The Kids Aren't Alright

✰ Chapter Twenty-Eight ✰

"Excuse me, Rarity?" Octavia asked in disbelief. "I know that the whole murder case is getting to you and it can be very stressful but you should really be careful who you point your finger at."

"Just let me question her. I'm coming over right now."

"But I never said-" Octavia was interrupted by the phone hanging up. She deeply sighed and took a big breath.

She didn't know if she believed what Rarity said or not. It just didn't make sense but who knows. The idea of Rarity being apart of a group that killed a snobby rich girl is incredibly shocking yet she was still found at the murder scene.

Rarity isn't known for getting her hands dirty, and even if she did do all of that. She's rich. She has connections with people that could probably save her ass just to save her social status.

Octavia went upstairs to notify Vinyl and Wallflower about what's going to happen. She opened the door to find it being silent, the two just making posters and such for advertisements.

"Knock Knock" She said, as she knocked on the door even though it was already opened.

"You good? Was it your parents?"

"Uhm, no actually it was. ." Octavia paused for a moment, contemplating whether she wanted to tell only Vinyl or both of them. Within a few seconds, she made a decision. "Rarity."

"Huh?" Vinyl questioned.

"What did she want?" Wallflower asked in a worried tone.

The way Wallflower asked that question, made Octavia even more nervous than she already was. It was as if Wallflower did something that would've gotten her in trouble.

Octavia ignored Wallflower's question, staying completely silence. The silence made her hesitant, Wallflower felt forced to explain and cleared her throat before speaking.

"I feel like Rarity is calling because of what happened last time." She took a deep breath and let it all out. "There was a time where I tricked Rarity and her friend group. I was trying to turn them in to the police because it's what everyone was talking about. And I always had a strong want of fitting in. Not really fitting in per say, but at least having something to my name." She paused, waiting for a reaction from them.

The other girls starred at Wallflower like she was crazy. Vinyl's facial expressions weren't as strong as Octavia's, but they were both thinking Wallflower was pathetic for doing that.

"I felt if I turned them in then people would start paying attention to me and not forgetting my existence. I know I'm not a very socially approachable person, but why do I have to be the first to take all the steps? I hate doing things by myself." She finally stopped talking. She could feel tears ready to rush down her face but she continued to hold them in.

"Actually you didn't need to tell us all of that. ." Octavia said awkwardly.

"Yeah it would have been better if we didn't know lol." Vinyl added on.

"Rarity actually called because she feels that you're involved in the murder case. Which doesn't make much sense, but it's probably nothing so don't worry."

Ring Ring!
The sound of the doorbell rang and there was a knock at the door as well.

"That must be Rarity." She said, starting to get up. She held the door. "Are you coming?" She asked, quickly walking away and rushing downstairs.

Wallflower had no other choice but to get up and follow her friend or 'friend'. The two weren't exactly friends, wallflower would like to think so but Octavia didn't feel the same.
