The Skye is Falling (Part 2) (Chapter 2)

The next day, Skye told her friends that right after school, she was going to hang out with Dom at a cafe. So Madeline and Lizzie decided to stop by Skye's place while she was gone. The two girls went to Madeline's house first then the two got into Madeline's car, which she drove. They entered the apartment building in which Skye resided and knocked on the door labeled "A". Skye's mother, a young, dark-haired, frail woman, opened the door.
"Hi, Madeline and Lizzie," she said in her soft voice. "What are you two doing here? Skye didn't come home yet."
"Oh, yeah, we know," said Madeline, nodding. "She said that she was going to spend time with her boyfriend, Dom."
Skye's mother scoffed. "Figures. Well, come in."
The girls stepped in, entering the living room.
"I don't know when Skye is going to come back." Her mother closed the door and locked it. "She's been really a monster lately."
"Aw," uttered Lizzie, "what did she do?"
"She's just being a brat, which should be normal for a teenage girl, but not for Skye."
"Yeah, she's been a real... you know," said Madeline. "We're just here to pick up some notes so we won't be here long."
"Okay. Well, then, help yourself."
"Thank you, Mrs. Carter."
"It's 'Miss'."
"Sorry, Miss."
Madeline and Lizzie entered the short hallway then made their way into Skye's open bedroom. Madeline closed the door before rummaging through the stacks of CDs on Skye's dresser.
"What are you doing?" asked Lizzie.
"You know what I'm doing," said Madeline, knocking over CD cases. "I'm looking for clues."
"You should've let me bring my magnifying class."
"I don't think so, Lizzie." Madeline picked up a few CDs and showed them to her friend. "Look at these; these are not what Skye usually listens to."
"What does she listen to?"
"You know, punk music, alternative rock, stupid stuff like that. But these are different." Madeline went through the CDs in her hands while reading the names of the bands. "Goatwhore? Cannabis Corpse? Hate Eternal?"
"Stabbing Westward? Why-- Why are they stabbing in a westward direction?"
"I don't know. Because that's where all the cannabis is?"
"These bands look horrifying. Should we listen to them?"
"And bleed through our ears? I don't think so."
"Skye's taste of music is not the only thing that changed. Look at those posters."
Madeline looked at the wall across from her and took a glimpse of the posters taped on it. Some of them were horror film related.
"Who's that over there?" Lizzie pointed to the left.
Madeline looked at the WWE poster of an angry, sweaty man in a white wifebeater. "I don't know," she answered. "But he definitely looks intimidating."
"This whole room is intimidating. It's giving me chills. I'm so itchy." Lizzie began scratching her arms.
Madeline put the CDs back and held Lizzie's arms. "Calm down. We can fix this."
"You mean redecorate?"
"No! I mean we can try to solve this problem before things get out of hand."
The girls began to hear muffled talking outside of the door. It sounded like some people were approaching the door as their voices grew louder and clearer.
"I can't believe my mom's is taking a break today," said Skye's voice.
"That's alright," said Dom's voice. "We can lock the door in your room and just chill in private."
"You're such a tomcat."
The girls began panicking.
"She's coming! She's coming!" warned Madeline.
"We got to act natural," said Lizzie.
The girls looked everywhere in the room until their eyes stopped on the bed, which was covered in a blanket with a spiderweb designed on it. They both jumped on the bed and sat down at the edge. Lizzie did a stiff pose as if she was trying to be a mannequin. Madeline notices that and smacks Lizzie on the leg so she could relax. The girls sat still until Skye opened the door. She walked in with Dom, confusion drawn all over her face.
"Uh, what are you two doing here?" Skye questioned.
"Oh, we just came here to see if you had any science notes for Lizzie to use," Madeline answered.
"Why didn't you just lend her your notes?"
"She can't understand them."
"Madeline writes in a smart language," Lizzie grinned.
"Okay," Skye said. "Well, I don't think I have any 'science notes' lying around. I might have some in my bookbag." She took off her bag and opened it up.
Dom put his hand on his girl's shoulder. "How are you gonna get anything when you're right under me?" he asked. Instantly, he picked up Skye, making her drop her bag, and plopped her on the bed beside the girls. He crawled on top of her and started kissing her neck.
Skye giggled. "You're such a tomcat."
Dom went from her neck to her lips and the couple started making out fiercely. Madeline and Lizzie uncomfortably watched them. Unable to handle it, Lizzie got up.
"Yeah, I don't need the notes anymore," she said before leaving the room.
Madeline tried to look away from the couple but it was hard for her to not look. She cleared her throat loudly multiple times until the couple stopped and looked at her.
"Hi," Madeline said. "Um, you do know you have company, don't you?"
"Oh, right," Dom said. "We're being rude."
"Thank you."
"Let's have a threesome. Right now."
Madeline made a face of disgust. "I'm not into three-anything!" she said, getting up then leaving.
Dom looked at Skye and smiled at her like a Cheshire cat.
"You are so gross," Skye said with a giggle.
"Eh."
The two continued to make out like animals on the bed.
