The longest run

Chapter 2

Jennifer's POV

-I'm on my way:p
I sent the text to Rachel letting her know.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

"Thanks for dropping me off mom"

"No problem"

When I arrived at her house I just walked in. We're like family to each other. When I walked in I said hi to her mom and dad and went to her room.

"Hey girl" she said to me

"Heeeeeeey"

"Haha so, movie night ?"

"Sounds great" I said and we both went to get the stuff for it.

15 mins later we had candy, chips, soda, popcorn, and cookies laced out next to us.

"What movie are we gonna watch?" I asked

"You'll see" Rachel said with a wink

"I swear if it is a scary movie or anything to do with zombies imma kill you" I hate those kinds of movies and she knows it.

"Don't worry we'll watch a Disney or comedy movie after." I just hate her sometimes.

*when movie ends*

"So I heard Anthony is coming back."
I heard my friend say. But I think I might have heard her wrong.

"Like, Anthony Anthony???? The one who stuck a whole box of chewing gum in my hair and made me go pretty much bald?? That Anthony ?" God I hope she says no. I hate that guy.

"No" thank god. I feel like I could breath again. But I wasn't ready for what she was gonna say next.

"The Anthony that we were always with"

After she said that my eyes went big and I started to get angry.

The thing was, was that we all grew up together. Me him and Rachel. Then one day out of the blue in 7th grade he just disappeared. He never answer his calls, texts, emails, social media, we even went to his house and no one answered. So for that I kind of started to hate him.

"Your kidding me right?"

"Nope"

"Ughhhh"

"Tell me bout it"

I can't believe this is acually happening. Is my mind playing tricks on me or something? If so it needs to stop. Then a thought came to mind.

"How do you know this?" I asked but continued to talk. "because of what I remember, no one was able to get ahold of him."

When I was done talking Rachel looked kind of scared,like she was hiding something.

A good 2 minutes passed and she still didn't say anything.

"Rachel....what are you hiding from me..?"

"Uuuuuuuummmmmmmm"

"Rachel tell me"

"Ikindofwasalwaysabletocontacthim. hesaidhedidntwanttoloseyouslowlysohejustdiditallatonce."

"Rachel slow down"

"Okay. The truth is, is that me and him never stopped talking. He said he had feelings for you and knew that you would slowly grow apart. He didn't want to go through that so he though leaving all at once would be better. He would always ask how you were doing but always asked me not to tell you. Jennifer I'm sooooooooo sorry. I swear if I could I would have told you. I wanted to but he made me promise."

After hearing that I sat there for a minute, then got up and left. I grabbed my stuff left the house just started to walk.
