Fabeth by Cerenberger (black female authors .txt) 📖

summer was. Finally I gave up on that and started kicking the window. Unfortunately being thrown god know how many feet by a piece of wood weakened my kicks. But even in Addie's drunk, shocked state she still seemed to have enough strength that combined with mine was strong enough.


On our sixth or seventh kick the glass broke. The water was up to our chins by now. Quickly I shoved Addie out the window then followed her. On my way out I scraped my leg right arm on the broken glass leaving a huge deep gash along the fore arm. I looked down at my arm but something else caught my attention.


Two malicious yellow eyes staring back at me. I was petrified I couldn't move or scream, I was frozen. Then I was being hauled out of the lake by a paramedic and rushed into the ambulance. The rest of the night past in a blur. The hospital kept me and Addie overnight because we both had concussions and I had some pretty bad hypothermia. I was in the water longer than Addie so I was worse off then her. I also had a fractured left wrist and I still needed stitches for the gash from the widow. Addie fared better than me with only slight hypothermia, a small cut from the window, and a few stitches from the steering wheel when we hit the water.


Another thing I remember from that night is that Mark and Addie both got their licenses suspended for a year for drunk driving.


*****End of Flashback*******


"Liz......Lizzy.....ELIZABETH!" Addie shouted at me and shocking me out of my thoughts about that night "


"What?" I asked giving her an exasperated look " You don't have to yell I'm sitting right next to you"


"Well", she replied haughtily "Apparently I do have to shout since we've been sitting here, at the stadium might I add, for like five minutes "


"If we've been here for five minutes then why didn't you just leave?


"Be.. Because I was trying to be a good friend and was waiting for you" she stuttered I gave her a skeptical look and raised my eyebrow at her "What!" she said defensively, "Is it so hard for you to believe that I would do that" adding mock hurt to her voice.


"Yes, it is extremely hard for me to believe that you would wait for me" I waited for a response from her. Then I figured it out.


"You don't have any money to get into the game do you." It was a statement rather than a question, I was just waiting for her to say so.


"Yeah,"Addie admitted grudgingly "But just to let you know I totally thought I did have money and actually that wasn't the only reason I didn't leave, I also couldn't get the door open."


I looked at her "Seriously you couldn't open the car door? That is pathetic." I stated


"Yeah well" Addie said trying to find a good excuse for not being able to open the door "Let's just go and watch the game."


Laughing I unlocked the doors and we headed to the stadium. The Spartans have been the state championships for three years in a row and now the Regina Regals were threatening our title. Not that I was worried about us loosing we had the best baseball team that we've ever had in over ten years. The stadium was packed when we got there. Heading toward the student section Addie pushed her way to the front. Just as we sat down the Spartans and the Regals ran onto the field. Addie and I jumped to our feet cheering for the Spartans,and for Mark who was the pitcher for the team. Then out came Layton, bumbling about as the Mascot. I felt bad for him but it was the only way he could join the team and he didn't seem to mind much. We sat back down and watched the game.


In the end I was right we did win, but it was pretty close, a lot closer than I would have expected the Regals played excellently but we managed to beat them.


Addie and I started walking out to my car when Layton caught up to us. "Hey Layton great job today" I said cheerfully


"Yeah I guess Mark says to drive up front and meet him there then to drive him to the high school where his truck is. He's gunna take a shower there then meet us at the lake." Said Layton.


"OK are you coming with us or staying with him?" I asked


"Definitely with you I don't want to hear him drone on and on about the game and the cheerleaders there"


"Good choice . Wait, you said that he was going to take a shower at the school right?" Addie questioned


"Yeah why" Layton asked suspiciously


"Oh man, that means that were gunna have to smell him for an hour and a half" Addie groaned. When she said that I started groaning too. I had totally forgotten that. He was going to stink up my car, again. Although at least it wouldn't be as bad as what it smelled like during football season.
Uninvited Guest

We arrived at silver lake at about six. I know what some of you might be thinking, a few months ago Addie and I almost died in that lake and I thought also saw glowing yellow eyes in the lake. So why in the world would we be going there willingly? Well first off, this is the place where we all met nine years ago and became friends so we always come here to hang out and celebrate birthdays, winning championships, and other things. Second of all the place we were going wasn't the place where Addie and I almost drowned. Where we were going was a separate part of Silver Lake, there's a small stream that flows north for about five miles. Then it flow into a small lake, a pond really that's in a clearing surrounded by trees. It was our clearing and not many people know about it. Sou you can imagine my surprise when we finally arrived at OUR clearing and there was someone there, and it wasn't Mark.

"What the hell is she doing here?" Addie groaned

"Wait is that who I think it is?" I asked turning to look at Addie

"Yup, that's Missy alright." Addie replied darkly" How did she even find this place? Did you tell about it Liz?"

I glared at her and said "Oh yeah since were on such good terms especially considering what happened in October. You know when she stole your old ass of a boyfriend and said all those things about you. And to get back at her I shoved her in to her locker."


"Ha ha yeah, I remember that" Addie laughed "It was almost as good as the time when I cut the bottom out of Missy's cheerleading skirt, so when she was doing flips you could see her underwear."

"Yeah that was awesome especially when I turned on the sprinklers and dyed the water a reddish/orange color, The entire team was drenched and they were running around screaming Bloody Murder. Best Halloween ever!"

"I don't get why you guys do those kinds of things to Missy and her friends" Layton stated matter-of-factly


"Because she makes it her goal to make ours and basically everybody else's life a living hell" Addie shot back angrily

"And she's a bitch" I said boredly, as you can probably guess we've had this conversation before too.

"And she's a bitch" Addie repeated with more conviction than I had.

"Oh come on she can't be that bad "Layton tried to reason with us

"WHAT? WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON" Addie screamed at Layton as she lunged herself at him from the front seat. Then came a series of high pitch screaming as Addie tried to strangle Layton. I debated with myself whether I should do something or just let them at it.

Addie screamed "I'll kill you."

And Layton's terrified "I'm sorry ,I'm sorry. Liz please save me she's lost it." brought me back to what was happening.

"Layton, don't be stupid. She can"t loose something she never had" I joked "Addie don't you think he's suffered long enough?"

"NO" She shouted and went back to strangling him.

This was soon followed by Layton's girlish screams "Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahhhhhhh"

"LAYTON! Will you SHUT UP!" I exclaimed. Addie stopped strangling Layton and he stopped screaming. Let's just go and see what she wants.


"Do we have to? I mean can't we just, you know shove her in the lake and leave?" Addie suggested hopefully.

"No, Adds, that would be called murder. Besides with my luck I'll be the only one who gets blamed for it."

"I'm good with that. What about you Layton?" Addie asked

"Layton, I swear to god if you say yes then your life as you know it will be over. And there won't be anyone to save you" I threatened. Layton looked back and forth between Addie and I debating who's side to take.


"Let's just go see what she wants" Layton said as he got out of the backseat of my car. I grinned and stuck my tongue out at Addie before getting out of the car and following Layton. Addie followed me out grumbling something about pushing Layton and me into the pond with Missy. As we approached Missy I coldn't help considering Addie's idea of pushing her in the pond. But quickly dismissed it. Great now Addie's got me considering murder, I need new friends.

"Well, Well, Well. If it isn't Abbie and her two freak groupies," She sneared at Addie in that shreakingly annoying voice of her's.

"It's Addie. And at least I have friends," She shot back.

Missy laughed curtly "Oh, please. I have more friends then you pathetic losers can count."

I snorted, "Missy in order for you to be able to say and know that you have to be able to count. And well, we all know that you can't do that."

Missy gasped like that was the most hurtful thing that anyone had said to her. It wasn't though, trust me I would know.

"Oh, suck it up Blondie, there'll be plenty more where that came from." Addie said disgustedly, because of Missy's reaction. And as if on cue that's when Mark arrived at the clearing. That's when the water works started.
