Veronica's POV
I went back to watching everyone practice.
I clearly don't know anything about this world.
I saw Lakelyn walking up the bleachers.
"Hey V."
"Hey Lake. How'd it go?"
"As good as it can be I guess. You'll most likely have to talk to him tomorrow."
"I-I have to talk to a guy about what happened?"
"About what happened today. Nothing else."
"But what if he asks about yesterday?"
"You'll figure it out I'm sure. If you need to get me. Hey wanna get your nails done with me? My mom is picking me up soon."
"Huh? What's wrong with my nails?"
I started looking at my hands.
"Nothing. I just was wondering if you wanted to add some color to them."
She held out her hand. Her nails were pink.
"Like this. You can get whatever color you want."
"Really?"
"Yeah. If you want you can get a design on them too."
"You'd let me go with you?"
"Yeah!"
"I should ask my aunt."
"Oh yes right. Go ahead."
I texted my aunt and asked if I could go get my nails done with Lakelyn. She said I could.
"O-okay. I can go."
"Yay!"
Jacob walked up to us.
"Mom's here."
"Ronnie's coming with us!"
"Really?"
"Yeah! We're getting our nails done!"
"I-I don't have money though."
"Oh that's fine. My mom normally pays anyway."
We grabbed our things and walked to their mom's car. We got in and I saw a woman in the driver's seat.
"H-hi ma'am."
"Are you Veronica?"
I gulped.
"Y-yes."
"I'm Brooklyn."
"Kim said she can get her nails done with Lyn."
"Jake what happened to your hand?"
"Nancy happened. She went to cut Ronnie but I put my hand in front of it."
"What's wrong with that girl?"
"I wish I knew."
"Are you getting your nails done too J?"
"Not today. I have to finish an essay for English class."
Brooklyn dropped Jacob off at their house then brought me and Lakelyn to get our nails done.
Jacob's POV
I was in the middle of typing the rest of this essay when Leo called me.
*Video Call with Leo*
"Yo."
"Hey dude what's up?"
"Um we have a problem. By "we" I mean you and Veronica."
"Fuck! What is it?"
"Nancy is live streaming your sister and Ronnie at the nail salon."
"She's stalking her now?!"
"Shit! Dennis just grabbed Ronnie!"
"What?!"
"He put her in the back of a car! Nancy is still streaming!"
"Shit! Shit! Shit! Did you call anyone?!"
"Yeah. You!"
"Who called the cops then?!"
"Lee is now. I hear him on the phone."
"Jesus Christ! I think one of them is calling me! I-I gotta go!"
*End of Video Call*
*Phone Call with Unknown Number*
"Hello?"
"Ah good! You answered!"
"Where is she?!"
"Really? You really think I'll tell you?"
"What do you want?!"
"You."
"Ew gross."
"Did you call the cops?"
"No. Where are you?!"
"You'll never know. Bye!"
"JACOB HELP!"
"Ronnie?!"
*End of Phone Call*
"FUCK! SHIT!"
I ran next door to Kim's house.
