Chapter #34Go Big or Go Home by: rugal b.   You drive into the parking lot and glance at your phone's directions again. "Is this really where they wanted to meet at? A storage facility?" You parked your Toyota and got out to look around. Only a few cars here and you couldn't spot any recognizable ones that belonged to any of your friends.
You check your phone again to make sure the text from Jessica was correct.
Hurry its at Top Shelf Storage you need to come see this!!!
You look up from your phone to read the sign from out front on the building. "Top Shelf". Yup this is it.
hey im here now
You send the message to Jessica and contemplate why you decided to come. Your boyfriend's older brother's frat was throwing a house party tonight and you wanted to show up early there. However, you then got a message from Jessica Garner around 6:30 telling you of this get together with her, her sister, and some of the other cheerleaders on her team, and she really wanted you to come.
You came because it was a chance for you to branch out and meet some more friends at Westside. Heck, you've been at the school for a year now and you still don't know everyone in your grade. Thats why you decided to come, so you can branch out and not always have to rely on Becky, Elisabeth, Amy, and your other friends from across town who were still at Eastside High. You would only be at Westside for this last year but it was better then being practically friendless for Senior year.
As you stood in the middle of the parking lot in the dimming light of the day you could feel a chilly wind run up you causing goosebumps to go up your arms. You cursed yourself for wearing denim shorts out here, as your practically bare legs felt like they were freezing. You had wished Michael could have came out too but Jessica said: No guys or boyfriends just girls getting together tonight.
You were about to send off another text to Jessica when a door opened and Jessica herself came out of the building waving you in. You waved back then slipped your cell phone into your small purse and headed for the door. As you clicked across the parking lot in your boots towards her you couldn't help but think she looked different, almost like she was really tired. But as you got closer you realized she just wasn't wearing any makeup. Odd since you've never seen her without it before.
"Hey forgot to tell you in class today but that's a really cute new top, did you get it at Forever 21?" you ask as you give her a small hug.
"Huh. Oh um yeah I got it there. Hey um nice bag." she says pointing at your black Kate Spade purse.
"You've never seen it before? I've had it for a while. I could of swore I told you I got it at Nordstrom, in Science Lab."
"Oh hmmhmm silly me I must have forgot! But like never mind that, you need to come see this!" she says lightly grabbing your arm and ushering you into the building.
You don't know why but she's acting kind of strange today. Ever since you buddied up in Science lab together you and Jessica have been good acquaintances. You always knew her as the prim and proper cheerleader who matched you in many interests as well as dress, but right now she was basically galloping down the halls in her sandal wedges with you in tow.
"Wait are you guys smoking pot in here? Because I'm down for you guys doing it but its not really my thing, with track and all."
You say trying to get your mind off how strange she's suddenly acting. But before she answers you both turn a corner and see her sister Eva, Maria, and Chelsea are all standing in the hallways looking in your direction.
"She's here!" Jessica beams loudly as you turn the corner.
"Hey everyone." you say giving a friendly smile and wave to them all.
They all respond but not in their typical ways. And stranger still is the fact that not one of them is wearing make-up, giving the crowd of cheerleaders all a worn look.
"Hey so what's this all about? I heard this is like your go-to place for hanging."
They all look at each other before Maria clears her throat speaks out.
"Yeah, Top Shelf is always the place we come to chill after school.

Suddenly hearing the name "Top Shelf" finally re-jogs your memory, you knew it sounded familiar!
It was in passing today when that one boy showed up at your locker. He was a scrawny thing about your height, with hair like straw, and a goofy smile. When you had turned around he momentarily glanced at your cleavage before darting his eyes up at you. He was blabbing about something with videos and cheerleaders and youtube.You had only raised an eye-brow trying to give him a hint you were uninterested, and yet he just continued talking about "Top Shelf" and someone named "Carlos" and who knows what else. He was practically foaming at the mouth with saliva when he stopped talking and people were glancing in your direction as they walked by.
"I know you." you had told him when he finally stopped talking.
"You were the guy that crashed my house party the other night."
He suddenly stiffens and looks nervous.
"Oh ..I .. I actually got invited there by Stephanie Wyatt and …" you cut him off.
"Hmmm thats funny because I actually talked with Stephanie that night and she said you showed up uninvited."
He stopped dead in his tracks and looked around mumbling something. His eyes momentarily darted back up at your cleavage for a second, but you decided to lay into him.
"You know you're really creepy!" you said loudly for others to hear as you walked away with your books. Sure, it was a mean jab but you just didn't want to have to deal with those types of people, the losers of the school that is.

Thinking back at it now, with you standing here in the storage unit, it did seem kinda mean, but then again he did show up at your place uninvited.
But what was his name again? Stephanie had told you, "Wade Prescott? Wren Prescott? Walt Prescott?" Eh it doesn't matter now.
But as you look over the uncanny cheerleaders one more time, a weird feeling spikes the small hairs on the back of your neck up. And you feel a sudden groan in your stomach as you turn to leave.
"Hey so it was nice meeting up with you all but I…." you say, as something out of the corner of your eyes flashes white, and you black out……
********
You slowly open your eyelids as you recall that memory.
"Eh, what the hell happened?" you think
Suddenly you realize the coldness of the floor on your bare flesh beneath you and dart your head up. You look down at your body to see that you are completely naked! You then curl into a ball on your side covering your breasts with your arms and legs.
"Oh my God, was I raped!?" you think as you horrifically press a hand against your labia checking for any damage trying to hold back any tears.
"Wait a second…" you suddenly think, "That boy today….in the hall….his name was Will ….Will Prescott…and Will Prescott used a mask to become… No… I'm actually Will Prescott... and I'm in the body of Catherine Muskov!"  You have the following choice: 1. Continue |
