I'll meet you there

10 years

It had been 2 years since the time Blaze and I became friends, now we were best friends. My crush for Blaze had blossomed into a beautiful flower and I still didn't have the nerves to tell him about it. Rose now ignored us other then the times shed talk about us behind our backs or bumping past us when the bell rang dismissing us.

"Rose really hasn't gotten over what you did to her last year," Blaze says as I take a bite into my ham sandwich.

"Well I don't care. She was being rude and I was feed up with her and her attitude. Also the way she treated you was absolutely disgusting," although she still treated him the same, she did the same to me. Pushing us around like rag dolls, making up rumours about how Blaze and I were dating and the worst was when she told our teacher in front of class about how we pulled her hair. We got sent to the office. Then one day she was picking on Blaze and he called her off saying that she's so insecure and jealous that Suede just didn't like her anymore. Rose turned on her heels and scurried off in a hurry. But through the thick and the thin Blaze and I still stuck up for each other and had each others back and that's all that I could ask for.

"Well I'm glad we are still friends," he smiles then gets back to eating his lunch.

"So want to come down to the ravine with me. I found this really cool fort that was abandoned," he asks as we walk back home from school.

"Sure sounds great. We'll just need to drop by at my house and tell my mom. Is that alright?"

"Yep that's fine,"

"Don't you need to tell your family?" In the two years that we have been friends you'd think he would of told me anything about his family and his guardians that he lived with. But nothing, every time the subject comes it it comes down as quickly as it came.

"Nah, they don't care about where I am," he replies looking away as if the question had touched a sensitive part of him.

We walk down the street to my house. It was spring time, all the trees were budding and the air smelt fresh and crisp. Spring was my favourite season. Not to cold, not to warm. When we reach my house I tell Blaze to wait outside for I'll only be a little while, then I head up the front porch to my house.

"Mom Blaze and I are going to the ravine!" I yell into the huge hall. She doesn't answer so I turn to ablaze and wave my hand indicating for him to come in. "Mom?! Where are you?" I yell, all I hear is my echo botching around the walls. I race up the stairs and bolt into her room. Nothing. Her bed was freshly made and the room was tidy.

Where could she be?

I pad down the wooden stairs and look at Blaze.

"She's not upstairs," I look around nervously. "Mom!" I yell one more time. But it's no use. "Blaze I'm getting scared. Where could she have went. Her cars in the driveway and she never leaves the house when school is over," I amble into the kitchen looking around for a note or anything that my mom could of left for me. Nothing.

"Suede," I hear Blaze call from the living room. I ignore him, still searching. "Suede!" His voice is louder and more serious, I run into the living room and stop beside him.

"What?" I ask p. He points to the living room floor to where my mom is laying down on the carpet, out cold. We both kneel down beside her. "Maybe she feel off the couch when she was having a nap. She has been taking those more recently." I pull her hair from her face revealing wide open blank eyes. I yelp in astonishment and move away from her.

"Blaze we need to call 9-1-1," I panic to get up and rush to the phone.

"They will never believe us."
