Skylar's Pov:

I held on tight to the CD as I ran along with Jordan and Taylor. We all soon stopped running and stood on the sidewalk breathing heavily. As our breath began to return back to normal we all look at one another and a smile formed across our faces.

I look at the CD in my hand trying to read what Anna had written. Its kinda hard to read though, but I manage to only read the last sentence. Its not that long though. Anyway it says: Your one lucky girl, Emily. Love the one and only Anna Kendrick. Emily you're going to love us forever.

I thought about how I'm going to give it back to her. She didn't really give it to me......I sorta took it from her backpack while she wasn't looking. However, I don't think she'll be upset....by that I mean that I've noticed that she hasn't been herself lately. She's been distancing herself from us. Never talks to us as much as she did when school began. I don't know..... a lot has happened ever sin- nevermind just a lot has change throughout the school year. This however, will definitely cheer her up.

(Skylar = Normal, Jordan = Bold, Taylor = Italics)

"Do you know how you're going to give it back to her?"

"No, but I'll think of something. She probably won't be that upset. You know since Da-" I start, but then get interrupted by Taylor.

"Sshh. Don't say his name. Remember we all promised never to bring him up" She hissed.

Oops. I kinda forgot about that.......we all promised never to talk about what happened that dreadful night......

"I mean since a lot has happened and you know she just hasn't been herself lately soo....she'll just probably shrug it off." I finish.

"Hey guys I got to go. See you guys at school tomorrow...Oh and Sky we'll go with you when you give Emily her CD back. Anyway bye."

There goes Jordan. Now its just me and Taylor. I walk home with Taylor basically because we live next door and so we can discuss about how we should give Emily the CD.

I wave goodbye to Taylor before I enter my own home.

I plop myself on my bed exhausted from today. I turn over on my side and just thinking about what will happen tomorrow. My eyes soon became heavier and slowly closed leading me into a deep sleep.

Emily's Pov:

I closed the door as quietly as I could without making a sound. I set my bag down on the couch and quickly head in the kitchen to begin dinner. I just hope they're not here. I look out the window and see that their cars were gone leaving the driveway empty as can be. I let out a small sigh of relief knowing that I was safe for now.

I head back out of the kitchen and grabbed my phone from my bag. I turn on some music and began cooking. I normally have something plan to make for dinner, but not tonight. I guess it'll just be chicken and rice. That's the only thing we have here to cook. Its like they never have money to buy food......I mean good, real, food.

While cooking I hear the keys rustling in the lock. I hear my parents laugh as they walk in closing the door. I walk out of the kitchen and say dinner is almost done........however, I still get the same response everytime I tell them something....not that big of shock.....

I walk back in the kitchen and just finish making dinner.

"Dinner is ready!" I yell as I set the food out on the counter waiting for them to just grab their plate of food and go. I make my plate and go sit down at the table while I watch as they come in and leave while giving me glares as if looks could kill.

As soon as they're gone I devour my food and put it in the dish washer. I start to clean up the kitchen waiting for their dirty plates. Though I bet they already went up to bed not even bothering to touch or eat the food I made.

As I finish cleaning the kitchen I start heading upstairs only to be stopped by the full wasted food on their plates just laying on the couch. I walk over and pick the two plates. I put the food in two separate containers for tomorrow. There. Now I'm done.....at least I hope I am.

I felt different though tonight.....something changed......or something didn't happen.....that's odd. It hits me as I realized that not once had they laid one finger on me....that's very unsual.

I'm not really sure if something will happen tonight while I'm sleeping. Oh well. I sink into bed and pull my covers over my body. I lay there wondering if my friends got to even meet Anna. What if they did? Did they mention anything about me? I frown a bit as I had all of these thoughts go through my mind. I guess you could say that I kinda felt...a little......jealous.

I shook my head just trying to clear my mind. I tried to go to sleep, but I couldn't get comfortable. Since I couldn't sleep I got on my phone to see what's new. I look through my photos. They're all edits of Anna. I scrolled through all of them and found my very first edit I made. It had a blue background with multiple pictures of Anna blended in all together. Then it had text on it which read: My mind has always been on you. Is it possible that yours been on me?

I smile and thought that maybe it would be cute if I posted it on instagram. I go on instagram and upload the image. As my caption I type: Scrolling through my photos when I found my first edit. @annakendrick47 you're always on my mind and you'll always will be.
