Chapter 9

Chapter 9

I walk out of my hospital room, searching the nearby waiting-room for Ashlee & Tony. But they were no where in sight. I look down at my phone, searching through my contacts.. I click on my brother's name.. Oh, how I wish I could just call him & tell him too come pick me up. No one understood how much I loved him. He was always there for me, through everything. He was the only person I could always depend on.. & Now, he's just gone. I try & shake the thoughts out of my head. I look around once more for Ashlee & Tony. With them no where in sight, I go too the front desk & check myself out. As I walked out of the hospital, then sudden realisation of how bad my head hurts, hit me. I saunter over to the little bench by the sidewalk. I just sit there & think about what too do next. I can't go home, because my moms working & I don't want too deal with Jim right now. & With my brother gone, I have no where else too go.
"Kat!" I hear Ashlee from behind me. I turn around too see her & Tony, hand-in-hand walking towards me. "Where'd you go?" She said as she sat next too me.
"I couldn't find you guys, so I was just gonna walk home." I say pointing towards the direction of my house.
"Oh, come on Kat. I know you we haven't been friends for a couple years & all, but even I know that you wouldn't volunteerly go home. Where's Adam?" She said with hopeful eyes.
"Oh.. uh, I don't know." I say holding back the tears.
"What do you mean, 'you don't know'?" She said, scooting closer too me.
"He left. He took Lainey & left. I don't even know if they're safe!" I say as the tears escape from my eyes. I put my head in my hands, as I feel Ashlee's arms hug around me. I would usually try & break her grasp, but I couldn't gain the strength too move. We sat that for a while, until Ashlee's phone vibrated.
"Guys, we have too go." She said getting up. "My mom said that I need too go pick up my little sister from daycare." Ash said as she helped me up.
"Can I come? I haven't seen Selena since she was a baby." I say quietly, I didn't know why I wanted too go, but I did.
"Of course! What about you Tone?" Ash said picking up her purse from the ground.
"Nah, I can't. Jaime will kill me if I don't go & help him with his math homework. I promised I would yesturday & I didn't show." Tony said as he gave Ashlee a hug. He looked at me, his eyes trying too figure out what his boundaries were. He just put his hand on my shoulder & nodded his head. "Bye guys, see you tomorrow." He said as he walked towards his car. Ashlee tapped my shoulder & pointed too a nice silver car. "That's mine." She said walking towards it.
"Wow.. Nice car." I said as I climbed in.
"Thanks, this is what the result of me working my ass off since I was 11 years old." She said as we pulled out. The car ride was different from me & Vic's car ride. With Vic, it was silent. But I was perfectly fine with that. But with Ash, she wouldn't shut up.. It made me realise how much I missed Ash. When we pulled up into the daycare parking lot, Ash looked at me with her eyes filled with tears.
"Ashlee, what's wrong?" I say pulling her into a hug.
"Everything, Kat. My parents are never home, I'm in love with a guy who doesn't even know, my little sister is getting older so she's starting too notice what's going on, my anxiety has been non-stop lately, everyone at school hates my guts, & I have missed you soo much.." She says in one big breath. I was speechless, I didn't even know all of this was happening with Ashlee. She seemed soo happy & full of life earlier. I hugged her even tighter, realising that we needed each other now more than ever.
"Ash, I'm here for you. I always will be, okay? We'll get through life together." I say wiping her tears from her cheeks. She smiled & began too get out of the car. I followed along, & walked up too the door with her.. "Ash.?" I say stopping her from going in.
"Yeah?" She said turning around too look at me.
"So.. who's this guy that you love?" I say smiling.
"Oh.. that. I didn't mean for that too come out, it just kinda slipped." She said as she tried too escape the conversation.
"Ash, you can trust me. You know that."
"Okay.. fine, it's Tony.." She whispers, as if someone she knew was going too magically show up & hear her.
"I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! YOU TWO ARE GONNA FALL IN LOVE, & HAVE CUTE LITTLE BABIES! I BETTER BE YOUR MADE OF HONOR!" I yell as I run into the daycare center laughing.
"Shut up, you big asshole!" She joked as she punched my shoulder. "Tony doesn't like me.. He doesn't even know how I feel. I have been friendzoned forever." She said as she walked away. I need too find out if Tony feels the same way.. Because, let's be honest. Those two were made for each other. As I was thinking of all the ways too get them together, I was interupted by my phone buzzing. I pulled it out of my pocket & saw his name..
