Now Or Never ~HSMTMTS

Scared

POV Miss Jenn

Tonight is Benjamin taking me on our first official date. It took us quite a while to decide where and when to go, because my head was too much at the musical. We just really have to win.

I chose to wear a bright red dress. I think red looks good on me. Is that weird to think of yourself? Probably.

Now I stand in front of my collection purses. I don't know which one fits the best with my dress. I do have a red one but it's not the same red.

It has to be the same red.

Maybe I should get another dress? The doorbell rings. Nope, not enough time to change into another dress.

I grab a small black purse where I quickly put my phone in. I try to stuff my lipgloss in there as well but the purse is too small.

Maybe I should grab a bigger purse? The doorbell rings again, a bit longer this time. I leave my lipgloss and the million other things I normally pack with me, and run to the door.

When I open it, I see Benjamin's gorgeous smile. He wears a suit which looks like it's bought 10 years ago from a grave.

"Nice suit," I state with a fake smile. "Thank you, it was the best I had," he says. I bet it was.

He hands me some pink flowers. I love pink and I love flowers. This makes up with the suit.

Benjamin opens the door from his car for me and I step into it. He gets in himself as well and he drives us to a small but cute restaurant.

A few minutes later, we're settled and I have some wine in front of me. I know it might sound a bit alcoholic but this is what I needed.

We order our food and stare at each other in silence until Benjamin breaks it. "Did I already tell you that you look amazing?" he asks.

"I believe you didn't," I answer with a smile. "Well, Jennifer, you look stunning tonight," he says and he smiles back.

"You always do," he says. "You're always so beautiful." "You're always trying very hard yourself, too," I state.

"This is not about me, it's about you," Benjamin says. "You are the most amazing person I've ever met. Since the first time I walked into your office, I know that you are a very strong and independent woman."

"I always wished that I could be the one who gets the honor of going on a date with you," he finishes.

"Wow, Benjamin, that's the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me," I say. "Despite the time that Lucas Grabeel remembered my name but that was when I was knocked-out so that doesn't count."

Benjamin frowns and I quickly say: "Nevermind!"

"I really like you, Jenn," Benjamin Mazzara says and he gently smiles.

"Good that you like something other than just your robots, right?!" I state quickly. "Erm, you think the food takes a bit too long, I think so, shall I take a look in the kitchen?" I say and I stand up from my chair but Benjamin takes my hand which causes me to get back in my chair.

"Jennifer, are you okay?" Benjamin asks. "Uh-huh, everything is fine, perfectly fine, why'd you ask?" I answer in a high pitched voice.

~Time Skip~

All the kids are in a circle around me except for Seb. "Still no sign of Seb?" I ask.

"I went to his house yesterday to see whether everything was okay but he still wasn't home," Kourtney says. "And his parents still don't say a thing about where he is."

This is the third day since Seb disappeared. "Shouldn't we go look for him?" Ricky asks. I can hear that he isn't comfortable with the idea that someone isn't safe.

He always wants everyone to be fine. He's very, very caring. It's a special kid.

"I agree, we can't go on like nothing happened, maybe he is in danger," Nini says. "But where can we look?" Steph asks.

"Anywhere, we could ask more of his family and, I don't know, maybe hang up some posters or something," Ricky says.

"I agree, we have to do something," I say. I've been so scared of what happened to him, I'm just scared that he is ignoring me and he disappeared because of our break up.

I just really, really hope he's okay.

We walk outside the classroom, leaving Miss Jenn behind. I think she'll get it.

We can't do a musical without Seb, we must find him.

We must find him.

Prepare for some really sad chapters...

I'm back, I know I've said this a lot the last few chapters but I finally found my passion for writing again. I just needed a lot of sad Joshua Bassett songs.

The last week was very busy for me, I went to an amusement park and did some laser gaming and stuff but now I have time again for a lot of writing so I will.

I'll try to upload another chapter today to apologize for the lack of updates :D

Love, Anna <3
