"So what are we going to do huh?" Piers ask Chris outside the home of Helena Harper's house.
"Hmm…I was thinking about…" Chris picked up a big rock and threw it at Helena's window. The window broke and the rock was inside of her room. "Hopefully that's her room. Quick! Hide!"
Piers did what he was told and a man came out of the house. "Fucking teenagers! Yeah! You better run! Assholes." Piers and Chris chuckled. They did felt a little bad about breaking the window but then it was pretty funny at the same time.
Chris climb up a tree that was near the broken window and he manage to jump to the window ceil. "Got it." He said to Piers who was looking around to see if the coast was clear. As soon as Chris got inside of the room, he looked around to see if it was Helena room.
He went over to her dresser and sees a photo of Helena and Claire at her sixteen birthday party. Chris smiles and then puts the photo back down onto the dresser. He then heard Piers shouting from outside. "Chris! Chris! Hurry the fuck up!" "Shut up!" Chris shouted back out the window.
He put a rope out of the window and Piers started to climb up to Helena's bedroom. "Thanks man." Piers told Chris handing him the rope.
Helena got out from her bathroom and was singing. "Everybody hurts! Everybody screams!"
Piers and Chris covered their ears from the horrible singing. Helena didn't notice them in her bedroom. "Does she notice us here or?" "I don't think so Piers. She has those damn headphones in her ear."
Helena was about to take her towel off from her body but then Chris and Piers looked at each other and quickly rushes towards her shouting. "Stop! No! Stop!" Helena took her headphones off and started screaming. Piers and Chris was screaming too.
Claire finally has reached home. She opens the front door and was still wiping her tears from her cheeks. Her mother has seen her come inside the house. "Claire! Where have you been?! Is there any chance you know where your brother Chris is? I've tried contacting him for almost an hour now."
Sobbing Claire told her, "No." She went pass her mother crying.
"Claire? Come sit down with me and let's talk."
"No. I'm okay alright!" Claire rushed up to her bedroom and her mother followed.
Realizing that they three were screaming pretty loud, Piers puts his hand over Helena's mouth. "Helena? Is everything okay up there?" Helena took Piers hand off from her mouth and she shouted, "Y-yeah! There was just a bug in here! That's all dad! Quick hide! Oh and don't hide in here!" "What the fuck? Where do you want us to hide in?" Helena sighs and says, "Outside." "Are you telling us to jump out from the window? Helena, we can break a leg. I hope you know that." "No you won't. Trust me on this boys." Helena's father bang on the door, "Helena opens up!" "Go!" She told them once more.
Chris was the first person to jump out of the window. He landed perfectly. "She was right." Piers jumps out of the window and lands on Chris. They both were on the ground. "Piers? Are you alright?"
"Y-yeah Captain." Piers rubs his back and gets up from the ground. He then helps Chris up who was a bit hurt. "Are you alright?" "No. I'm perfectly fine." Chris said sarcastically.
Helena looks out of her window and fixes up her towel before opening her room door. She opens it but cracks it a little showing only her face. "Oh hey dad. Everything is fine up here. It's just that you see what happen was-" Her father bust the door open and Helena's eyes widens. "Are you insane or?"
"No. I could have sworn I heard a male's voice up here! Where is he huh?" Her father checks under her bed, her closets, and then her bathroom. "Feeling dumb now?" "No but I will be back here. So you better tell that boyfriend of yours that he's lucky I haven't found him yet."
"Whatever dad." Helena said closing back her room door. She rushes towards her window and gives Piers and Chris thumbs up.
After five minutes has past. Helena has gotten out of her bathroom once again but this time with clothes now. "Why didn't you guys call or text me?" "Like we didn't try doing that?!" Piers shouted. "Shh! Shut the hell up Piers before my dad comes up here again. Plus, he will defiantly catch you two this time because he has a key to my bedroom!"
Piers chuckles. "Now I see why you don't have a boyfriend."
"Guys! Enough. Look, we came here about Claire."
"What about her?" Helena said rolling her eyes pacing back and forth in her bedroom. Chris explains everything to Helena and Helena gasps. "Oh shit! It's too late now! She's probably at his house right now! Oh god this is bad!" Helena paces back and forth fast and even started biting her nails.
Piers got up from the edge of her bed and went up to her wrapping his arms around her calming her down. "It's okay Helena. We all can help Claire." She turns around to face Piers and their eyes both met. She looks away quickly at Chris who looked at both of them. Piers took his hands off of her and back away slowly. "So uh like I was saying. Do you know where Steve lives at?"
"Are you stupid Piers? You and Chris can't go to Steve's house! Especially at night time! The boy is dangerous. God knows that he and Claire can be doing right now. "Helena sat between the boys and glances at her room floor. "They both probably can be getting it in right now." Piers joked and then started bursting into laughter.
Helena and Chris didn't found it funny. They both looked over at Piers clueless and Piers stops laughing. "Sorry?" "Look, just give us Steve's address and we will both be on our way over there."
"No. I'm going with you two."
"Helena. This is a man's job." Chris told her heading towards her window.
"No. Please. Claire is like my best friend and I'm the one who put her in this mess. I should've just let her been heart-broken. Maybe right now she would have been happy?"
"Don't beat yourself up Helena. We've all tried warning Claire about Steve. She just wouldn't listen."
Someone knocks on Helena's room door again. "Shit. That must be my father." Helena said.
"No. This is Sherry."
"Oh right." Helena went over to her door and opened it.
"Hey, why is Piers and Chris here?" Sherry asks putting the snacks she's bought from the store on Helena's bed. "Oh because guess what they've both told me just now?" "What?" Helena told Sherry everything including the part where Piers and Chris almost seen her naked.
"Dude, you didn't have to tell her that part." Piers told her checking his text messages on his phone. It's been ten minutes that Claire hasn't replied to his text message. She might be sleeping? He thought to himself.
Claire was lying down on her bed thinking about what happen between her and Steve. "Claire. Open this door this instant!" It's been almost an hour now that her mother has banged on her door telling her to tell her what happen. "Mom! Leave me the fuck alone!" She yelled putting her pillow on her face. "Don't you dare use profanity in this house young lady! If you don't open this door in ten seconds then you are grounded till you graduate from high school!"
She takes the pillow off of her face and sits up straight in her bed. "Ten." Her mother has started counting and Claire heard her phone buzz. She checked her phone messages and sees a text from Piers. Her heart drops. "Nine." Claire reads the text message:
Piers: Claire? Are u alright?
"Eight" She texted him back replying,
Claire: Yes. I'm fine. Why are you asking me that?"
"Seven." Claire waited for his response.
Piers: Because I'm worried about you…is that a problem?
Claire: No. It's not a problem at all.
She shooted back at him. "Six"
Piers: Where are you?
Claire: Why do you care?"
Piers: Dammit Claire! Just tell me where you are at!
"Five" She thought for a minute and began to put her shoes back on.
Claire: …
Piers: Don't text me that!"
"Four"
Claire: Look Piers. I'm sorry. I have to go now. I just made the biggest mistake of my life. I have to go and make things right. I'd text you later k?
"Three"
Piers: Why do you do this all the time to me? What? You like playing with my heart or something? Because I find that pretty mess up.
Claire: No. I am sorry okay? : ( I'm sorry for everything Piers. Just please don't get mad at me. Look, I have to go bye.
"Two!"
Claire put on her brown sweater while looking at herself at her mirror that was handing behind her room door.
"One! That's it Claire! You're punished until you graduate." Claire opens her room door and passes by her mother.
"Where do you think you're going young lady?" She ignores her mother and opens the front door. "Hey! Claire! It is a school night! Get back in this house this instant!"
"Did she text you back?" Chris asks looking over at Piers.
"No. She didn't tell me where she's at." Piers put his phone down on his lap and everyone sighs.
"That's it." Helena said pulling her phone out from her pocket. "I'm calling the cops." She dialed nine-one-one. "Hello. Nine-one-one speaking. What is your emergency?" Chris eyes widen and he takes the phone out of Helena's hand. "Nothing. Sorry." He said into the phone. "We can't have the cops involve in this! What? We're going to tell them that Piers and Claire faked a relationship in order to make her ex jealous and now she has her ex back and now she's missing? They would think that we're pulling a prank!"
"Yeah. Chris is right. Getting the cops involve will be pretty dangerous and too risky. Besides, Claire's life is on the line."
Sherry lay down on Helena's bed looking up at the ceiling. "Then what the hell are we all supposed to do?!"
"How about we all pay that bastard a visit? You know, give him an ass whipping." Piers took his belt off and everyone laughed. Jill knocks on Helena's room door. She opens the door and says, "Hey. It's twelve p.m. How did you?" "Your father was kind enough to open the front door for me. Besides, what? You thought I was going to throw a rock at your window and use a rope to enter inside of your bedroom right? That'd be too much work."
Piers and Chris looks at each other and back at Jill. "No comment." They both say.
Claire walks up the front steps of Steve's front porch. She knocks on the door and waited for someone to open the door but no one did. She opens the door and she was inside of his house. "Wow. He leaves his house door opens? Yeah…he's totally drunk." She said closing and then locking the door behind her. "Steve?" she said aloud. The house was pretty dark inside. There were no lights on. "Steve?" she said once more.
Before she turns around, she felt someone covers her mouth. Claire screams into the person's hands and the person whispers in her ear, "You've just made the biggest mistake of your whole entire life."
