Most kids had already come home, but Alex stayed longer than usual.
His eyes caught to mine, he quickly got up and ran to me.
I felt the urge to run away to my mom.
?!!? WHAT
I knew she was waiting on me..
..but I have to see what Alex wants..
She could spare a minute, right ??
Once he got to me, he held my hands softly, making my heart pound.
OH MY GOSH AHAHAHAHA OKAY ALRIGHT
My face burnt up as I felt a surge of energy.
"Hey, Alex." I giggled, flustered.
"Hi, Evelyn."
"What do you need..?" OH MY GOSH!!!!! :)
"Well, I wanted to come with you."
WHAT
UH NO???!
I haven't updated in a second, but let me tell you I was NOT informed of this at all.
There was NO planning!!
"I'm sorry, but mom would NEVER let me. Not without planning at least.."
"maybe in a couple weeks??" I muttered.
My voice went wobbly. Why does this always happen??
"No, Evelyn, you're not understanding me. I have to come with you. I need to know where you sleep, eat? Who your mother and father are, your ZIP code, and everything about you. This is what friends do, right?!"
OHHHHHHNOOOOO
"No, Alex! I'm very sorry but I can't-"
"What are you talking about!?? I can come with you if I'd like. It's not like I'm a killer, you weirdo. I'm a normal kid. Why are you so scared of me? Does your mom abuse you?! What's wrong with you??!" He snapped, his green eyes stabbing through mine with a piercing glare like no other.
WHAT?!
Why would he say that?! Why?!
"I'm sorry I have to go-" I blurted out as I pushed him down and ran off.
Flying though the doors, I panicked through to the car and slammed it shakily, to which mom was startled.
