Good Girls Gone Bad- Luke Brooks <3

Chapter 8

So many emotions I felt sitting there on the swing set yet I still had no words to express it. Anger and sadness was all I could feel and I didn't know how to get rid of it or how I could stop the tears from coming down my face. I looked at my surroundings and the sight made me start to feel stupid and hopeless. If anyone happen to walk by I would look so pathetic and I was well aware of that. To try to escape my thoughts I pulled out my phone. I realized that I haven't looked at it since I left school earlier on today. I was amazed at what I saw on the screen. 14 missed calls and 10 texts.

Eliza- Hey sweetie, where are you? you left early today?

Eliza- Are you okay? You didnt seem yourself today

Eliza- I'm really starting to get worried please answer me

I decided to text her back immediately feeling sorry that it took me this long to realize that she has been trying to reach me. 

Hey Eliza, I'm soooooooooo sorry I didn't see your texts and I only just looked at my phone now. I'm okay i promise xx

I also had other texts from the boys.

Beau - Hey Lucy!! Where are you? Eliza is kinda worried about you, and we are all wondering if youre okay!

To that I answered : Yeah sorry I didnt lookat my phone I answered her! You guys dont have to worry xx

Jai- Lucy bobby! How come you werent there after school? :( Is evrything okay?

I answered: So sorry! You guys werent there and I just decided to leave without you guys

There was also a few from my mother to which I ignored and a few others from the other boys. I answered them with quick texts and then put my phone away. I closed my eyes and tried to calm down. I didn't have much time before my phone started to ring. I wasn't going to answer but when I saw it was Eliza I decided I better answer. I pressed accept and exhaled deeply.

" LUCY? are you there???" Her panicked voice seemed to comfort sightly and made me want to giggle.

"yes, I am perfectly fine. why are you so panicked ? " To that I laughed a bit to try and distract from my hoarse voice.

"well you weren't there after school and you didn't text us to tell us why and you've been acting weird all day and I don't know." Along with her voice I could also hear muffled male voices in the background and then I knew that she was with the boys.

" Well I'm fine. See, you worried for nothing"

There was a moment of silence and then she replied, " then why do you sound like you've been crying?" I could hear complete silence on the other end after she said those words and it made me a bit nervous. I was never really good with lying.

"What? I'm not crying" I said with a fake laugh. I could feel that she was hesitating on what to say next and I decided to end the conversation, " look I have to go so I'll see you guys tomorrow or something."

"Oh okay, I'll see you tomorrow then " she seemed sad with my response which made me feel guilty instantly. I didn't have the heart to say anymore except a brief 'bye' and hung up. It was now 10:30 and I just wanted to be in my bed but I knew that it was not an option right now. I didn't want to go home at all right now. I knew that my mom would probably stay up and wait out for me and it was not what I needed right now. My head is messed up and I just want to cry alone. Thankfully I had my earphone here with me and that made me slightly happy. I got up and laid down on the grass. I plugged my earphones in my phone and put it on shuffle. I looked up at the sky and was not surprised to see a starless sky up above. Tonight was not worthy of it and that thought made me sad all over again. Every night should a night filled with thousands of beautiful bright stars. Unfortunately, it was not the case tonight. 

I closed my eyes and tried to only fill my mind with the music that filled my ears. Eventually, I drifted off to a magical place where none of my worries existed.
