The Abandoned (currently on hold)

Chapter Three

I open my eyes and I let out a scream. I was laying in a bed in a strangers room! Where am I? I don't know where I am or how I got here. Then I suddenly remembered what happened. I passed out when Jake (the new kid in school) was trying to talk to me. How could I be so stupid as to let me embarrass myself?

Wait...so if I passed out when he grabbed a hold of me...did that mean...? No, it can't be. This can't be his room! My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. I remained quiet as the door swung open. It was him. Jake was standing at the door looking pleased and with a smile on his face. I hadn't noticed that I was staring at him with a love-struck look on my face.

"How was your sleep?" He asked.

"Fine...thank you...what time is it?" I asked worried, remembering that I was supposed to be in school

"It's almost 4:00 pm. You were out for quite a while."

It was almost 4:00 pm!!! How did this happen? I have to get out of here and head home before Lori gets worried.

"Can you take me home, please?" I found myself asking Jake.

"What's the hurry? Afraid your boyfriend will get worried?"

My boyfriend? I didn't have a boyfriend! How could he assume that a poorly dressed girl like me would have a boyfriend?

"No, it's just I have to get home." I replied vaguely.

"Well it's going to be hard for you to get out of here."

What was he talking about. Was he going to hold me hostage or something? Why would it be hard for me to get out?

As if reading my thoughts he added in "It kind of snowed while you were out and now we are snowed in. We are trapped in here...I'm sorry."

Snow? We hadn't had snow in almost 3 years now and today just had to be the day for mother nature to change that? I was kind of glad I was trapped here because I would be with Jake-wait..what am I thinking? I don't even know him!

I have to get home before Lori, but how? If we really are snowed in, how am I going to get out? Maybe, I should call her. At least she won't be that worried if she knows I'm ok.

"Umm...can you excuse me for a second? I have to call someone." I said as I looked up and realized that Jake had been staring at me all this time with a grin on his face. The thought of this made my face heat up and I immediately knew I was blushing. I quickly turned away and tried to hide it. Why was I blushing? I never blushed before because of a guy!

He interrupted my thoughts once again with his heavenly voice. "Sure...I'll just be in the living room if you need anythin."

With that said, he left the room and I felt a bit of relief that he hadn't noticed my blush. At least I don't think he did, and if he did, well he didn't say anything.

I pulled out my phone and dialed Lori's number. She picked up the phone after the first ring. Oh gosh, that means she's probably at home and she's freaking out because she didn't where I am. "Lisa, where are you? You were suppose to be home half an hour ago! Are you ok? What happened? Did you go to school? Are you aware that it is snowing badly outside? Do you know how worried I am?"

She bombarded me with questions and I wasn't sure if I was ready to answer some of them. What will she say when I tell her that I am at some guys house because I passed out while attempting to talk to him? She will probably get worried and start babbling about how I have to get home right away! But how? I'm trapped in here until the snow melts.

"Lisa?" Her voice halted my thoughts. What am I going to tell her? I can't lie to her and say that I'm at a friends because I don't have any. I never really cared about not having any friends and I didn't make any attempts to get any but now I'm regretting never trying. What do I tell Lori? Think Lisa think!!!

------------------------------------- 

What do you think Lisa will tell Lori?Do you think she'll make up a lie or tell her the truth. You'll find out in the next chapter. Thanks for reading and I'm sorry my that my chapters are a bit short. I'll try to work on making the next ones a bit longer. 

Yours truly,
