The Summer He Saved Me

Chapter 17 - Road Trip

I walked down the boardwalk, "I wish I knew where you were" I mumbled to myself. 

I walked towards the volleyball net, there hanging from the net was a lavender envelope. I ran towards it, I ripped it open and read,

You're really close. Just remember one more thing to know where I am, where did I get the 'L' shaped pendant on my necklace?

I thought for a moment, her mother. The one adult who she considered a parent. 

"But how do I find you?" I said out loud. 

I turned around, and walked back down the boardwalk towards my house, there, taped to the mailbox was another lavender envelope. I opened it. 

8012 Salsburry Lane

That's just a couple miles away, I thought. I called Jason as soon as I got into my room.

"Jason." I said.

"Yeah, bro."

"I need you're help."

"Sup?"

"I think I've found Olivia."

"Sweet bro, what do you need me to do?"

"Do you know where Salsburry Lane is?"

"Yeah."

"Could ya take me?"

"Course man, be there in 10."

"Thanks man."

I hung up the phone, grabbed my back pack, my phone, my wallet, some extra cash and some extra clothes. I ran out the door, just in time to hop into Jason's car. We were on our way, finally after what felt like hours of driving we pulled up in front of 8012 Salsburry Lane. 

"You sure this is the place?" Jason asked.

"I'm sure."

"Okay" Jason said openning the door.

"Wait, wait, what are you doing?" I asked.

"Going with you."

"Nah man, I'll be fine. Let me do this on my own."

He shrugged and let me go, watching me walk across the mosaic stepping stones and up the porch steps. I knocked. Nobody answered, I looked inside, it was dark. I tried the door, it opened. I leaned my head inside, "Olivia?" I called. 

"Tyler?" I heard Olivia call.

"Olivia!" I cried louder.

Then suddenly a light went on and Olivia ran into my open arms.
