The Girl At His Door [Parts I & II]

Part II. Chapter-25

MERCURYS POV.

I have no idea why people chose the worst times to wake me up.

First, I wake up with a gun aimed at my father.

And now, my phones blasting.

At one in the morning.

"What?" I groaned groggily as I slid the screen to answer it.

Someone's going to be orphaned I swear to-

"Mercury? Mercury where the fuck are you?!" A man screamed into my ear.

Oh it's me. I'm about to be orphaned.

"Angelo I'm at home in bed." I sighed. "What's going-,"

"Stay there. I'll be back soon." He hung up.

I've seen Angelo mad before, but not this type of mad.

What the hell did I do? I've been asleep since eight.

I sighed before throwing my blankets off of me.

Why am I nervous? I know I haven't dont anything.

I turned the light on in my bathroom, turning on the faucet and splashing cold water on my face in an attempt to wake myself up a bit.

I'm definitely going to need it.

I heard the door slam shut downstairs.

"Mercury Lesca! Get your ass down here!"

Oh no.

I mentally prepared myself before leaving my bedroom.

Oh god. Oh god. Oh god.

My nerves were growing as I neared the stairs.

What did I do?

"Angelo, what-,"

"Where the fuck is your necklace?" His dark eyes zeroed in on me.

My necklace? That's what this is about?

"It's right-," I touch my neck expecting to feel the small silver chain.

And it wasn't there.

My eyes widened as I continued to feel around for it.

"Where the hell is it Mercury?" He took a step closer to me, raising his voice slightly.

I don't think I like this Angelo at all.

"I-," I tried my best to formulate a sentence as I thought back to the last time I had it on.

I had it on this morning, and then-

I took a shower.

I quickly ran back up my bedroom and back into my bathroom, hopping that it would still be there on the counter.

And sadly, it was not there.

"Care to explain?" Angelo stood at the door as I looked around for it.

"I-I-," I struggled.

Mercury, how do you manage to screw this up?

I couldn't find it anywhere.
