What the-?" Sacha said glaring at her
Alfred thought twice, not wanting to ruin his well planned birthday day he closed the door but arlene blocked it with her foot
"Wait alfred happy birthday and also sacha i'm sorry about our fight i was jealous of how thomas took your time more than me sorry... i just felt left apart... you are my bestfriend"
Sacha eyes softened at arlene's words, alfred took a look at sacha's face before letting arlene in. Everyone's attention was drawn to her.
"Arlene?" Charlie said raising an eyebrow
"Arlene apologised for her behaviour she just felt left apart" afred said looking at charlie with his steely grey eyes, charlie looked back at him then shifted her gaze to Arlene who was standing in the conner next to alfred
"I'm really sorry charlie" alene said
Charlie sighed "for the sake of alfred's birthday i forgive you"
"Me too" Sacha said
Peter looked at her a serious look on his face for a moment then gave her a bottle of beer
"Add yours in the prince's friendship beer"
She smiled and emptied the bottle in the big cup then peter pressed 2 lemons in it and arlene took a cup and poured it in too
"What's that?" Charlie asked arlene raising an eyebrow
..."liquor" arlene smiled
Alfred smiled and they all starting chantìng to Gabriel "DRINK! DRINK!! DRINK!!!...."
"It smells... bad" he exhaled and took the cup closing his eyes and drank the whole thing he dropped the cup and kept his head down..
"Is he dead?" Peter asked
"Are you ok?" Charlie asked
"YEAH!!! OH MY GOD"
"HOW DID IT FEEL"
"AWESOME"
"WHY ARE WE YELLING?" peter asked
The party went on, alfred and peter were in the kitchen talking, thomas and sacha were talking in the living room, herman was sleeping on arlene's shoulder and charlie was talking to Gabriel
"Charlie... i'm not feeling so good.."
"Huh? You must be drunk then ..."
"No i'm... hot"
"What do you mean"
"I..." gabriel's head was throbbing like crazy and he got up and stumbled on his feet
"Woah!! Hey!!.... arlfred!!!"
Alfred came running "what's up?"
....
"What was in those drinks...
I warned you that was a stupid idea..." afred said in frustration
"but i don't think he's just drunk tho...." thomas said
"Charlie stay here with him if he gets too hot just take care of it" alfred said "i'm gonna call a doctor"
Alfred left and went to call a doctor, minewhile Arlene entered the room where Charlie and Gabriel were
"charlie.. Alfred is calling you he said the doctor said something"
Charlie looked at her concerne etched on her face "ok keep an eye on Gabriel i'm coming" Charlie left and Arlene locked the door...
"It's been so long since i've seen you Gabriel.. you are hot you say right" she caressed his cheek making him flinch slightly
Arlene unbuttoned his shirt "once i do this you'll forever be mine"...
.....
"Alfred? You called me?" Charlie asked walking in the kitchen where Alfred was standing
"What are you doing here you were supposed to be with Gabriel"
"Huh?" She paused "but you were calling me right?"
"No i wasn't..
"But Arlene-
"Guys whete is thay noise coming from it's like muffled whimperings or something* Herman asked
"FUCK"
Charlie pounded at the door "OPEN IT ARLENE...Alfred, Herman call the king the quenn just call someone quick hurry"
What happened after that was a blur. things were moving slowing yet nothing made sens
All i can remember is the door breaking down..arlene yelling... Gabriel was drenched in sweat and barely conscious everything was spinning and before i knew it i fainted too...
"Charlie! Charlie"
I heard a voice.. was it sasha's? Or alfred?
CHARLIE!
No it's.. thomas?
Why would it be thomas? Where are the others? I slowly opened my eyes "thomas?" I whispered "where are the others?"
"They are at the hospital but since you fainted i had to wake you up so i stayed behind"..
Huh? This makes no sens... why didn't alfred stay back everyone knows thomas isn't the best to help others.. i slowly sat up wincing in pain, my head was still throbbing.
"Which hospital?"
"I don't know"
My eyes widened. None ofcthis made sens they told him to stay behind but they didn't tell him where they were going? So are we supposed to wait for them here? And for that they chose no one but thomas?
"Hey are you ok? Is your head throbbing?"
I looked at him with wide eyes... Gabriel told me you can know if a man is lying through his smile. And thomas' smiled gelt like everything but normal. Something is wrong.. i quickly got up
"Hey!"
"I am going to the village's central hospital.. they must be there."
"They aren't.." i paused and turned to look at him my brows furrowing "what?"
"It's best you stay here..."... i clenched my jaw "are you hiding something from me thomas?" He seemed taken aback and his expression darkened "fine go!"
As i turned to leave my heart dropped when i saw through the mirror on the wall thomas with a knife in his hands..
He brought the knife up and my reflexes kicked in. I used a purse on the table to shield myself but the knife pieced through the purse and slashed my cheek. Thank God it wasn't deep. I quickly tried opening the door but it was locked, thomas charged at me and i covered my face with my arms... think charlie, think! Or you'll die here!
