BLOOD IN THE WATER
009. | " you killed the one person I actually loved and cared about "

James Prescott chased after Raven who opened the bell tower and ran inside, " where is she?! " Raven turned to face James.

" I have no idea " James climbed up the ladder seeing nobody up the stairs, " she's not up here either! " James leaned his head over the ledge.

" we have to find her! " Raven fiddled with the bracelet on their wrist that was given to them by their sister, " over there! " James pointed out.

As the two of them ran outside of the bell tower James suddenly stopped when a ghost face ran by and slowed down when they saw him.

Raven continued running to find their sister thinking James was still following behind them,
James kept a stare on the ghost face not taking his eyes off for a second.

" who are you? " James nodded his head towards the ghost face as the ghost face kept staring at him as if it were trying to figure out what to say.

" how did you get back? " The voice talked to him as he suddenly realized who the voice belonged to, " Cassie " James's got angry the moment he finally found the person he was after.

" Prescott I can explain " Cassie took the mask off as she accepted defeat when he found out who she was under the mask, " you did it " James began to speak as he got more angry.

" you murdered her didn't you?! " James's heart broke as he thought about Alice's helpless body he held before she died.

" Who? " Cassie tried to act like she didn't know who he was talking about all though she knew exactly who he was talking about.

" you killed the one person I actually loved and cared about " James's was fighting back the tears as Cassie stared off in the distance before turning back to face the brunette boy.

" you know I did it for a reason " Cassie spoke as James pushed some of his hair back furious, " what was your reason? " James back talked her as Cassie got triggered more.

" she wouldn't have done anything like this to you Cassie! " James yelled at the blonde who rolled her eyes almost as made eye contact with him once again, " I know " Cassie sighed.

" but she wouldn't leave Thomas alone " Cassie shrugged her shoulders with that nasty smirk again on her face.

" you killed him " James looked down at Cassie's hand as he saw her begin to take her knife out, " yeah I know " Cassie chuckled as she wiped blood off of her knife keeping a stare on him.

" better run Prescott " Cassie motioned for him to start running with her knife but James stayed standing where he was not afraid of her at all.

" just know you ruined my life " James ducked when a sudden knife flew at him from the side when he saw nothing there he looked over his shoulder and was thrown backwards by Cassie.

Riley stood with Rhianna standing next to him behind a cabin as Rhianna held into his hand scared after being chased by a ghost face.

" it's okay.. " Riley whispered to her as they realized nobody was around, they took it as an opportunity to start walking to the main hall.

They walked inside the main hall as the two sat down against the doors that were closed, " we'll be safe here " Riley turned to face her.

" promise? " Rhianna looked over as she was still scared to even move, " I promise " He quickly kissed her

suddenly a few seconds later he saw the shadow of a ghost face through the window of the main hall doors.

" Riley " Rhianna stared as the ghost face began trying to open the doors of the place, " just calm down " Riley said in a calm tone.

The ghost face was acting different tho, like this ghost face didn't seem like it was trying to scare them or kill them.

This ghost face pointed down at the door as if it were scared and begging for them to open the door for them, " what the..? " Riley began getting up to go over to the doors.

" Riley please " Rhianna didn't trust the strange ways the ghost face was acting and begged for him not to go open the door.

The ghost face kept pointing at the door and trying to open it at different times, Riley opened the door ready for what the ghost face was about to do.

The ghost face ran inside but instead of attacking them the ghost face walked over and sat down against the wall across from them.

" who are you! " Rhianna yelled from across the room when the mask was ripped off of their head revealing James Prescott.

" James what the hell! " Riley yelled as James held his side staring at the two of them, " that was a cute little moment " James teased the two as he saw them kiss earlier.

" shut up, why the hell are you wearing a ghost face outfit! " Riley stood staring down as the brunette held his side in pain but Riley didn't seem to notice it.

" stole it from Cassie " James smiled as Riley gasped, " so the other dude thought you were Cassie? " Riley looked back at Rhianna.

" yeah pretty much " James laughed as he watched as Riley sat down against the wall next to Rhianna and held onto her hand again.

James didn't even realize he was staring until Rhianna spoke out loud, " James you ok? " Rhianna had a sweet voice as she was concerned for the brunette.

" oh yeah I'm fine " " Raven's looking for you " James spoke as all he could think about when he saw Rhianna and Rikey was him and Alice.

James Prescott ran as fast as he could to the Cooper's house as he got his car taken away from his parents a few weeks ago.

He arrived at the light blue brick house as he knocked on the door in a panic that he couldn't leave her alone here on Valentines Day

" James? " Alice opened the door as the brunette smiled at her, " surprise " he handed her a small box that was a navy blue.

" did you really run all the way here? " Alice looked up slightly as she opened the box that revealed a crescent moon necklace.

" yes I did " James was still a little out of breath as Alice gasped at the necklace she placed in her hand, " Prescott you didn't " she smiled upwards.

" your welcome " he smiled as she wrapped her arms around him giving him a huge hug as she let him inside of the house.

" hi Mrs Cooper " he waved as he already knew her parents hated him more then anything in this world, and the thought of them being together made them hate him even more.

The two of them sat upstairs on the couch in her room as she had put the necklace around her neck, all he could do was admire her.

" what? " Alice laughed as he pretended to look away and back at her a second time, " nothing " James chuckled under his breath.

" mhm sure " Alice fiddled with her fingers as James whispered to her, " you are very beautiful "
James smiled as he noticed her blush.

" shut up " Alice pushed his face away lightly as he looked back at her offended as she laughed, her laugh was everything to him.

She was everything to him, he just wanted to be like this forever and ever. But clearly camp decided to change everything for them. For him.

He leaned in as she giggled a bit before locking lips with him, James loved Alice more then anything in the world nothing could change that.
-

Until a few weeks before camp the two got into a huge argument, " I never did that! " James yelled as Alice began walking out the door of his room.

" I don't care James! " Alice walked down the stairs as James followed quickly after her, " no please don't leave! " James pulled her in for a hug before she pushed him away from her.

" just leave me alone! " Alice began taking the crescent moon off of her neck and James's heart completely shattered when he noticed.

" Alice.. " James watched as she turned around and opened his hand placing it onto the palm of it as her eyes watered as well.

" I'm sorry.. " " I'll see you at camp.. " Alice turned back around when started crying a lot walking out of his house.

James wanted to follow after her and comfort her but he didn't wanna be in her space anymore, even tho he just wanted to hug her and be there.
