After thinking and thinking — you decided it'd be best if you'd leave. but you couldn't just leave, you had Sam, Chad, Tara, and Mindy here. Including Ethan.

"Shit, (Y/n) you didn't get on the train with Chad either?" You jumped at the sound of the voice, "oh! sorry, my bad. are you..okay?" It was mindy.

You placed a hand over your chest, and nodded, "Yeah, I'm okay. Just a little out of it." you replied.

"You're getting on the next train, right?" Mindy asked, "Mhm. yeah, I- I am." you answered. Mindy placed a arm around your shoulders and rubbed your shoulder comfortingly.

That's when you felt someone touch your shoulder, this time it wasn't Mindy. you let out a little scream and turned around, you sighed in relief when you noticed it was Ethan.

"Get you're ghostface ass outta our face. Ghostface." She said, dragging you away from Ethan.

That was a bit rude, "hey, don't you think that was rude?" you said, trying to get out of Mindy's grasp.

"No. he's making the signs pretty clear, and he's around you 24/7. It's creeping me out and I don't know why you aren't bothered by it." Mindy stated.

"He's not ghostface, Mindy. And I don't need you or anyone else coming to my rescue all the time. I can take care of myself. I'm the same age everyone else is. I'm not a child. And adding to that: he's an awesome guy." You said, but then paused after realizing what you said.

"Rephrase that, did you just say; 'awesome guy'? please don't tell me you're falling for him." Mindy said, you didn't reply and moved your feet around awkwardly.

Mindy eyes widened, "my god, you're falling for him. someone you just met? he could probably actually be ghostface! Fuck that, he is! you don't know what he's capable of, (Y/n)."

"And you do? you can't always go with your theories, Mindy. If I like a guy, I like a guy. And that's who I like. If you have a problem with it, oh well. But I really like him. Please be supportive of this just this once, please?" you asked, Mindy sighed and looked over at Ethan who was already looking at the two of you.

Mindy raised her hands obviously annoyed, shooing him away, "look away. nosy ass." she muttered under her breath.

Then she turned back to you, "fine. but I swear if he is ghostface I will not hesitate to tell you I told you so. alright?" Mindy replied.

"Okay. yeah, yeah." You said with a smile and made your way inside the next train.

Mindy leaned against the train doors which were already closed, you looked down at your phone, you still haven't gotten any messages from your father. you just hoped he was okay.

Someone knocked your phone down to the ground, "hey!" you exclaimed but then looked up and saw a ghostface mask appear in front of you.

This time you held a straight face, whoever it was under that mask needed a punch in the face.

"Get the fuck back." you said, the person stepped back with their hands raised in surrender.

You moved somewhere else to have more space, you hated the trains in New York.

That's when you locked eyes with Ethan, he gave you a little wave and smiled. He was a dork but that's why you liked him.

You looked away and saw another person with a ghostface mask, seriously, did they think this was funny?

Your hands started shaking in fear — where was that confidence you had a few moments ago? it didn't matter honestly, you made your way over to Ethan and stood close to him.

For some reason you just felt safe around him. he felt like a safe place.

"You okay?" Ethan asked, you nodded and eyed everyone on the train. Ethan pulled you close to him just in case if anything happened.

Once the train came to the stop, it started clearing when everyone was getting off the train.

"Mindy? Mindy!" You yelled, you noticed she was on the ground and clutching her stomach, "shit, what happened?" you asked.

She couldn't answer since she was in pain, "help me." you told Ethan, he did as you asked and helped Mindy up.

After getting off the train you grabbed your phone from out of your pocket and started dialing 911.

"Ah, fuck." Mindy cursed under her breath, you applied pressure to the wound and stayed on the phone with the 911 operator.

U: see you soon, (Y/n)

After receiving the text you turned to Ethan, he was already looking at you. Mindy was wrong, he wasn't ghostface. of course not.

But whoever this was texting you? seems like they had a obsession with you. there's literally 99+ text from them.

You really were their main target.
