Chapter 1: It was supposed to be fun time

We were all in Candy's room after school getting ready for night party.

"What you said to Mason?" Bella asked painting Candy's nail.

Candy gave attention towards us. "Sleepover with girls." She nodded.

"So, you saw the dresses." I asked and they both smirked while looking towards each other and answered in union. "We love them." I gave them smile and started to pack my bag after completing home work.

"These masks are very beautiful." Candy exclaimed in happiness. Bella grinned and nodded at same time.

The mask was navy blue with navy blue soft lace was attached of upper side of it, which was giving it more mysterious look yet maintained to look glamorous.

"Put a bit just." Cadence forced me again to wear make up. I told them many time to not force me for this ever.Yet our dear Candy chose to do

so.

"No way, I told you guys, right?" I calmly stated."Leave her, Candy." Bella scolded her a little.

"Fine."Candy replied with annoyed look.

And started to do her make up. As Bella started to straight my wavy hairs.

After an hour and 30 minutes we finally done.

And it was worth the time because the girls were looking extremely stunning.

We all chose to wear masketeer's dress. The dress was sleeveless white in color and reached till our mid thighs. And had mid navy blue lace jacket. That was giving the dress more stunning look.

"You both are looking extremely hot." I cheered and both girls gave me lovely smiles.

"You're all looking breathtakingly stunning." Bella said putting her ankle length white heels.

Candy chose to wear nude heels and I was wearing navy blue knees length boots.

Candy smirked and added

"You are going to kill the boys tonight."

I laughed a little. "With my beauty or the beast."

"Of course with the beast." She giggled.

"Girls, let's go now." Bella said. I took my phone and dragged Candy towards door from who was standing in front of mirror god knows since when.

The drive from Candy's home to White's was just 5 minutes.

I felt weird deep in my stomach. I was not liking the idea of me being here but what can I do, with my mind I just could do nothing.

After putting our masks we got out of car and walked towards the Mansion sized home of White's.

When we entered inside the home, the lights were dim with disco colors.

People with covered full faces or half were dancing on dance floor and in front of dance floor was bar kind area. Some were sitting on stools next to var island. Some girls gave us weird looks and guys were giving flirty looks.

"I knew White's were rich but I didn't know that they are this rich." Bella whispered next to me. I nodded in agreement. Then a guy with Blond hairs in

"Let's go to dance floor." Candy boomed. I glanced at her.

"Geez, Candy don't shrink in my ear the least." Bella said in irritation.

"Okay party poopers." She scowled and walked towards dance floor alone. "She is party animal." Bella utter. "And now she is angry with us." I sighed and said.

"Should I go to see her?" Bella anxiously asked. Music was blasting loudly.

We were sitting on stools face dance floor, looking over Candy. But she hadn't been in sight since last 20 minutes. I was getting worried too. But we both knew Candy, she must be dancing just still.

I felt knots in my stomach. Music was blasting loudly and my heart started to feel like dropping. I just nodded and saw Bella getting lost in crowd. I was sitting alone now.

I took another sip of my drink. My skin was feeling burnt. 'What is happening?' I started to look around and my eyes fell on dark haired guy. His face was covered with shinny black mask. His mask was reflecting lights. For some strange reasons he was looking familiar. The music was blasting so loudly and now my pulse rate started to increase.

I took a breath as I felt sharp pain in my head. My vision started to get blurry. "Oh no, what is happening?" I heard a voice from far which was sounding very familiar and my head was feeling heavy.

"Bella!!!!" Candy screamed. My body was started to feel light. I started to breath heavily. I could only hear the loud music now I was feeling to being drawn towards ground.

A pair of arms wrapped around me, giving me support. Then I felt something wet near my lips.

I blinked my eyes many times and got some senses.

Bella was holding glass and making me drink it gently. The liquid gave some warmness to my mouth and throat.

Cadence shook me slightly. My vision started to get clear. I started to breath heavily again and again.

"Hey, it's fine , we are here." Bella rubbed my arms. "I'm so sorry Mia." Candy cried on my shoulder. "I didn't want this to happen." I just nodded and gave her small smile which was beyond than real.

Cadence hugged me tightly from back. I rubbed her arms in comforting gesture.

"We should go home." Bella suggested. I shook my head in no. "We came here to do something remember?" Bella shrugged.

"But you're not fine, Mia." Candy whined. "Hey, stop it, I'm fine plus I have you girls with me." I smiled and this time for real.

They sighed and nodded in union. They knew that I'm very stubborn.

"Come on everyone, this is time for tonight truth and dare." A male voice blasted from speakers. Everyone started to cheer. And making their way towards the door that opened into a big living area.

"This is perfect time to do for what we are here." Bella whispered. I and Candy nodded in agreement.

___________

"The door is locked." Candy whispered yell. I groaned and Bella sighed in frustration.

We had been locked in an unknown room since 35 min now. The room was decent with a bed in middle and two couches in font of bed. At the left side of bed was a big window. And soft green colored curtains were hanging on window.

Bella was sitting on floor next to bed with me. Candy was standing facing us, her back was supported with door.

35 minutes before....

"This is perfect time to do for what we are here." Bella whispered.

We made our way towards stairs. People were too drunk to notice anything plus they were pretty busy with that game of the night.

Sooner we were in front of  a large door. Couple of people was passing by the hallway giving us weird looks.

Candy opened the door and we rushed inside. But what we saw in front of us was dreadful.

There were 3 guys were sitting facing opposite from the door. 'Thank god they can't see us." I mentally thought.

Bella poked me in stomach and when I looked towards her, I saw there was another door attached to this room or whatever it is. And Candy was already standing inside the room.

One of the guy was looking like the one I noticed earlier in evening. One guy with blonde got up from his seat. Before I made any run backward. Bella pulled me towards attached room.

"You heard that voice?" One of them spoke. "Yes, I guess someone is in, the door is opened." I assumed this voice belonged to the blonde guy.

Candy pulled both of us towards closet and closed its door. We all were holding our breaths. 'What the hell we get ourselves into?' I shuddered at the bad thought. Candy was holding the same expressions as mine whereas Bella was looking kind of guilty. 'Oh god no.' I squeezed her hand twice and her body relaxed. We heard footsteps coming towards closet.

"Nobody's here." A guy yelled his voice was sounding very familiar and with that I felt another sharp pain in my head.

After a while the door being closed with a click. I started to breath fast.

I had claustrophobia. Bella rubbed my back. Candy opened the door and run towards room door.

And we both walked after her. "Shit, the is locked." Candy groaned in frustration as struggling with the door knob.

"Don't do this, wait a while." Bella rushed towards her side and said.

Candy started to breath fast too.

"Hey." I hugged her and then Bella joined the hug too.

Present time....

"What time it is?" Candy asked sitting next to us. "12:24" Bella muttered.

I hugged my knees close to me. Breath in, Breath out. I had been doing this since last 20 minutes.

Candy laid on bed and started to sleep. Bella was trying to call but there was no network. I on other hand looking out of window for something.

I heard a click and door broad open. I quickly rushed towards Bella as she got up. I had a bad feeling.

There was a standing a man looking older than us probably around 24.

"What are you doing here?" He inquired while moving his gaze from Bella to Me.

"W-we..." Bella stuttered under his gaze. I hold her hand firmly.

"We were looking for washroom and get lost." I stated. He shifted his eyes on me. And looked straight in mine brown eyes. His face was still covered with a black mask.

His hazel eyes looking misty. He was giving me bad vibes. He nodded looking unsure.

"Well I can drop you girls, it is late." He remarked. I was taken a back with surprise. He surly noticed. And added, "If you want." I nodded. Meanwhile Bella awoke Candy. "Well we have our car." I replied.

"So, my driver will go with you." He acknowledged. I looked at them as asking them 'whether to go with him or not'. Bella shrugged and Candy just nodded.

"Whose car is that?" He asked. "Cadence." Bella replied pointing towards her. He nodded in respond. "So she can go with me driver. And I can drop both of you."

"Why would we leave her alone in this condition with your driver." I exclaimed suddenly. "And why at the first place we will go with you. I'm pretty sure, we can handle ourselves very well. So if you excuse us." I didn't want to say this dang my big mouth, but also I was having bad vibes, huff.

He was taken a back by my sudden out burst. His lips tugged into a mischievous smirk. I gave him an annoying look.

"You are looking younger than senior in high school. He smirked again. "So what?" I stated as matter of fact.

"So, I guess this is not your last year of school?" I eyed him. 'He is too good looking to be dumb but what can we do.' I thought. "None of your business." I snapped.

He laughed humorlessly. Bloody Idiot. "Well, the thing I know that my sister just invited seniors." 'Oops. His sister. Means he is....'

As he read my mind. "Yes, I'm Elder White." He fake smiled. "They call me Hunter White." I snorted. 'Good good, great way to reply, snort.'

"Well, you can stay if you want. Otherwise I will drop you. Choice is yours." He said.

"W-wha-what?" Bella stuttered again.

"I wanna go homeeeeeeeee." Candy sung looking tipsy.

"Come on, little girl." He uttered in a sweet tone. "Mia, I think we should go with him otherwise he won't let us go." Bella anxiously whispered but loud enough to heard that guy.

"So Mia, dear?" I gave him a dirty look and he laughed again.

"I am not going with him." I whined. "So I'll drop her." He pointed towards Bella who is completely pale now. "I-i..." She stammered.

I groaned. "Fine, you go with Candy. Text me when you reached, okay?" She just nodded and gave me a guilty look. I just squeezed her hand and smile little.

They both went out of room followed by Hunter's Driver. "Shall we?" He asked. "I don't want to but whatsoever." I rolled my eyes.

_______________

"Why are you driving so slow?" I exclaimed. "I like to drive slow." I groaned at his reply.

"For god sake stop the car." He stopped. "What happened dear?"

"Open the lock, I want to walk by myself." He did as I said. I quickly hop out of car.

"Wait." He yelled as I was walking fast. He run towards me. And pulled me from wrist.

"What the hell is wrong with you, Hunter." I shouted.  "Relax, I won't bite."

"But I'll." I sneered.  He pulled me close. "Leave my hand." I looked fearlessly in his eyes. "And get the hell away from me." I snapped. He left my hand and get away from me. Now m heart was pounding fast due to aggressiveness.

"Get in car, I'll drop you." I shook my head in no. "I'm going to call my brother just go." I dialed Mason number. Hunter stared at me.

Mason attended phone after 3rd bell.

"What happened baby girl?" He mumbled. "Come and pick me up, I'm near Candy's home." I demanded. "On way." I cut phone.

"Done checking me out" I annoying stated. He had playful smirked on his lips. "You have hot legs." I gave him death glare.

He went back and sat in car. I just looked in space. After 10 minutes I spotted Mason car. I rushed towards it. I peeked over my shoulder and saw him drive away.
