B*tches with Stiches: Book One

23 Grand Theft Auto

Decided it would be a fun try to give Stanley's POV just for this  chapter. But don't worry his friend will be coming back in the next book (wink, wink). Enjoy!

I was driving down the road though it was a little slick from the ice earlier and considering it was a motorcycle it was risky. As I stopped at a stoplight on my way to Cassius's house which was a mile away I noticed how empty the street was unlike usual. It was so quiet all I could hear was the tick of the street light changing as I drove a bit more down the road I suddenly had this feeling I wasn't alone. As if I could make out shapes and no color around me, it wasn't scary but it seemed lonely. That's when I hear what sounds like Molly talking in my head? Stanley, it's me. I wasn't sure what that was about but it was a strange feeling as if I was being watched Stanley pay attention pay close attention. I'm being bound in a place by some spell... I'm not sure where I am or what's going to happen. But I think I could show you where I am. I had no choice but to come to a stop a block away from Cas's house as I kept receiving bits and pieces of a place I didn't recognize but I knew it was Molly in there or somewhere. I could see a warehouse, I could feel the binds that held her around her body; strong and skilled. I could see the guy she called Matt and how he smelt of nightshade. Molly, I think I know where you are... Meadow street and 25th. I know I've never tried this before this is strange but I mean hey it's better than a cell. I'm headed to Cas right now... Sure is pretty dead out here. I answer. That's when it dawned on me it isn't the apocalypse, stupid. It is possible that everyone is already changed and they're waiting for the right moment to pounce... Your best bet is to get to your stoner bff and get the hell out of Dodge until I can finish them off. I shrug unsure what to think of next What do you mean finish them off? What the hell is Matt doing to you? Don't tell me he's a rapist. Cause if he is... Molly sighs I can tell she's impatient he's not a rapist it's much worse. We have to kill him before he kills me. We have to find Kari and Esme before the whole state pretty soon the world is taken over by the undead.

I make it to Cassius house and park on the side of the house cause I didn't want a supposed zombie to see there was at least another living person. Then again what about Cassius? Was he still alive or infected? I decide instead of knocking that I was gonna throw rocks at his window till he answered the door that's when I saw them; at first it started with one shadow of a person I couldn't tell was a teen or adult all I know was they stood there on the lawn staring straight at the house almost in a hypnotic trance. "Come on damn it, Cas answer the fucking window." I whisper so I text him.

Stan: Let me in I'm outside your window.

...

SassyCas: Wait what why? You no door is unlocked come in.

...

Stan: Can't its important people are watching your place. I'll explain inside. Now open up.

....

SassyCas: Not sure what this is about but how much LSD did you take?

...

Stan: Listen smartass, this isn't a joke. Focus. I need you to open window and let me in... Your house is being watched.

Cas doesn't answer for a few seconds and I hear the window open first thing he does is ask the dumbest question, "What the hell are you doing down there? What do you mean people are watching?" I slap a hand to my forehead, "I'll explain in a minute send down a rope." I mumble taking a glance around to the front porch where there are several more outlines of people; unmoving and emotionless but staring straight at the house.

Cas finally tosses down a rope and I climb it in a hurry to escape that creepy shit below. "Long time no text. What's happening out there, you're acting like a fucking drug dealer. Are you a dealer?" Cas asks as we run downstairs him following after me in a rush. I turn on the TV and what I find next I can't believe. Not only is the TV stations saying standby and emergency this is not a drill but nothing is showing period, "Ok... That's weird it was working fine earlier. God I fucking hate Minnesota." Cas says pulling out a cigarette from his pack offering me one I take it out of impulse and fear. "No Cas, this isn't bad reception. This is fucking bad real bad. It means whatever we brought back has become airborne not just people missing." Cas takes a puff and seems confused he tilts his head, "Alright what the hell is going on? Please dumb it down for your very high friend." That's when it all unravels.
