𝗡𝗔𝗧 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗢𝗨𝗧 soft grumbles in her sleep, tossing and turning under Naomi's bedsheet covers, her blonde hair was a mess sticking out in different directions. her makeup was smudged, particles of her mascara fell to her under eyes, Naomi was wide awake. Every time she would blink her eyes would adjust to the pitch black ceiling, lulling into a void of nothingness, the wind blew and whistled at her slightly ajar window, the branches banging at the bricks.
Her mind was playing those memories with Jeff like a VHS tape, continuously repeating his words in her head.
"I love you."
"You're so beautiful."
Was it all bullshit? Everytime she would convince herself those words were true her brain decided to play a trick on her and remember the party, the weird smiles and chuckles him and Jackie would share together. Then it would lead to how much of a horrible friend she was, to Tai's words.
"Your a loyal friend." Yeah, fucking, right.
Her cold fingers would massage the hickeys, messily covered with concealer on her neck, shivering from the contrast of body heat, she would sigh, then the cycle would repeat again.
Amelia sat in the creaky blue school chair, her legs crossed, nibling on the inside of her cheeks thinking about what to say, Shauna sat beside her rather then a pissed look like Amelia she had a worried face plastered on top, Then there was jeff. His lips formed a frown, brows furrowed but his eyes were sad, the same worried expression Shauna had.
"You can come in now." The door creaked open a women late 30s stood in the doorframe, a not so neat bun a way too short pencil shirt and a way too bright bra poking through her white blouse.
"Fucking finally." Amelia grumbled, standing up first pushing past the women she stepped into the principles office, she had put a lot of thought of what to say when Jeff drove them all to the high school, but seeing Sherrie's curly brown hair, tan skin and blue eyes paired with a dried nosebleed made her want to scream.
"What the fuck where you thinking, Sherrie?" Amelia gasped, stomping over to her daughter lifting up her head to wipe away the left over blood, Jeff and Shauna went over to Callie's side she was mostly fine, apart from a slightly swollen left cheek and a small bruise.
Sherrie went silent.
"You better have a pretty good reason for this before I-" Amelia gritted her teeth before the principle started talking.
"Thanks for getting here so quickly." He nodded, Amelia took the seat, right of Sherrie, Left of Shauna, Callie sat in the middle of her and Jeff.
"Its.. Fine." Amelia put on a smile, Shauna nodded.
"Well.. After a thorough investigation." He began, Amelia rolled her eyes.
"We think that, this was over... a boy?" The principle cringed as Amelia scoffed with disgust
"A guy? You fought a girl over a guy." Amelia's jaw dropped as Sherrie cringed, biting her lower lip.
Shauna and Jeff's eyes met
"Its not my fault she's a fucking cunt." Sherrie spat out her words like poison, leaned towards Callie rolling her eyes, Jeff's eyes widened
"Woah-" Jeff begun, Shauna put a hand on his arm shutting him.
"Have you gone insane? I get that shits been tough, but you don't get the right to be a dickhead because of it!" Amelia watched as Sherrie sighed, slouching her her chair
"What even happened for this- fight to break out?" Shauna asked Callie, she looked away
"She was flirting with my boyfriend." Callie mumbled making Sherrie let out a laugh
"Oh my god, are you that insecure or something, I wasn't flirting with him, we were paired up for a science project!" Sherrie growled as Amelia pushed her back
"Woah, calm it down. So.. you were paired with her boyfriend for a science project, she thought you were flirting with him, then what?" Shauna asked Sherrie
"Then she started shouting at me to 'leave her boyfriend alone, that 'he doesn't want me' so i said i was just trying to do my work, so she went all fucking crazy throwing punches and shit." Sherrie snapped as Callie looked down at her feet in defeat.
"Holy shit." Amelia let out a laugh of pure disbelief as the principle finally said something.
"Well, given both girls got into a fight, its mandatory I suspend them for at least a week."
Sherrie grunted as Amelia took her phone off her shoving it into her back pocket as the five of them left the school building, Amelia chuckled as she saw Jeffs car.
"Fuck, right, I hitched a ride with you." Amelia sighed turning around to look at them
"Oh.. No worries we'll give you a ride home." Jeff shrugged , Sherrie grunted.
"What? Why were you with them to begin with?" Sherrie tugged on her mothers arm
"Because smartass, they're our neighbours, Just get in the car, the real adults need to speak." Amelia watched as Sherrie stomped off to the car, Callie barely looked up at her.
"Fuck.. I'm so fucking sorry.." Amelia's tone changed in seconds "I mean, I knew moving would be difficult and shit but- I don't know what I did wrong.." Amelia sighed looking to the car, Sherrie's eyes following the sky.
"No no, its fine, its Callie's fault anyway." Jeff shrugged, Shauna nodded, Amelia bit her lip as she thought for a second looking back from the car to them
"You three should come over for dinner tonight. we can sort this out, properly."
No Diggity from Blackstreet blasted through Naomi's radio, Nat joking humped her, Naomi folded their clothes, a laugh escaped her as she pushed her away, the two dancing around her room.
"What about... this?" Nai pulled out a small pink flowery dress, shaking it to show the frills
"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought we were packing for nationals not to go to bible camp with Laura Lee." Nat laughed throwing her folded underwear at her, only for Naomi to stick her tongue out at her turning back to her wardrobe looking for more clothes.
"Bring more jumpers and shit, My dad told me Seattle is like, really rainy." Naomi threw her mauve sweater as Nat.
The plane was an understatement of rich, it was massive, clean and otherwise perfect. Naomi had never been on a plane before, her father was already too busy traveling around the world for his job and her mother was probably too drunk in some random alleyway to even remember she had a child, her hand interlinked with Nat's as they walked down the pathway, choosing a random isle to sit together,
Natalie ended up dragging Naomi to some random seat, taking the window seat whilst Nai took the middle seat, the two giggled as the plane begun to move.
Naomi let out a yawn. Maybe not sleeping all night took a toll on her.
Her head rested on Nat's shoulder as she drifted to sleep.
Naomi felt Nat's shake her awake, both of Nat's hands went to her upper arms forcing her to jolt awake. She was tired, looking around, her eyesight of blurry and confusion began to kick in, Nat pulled down Naomi's mask forcing it around Naomi's face. It was shaky, causing the two to rumble around in their seats a little.
After a while of blinking herself awake and trying to comprehend whatever Nat was trying to say to her, she looked out the window. the plane was going down. gushes of wind sped past them, the sky quickly changed into a forest
Nat gripped onto Nai's hand, her black nails digging into her skin, causing it to turn white, Naomi turned her head there was a lot of screaming. there was a lot of banging and rustling around the plane moved a lot, Naomi probably had a few bruises from the amount of times she banged her head.
The plane crash landed into a forest. Nat's grip loosened slightly, she was sobbing hysterically, panting for air, Naomi was shaking, breathing heavily she shook as she tried to stand up, pulling Nat up with her.
Misty and Tai were prying open the door to the plane, Naomi took off her oxygen mask, letting out shallow breaths as she leaned against an empty seat.
She could see Misty, Tai, Lottie and a few others leave the plane. Where was Van?
"Fuck- No Shauna don't leave me!" The fire sort of overwhelmed her begging voice but Nai turned around, Jackie and Shauna soon left the plane
"Nat. Go." Naomi pushed Natalie towards the door, before mauveing her way past the rubble, she let out a sharp hiss as the plane moved again, barely able to catch her feeting. she felt the air leave her lungs as she passed the dead body of Rachel.
"Van?" She yelled out, her voice was dry and sore, this time the plane moved again Naomi couldn't catch herself a scream was let out as a broken piece of metal impaled the skin above her hip, blood oozed out, soaking her yellowjacket's varsity jacket.
"Naomi?" A voice yelled back, Nai tried her best to push forward to the back of the plane, The fire was growing closer, practically burning the baby hairs on her neck when she reached Van.
"Fuck- Okay, Im gonna lift this up, you need to quickly move." Naomi explained, she let out a moan of pain moving her blood covered hand to the cabinet, crushing Van. She nodded the best she could, unbuckling the seatbelt Naomi begun to lift, she let out grunts of frustration as her hand slipped slowly down leaving large blood hand prints on the cool grey metal, she let out another scream as the palm of her left hand was sliced open from a blown open piece of metal.
Van threw herself out. Holding onto the opposite seat and Naomi's shoulder for support. Naomi gasped as she let go her hand had a large crooked cut from the bottom of her index finger to the freckle on the bottom right of her palm.
The plane exploded, Naomi stepped out of the plane after van, right in front of Shauna and Jackie.
"Surprise." Van grunted before pulling Naomi away, she turned back to see Jackie's and Shauna's shocked expressions.
Van soon went off to hug tai, Naomi lifted up her shirt, the piece of small metal stuck out of her skin like mushrooms growing off a tree, the skin was bruised and sore, blood clots formed around her broken skin, tears of it dropping down her hips collected by her denim jeans she let out a gasp, banging the back of her head near a tree.
"Holy fuck, I thought you died out there!" Nat cried pulling her into a hug, Naomi cried causing her to pull away, she winced seeing the blood gush out of her staining her white tank top red.
"Oh, shit.." Nat groaned out loud catching most people attention, stepped back as Misty came closer, along with Shauna and Tai.
"We need to take it out." Misty gave Nat whatever she was holding before as she moved to lift up Naomi's shirt.
"W-wai-!" Naomi was cut off by Misty pulling out the piece of metal, a scream was ripped out of her lungs before the clattering sound of the metal falling to the ground was heard. Tai let out a gag as Nat shouted as Misty to stop.
Naomi's head went dizzy, her eyes started to black out, she could barely make out words she felt as if the whole world was spinning, her head rested against the moss of the tree, her skin pale and sweaty with pink flushed cheeks.
"Nai? Naomi stay awake!" Nat shook her awake, her eyes blinked, but the voices were becoming clearer, Taissa was by her side lifting her shirt up just under her bra whilst Misty wrapped a large strip of 'bandages' around her waist settling it on the cut, It was horrible to look at, the metal sliced her skin open in different ways the cut became crooked stretching round to her back slightly.
"Misty, hurry the fuck up!" Nat screamed at her, before turning back to her brushing brown strands of hair behind her ears her other hand resting on Nai's good hand.
Then the dizziness returned, splotches of black made her blink faster, her breath became shallow ,misty tightened the bandages. this time she couldn't stop from fainting.
"Wait, so you called your child after a Spanish wine?" Shauna asked taking a sip of the red wine, Callie and Sherry sat opposite of each other, both silent as they messed around with the food on their plates, Amelia let out a loud laugh.
"No! Sherrie, with an ie, not sherry with a y." Amelia laughed sipping her wine. "I named her after Sherrie Levine, The famous photographer?" Sherrie rolled her eyes.
"Famous photographer.." Jeff begun, repeating Amelia's words "You know who that remind me of, Shauna?" Jeff nudged Shauna who just shrugged taking another sip of wine. "Naomi." The air went silent around them, Amelia looked at her plate, gulping down larger sips of wine her, Sherrie and Callie waiting for her response, she had none, so jeff continued.
"She was always great at Photography, what ever happened to her?" Jeff asked another sip of wine.
"I don't know, she left town after the crash." Shauna's words weren't filled with hatred, but with sorrow, Amelia coughed.
"How does ice cream sound?" Amelia questioned, taking another gulp of wine.
"No, wait, I want to know about this Naomi girl, what crash?" Sherrie asked, leaning in closer letting her fork clatter on the plate.
"You never told me about anyone called Naomi?" Callie agreed.
"Well..." Shauna begun, Amelia shot up from her seat.
"I'm going to wash the dishes." Amelia mumbled taking away her and Sherrie's plate, Callie stared at her confused.
Amelia put the water pressure as high as it would go, hoping it would drown out the sounds of Shauna's speaking, it didn't. So she zoned out instead, aggressively scrubbing the plates, until the water turned out, She flipped to see Jeff, Plates in one hand, his other arm was still on the tap.
"Oh, Im sorry." Amelia smiled, taking the plates off of him putting them into the sink.
"No worries, you ok, you got pretty freaked out when Shauna was talking about the crash?" Jeff moved, leaning against the counter as Amelia put the tap back on, on a lower setting this time.
"Im fine, I- Im fine." Amelia nodded putting the washed plate onto the pile of washed dishes, Jeff started wiping them down with a table cloth.
"So, your new to town." Jeff begun small talk, Amelia wanted to sigh and tell him to fuck off but she swallowed her thoughts.
"Yeah, I used to travel alot, for my work.. But Sherrie's that age now, she needs to settle down for collage." Amelia rambled sort of hoping he would get bored and listen to Shauna instead.
"Oh? What's your job?" He asked placing the now dried dishes into a new pile.
"Journalist." Amelia watched as Jeff nodded placing the plate into the new pile, She picked up a knife, her thoughts went else where as the sponge slipped her grip, the knife slicing her palm open. from the bottom of her index finger, to the freckle on the bottom right of her hand.
Amelia let out a shaky breath. letting the blood drip down her palm for a second before Jeff reacted for her.
"Shit." Jeff grabbed her wrist leading it to the tap, watching the water turn from white into a light red colour. his large hand wrapped around hers as he placed the table cloth on her palm, pressing gently on it.
"Nasty cut." He mumbled, keeping his hand against hers, moving closer so their arms were touching.
"Yeah.."
A scream escaped Laura Lee, Jolting Naomi awake, her head went back as she felt the bandages on her side, remembering the cut the crash where they were.
Naomi lifted herself up her gaze going to her left hand, it was wrapped up.
There was a body perched in the tree Laura Lee stood at, horrified. it was coach, Javi yelled for his dad as Naomi stood beside him, a hand resting on his back.
"Holy Macaroni, Is that?-" Misty begun, wide eyed.
"Hes got to be dead, right?" Natalie asked before Nai smacked her on the arm.
"Nat." Naomi warned, her eyes flickering to Javi stood by her side.
"Okay, who has the best arm?" Jackie begun before Naomi cut in.
"What?- Oh are we going throw rocks at him now?" Naomi scoffed as Van agreed.
"Oh yeah, that's a fuck-ton smarter, your on fire today, Jackie, oh wait that's supposed to be me." Van grunted, her words layered in sarcasm. Naomi looked at the ginger girl sadly.
"Okay, stop it, we need a plan." Shauna said cutting off their arguments.
"We could lower him down with ropes?" Laura Lee looked around, holding her stuffed bear between her arms, some rolled their eyes but all stayed quiet.
"Vines then, I don't know.." Laura Lee's hope disintegrated as Nat scoffed.
"fucks sake, Laura Lee, we're not going to Tarzan him out of the tree." Nat shot down her idea.
"You got a better idea?" Jackie spoke up as Naomi cut in again.
"Then shoes and ropes? Yeah, cut down the fucking tree. " Naomi shrugged as Jackie rolled her eyes.
Travis came out and begun climbing the tree?
"Travis?" Naomi yelled her hand going to his arm, but she was already injured and weaker then him he escaped her grasp with ease.
Everyone shouted at him to stop, but of course he didnt listen, continuing going further and further up the tree, the tree creaked and moaned as he got closer to the branch his father was perched on.
"Travis, dont be a dick, just- get fucking down!" Naomi yelled up at him.
The branch almost snapped off, Van yelled at him to move back, luckily he did, the branch snapped off, the coaches body and the branch landed on the blankets, he was impaled in the chest, his skin was pale and sickly looking, Naomi gagged noticing the blood slowly seep through the blankets...
