Chapter 9- Dates?

Lara and Justin finally showed up and we walked in to the theatre and the seating was Justin, Lara, Chad, me, Chase and Mika. Half way through the movie I saw Mika leaning on chase, it was cute and then I looked over at Lara and Justin and of course they were making out.

Chad saw me looking around and he just looked at me and smiled and he put his arm around me and I smiled and looked up at him and he smiled back, Mika looked over at me and smiled and gave me a thumbs up and I just laughed.

"She is a bit of a weird one isn't she haha" Chad whispered.

"Who?" I asked.

"Haha Mika, silly" he laughed.

"Oh haha yeah" I laughed with him.

A jump scare came and I got so scared and I squealed and put my head on Chads chest and he laughed and put him am around me tighter, it felt really comforting to have his arm around me like that.

"Wouldn't have expected you to get scared by a little jump scare Syd" Chad whispered into my ear and I playfully slapped his hand.

HE HAD A NICKNAME FOR ME!!!!!!!

When the movie was over we waited for everyone to leave before leaving, while we were sitting there chad said "we should do this again syd! With just the two of us" and he winked.

"Like a date?" I asked.

"Yeah haha" he said.

"I'd love too!" I said in excitement.

We finally got up and left. On the way out chad grabbed my hand in his and we were holding hands!

We walked around for a bit and got some food.

I decided I would check my phone since I hadn't checked it since before we went into the movies.

"Shit" I said.

"What's wrong?" Lara, Chad and Mika asked.

I have like 10 miss calls from my mom" I said feeling worried.

"Just call her now" Lara said

I walked a couple of metres away from the group so that it wouldn't be loud.

My mom answered the phone and she was crying "mom what's wrong" I asked getting worried

"Sydney please come home something has happened" she said

"Mom please tell me what's wrong?" I persisted.

I think the others could hear me because they were all looking at me

"Honey it's your father" she said her sobs getting louder

Tears started to fill my eyes "what happened to him mom? Please just tell me"

"Your father and I had a fight and he stormed off and drove away in his car and he had a car accident and there is very little possibility of him surviving" she said.

I fell to the floor crying I could see the others running up to me I could feel chads arm around me.

Mika kneeled in front of me saying "Sydney just breath, just breath" and she kept o repeating it but I couldn't calm down.

Lara grabbed my phone and started talking to my mom she came back with tears in her eyes and said "Mika come here now please" mika got up and walked over to her I could only faintly hear them but I knew that my mother had told Lara because mika came over with tears in her eyes saying dot worry we will just pray and hope that he has that little ability to survive.

I kept crying I just couldn't hold it in but I had chads am around me the whole time.
