A Girl’s Diary

Chapter 25 - When Nightmares Come True!

"Nooo, no, please, leave me alone..." I pleaded but he didn't budge he kept dragging me. Away from

everyone inflicting pain in my already throbbing scalp.

Dried blood was everywhere. Please, anyone, save us!

He was coming again slowly advancing towards me...

"Noooo!" I screamed sitting up. It was only a dream no, a nightmare, a memory too vivid I felt

something salty on my lips. Tears! I sniffed hugging my knees to my chest.

"Eli, you okay?" I heard Ian say but I didn't look up. "Nightmares?" He asked knowing very well the

answer. He silently engulfed me into a warm hug that was really needed. After a few minutes or a lot. I

didn't really know, his shirt was soaked with tears.

"You smell bad!" I pushed him lightly and wrinkled my nose.

"Do I now?" He smirked. No, Ian! Don't you dare! But he did it anyway. Tickling me till I was out of

breath. I tried squirming away but then Loca was cheering him on!

"Truce! Stop!" Luckily, he did.

"Loca, I need your help!" She nodded and plopped down on the bed with Ian sitting on the other side. I

showed her the picture on my phone. The video I got with Tommy showed a girl putting the note in my

locker. She was wearing the cheering outfit. But she hid her face was hidden. I had my doubts but I

needed Loca to confirm them. The girl knew every single cheerleader! "Any idea who's this?" I gave

her the phone. She looked closer then nodded.

"That's Alice." I knew it! "But what exactly is this about?"

"Don't you worry, sister! I'll handle this." More like my punch would handle it. But only after I figured out

why the heck she did that!

She thought I was a weak prey! She got another thing coming!

I wasn't going to do anything. Well, until the end of the week. There was a school trip, I wasn't going

but now, I was going. And I had the perfect plan.

But first, there was a bitch that needed to be dealt with. No one could mess with me and get away with

it. Neither Elena nor Cinnamon.

I was walking to Tommy's car with Louis carrying too many books I didn't even need. He was looking so

hella tired. But who cared? After what he did in my chemistry class, which Tommy wasn't allowed in

anymore, he deserved it.

"So, dear Louis, how does it feel to be my servant?" I chirped.

"Awful! I can't even imagine I tried to be nice to you." Jerk!

"Oh, really?" No one could say that and get away with it. "You know what? I don't really need these

books." Louis's jaw dropped. "Can you take them back to my locker?" I patted my lashes at his

frustration. Damn, I was enjoying this too much. He cursed under his breath but then went on his way

back. I was doing him a favour. He needed to work out more if he was going to play football!

I jogged happily towards the parking lot but then I spotted the bitches trio. They advanced towards me

dramatically. Throwing their hair and trying to look intimidating. But in reality, they looked like a bunch

of idiots. I rolled my eyes at them. And stopped right in front of them. There was no way in hell I was

going to look scared in front of them.

I kept my glare levelled with them.

"I warned you before to stay away from my boyfriend." Alice hissed. Not that again! Ugh! I scoffed at

her.

"Do you know what I can do, little Elena?" Fabia warned. Did she think I believed her little lie?

"Ooh, I'm so afraid. The all-mighty Cinnamon was going to hurt me." I chuckled.

"Oh, believe me, she will." I rolled my eyes.

"Stay away from Louis," Jennie said. Since when did that girl start saying anything beside 'yeah'?

"Whatever, now, if you'll excuse me, I have a real-life which I'm not willing to waste by talking to you.

Bye." I went to Tommy who was waiting in the car for me, leaving behind the three speechless idiots.

He looked at me, opened his mouth to say something but I stopped him. "It was Alice." He looked at

me, confused. "The girl in the video." His mouth formed an o. I was so tempted to laugh at his face.

"So, now, not only Fabia is annoying me. Alice is practically harassing me."

"Then we'll take care of both. Anything in mind?" I shook my head. "Then that's when my genius mind

comes in handy." He grinned looking as crazy as ever. My favourite version of Tommy! "Okay, first we

need to handle Fabia. I mean it's been three days or more, right!"

"Yup." Wait, I got an idea!

"I know that look! Tell me."

"Why don't we make Cinnamon appear in front of Fabia? In a public place." I began. "Like a special

surprise event."

"Brilliant! Should we heed to the agency and discuss this with your manager?" I nodded and he drove

fast. I couldn't really do anything without Aurora knowing. When we reached the agency, we headed

straight to the CEO's office. That was where Aurora mostly was when she wasn't handling my shit! I

didn't bother to knock this time. The secretary rolled her eyes at me, I knew she was getting annoyed

but who cared now?

"How did I know it was you?" Olli said sarcastically the moment I was in. "Oh, you brought a friend too."

He smiled. "If it isn't Thomas Baker. Ever thought of becoming an idol?" He asked him. I nearly

snorted.

"Let me think. My voice is glass-shattering. Literally! And my dance moves, I'll let miss Twinkle here tell

you about how awesome they are."

"Terrible!" I giggled. "But that's not why we're here," I said in a calmer voice.

"We are taking down Fabia. Quite frankly because she's a bitch." Tommy said.

"And I assume you have a plan?" Aurora asked. We nodded with stupid grins. The four of us sat

around the small table in the office. We told them about the plan and surprisingly, Aurora was okay with

it while Olli was calling us crazy. Well, he wasn't wrong though. It was all set for tomorrow. I needed it to

be as fast as possible. We called that mall that was opening and told them I could perform at the

opening! Needless to say, it was going to be epic!

But, for now, I had training with Ron in a few minutes. I needed to get to my studio because quite

frankly, training in the company with you being mysterious was a bad idea. Especially if everyone

noticed that suddenly Cinnamon was in the building. As I was saying, bad idea! The fewer people there

were, the safer. Also, paps wouldn't know where to find me!

I arrived surprisingly on time. Wow! I internally praised myself.

"Wait, am I dreaming?" Ron said the moment he got in. I rolled my eyes. "You're actually here before

me? Wow! Maybe I should take more breaks then." He got his guitar out of its case. The guitar I got

him. I smiled. We kept working on new techniques and it was damn hard. I would have to train on them

to perfection.

After two hours of trying to get the same piece right, I gave up. I couldn't even focus and my fingers

hurt.

"We can try them later. It's okay if you don't get them from the first try, you know?" He encouraged but I

noticed something. His tone, it was weird. Something was wrong. Or maybe it was me being a weirdo. I

didn't know.

"What's up, Ron?" I asked. Better safe than sorry.

"Huh?" He trailed. Okay, now I was sure.

"Something is wrong, I just know it, so tell me, what is it?" I asked but he didn't try to even open his

mouth. "I mean, maybe I can help. But it's okay if you don't want to tell me." Even though I wanted to

know. But maybe it was something personal.

"I wanted to ask you for a favour..." He trailed. What? What? Just say it. C'mon! "I don't know if it's a

good idea but..." Ugh! Don't keep me in suspense, dude. I nodded and gave him an encouraging smile.

"Can I maybe umm..."

"Ron, whatever it is. Don't worry, okay?" Please tell me. Curiosity was bad for my health. It was killing

me.

"So, there's this girl I like." He liked a girl!! Wait, why did I even care? "And you know how literally every

teenager is in love with you. So I was thinking if maybe, could I bring her and her friend to training?"

What? "They can watch from behind the glass." He hurried to say. "It's okay if you don't feel

comfortable with it..." He trailed again. You know what?

"Okay!" I said. I was curious about the girl. Who was she? Someone from college? His girlfriend? "But

no more trying pranks on me with Ross again," I said firmly despite the smile on my face.

"Yeah! Sorry about that." He said sheepishly. "But you have to admit it was funny!" He chuckled a bit.

"Anyways... thank you, thank you, thank you!" Ron said cheerily. "Just out of curiosity..." He began. Oh,

believe me, I knew about curiosity! "Why aren't you denying all the news about you being Fabia?" He

asked. Oh, I would!

"How did you even know I'm not her?" I raised a brow at him. Really, how did he? I mean, it was on the

news!

"That's not how you are." He said. I looked at him in confusion. What did he mean by that? As if

sensing my confusion, he elaborated. "She's the kind of girl that thinks she's the best while she's

umm... how do I put it? A bitch searching for her three seconds of fame?" That was exactly what I said. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

I chuckled at him. "I wouldn't be surprised if it was a cute shy girl with an amazing personality. But that

girl, just no." Ron said before he left.

Even though he just left, Elena needed her time with his annoying ass. Spending time with him was

beginning to be my stress mechanism. So I decided to text him.

Me: Ron. Pizza. Now.

Ron: On it ma'am!
