"Where are they?"

I walked up to my dresser opening every drawer, yet no sign of my favorite pair of flared leggings.
Maybe they're in my closet? I opened my closet as I searched for them all the way in the back.

"YES FOUND THEM!"

Hearing my door creak wide open I turned around to see my mom carrying a laundry basket. "Ooh what'd you find?" "Sorry a little loud. I was looking for these," I said holding the pair in front of me. "You didn't tell me you were going out?"

"O-Oh yeah about that..... I'm going out," I said with a sly smile. She immediately put her hand on her hip. "And with whom?"
"I-I was gonna go see a friend." "A friend? Is it that cute boy that came over the other day?" "Which one?" I felt my cheeks warm up. Jesus that dosen't sound right.

My mom chuckled as she knew exactly what she was doing. "Oh hun I'm not blind I know that Embry boy is your friend and you obviously like that Jacob Black." I felt my stomach fall to my ass. "W-Well umm...t-this isn't things you talk with your mom about but yes I'm going to see Jacob."
She instantly gasped as she put her hand over her heart.

"WOW VERA! I'm not only your mom but I'm also your best-friend who you can tell anything to."

I gave her a small but sure nod. "Of course..... mom !" She chuckled as she walked away.

"Hey Landon," I gently knocked on his door. No response.

"Landon? Come on you can't still be mad at me?" I pressed my ear to his door not hearing any sound. I turned around as I reached the stairs. I faced back looking at his door. I mean why not? I walked back as I turned the doorknob opening his door. Looking around his room it was a complete mess. The curtains were fully closed no sun coming through at all. Empty cans and water bottles were all over the floor.

I turned to his bed as I saw him lying there sleeping or at least I think he is. I began walking closer to him as I looked over at his hand. He fell asleep holding something. As I got closer I noticed his hand...it was a small bag filled with a white powder.

I instantly felt sick to my stomach.

I hurriedly looked over at his face as he still had some on his nose. "LANDON!" I slapped his face around to see if he was breathing. I held his face as I tried waking him up. "LANDON WAKE UP!" I immediately felt his cold hands on my arms. "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT?"

Relief hit my body as I fell down to the ground. I felt my body moving but I had no control over it. I looked over at him as I felt my vision go blurry.
"YOU'RE SERIOUSLY ON FUCKING COCAINE NOW!" He slowly got up as he leaned his back on his headboard.

"Whisper they're gonna hear you!" I shook my head In disbelief.

"That's what you're worried about?!" He reached for the shirt next to him as he threw it over his head. I slowly got up as I looked at him.
"The pills? Now fucking coke??! W-What if... what if it was mom or dad who walked in instead of me? Now what?"
"Jesus calm down I was just having a bit of fun and I would've dealt with it." "Dealt with it?!"

He groaned as if it was a normal occurrence. Like it was normal....

I felt my head look down. I could hear my heart beating through my whole body. My ears felt like they were about to explode.... I immediately moved my hands  to  my heart as it felt as if it was about to come out of my chest. I was hyperventilating as I stumbled back.

"What the fuck is wrong with you? Shit are you high?"

"N-No I think I need to...." I felt him catch me as I fell back on his bed. "Jesus and I thought I was high? Be back gonna get some water."
I forced myself up opening up my eyes as my vision was still a little blurry. Fuck another panic attack. Great...

I held onto the walls as I walked towards the stairs. I stepped down slowly step by step as I heard a glass cup hit the counter.
"What the fuck are you doing up? You literally passed out and now you don't want my help."

I walked up to the counter as I took the glass of water from his hand. "I'm fine."

"Are you okay honey you're looking a little...pale?"

"I'm fine mom I'm gonna go now." "Are you sure I can make Landon drive you?"

"NO! Sorry I mean no thanks I'll walk."
"Ok well call me if you need anything." "Y-Yeah of course!" I shut the door behind me as I began walking.

I held onto my phone as I continued walking towards Jacob's house. I'm not gonna lie it's pretty far from my house. But I just needed to clear my mind from what the fuck just happened. First the pills now this...... he's beyond saving. I finally looked up as Jake's house was in sightseeing.

Turning the corner I realized his dad was siting on the porch reading.

"Hello Mr. Black,"I said walking up to him. "Oh come on Vera I've told you Billy is just fine." 

"R-Right," I smiled as I nodded my head.
"Is everything alright, you look like you got something on your mind," he asked concerned. "Oh no I'm fine really," I assured him as I smiled.

"You don't have to tell me but don't keep it all bottled in kiddo," he chuckled as he closed his book. "Y-Yeah thanks Mr--Billy."

He smiled as he looked up at me. "Is Jacob home perhaps?" "Yeah he's right down there in the shed," he pointed.

"Thank you nice seeing you sir."

"My pleasure!"
