kiss me, again

    "W–we should go."

   Serena opened the bathroom door, and quickly checking both sides to make sure that no one was able to see her exiting out the bathroom. Especially, when Chad was also in there with her, she had easily slipped out the bathroom as quickly as possible with Chad who taken several seconds to slip out the bathroom.

Serena finding her way towards where her friend was sitting at, "What's going on, why'd you call us all over here?" She had worriedly called out.

Anika who had easily pointed her finger to the television before slowly questioning her friend in worrisome, "Hey, you good? You were taking forever in the bathroom." Anika had questioned her friend, and giving her a worried look.

   Serena just nodded her head, "Yeah, yeah."

   It was then that the news had went back up on again and a reporter who was reporting the murders of some people, "Oh, shit. Someone go get Sam!" Anika yelled out.

   Chad easily scrambled outside the apartment, yelling out for Samantha before he had came back inside the apartment, and Sam who was right behind him alongside with the apartment guy, Danny.

"What's going on?" Sam had a worried expression written all over voice, Chad who had just pointed his finger to the screen.

Quinn who just pointed her finger at Danny when she had seen him, "Cute Boy." A smile appearing on her face, "Nice." Eyes going back to the screen.

"I'm standing in front of the apartment building of the mutilated bodies of two college students. . ."

  Everyone's eyes simply remained glued to the television, slightly nervous upon waiting onto what he was going to say next.

   "Have just been released by police. Jason Carvey and Grey Bush. . ."

   Mindy who gasped, easily speaking to her friends, "Holy shit, that's that chode from our film class," Pointing her finger to the screen, "The one obsessed with Argento." She had revealed.

   ". . . Also, found at the scene were various Ghostface costumes, a character popularized by the Stab movie franchise."

Sam who was ultimately getting unsettled from all of this information, "Pack a bag. We leave in ten." Sam specifically told her sister, walking to the kitchen with Tara right behind her.

"Sam, wait." Tara sounded distress, watching her sister beginning to act like a total manic, and wondering what to grab while they go on the run.

Danny who was confused, "Wait, What?"

Chad who quickly turned towards Danny, appearing in front of him, "Thank you, very much suspicious new guy. But, I think we've got it from here." Chad who had just grabbed his shoulders, patting him softly, "Have a goodnight, stay safe. Go, go, go." He shooed him away, closing the door in his face.

Serena who had just watched the scene had to suppress a laugh, but Chad had managed to see that she just wanted to let out a laugh at how he was acting, and playfully rolling his eyes at her.

   The sisters arrived back to the living room, "— This might not have anything to do with us!" Tara frustratedly said.

   "Are you serious?"

   Tara who had frustratedly pointed her hand to the television with everyone watching the argument of the sisters quickly unfolding, "It's a big city. It's Halloween everybody's wearing a mask." Argued back.

   Samantha shook her head, "Tara this isn't a coincidence." She remarked back, "You knew him." She reminded her sister.

   Samantha who scoffed at how ridiculous her sister was acting, eyes quickly glancing at the twins, "Chad and Mindy back me up here." She called out.

   "I mean it is a little bit. . ." Awkwardly began speaking, and mostly 'cause he didn't really like being put in the middle of the sisters arguing, as Mindy finished her twin brothers sentence, "Close to home." She casually said, throwing in more popcorn in her mouth.

Serena who had quickly reached out for some popcorn as well, 'cause honestly this was very interesting to see, yet she was worried for her friends, and also Chad. Especially, because he is back. She received a call not too long.

It was then that Chad just easily spoke up, "I mean not too long ago, Serena had rece—" He began to reveal only to get interrupted.

"Shut-up, Chad!" glaring at him.

Everyone had just ignored their little argument that could possibly began, 'cause this was more important than their argument, and especially if Ghostface is possibly back.

   Tara who turned her head towards Quinn, "Quinn your dads a cop, right? Can you call him, and find out what's going on?" Leaving Tara to quickly glance at her sister, her eyes narrowing at her, "Before you make unilateral decision to abandon my college education, and flee the fucking state!" She sneered angrily.

   Quinn who had nodded her head, pulling her phone out, "Calling him now."

   Tara acknowledging her, "Thank you."

   It has went silent for a moment before the sound of a phone ringing was heard, and just making them all flinch, especially Serena. Sam who had slowly approached the counter table, as everyone remained seated nervously. It was then that Sam picked the phone up, and seen the caller ID, it was just Gale Weathers. She had hit decline.

Ethan who had casually spoken up not understanding why they got scared, "Why did everyone suddenly freak out when her phone rang?" He deadpanned, arms were crossed.

"Do you ever like pay attention?" Serena had just narrowed her eyes at Ethan with Anika adding to the conversation, "You gotta keep up my dude." She practically scoffed.

Just then Quinn came back in and handed her phone to Sam, "— My dad wants to speak to you." Sam nodding her head, as no one was able to hear what was being said on the other line oh the phone, as they had quickly seen Sam handing Quinn her phone back, "I have to go." Quickly rushing out not before she had grabbed her coat, slamming the door shut.

"— I should go with her." Tara yelled out, grabbing her jacket and just leaving everyone in the apartment.

It was silent for a moment.

Serena had slowly had gotten up, "I should go, I have to check up on my cat." She had began getting up from the couch, and walking almost towards the apartment door before pausing, "You coming?" She softly told Chad.

He had nodded his head, ignoring everyone's shocked expression at the scene between the two, 'cause everyone knew that they didn't get along. All while, they had left the apartment.

"When did that happen?" Mindy mumbled out, she was surprised that they were getting along, "Holy shit — our plan worked!" She let out a smirk.

Anika who had given Mindy a fist bump out of excitement, "Now we can have double dates." She had cheered in complete victory that their plan had word.

────────────────────

   "What are you googling?" Chad had slowly asked her, he was standing right beside her as they were both walking on a late chilly October night back to her apartment.

   Serena who had quickly looked at him before glancing down back to her phone screen, "Just trying to see what happened around 1997, or earlier on." Because whatever Ghostface had said to her earlier tonight was still engraved inside of her head.

Chad who worriedly glanced at her, "Have you ever asked your mom, or attempted into taking a DNA test into finding out who possibly can be your dad?" He had slowly asked her.

Serena had easily shook her own head at what he had said 'cause she has done neither of the above (She hasn't even asked her mom, again about her biological father), "I, uhm. No, I haven't." She had suddenly revealed to him, scrolling through all the articles that appeared on her phone, "What if this person is actually right, what if my mom has been lying to me for years?" She glanced up at Chad in worry.

   Chad sighed, "Serena, you shouldn't be out here believing what he says, it could be to rile you up." He said once, again.

   Serena who got frustrated shoved her phone into her back pocket, and forgetting to turn it off, "You don't get it, Chad. All my life my mom has lied to me, and has always been a secretive perso—"

   He interrupted her by pulling her into a kiss that had instantly made her place her hands on his cheeks, as his arms had snaked around her waist, and pulled her closer to him.

   Pulling apart from the kiss, foreheads still pressed against each other, "You were saying?" He softly whispered to her.

   "Shut-up, and kiss me, again." He had pulled her into another kiss, as they had suddenly felt some water droplets hitting them, and that made Serena pull away from the kiss, and her eyes slowly glancing at him, hand caressing his face cheek, "We can go and take this back at my apartment, and you can just spend the night with me that's if you want . . . you know just for safety?" Stumbling with her own words.

Chad who smiled down at her, "Are you trying to get me in bed with you?" He teased her as he had quickly noticed how her cheeks had reddened, "Because, it's working." He let out a goofy smile appear on her face.

Serena had quickly pulled out her phone just so she can quickly check how much more farther they were from her apartment, as her eyes had immediately glanced at a name in an article that she had found interesting, but yet she hadn't really put too much thought into it to even click on it.

This two upcoming chapters should possible
be so much fun to write.

Her arrest at accusations of murders she
hasn't committed and when they bail her out. Though, I may have Gale be the one bailing her out due to Sam asking for help.
