Chapter 4

Recap:

"Hello," someone spoke from behind me, "Nice to meet you, Eve"

I turned around to see the person I had least expected to find after all these years "Will?!"

Suddenly everything around me started spinning, the music got too loud to handle and the last thing I saw was me falling down and Will catching me before everything went black.

*Flashback*

I was all ready to go, today's party is going to be amazing. I was touching up my outfit when the doorbell rang, I run to open the door to find Will with his charming smile and a rose in his hand.

"For you," He smiles handing me the red rose,"You look beautiful Eve."

"Thank you," I thank him timidly, I feel the blood rushing to my cheeks and silently thank myself for putting on blush, "You look good too."

He was dressed in black dress pants and a black tux, today was our first date. In fact, it was my first date with anyone.

The 15-year-old me was so ecstatic. My excitement shone through the colours of the soft pink fabric of the dress with the sweetheart neckline. I was dolled completely from the eyeshadow on my eyelids to the loose curls of my hair.

"Shall we?" He asks extending his hand; I grab his hand and walk out.

"We shall," I grin closing the door behind me, after keeping the rose he gave me on the table and walk with him to his dad's car.

"I can't drive yet, so my dad asked the driver to pick and drop us," He says with a small smile, "I hope you don't mind."

"Of course I don't mind," I tell him reassuringly. Being around him always had made my stomach flutter, "So, where is this party anyway?" I question as I sit in the back seat after him.

"Oh, just at a friend's house," He replies casually with a shrug, "All our friends are going to be there."

"Even Luke?" I couldn't help but ask, he is my twin brother and we went everywhere together.

"Yeah, Luke will be there too," He smiles, that lovely charming smile, "He is our friend after all."

Ten minutes later, we arrive at the party and apparently, it was a high school party, and since now we were in high school, we could attend it. It was at some senior's house, and the party was as I expected it to be, as we entered the house, our hands intertwined, the smell of alcohol and sweat stung my nose, the music had been so loud we could hear it from blocks away.

"Let's go find everyone" Even though Will was screaming I barely heard him over the loud music, what an amazing start to a first date, "I think they're all in the main lounge."

"Yeah, let's go" I nod, knowing he probably couldn't hear me over the noise, I follow him elbowing my way through people, who were grinding and making out and doing God knows what else with each other.

..................................................

*End of flashback*

I jolt up to find myself on my bed; Will was seated on my beanbag, aimlessly scrolling through his phone.
He closes the book shut and faces me. "Oh good, you're up, I was so bored."

"Will?" I say, not believing my eyes, "What are you doing here?"

"Babe," He smirks, getting up and sliding his phone in his jeans, "I'm just here to finish what I started."

Knowing exactly what he meant by that, I get up and run to the door, but Will grabs me by my wrist and pushes me against the wall before I'm even close to the door. He puts his hands on the wall around my head caging me as he leans in - his breath reeking of alcohol and cigar- and starts to trail kisses on my neck and collarbone.

I've had enough of this, I mutter to myself, and kick him in the groin, this causes his grip on me to loosen and I run to the door and open it to find a very confused James.

I shakily look at James, it seems like he understands because when I look at him he's already glaring daggers at Will, who was coming out of my room.

James helps me sit on the corridor floor and grabs Will's collar and punches him, Will too, throws a couple of blows at James, but in the end, he winds up on the floor. James rushes to me, but just then I can't breathe.

oh no...

My eyes blur and I realize that I'm shaking, "Eve, Eve!" James shakes me but I can't talk.

I look at him and wheeze out "C-Can't breathe," James grabs my face in his large hands and looks at me right in the eyes and says, "Eve, look at me, breathe in and out, relax..."

I inhale and exhale painfully, my eyes watering, "Close your eyes," he whispers, I close my eyes, but I'm still shaking. James removes his jacket and wraps it around me; I take out my phone and with shaking fingers text Matt;

ME: Code green.

Code green was a code we had created after the incident two years ago, it was supposed to be used during emergencies.

I sigh; if James wasn't here today I would've -

I get cut off from my train of thoughts when Will groans.

"Shit," James curses, "I thought I had got him good."

Will gets up, "Oh you got me good," He says spitting out blood, "But I'm not leaving without getting what I want, again."

James chuckles but it sounds deadly, "You son of a Bitch, there won't be an again."

On cue, Matt enters and says, "What's wrong?" 

He then sees Will and shouts "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?" 

He then looks at James and demands, "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS MOTHERFUCKER DOING HERE?!"

James starts to speak but gets cut off by Matt who looks at Will menacingly, "Imma kill you."

I try to speak, "Uh, Will tried to--"

"He tried to what?" Matt cuts me off.

"He tried to d-" James starts but Matt cuts him off again, his eyes filled with rage, 

"He tried to what?" Matt looks at Will and asks, "You tried to what?"

"I tried to--" Will says deadpanned but Matt cuts off again, "TRIED TO WHAT?!" Matt yells.

James and I slap him on each of his cheek, "He tried to fucking to do what he started."

Matt groans and says, "Why didn't you just tell me?"

I slap him again; James sits down watching us, "Stop cutting me off then."

Will comes and grabs me by my waist, "Oh, no you don't," James says as he pulls Will by his foot causing him to fall with me on top of him.

The asshole has the guts to lean in and kiss me but James grabs me from Will and secures me in his arms.

Matt straddles Will and throws repeated punches at him, "Stop, you'll kill him," I try to stop him, but Matt scowls and says, "I'll be doing him a big favour then."

Before Matt could actually kill Will, James pushes Matt off of Will. He roughly shakes Matt's shoulders to make Matt focus on him, "Listen to me Matt, we can't fucking waste our time here with this motherfucker. Evelyn needs us right now..."

They both come towards me and James snakes his arm around my waist and helps me stand up from my crouched position. With shaking legs I stand up and the guys help me make my way downstairs, away from Will.

Someone should call the police.
___________________________

We go downstairs to see the party alive and rocking, I spot Ricky and Sally slow dancing in the corner.

I know the situation is rough but I couldn't help but squeal 'RALLY for life'.

I put an arm around Sally and they snap out of it, I smirk at her and raise my eyebrow, she gives me the 'We-Will-Talk-About-It-Later' look, I shrug and wink at Ricky as he blushes.

Matt nudges Ricky and says, "So you and Sally, huh?" Ricky turns crimson and says, "You and- BLOOD?! What the hell happened?!"

Matt cracks his knuckles and says one word that throws Ricky and Sally in a rage fit,

"Will."

I calm them down as James shows up; it's now that I notice the bruises on his cheek and jawline. I gasp and drag him to the kitchen mumbling, "Let's get you cleaned up."

I press a pack of frozen peas to his cheek, causing him to hiss in pain.

Ricky and Matt both enter the kitchen, and Ricky says, "We'll stay overnight, you never know when that fucker will show up again."

I nod, that would be the best thing to do, I then notice the close proximity between James and me so I quickly take a step back with a blush as James smirks.

Ricky nudges me, "Ooo James, huh?" And he turns to James and says, "Eve, huh?"

Matt winks at me as James whispers something in Matt and Ricky's ear and they both turn red, he winks at them and they run away.

_____________________

Soon the party is over, Will is taken to the police by Luke, I go upstairs to clean off all the filth, scrubbing every part of my body he touched and then I dealt with an angry Luke, explaining to him about everything that happened.

Matt and Ricky were still avoiding James, and whenever I ask him about it he just laughs and shrugs it off.

Sally changes into my clothes and Matt and Ricky borrow clothes from Luke; I steal one of Luke's jackets and give it to James who then leaves.

Finally, Sally and I lay down in my room, with Matt and Ricky in Luke's room. Sally falls asleep immediately, she wraps an arm around me and I feel my eyes getting heavy with sleep before I drift away into my dark world of demons.

"Will? What are you doing here?" I ask, he was standing in front of me with a scowl on his face.

"If I can't have you, then no one can." He takes a step closer to me and raises his hand, I prepare myself for the hit, but his hand holds a silver dagger clutched tightly in it.

I try to scream but my voice is muffled, I suddenly feel a sharp pain going through my lower abdomen, I touch my abdomen with shaking hands to see blood.

"Eve?" I hear Sally's voice, but I don't see her, "Eve?!" I feel shaking, "EVE!" the shaking gets vigorous.

I wake up with a start and my eyes zero in on a very concerned Sally, and I hug her immediately.

Thank god, it was just a dream, a Nightmare...

"Why didn't you tell me they were back?" Sally frowns as she rubbed my back comfortingly, I could feel beads of sweat on my forehead and spine.

"I didn't know either," I mutter, "this is like the first one I had in months." I was still hugging her tightly.

"What's the time?" I finally ask after a few minutes.

Sally takes her phone from the side table and says, "It's quarter to seven."

"Let's get ready," I groan, "and get this day started."

"Sure," Sally smiles getting up, she had always been a morning person unlike me.

I sighed getting up as well. "I'm just going to go take a quick shower," I tell her, "take anything you want to wear from my wardrobe."

"Duh," she smiles rolling her eyes. I grab my clothes and enter the bathroom.

_______________________________

I go downstairs to see Luke, Matt and Ricky seated at the table eating Froot loops, Sally was busy making herself some coffee.

"Morning." I greet everyone, and open the fridge to take some juice out; I lazily twisted the cap open and drank the juice from its box.

"Ahh, come on Eve, others have to drink it too," Luke grunts. "Don't put your mouth on it!"

I groaned rolling my eyes and grabbed a glass to pour myself some juice, "Happy?" I asked glaring at him. He shrugged and turned to what he was doing.

"Whoa, we had a party last night and yet we are ready early," Ricky said, after checking his wristwatch.

"I know right," Matt replies, and turns to me and asks, "Why aren't you dressed yet?"

I look down at my clothes and shrug "This is how I'll be today." I was wearing my black oversized hoodie, blue ripped jeans and my favourite black converse.

"Why?" Matt questioned, "You always dress up and put makeup and shit."

"I'm too lazy to dress up and put makeup and shit," I reply, tying my almost dried hair in a bun. I avoided everyone's gaze, they can't know about the nightmare.

Luke raises an eyebrow and gets to put his bowl in the washer. He approaches me and surprises me when he wraps his arms around me.

I instantly feel comforted, "You had another nightmare, didn't you?" He whispers in my ear.

I nod and sigh, "I'm sorry, I didn't want you to be worried."

He tightens his grip and says, "It's fine."

I guess this is the best part of having a twin. He understands anything without explanations.

"Hey, what are you guys talking about, that we can't listen to, huh?!" Matt whines.

I pull away from the hug and go pat him on his head.

"Aww, you poor baby." I snicker; Matt swats my hand away and groans, "Why can't you just tell us?"

"Because Matt, sweetie, it's a twin thing," Ricky says in a sickeningly sweet voice.

"Ugh, I wish I had a twin," Matt says, taking his and Ricky's bowl and throwing its content and putting it in the washer.

"Hey!" Ricky whines, "I wasn't finished!" I ignore Ricky and turn to Matt.

"Trust me," I sigh, looking at Luke who was licking Nutella of his finger and dipping it back in the jar, "You don't."

____________________________________

After we were all done with our breakfast, Ricky complained and took another bowl of cereal.

Matt, Sally and Ricky left but that was fine since they planned to come back to my house anyway, they were going to help us clean the mess of the party.

...............................................

It was almost lunchtime when all of them walked in again.

"Guys, I'm leaving in like three days," I state.

"I know," Sally replies, "It's so sad, we will all miss you."

"You guys will visit though right?" I ask, looking at all of them.

"Yeah of course." Matt replies smiling, "We'll visit as much as we can."

"Mhmm," Ricky agrees, "Oh, by the way, let's have a small proper hangout before you go, the party was ruined because you know..."

"Yeah," I frown, but shake my head and smile, "Well at least some of us enjoyed it." I grin looking at Sally and then winking at Ricky.

Sally blush furiously, "Nothing happened." She said giving Ricky a look.

"Yeah totally," Matt mutters rolling his eyes.

"Anyways," Ricky said diverting our attention from the topic. "yall up for a sleepover tonight?"

"Okay," I smile liking his idea, "Oh, and we can even have a water fight, I'm pretty sure I have some balloons sprawled around the house."

"Sounds good," Sally smiles, eating her fries. I snicker as Ricky steals a fry from her plate.

Sally caught him stealing another fry and swatted his hand away.
