Part 7

They all saw me. My eyes met with Chris'; the color of his face changed the second he saw me. My trembling legs started walking backwards, until I hit the bed and fell on it. I was shaking badly, still unsure of what I saw.

'I have to go home. They are going to kill someone. Someone is going TO BE DEAD.' My mind shouted as my body stayed still.

"Lisa. What happened? Are you alright?" Bella walked towards me. I looked at her. "Oh my God. Have you seen a ghost? What happened?" She said and started walking towards the window. Suddenly, something entered my body and I stopped her, holding her arm.

"NO." I almost shouted. She looked at me. Confused.

"I want to go home?" She just stared at me. "I NEED to go home." I rephrased my sentence and emphasized the word 'need' in attempt to convince her.

I regretted the time I didn't drive here myself. But the same time I was happy, now she had to drop me home. I was scared to be alone right now. We both went down. The party was lit.

"What happened?" Becca asked as soon as her eyes landed on me.

"Lisa is not feeling well." She informed everyone. I could feel David eyes on me, piercing through me. I ignored. 

"and now I have to go drop her off." She continued in a dull voice. I could see she didn't want to leave the party. But I didn't have any other option.

"I can drop her." David spoke in her thick voice. And my breath caught in my throat. "You know this party is anyway too loud for me." He confessed.

"You will?" The change in Bella's voice was evident. He just nodded and led the way. I followed him robotically, still confused, why he would volunteer dropping me off when he never talked to me.

I was walking behind him in the parking lot. My eyes were searching for any sign of those two boys and Chris, or was I scared to see them again. I was still uncertain.

"That's me." David announced. I came to a halt when I saw black Camaro.

'Chris has the same car.' My mind informed me, and I looked at David. He was standing at the driver's side.

"What?" He asked me, looking at my face.

'Two people can have same car. Stop overthinking' I shut my mind and got in his car.

The instant I got in his car. I knew it was Chris' car. His scent filled my mind and I got dizzy.

'Two people can use same cologne.' I satisfied my mind before it analyzed any further. But deep down I knew, it can't be a coincident. My bones were shaking, and I was too scared to even make a sound. I peeked through my eyes at him. His eyes were bolted towards the road. I looked at his hands, gripping hard on the wheel.

'Does he have the same power?' I thought. 'Power? What the hell are you saying? Are you even positive what you saw is real? Or your mind is messing with you?' and replied to my first thought. 'I am going crazy' I answered to both of my thought.

"Are you alright?" David asked me. Scaring me on my seat. I jerked a little.

"Yes." I replied in the weakest voice. I could recognize the streets. I knew we were near.

'Thank God'

"You shouldn't have seen what you saw today." David spoke unexpectedly and my face turned towards him, eyes bulging out. "You need to be extra careful now. You have put me and Chris into a very dangerous spot." He continued speaking without giving me time to comprehend the first line he said.

Our car was standing in front of my house now and I was glued to the seat staring into the air. Trying to make sense into what David was saying. He got out of the car. I could hear every motion but was too weak to move. He came at my door and opened it for me.

"You need to go now. Just be safe." He basically threw me out of the car and got back in. I was just standing like a dummy.

'What the hell is happening.' My mind screamed.

He lowered the side window. "Go in. It's not safe out here now." He instructed me and I followed his instruction like a child. I went in.

Once in my room. I lied down in my bed after checking my window.

'Okay, restart your mind.' I talked to myself and took a deep breath.

'Okay so, Chris and David are friends, and both are aliens with power. And there are some bad aliens as well.' I laid out the first theory popped into my mind. But debunked it as it sounded stupid.

'I could be hallucinating. May be London's air is not suiting me'. I laid out another theory. That made more sense to me. but debunked it as well. Because it was also not making sense considering everything. Thinking about different scenarios, I went into sleep unintentionally.

Little hustle in my room and my eyes flew open. I could feel someone's presence behind me, but I was so scared to check. I stayed like this for a second, thinking what I should do. My mind was silent and I got more scared. Lying still, I could feel a black figure standing still. I peeked through my eyes and that figured moved a little. I froze, not even breathing. I was just lying there, my every joint was glued. Plan popped up in my mind. I slowly turned, pretending I was still asleep. As I turned, that figure moved more into the dark towards the window. I could see the window was open. I was so scared. I covered my face with the blanket and stayed still then. I was giving up on my mind. I was not sure everything that has been happening in my life was a dream or reality. I was in a life threating situation right now and I was too coward to make a sound. I never knew myself this puny. I started crying under my breath, under my blanket.

'Please I want to go back. I don't want any of this. Please help me.'My mind finally spoke, and I felt a relieve that someone was with me.    

Gray light woke me up. Last night events flashed back through my mind and suddenly, I threw my blanket away. There was no one in my room and the window was closed. I stared at the ceiling trying to make sense of everything, but nothing did. I gave up and got ready for school.

I could see a black Camaro in parking. I was still confused if it was of David's or Chris'. They both had one, or they share. I decided not to think about it but was adamant that I will ask Chris about last night. I was very doubtful about the last night events but at that moment, I couldn't care any less about the reality. I had to talk to him.

First two periods were the slowest time of my life, yet they were a blur. My mind couldn't focus on anything else. And finally, English period came. I almost ran to the class and got there before the teacher. I was heavily breathing, as I saw his empty seat I sighed in disappointment. He was not there. I shook my head and went to my seat.

"Are you feeling alright?" Bella asked me from behind.

"Yes, Thank you." I turned and answered her. "I am sorry about last night. I hope I didn't ruin your party for you." I apologize with an apologetic smile.

"It's okay. I missed you though." I smiled on her reply and turned the chair back.

I spotted him in the doorway coming to the class and my shoulders stiffed. He stopped when our eyes met. He stared at me for a minute and went back.

'WHAT' My mind shouted. Now I was angry at him.

The last bell rang, and I went to the parking lot, trying to find him on the way but he was just vanished.

I sat in my car. I could see the black Camaro at the rearview mirror. Suddenly, my mind restarted, and I started waiting for whoever owns that car. David or Chris, whoever. Because I needed some explaining, some answers, anything.

Chris walked towards the car. He was alone.

'Where the hell he was hiding?' I thought.

He sat in the car, oblivious of my presence and drove away. My instincts took over my body and I started following him.

'Bad, very bad move' My mind screamed. 'Just keep driving' My mind replied. It was like I was living with two personalities and they both never listened to me.

I kept my distance. We were going little out of London. He suddenly took a turned and stopped his car in an abandoned alley. I parked my car in front of the alley on the other side of the road and started observing. There was an orange wooden door, rotten from rain. On the door hanged a rusty metal chain. He knocked the chain on the door. A woman, mid 20s opened the door. She had thick black hair waving on her face. Her eyes were same green colored as Chris'. She was really pretty. They talked for a second. Then, her eyes met with mine and at the same time Chris turned and saw me. Adrenaline took over my body and I ducked down in the car.

"Oh My God. Shit. Shit. Shit." I screamed. I was so embarrassed and scared. I wanted to dig myself a hole and burry myself alive.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Someone knocked my window.

'Kill me' My both mental personalities stayed silent this time, and I spoke.
