Bree

3-April(school)

My stepdad drove me and my sister, Emerson, to the high school that morning. Seeing all the teenagers walk into school made anxiety rush through me, it was the first time I realized I had exactly 0 friends in this world. I wasn't considered unpopular before I ran off but seeing that I ghosted all my past friends, this is going to be a hard rest of the school year. 

I suppose this could be a good thing, although I had friends before none of them were very good friends the only one I miss is a girl named Hannah, she was the best. But this could be a good opportunity to make new friends and be a new person.

On the other hand, if I expect disappointment will never be disappointed (I live by that) so this year will probably suck, I will be lonely and sad.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When we walked in Emerson walked off to go talk to her friends, (she on the other hand was extremely popular and had too many friends to remember.) My stepdad had to come with me to the front desk to finish getting me signed back into school. "It's a good thing you were such an excellent student before you left off you would have a very hard time re-entering school." "Yep, that's very good," my stepdad replied. I immediately thought of Conner, I hope he does okay when he comes back to school.

"Hey! Blondie!" "Bree" "breee!"

I turned around to see two boys I recognized to be Conner's old best friends Eathan, and Kurt, trying to talk to me.

"Yeah, what?''

"Your that girl conner was always with before he stopped answering our texts and he disappeared."

"Conner and I were friends, yes but he went to be with his sister and grandma in Vermont. Didn't he tell you guys?"

"Well yeah, but we don't believe that, conner wouldn't just stop texting us."

"So is it true that you ran away and got eloped in Brazil and had a secret baby but Conner dumped you to join the Air Force so you left the secret baby with a distant relative and came back to high school?"

"What no..."

"Wait you have to hear my theory too," Ethan said, "Ok so, you and conner go run away together for a bit, so your parents forbid you from seeing each other so you make a love pact to jump in front of a train so at least you can be together in the afterlife but you thought it was a joke he didn't he's dead and you're trying to cover it up by coming back to school and pretending you don't know anything."

"Guys! I'm sure there's just bad service in Vermont that's why Conner can reach you."

"Oh well this much less interesting, but still could he not find service the whole time he's been gone." "he's probably just found New friends and forgot about us."

I could tell they were trying to hide it but Ethan and Kurt looked sad when they thought of conner moving on from them, I wish I could just tell them that Conner didn't forget about them he was only ignoring them because there was no cellphone service in the fairytale world. Luckily Conner would be here soon to come up with his excuses.

"You know what blondie I like you," Said Kurt, "And since Conner is gone you should be our new Bestie," We'll call ourselves the "Conner hate club"

"Haha Okay," I laughed

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"BREE! I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD,"

A smile formed on my face, I could recognize that voice anywhere, "HANNAH!" I hugged her, "I'm so sorry I shouldn't have ghosted you, can we still maybe be friends?"

"Of course, I was so bored without you." " I see you've met my cousin Ethan."

"Ethan's your cousin?!?!"

"Yep,"

"Hey, Hannah you should join our Conner Hate Club," Said Kurt.

"Umm ok."

Kurt had us all make a secret handshake the four of us talked and laughed all the way to our classes.

Maybe this year will be better than I expected.
