Ravaged

Chapter 8 (Part 1)

A/N: Okay, I lied in the last chapter say shit was about to go down. But these two chapters were just building up to the big moment. So, since a lot of stuff is happening, I've split this chapter into two parts. All the action will be in Part 2 so, be looking for it. This chapter is just for background to be given and what not~

A lot of things will be reviled, questions will be answered and things are probably not going to be the same again for anyone...

ONWARD TO THE CHAPTER \(*O*)/

Chapter 8(Penelope's POV)

"Felix! Where is my mouse?" I yelled through the apartment. Why is it every time I go to use my computer,  my mouse is gone. I mean, dude, go out and buy yourself a mouse. Stop taking mine.

"Sorry, I needed to play my game." He laughed, walking into my room and handing the mouse to me. I glared up at him, snatching the mouse from his hands and plugging it into my computer.

"Hey, uhm..Camden and I are going out in a few." Felix said, rubbing the back of his neck as I turned around to look at him.

"Where to?" I asked, looking back at my computer screen. This was actually a good thing. Now I could edit my pictures and email them to my teacher. Goodbye torturous homework, hello relaxation.

"We're going to see that new zombie movie. You know the one with Brad Pitt." I didn't make a comment and continued messing with different effects on Photoshop, trying to find the right one for the picture I took of Camden leaning against a lamp post.

"Maybe...Do you wanna co-"

"No." I deadpanned, causing Felix to suck in his breath and sigh. 

"Alright, well, I'll call when we're on our way home. Don't wait up, kay?"

"Alright, bye and have fun." I replied, still playing around with Photoshop. I had a total of twenty pictures to edit and this was my second to last one. I wasn't doing much to them anyway. Even though we were supposed to, my Professor just better be happy I turned something in. I heard Felix and Camden's voice murmuring as they prepared to leave. I quickly added one last effect and saved the picture on my flash drive and added it into the files on the email to my professor. I heard them call goodbye and close the door and as soon as I heard the lock click, I bolted out of my chair. 

Grabbing my pea coat and I scarf, I made my way to Felix and Camden's room. As I tied the scarf around my neck, I circled around the room.

"If I was a suspicious note, where would I be?" I whispered. I saw a drawer on the end table by their bed open and quickly rushed over to it, throwing it open. There was a magazine, a notebook and a bottle of lotio-oh wait. That was not lotion. I made a disgusted face as I threw the bottle back in the drawer and closed it. 

So gross. I shivered and looked around the room once more. I needed to get that note so I could go to the apartment. Even though Felix and Camden said not to, I had a gut feeling that if I didn't go, something bad was going to happen. And most of my gut feelings were true. That's why I couldn't let this go. Next place to look was the waste basket, and I swear if I found something I did not want to see, I probably would throw up right here and now.

It was all good though. I found the note too.

Grabbing my bag, slinging across my chest and grabbing the keys, I headed out the door. It was ten at night right now, and judging by the directions Map Quest gave me, I would get to the apartment in twenty minutes which gave me enough time to get home before Camden and Felix.
