Chapter 2: Motorcycle Accident

"Why does school have to be so boring?! Ugh! Just a few more minutes until we are free!" I joked to Lexie looking down at my purple watch.

"Haha yeah right! More like an hour hun." Lexie told me. Really, she must be joking, crap.... I forgot to change my clock back an hour. Of course day light savings time had to be today. I slowly drifted off into my own thoughts. Jayden had given me his number. Jayden Dallas! He was so cute! His smile is gorgeous. Snap out of it Lennie you're in science.

Nope i had to know. What did the texts say? Hmmm....

Coming back to earth i look around the science lab for my old beat up brown leather messenger bag.

I got off of my stool and saw it in the corner with everyone else's bags. Why didn't i keep my phone in my pocket like a normal person? I cautiously reached for my bag and pulled it closer to me. I leaned down to pick up when my teacher Mr. Daily spoke up. "Miss Brooks? What are you doing out of your seat?"

Crap!

"Umm.. Getting my bag." I replied slowly.

"May i ask why?" Mr Daily asked snottily.

Ugh! Why me?

"I was getting a pen."

"Ok but you do know that we're doing a science experiment with water and we aren't writing?" He asked matter-of-factly.

Great one smarty i thought to myself.

"Oh right." I replied sheepishly. I grabbed my iPhone 4S from my bag and hurried back to my seat.

I looked up to make sure Mr Daily wasn't watching me. Nope, he was too busy helping Jake and Kate with their experiment.

"Whatcha doin?" I heard Lexie ask. Oh gosh. I looked up from my phone slowly. Lexie was standing right in front of me.

"Oh god you scared me." I said.

"Haha why? Goodie goodie?" Lexie replied laughing at me.

"Thanks. I just don't like getting in trouble. I am not a goodie goodie."

Im really not a goodie goodie or teacher's pet. I just don't like getting caught. I pulled out my phone and clicked on my messages. Two unread text messages. I smiled and pushed my finger on the screen waiting for them to load. When they finally did i clicked on Jayden's conversation and read.

'Oh ok just makin sure ;)'

'Goodnite. Sleep tight. :)'

Oh my gosh, a goodnight text! Awww! That's so cute! Wow im a dork. DING!! I literally jumped out of my seat at the sound of the bell. Yep, im definitely a dork.

As i parked my car in our driveway i think about Max. Yay! I entirely forgot he was still here. Wow im a great sister.

I ran inside. The entire house was spotless. Yes! I love him!

"Max?!" I yell throughout the whole house, calling him like a dog.

"Max?!" I yell again. Weird. The front door was unlocked but he's not home. He probably just forgot to lock the door.

I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a Diet Pepsi and some frozen grapes from the freezer. I closed the fridge and freezer and walked upstairs to my room. I turned on the TV and started scrolling through channels. It was a little stuffy in my room so i opened my curtain and window. Before sitting back down i looked into Jayden's empty room. I sat down on the couch in my room and kept scrolling through channels and popping cold grapes into my mouth. Spongebob.. No... Four Weddings... No.... Switched at Birth.... No. I kept scrolling through the channels.

"And four for you Glen Coco. You go Glen Coco. And none for Gretchen Weiners. Bye." I start cracking up. Since that was my favorite part of Mean Girls i decide to put on the news.

"Motorcycle accident on the freeway. Tragic accident. Low chance of survival. Motorcyclist identified as Maxwell Brooks. No more updates on that story."
