My Diary and The Bad Boy

Chapter 28

Brenda's P.O.V.

I couldn't find Zach anywhere, I am starting to get a little worried. School ended almost a hour ago and I still hadn't left. Maybe Zach is already home.

I put my ear buds in and got off the curb. I started to walk home because Conner had dropped us off. Conner should have picked us up but he was probably busy.

I walked, lip syncing to my music. The song was "Crazy" by Shawn Mendes, it is one of my favorite songs at the moment. I don't even pay attention to my surrounds. Then I hear a car beep at me, I give them a sorry look and hurry up to cross the street.

As I'm walking, I feel as if someone is watching me. I may be wrong, but I know when people are looking at me. I looked around but no one was there, I just shrugged and kept walking. I was still listening to music and then my phone went off.

TEXT FROM: UNKNOWN

YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL TODAY.

TEXT TO: UNKNOWN

WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I started to get really worried and panic. I picked up my pace, which turned into speed walking, then jogging, and then I finally started to run. I was really scared, someone is watching me. I don't know who it is. What if it is a killer or a rapist? Oh my gosh, I can't breathe and the running isn't helping,

I heard a car pull up next to me, it was Conner. Finally, I was really started to get nervous. He smiled at me and I opened the car door and got in. It was silent for a minute and then he started to snicker which turned into a laugh.

"What's so funny?" I asked him annoyed and still a little out of breath.

"You look beautiful today," he said. I didn't get at first but then I did. I punched him in his arm and he started to rub it.

"Ow," was his reply.

"Why would you do that? You scared me, I thought some rapist was watching me," I yelled at him.

"You're fine aren't you?" he said with a 'duh' tone.

"You better sleep with one eye open tonight."

"That is what all the girls say, and plus I'm not scared of you."

"You should be," I said quietly while crossing my arms over my chest. The rest of the car ride was silent.

When I got home, I ran out of the car and inside to see if Zach was there, but he wasn't. I wonder where he is. Conner came in behind me and then his phone went off I wonder who that was, probably one of his friends from where he is from. I kind of want to know who had text him was Zach? What if Zach was in trouble? What of he was hurt? Wait, if something was wrong with Zach he would have text me. I guess I'll have to wait for Zach to get home to ask where he was.

I know I seem like a very attached girlfriend, but I'm really not, I am just really worried.

I just want to know if he is ok.

Conner's P.O.V.

My phone went off, notifying me I had a message. It was Zach. The message read "I am at Daisy's house. I made a mistake. Whatever you do, don't let Brenda know this happened. She would be heartbroken. I love her and don't want her to get hurt. Please just do this favor for me. Please?"

He is my buddy so of course I said that I would help him. I told Brenda that he was busy with one of his friends from school and that he would be home in a few hours. At first she didn't believe me but then she was gullible enough to believe it.
