Chapter 1: The arrival

"There is no freaking way Sam," Monica scolds looking over at her while she sits beside Sam who's playing with her Korean long black hair nervously. "You're too," she pauses looking her up and down disgusted, "You. He wouldn't even glance your way moreover ask you out, so stop lying about Noah asking you to prom. I am the most popular girl in school if he wanted someone to ask to prom he would've asked me the hottest of this group-" this bitch is begging for it.

"Get over yourself already Monica, and stop being a wretched bitch and be more like a supportive friend-"

"Babe calm down, it's not worth it," my boyfriend convinces me.

"That's right listen to your boyfriend Julia-"

"Can you guys cut it out?" Beth pops her head to the back looking at us.

Monica rolls her eyes and begins flossing her nails.

"And enjoy the ride," she turns back around and intertwines her hand with her boyfriend as he drives to the manor. Blake and the others driving behind us. We were headed to Jeff's, Beth's boyfriend's grandparents' manor that died a couple of months ago for the week before heading back to school the following week.

The way to the manor was so long and uncomfortable, but we eventually made it, just an ampere-hour before sundown. The cars were parked before the manor and we open our doors and exit them, Blake whistling from the back as he and the rest wander up to us.

"This shit nice," he says and I agree.

The manor is gigantic and picturesque for something so old. It has vivid blocks place on the ground that goes all the way to the steps at the entrance with four huge stone columns creepers encircled around them, an exquisite garden is joined to the front of the manor and was growing all over it in various places as well as bushes. The manor has a water fountain before it but all the water is dried out, it is also build with stone and a chimney is on top of it.

Also, a lake is on the other side of the land surrounding by trees and bushes.

The manor is in the middle of nowhere fill with trees.

"Yo, how rich were you grandparents Jeff?" Riley questions browsing the house in amusement.

"I guess that rich to buy a multi-million dollar manor, let's get inside," he grabs his and Beth's bags and suitcases then starts his way towards it.

"What's wrong with you dude!" I turn to look at Blake as he's on top of Riley's back rubbing his head childishly laughing as Riley tries getting him off. Behind them is Jeremy straggling towards us with his suitcases struggling to get them to the manor meanwhile as Skylar knocks him out the way.

"Move bitch," she tells carrying her suitcases towards me then halts next to me.

"Hey! Just because I am gay doesn't give you the right to bully me Sky!" Jeremy snaps dropping his hands to his sides in frustration.

She ignores him looking at me, "So how was your ride with miss little too perfect?" I groan rolling my eyes. She is indicating to Monica.

"Don't even get me started."

She chuckles, "I'll see you inside," she walks off with Sam towards the manor.

"Bae help me with these," Liam my boyfriend says and I walk over to him grabbing two of my bags as he keeps some then we begin our way toward the wooden double doors.

"Hey, is anyone going to help me with my bags!" I hear Monica yell and we just proceed walking inside.

When I got inside I am welcome by a chandelier dangling from the ceiling, a wide grand entrance staircase on my left side another chandelier hanging at the top of the grand entrance stairs, and a piano next to the stairs at the bottom. Inside is old fashion but marvelous with arts of different battles that took place and peoples back in the days and portraits of Jeff's grandparents, the wall itself is manufactured with white tin board walls and can hardly be noticed. The floor is brown marbles and elegant vases and ornaments are all over in this place.

"Remind me to get rich one day," I hear Skylar state twisting a piece of her amazing curly afro hair.

We hear blundering and giggling and we turn to see Blake and Riley shoving each other and none of them has their bags. "Woah!" They say in sync looking around.

"Where are your bags?" Jeff asks, looking at them. The two boys exchanges look then run back outside giggling like idiots. We turn back and start our way towards the stairs making our way up the red carpet.

"They are a lot of rooms here so you guys can take anyone you like," Jeff reassures us.

We all grin excitedly, "Hell yeah!"

-

Liam and I come across this gorgeous bedroom and enter.

The room is so unique and comfy. It has a queen size bed a portrait with someone I don't recognize hanging on the wall, two nightstands at both sides and lamps on them, a window viewing out into the forest, and before the bed is a television from back in the days and shelves with some old dusty books, behind is a double door that leads to the closet and one that leads to the bathroom.

"This is nice," I turn to look at Liam, and his hands are free and he's looking at me with lust.

I giggle and sit on the bed and he smirks then walks over to me and kisses my lips, pinning my hands over my head then I hear a crash through the walls.

I stop kissing Liam and look behind me startle.

"What?" He questions confuse.

I turn to look at him, "I thought I heard something," I frown confuse.

"Maybe it's the rats, this house is really old and hasn't been used in months," I nod and kiss him. Maybe he's right.

***

Liam and I start our way down the grand entrance stairs and inside the living room where we see the rest of the group seated talking.

We go and sit and everyone starts looking at us.

"You guys done humping each other?" Skylar laughs and I shot her a death glare while the rest of the group chuckles and Monica rolls her eyes.

"So what are we doing?" I ask.

"I was thinking about playing truth or dare," Beth suggests.

"Unless you're in pre-school," Monica scolds and we all turn to look at her annoyed.

Why does she always have to demolish a good moment?

"You know what Monica? Why don't you just shut up, or go to your room if you don't want to be a part of this, by the way, I don't know why'd you even come in the first place when we never needed you to be here, because you always make things about yourself or make people unhappy!" Beth snaps at her and everyone inside the room is looking at her astound.

Beth isn't the type to snap but Monica deserves that.

The room is quiet and Monica is sitting with her arms cross and her face screwed up, Beth shut her right up.

The room is awkward and everyone is silent.

"I will start," Jeremy says sitting up and clasping his hands in the gayest way ever. "Truth or dare Julia?" He smirks and I sit up thinking about it.

"Dare," I think I can start things more interesting by going with the dare.

"I dare you to make out with uh...Beth!" I grin and walk over to Beth and she stands up before me.

Everyone is waiting to see what is going to happen.

I press my lips against Beth's and give her the entrance to my mouth, parting my lips. She places her tongue inside my mouth and I do the same, slowly moving my lips as she does the same. I hear amusing gasps from the group and some little 'I can't believe they did it' and 'that's hot' I smile against her lips and continue kissing her.

This is crazy I never made out with a girl, but yet I did it without hesitation.

We pull away and start smiling, "nice kiss, Julia," she turns and walks back towards the couch and sits next to her boyfriend and I do the same.

"Babe that was hot," Liam leans over and whispers in my ear and I smile at him.

"Okay, my turn," I say looking around at each and everyone in the group, "Truth or dare Monica?" I feel bad seeing her sitting like the way she is. Leaning back on the couch with her arms crossed.

"Truth whatever," she rolls her eyes.

I love this game, there has been a question I wanted to ask so long, "Did you sleep Mr. Charles to get a higher grade?" Everyone is waiting to hear her answer.

"Why this question, Julia?"

"Just answer the damn question Monica," Skylar scolds her.

"Fine, yes, I did, what is the big deal?"

"That's why you've been getting straight A's in all your classes. Are you sleeping with the rest of your male teachers?" Blake asks and everyone glares over at him.

"Be quiet Blake. It's your turn, Monica."

"But-"

"Shut it!" I snap at him

"Sam truth or dare?" She looks over at Sam.

"Truth."

"You can't say, truth twice in a row bimbo," Monica says rolling her eyes.

"Yes she can, you only can't say it three times," Beth tells her.

"Fine," she sighs, "What is your deepest darkest secret? You must have one because you're a loser- maybe it's Noah asking you to senior prom cause I know you're lying?"

I see rage flashes in Sam's eyes and she stands from the couch, I almost leap from my couch because I thought she is about to rush Monica.

"You wanna know my deepest darkest secret Monica! It's that you're sleeping with Skylar's boyfriend!"

My eyes go over to Skylar and she's just as stun as me, and the rest of the group is.

That's why Jerome didn't come on this trip because he didn't want to be here with Monica while here with Skylar.

"W-what?" Skylar stutters out.

"It started spring break and it never ended, I was going to tell you but I didn't want to hurt you because I know how important he is to you," Sam explains.

Skylar's eyes flashes towards Monica then she leaps from her couch and attempts to go after her, but Jeremy grabs her before she can, "You fucking slut! I am going to punch the shit out of your face for sleeping with my boyfriend, and when I get back I am going to give him a taste of his own medicine. I never trusted you repellent bitch, that's why everyone dislikes and hates you and that's why you don't have any genuine friends because everyone loathes you. After all, you're an arrogant and man-stealing bitch! I don't know why you're here because no one even wants you here you ignorant slut, I hate you so fucking much, and I promise you you are going to pay!"

I get from my couch and walk over to Skylar, soothing her down. Everyone is sitting looking around silent. "Sit down Sky," I tell her, and Jeremy and I sit her down and sit next to her, consoling her.

Sam sitting with her arms crossed infuriated and Monica looking so startled and full of disappointment.

Monica removes a piece of her dirty blonde hair from her face then stands, turns, and walks away towards the stairs.

Everyone is so quiet not knowing what to say while Skylar starts to sob.

"Well things escalated real fast," Riley says opening a can of soda and I roll my eyes this is no time for his jokes.

A few minutes transpired in quietness then a terrifying scream commences coming from upstairs, maturing high and hysterical frightening everyone inside.
