Chapter 69 - Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste
This is how I imagined it to be if I were in an accident. Darkness, confusion and pain shooting behind my head.
My body felt heavy like I had drunk too much and now lost the ability to move my limbs.
Through the pain and the numbness I could hear the closing of draws. Good then I was waking up. I forced my fingers to move, doing one at a time.
They felt stiff until I clenched them.
It is then I feel something wrapped around my wrist. It is wrapped so tightly that I am unable to shift my hands, only my fingers. It was digging into my flesh, certainly leaving a mark.
My lips part as I groan, forcing my heavy eyelids to open. My vision is blurry at first but it soon clears when I blink. The sight of the woman that seemed so harmless was in front of me smirking.
“Good you’re awake.” She smiles.
I pressed my lips together and tried to move out of the wooden chair she
seemed to have placed me in. But my hands are bonded behind the chair and my ankles are tied together.
I stop struggling seeing that it is useless for now. “Why are you even doing this? I don’t know you.” I spit feeling my head pulse. Whatever she had in that cloth certainly did a number on me.
She raises a brow and bends until her eyes are at my level. “So you’re saying that Asher never mentioned me? I thought what we had was special?” She mocked then reaches over to pinch my cheeks.
I shake my head angrily not wanting her nasty hands on my face. “My dad never mentioned a senile person.” I glared. Maybe I shouldn’t provoke her. She throws her head back laughing. “Senile? Darling I’m perfectly okay.” She sighs and gets up.
She trails a finger down my cheek and I immediately feel disgust. “You look just like your mom. Pretty and perfect. It’s no wonder all the guys go for y’all.”
I wrench away from her fingers as best as I could and glared up into her cold eyes. “Don’t touch me.” I snapped.
She smirks. “What, you rather Blake touch you huh? Like how he Fcked you in clas, in the bathroom and on the field?” us all those out pictures of y’all for memories. I sent one to you and your dad did you not evil glint in her eyes this lady could really have pa*sed for

So she lied about bringing pills to her mom? This also means that this psycho lives alone.
She then comes to me and places the tap over my mouth. My voice is muffled by the tap. I glare at her in hatred.
“You don’t know how long I’ve been waiting to pay them back for what they did to me. Because of them I couldn’t get a decent job, my parents disowned me and no one looked at me the same anymore. They ruined me. Just like I will ruin you.” She hisses.
Then she smiles and kisses my lips, the only thing blocking our lips from touching was the tap. Bile rose in my throat as I wrenched back.
“Now stay still little doll.” She grins and pulls back. She walks to the counter and clutches the gun.
The sound of a familiar motorcycle is loud as it nears the house. My heart races as sweat covers my skin. Oh Blake. Please don’t come. My eyes filled with water when Shelly walks up to the window and peeks behind the curtain. She smirks pulling away and stares at me. “Looks like your loverboy is here. I need to get ready.” She almost squeals as she walks away and disappears god knows where.
I feel helpless as tears roll down my cheeks. I hear the motorcycle stop and I knew Blake must be coming over here. I shake my head trying to scream and fumble around to escape my coffins.
I feel dread cross my features when Blake’s voice calls out for me. “Is anyone here? Ashley?” He shouts. His voice was close to the door. I try to scream again pushing my tongue onto the tap to see if it could move. It doesn’t.
“Come in Blake, she’s using the bathroom. She’ll be back in a minute!” Shelly’s voice shouts from an unknown part of the house. I cried louder wanting him to hear me.
I push up on my feet, feeling that the chair rises a bit and slam back down.
It’s loud and I really hope he hears it. The door opens and I shake my head furiously widening my eyes in alarm as Blake enters.
His blue eyes widen in horror when he sees me. “What the F*ck?” He roars and runs up to me in panic.
I shake my head shouting for him to leave this place before he gets hurt. But any sound I want to make gets muffled by the tap.
He quickly pulls the tap away from my mouth. I ignore the sting it leaves and shout. “Blake get out, leave me and call the cop-“
I didn’t have time to finish when the sound of a loud bang stops me. My eyes widen in terror and pain when I look down at the right side of Blake’s chest. Blood was already seeping into the material of his shirt. I open my mouth to scream but nothing comes out.
His eyes wide as he stares at me in shock. “Ashley?” He calls out and falls to his knees as he gasps out in pain and looks down at his chest.
“Now why would you want to ruin my fun?” Shelly hissed entering the kitchen with the gun aiming at Blake and I. She shot him. She shot Blake.
