Marissa, the school's ice queen lived with her father and stepmother all these years. Her stepmother only wanted her father's wealth and kept Marissa isolated all these years. Years later, the school's head cheerleader befriended the lonesome Mariss...
I could still hear them outside the door. Their voices disappearing in a distance. All I could do was groan in pain.
I sighed heavily panting for a while trying to get rid of the pain.
"Life sucks."
No electricity, it's been more than 24 hours now so I guess tomorrow I'll still have the remaining food. It's just after that, I'm worried about. But now added to that I got punched in the stomach.
I hate to say it but I miss Ashley. I miss the way she annoyed me. I miss the way she bugged me all the time. I miss how I had trouble pushing her out the door every time she came over. I miss not being alone.
Everything Ashley's done actually made me happy even if I didn't admit it. The girl had her ways and to be honest I liked that she went after me when no one else did. I didn't really know what a real friend was before her and now I don't even have her. I guess I never had her.
"Ugh, I can't believe I miss Ashley." I groaned.
"Awe you missed me. I knew it!" Ashley half yelled half-whispered.
I stumbled up completely shocked by her presence. Well okay, I was more shocked by her voice. Where on earth was she? I could hear her but I couldn't see her. That's kind of freaky, but I'm not going to say I hate it. It's better than knowing I'm trapped and I have no way out.
"Window." I heard her whisper again.
I looked to the window by the bed but nothing. I then rushed over to the other window and looked out to find Ashley barely hanging on from what I can see. She really climbed up here?
Looking closer I noticed she actually had ropes with metal things on them or something like that. I'm not much into ropes or the how-to, on climbing anything. Remember I only learnt the useless things like ballet class, art, you know the useless things that won't help me in situations like this.
I smiled at her and she had a bright smile on her face too. I tried wedging the window open but it was no use.
I tried to find a way to open the damn thing then noticing the little metal area that looked like a padlock or something of that kind. Turning it I heard a little click and I ever so slowly opened the window not wanting to cause much noise.
I finally got to breathe the fresh air from outside and see Ashley was actually safely hanging onto the roof also by the help of the ropes. I even noticed the girls on the ground waving at me with smiles on their faces.
I knew I must have had a huge smile because I could feel it on my face from where it was hurting.
Ashley's smile faltered when she had a good look at me.
"Your face... did that bitch hit you?!" Ashley half yelled again with anger clearly on her face.
I shook my head quickly.
"Ashley we don't have time for this. Is there a way for me to get out? She's locked me up and she has guards. They don't work for Dad. I need to get out of here." I rushed out all the words having to quickly catch my breath after.
She nodded still looking upset but out her hand to me. I gratefully took it minding my step as I lifted myself onto the window ledge ignoring my fear of falling from this height.
Ashley held me tight and I tried my best to hold onto her as best as I could.
"Thanks for coming, Ashley. You don't know how much this really means to me."
She looked at me with a soft expression sighing lightly.
"I told you, you're my number one girl. No getting rid of me now so you're stuck with me for good."
The only thing I could do smile as I ignored the pain from my coming back making me light-headed. I rested my head on Ashley's shoulder before slowly darkness overtook me.
