Chapter 12
Previously: I pushed the next door open wide and stopped at the shock I was seeing. Josh and Ivy having sex in the middle of the art cemetery.
Noelle POV
I looked towards the pair in disgust and slammed the door. They both gasped and pulled apart. They tried to cover themselves, but I laughed bitterly and told them not to bother. Josh looked up at me, his eyes filled with tears.
"Please Noelle, don't tell Reed about this. It was a one-time thing. No-one was ever supposed to find out about it."
All I could do was look at him with hatred. He had hurt my best friend; I was not going to let him get away with it that easily.
"What the hell Josh! So you were going to cover your tracks after this, so that no-one ever found out about it?"
Ivy glared at me; I glared right back at her. She opened her mouth to talk but I looked back to Josh. "So Josh, when are you telling Reed about this? You going to visit her in hospital?"
He just stared at me. "Oh yeh, you didn't know she was in hospital. If you had answered any of my calls then you would know that she didn't do anything for three days. That I got so scared for her health that I had to have her admitted."
The tears ran down his face even faster now. I turned to Ivy.
"And you, you little bitch. I thought you were fine with Josh loving Reed. Obviously not, you must feel so unloved that you have to force people to have sex with you."
She jumped towards me, knocking me on the floor. She was on top of me, right in my face.
"Right, you have no idea why me and Josh were here, doing what we were. You might want to listen to the whole story before you jump to conclusions."
I shoved her off of me and stood up. I brushed off my clothes and looked at the two of them, barely clothed. "Ok then, tell me the whole story. I'm listening…"
Josh POV
"It was a few days ago, I got an email. It was from an unknown address, I was curious so I opened it. It said that I had to hurt Reed. I sent back an email refusing to do anything. A minute after I sent it I got one back, it was as if they were waiting for me to reply. It said that if I didn't hurt her then they would hurt my family."
I was crying, all this was wrong. "I couldn't let them hurt my family so I replied asking what the person wanted me to do."
Noelle was looking at me in repulsion. "That's no excuse Josh, you should have told the police."
I saw red. "I was not going to let my family get hurt because of me." I took a deep breath and continued, " The person replied, telling me that they didn't want Reed to be hurt physically, but they wanted to take everything away from her that she loved. I felt sick when I read it. The person must detest Reed, they hate her that much that they wouldn't hesitate to ruin her life."
l shuddered thinking of how I would have to explain the next bit. "The email said that I had to meet with Ivy and we had to have sex. It had to be filmed and had to look believable. If the job wasn't done properly then someone in my family would die. I couldn't risk that, I didn't think of Reed in that moment, all I could think of was protecting my family." I broke down crying and Ivy came and sat down next to me.
"Its alright Josh, its done now, you're safe and so are you're family."
Noelle huffed and said, "Josh, I understand you need to protect your family, but you didn't think of Reed at all. Her parents were killed by that person."
My head shot up, "WHAT!"
"Did no-one tell you? The person set off an explosive in the house. The entire top floor of the house was wiped out, her parents were killed instantly. That's what got her depressed, that's why she is in the hospital."
I looked her in the eye, "Is she alright?"
"I'm not sure, I was coming to get you when I walked in on this."
"Noelle, you can't tell Reed, this will ruin our relationship forever. I love her with all my heart."
She stared at me and nodded. "I won't tell your secret… If you do"
