Sean hasn't talked to me in a couple days with our suspensions coming to an end and the old Impala I was working on almost finished, I believed he was no longer my friend.

Sleeping in a room with two girls is challenging for a guy, mostly to hide his umm, happiness.

Waking up Friday morning was great and quiet. I grabbed my phone and called up Sean, his father picked up.

"Hello?" I stuttered.

"Hello, if you're a friend of Sean's and you know where he ran away to that would be nice if you would tell us." Sean's dad answered.

I hung up the stairs phone as someone knocked on the door.

It was Tamari with a beer and a piece of paper in her hands. I snatched piece of paper from her hand, it read "I will be living on my own, I'm going to runaway to California, USA don't come for me."

I took Tamari by the shoulders and guided her to my couch so she could settle from her laughing

"There's a restroom down the hall if you need it." I told Tamari.

She continued to laugh. I also took the beer away and threw it away in the recycling. I took my hoodie and ran out the door closing it behind me.

In the F-150 I called Angela.

"Angela, Sean left for California. I don't know why, it must be bad." I said quickly.

"Matt calm down, he left, yes but he doesn't want to be found just let him be" She replied.

"Yeah I guess so"

"Come with me to a party."

"I don't thi-" I got cut off.

"Yes you can with 4 words. Jade. Will. Be. There."

And she was right 7:30 I was there with Angela in the passenger seat.

"Told ya. She might make a move on some guys for reasons not unheard of." Angela gloated.

Driving down suburb roads it seemed Angela was getting closer and closer every stop.

"I don't know why your going for Jade if you can get Tori like that." Angela snapped her fingers.

She brung up a good point, except I didn't fall in love with Tori, I fell in love with Jade.

"Angela there's an easy answer to this, I'm in love with Jade." I looked over at her. She stopped and breathed in.

"Turn right here" She looked away and pointed.

It was pretty obvious where the party was. There was people pouring out of the house. We parked down the street. After walking in the house I remember waking up sitting against a wall.

Getting up Jade was in a bed with a jock just sleeping nothing more I think. Angela spread out on the floor. I walked to the window my truck was still there not even a mark besides the couple in the bed of the truck. My cracked phone now was getting a call.
