Why Not Both

»The Un-expected Call«

* ★ • ° ★ ° • ★ • ° ★ *

I woke up to the sound of my ringtone. I sluggishly got up and stared at my phone ring for a few seconds, before I let out a loud sigh and picked it up.

*No Caller ID*

Odd? I don't get many calls, especially ones at Fucking three in the morning.

Ah whatever, whoever it is already woke me up so might as well see what it's about.

"Hello? Who is this?" I answered the phone, my voice was very groggy and tired, with just a hint of frustration.

"Uh. . Hey Katie, Can we talk?"

A familiar voice responded, They sounded nervous and kinda scared?

"I'm sorry, Who is this and how do you know my name? Are you those girl scouts again, I told you I don't wa-"

"No, No, Katie It's April and I really need your help." I was shocked, I almost dropped my phone when I heard her name.

A wave of anger rushed through me. If I wasn't awake a minute ago I definitely was now that's for sure. What could she need from me?

"April, I didn't think I'd ever talk to you ever again." I said through gritted teeth. It's true, I never thought I would ever hear her voice again after we broke our friendship off.

"Yeah, I know but please just listen to me ok? I seriously need your help" You'd think whatever was so important that she would just straight up say it but no,

I sighed in frustration, and rubbed my temples.

I can't believe I'm about to listen to anything she's about to say right now.

"Ok, just get on with it before I lose my patience, O'Neil"

Through the phone I could hear her take in a long breath, preparing for whatever she's about to tell me.

"Ok so, New York was taken over by these alien robots named The Kraang, and some crazy stuff happened, we barely escaped an-"

"Do I look stupid to you? We don't talk for years because of your toxic personality, and now your calling me five years after our little 'break up' to try and humiliat me again?"

Did she really think I would believe a word she was saying after everything she did when we were friends?

"No, no, Katie pleas-" Through the call I heard the phone get snatched from April's hand as she was trying to explain herself.

"Katie, I know it sounds far fetched but everything she is saying is true." A voice that is pretty hard to forget explains.

"Casey? Is that you?" I asked, my anger seething just a tad.

During the time I knew April back then, we met Casey. We were decent friends and he had a huge crush on April, when me and April broke it off he was sort of in the middle I guess? He stayed friends with her and after I moved into my old family farm we just stopped talking.

"Hey Kat, we seriously need your help. April, Me, and a couple of other friends of ours." Casey said through the phone, his voice was shaky and obviously afraid. Ive only seen this side of Casey a few times when I knew him, if he was acting like this then April, as much as I hate to say it. . Was telling the truth.
