and shocking that Shane would call me of all people. Honestly, he is more of Amy's friend than mine.
"Hey, have you talked to Amy today? I've been trying to call her all day but I haven't been able to reach her." Now I was beginning to worry more than I already was. Thanks a lot Shane!
"Umm...No I haven't. I think I will make a little trip over to her house to see what's wrong with her. She's probably out or sleeping or...something." I honestly didn't know what was going on with her. My mind was thinking of the worst possible things. Shane said a few more words before claiming that he had to go. It was an awkward conversation for us to have considering that we weren't close and the only time he would make an effort to talk to me was when he was trying to make contact with Amy, but couldn't. I quickly left my house and headed straight to Amy's. Something wasn't right and I was going to get to the bottom of it.
Amy's POV:
I groaned as the sunlight shined through my window. I looked at the time on the clock in my room. 5 o'clock in the afternoon. I looked around, trying to let my eyes adjust and fully open from being asleep. I apparently took a long nap. It was much needed after last night/this morning of partying. I reached for my phone. I saw the influx of messages and calls from Shane and Karma. Goddamn, can't a girl get a break around here! Why don't you people call or text me when I am fully awake and perfectly fine? Bitches… I shook my head and laid back down on the bed.
"Weakling…" I immediately shot up. I looked around my room and jumped. Toni was calming sitting in a chair across the room, with her legs crossed, acting like it was normal for her to be here.
"What the…"
"Don't ask blondie. I have my ways of finding out things." She winked and blew me a small kiss in the air. I was frozen in place.
"H-how long have you been here?" I asked. I was actually afraid to know.
"Not long. But long enough. Listen, I came here for a reason. There's a rave tonight. I am sure you don't have any plans, seeing how you live and all."
"I am not going to another party with you. The last time I went, I was super drunk and super high off weed because of you. I've never been so messed up in my life." Toni gave me a small mysterious smile.
"Actually, you weren't high off weed alone. There was a little cocaine in there. I don't really fuck with weed alone as much. The high for me doesn't last long." My eyes widen.
"Cocaine?! As in the drug plenty of people get addicted to and die off of?!" This bitch is truly crazy…
"Don't worry, it was laced with actual weed that time. I was trying to experiment. I heard Frank Ocean's song called Novacane and went to my local dealer and requested for some strong shit or some tips on how to get a high like Frank Ocean had in the song. It got you to snap out of your miserable life and forget your shitty little problems, so I guess you can say it did it's job nicely." I just sat there in silence. I was speechless.
"Are you going to go to this rave with me or not, blondie? Or Amy, I believe is what you told me your name is?" I shook my head.
"I am not going anywhere with you. I could have died."
"Oh shut the fuck up! Drugs are meant to be an outlet, not a killer, if it is put in the right hands. Listen, you told me about the things that are going on in your life, and I must say, it's pretty fucking shitty if you ask me. So you have a choice, you can lay here and sleep your life away/sulk over some girl or you can come with me to wonderland. Let me show you what you've been missing. I'll make you feel alive." I sat there and thought about my options. I did have fun last night...And I definitely need to escape this constant cycle I've been in for months now… I need to move on from Karma… Just as I was about to make my decision, Karma comes bursting through my door with her jolly ass as though this was her house. She froze in place as soon as she saw Toni. Toni was rather attractive and the fact that she was already in party type clothes that showed a little too much of her body didn't make the situation any easier. She looked at me and then looked back at Toni.
"Er..There you are! I've been...um...trying to reach you for the longest and so has Shane...now I see why we haven't gotten a hold of you…" Is that a hint of jealousy I hear in Karma's voice? Shit… Toni looked at me and then looked at Karma. Her signature mischievous smile came onto her face.
"Well, this is her? The girl you sit here and sulk about? She's a little vicious I see. You better keep her down to Earth before she gets knocked the fuck down from off her high horse." Oh. Shit. Karma's nostrils flared up. She was about to speak before I quickly interrupted.
"Toni! I'll call you once I get ready for tonight. I am excited to see what happens." Toni nodded her head, without keeping her eyes off Karma. Karma stared her down too, with her arms crossed.
"Right. I'll be waiting for your call, blondie." She began to walk out of my room, but stopped in front of Karma.
"She kisses the ground you walk on but you won't do the same for her. Funny how love works doesn't it? Let me know when you take that royal stick out your ass and maybe you can hang with me one day, strawberry shortcake." Karma's mouth fell open as Toni calmly walked out the room in a smooth move. I sat there, trying so hard to contain my laughter. Finally, I have found someone who can put Karma in her place.
Karma's POV:
I stood there in shock. What just happened? I turned to face Amy. She sat there like a deer in headlights.
"Amy...Who was that?" I was trying so hard not to get angry, but I felt every ounce of my body want to throw something at the wall.
"A...um...friend? Listen Karma, as you can see, I am perfectly fine. Nothing is wrong with me. So you can leave now. I need to get ready anyway for this rav...I mean party tonight." I can't believe Amy is acting like this, what the hell is going on? The real reason why I am mad is because Toni is attractive and is giving Amy the time of day and god knows what else. What am I thinking? I don't like Amy...well...I am unsure at the moment...I am conflicted… I watched for a few minutes as Amy went in her closet. She was searching through her clothes to find the perfect outfit. I sighed. What am I going to do? As I stood there watching Amy move around the room in a quick motion, an idea popped in my head.
"Hey...can I come with you to this party? I need to get out of the house for awhile and…"
"No!" Amy instantly said. I gasped a little. She put her hand over her mouth for a few moments before speaking again.
"I mean….um…sure? But I...don't know if you'll like it...It may not be your scene…" She nervously balled up the shirt that was in her hand. I turned my head slightly to the side.
"Nonsense! If you are going then I am sure I will fit right in." I gave her a big smile. She nervously chuckled a little.
"Yeah...er...I guess so…Well I guess you better get ready then huh?"
"Luckily I already have some clothes over here that I can wear so I don't have to go all the way home to change." I swiftly moved over to the dresser. I eyed Amy out the corner of my eye. She stood there nervously before turning back around to the closet.
"Yeah Karms...lucky you…" I could heard the concern in her voice. It was as though she was hiding something. There is something going on between her and this Toni. Something inside of me is telling me that Toni is up to no good. Guess I'll find out tonight then won't I.
