UGHH I SWEAR I HAVEN'T WROTE IN FOREVER AND IM SORRY FOR THAT.BUT HEY I'M ACTUALLY UPDATING THIS STORY!GO ME 👏🏼 ANYWAYS ONTO THE STORY WE GO.

Chapter 5
The car ride was full of an intense silence that was uncomfortable,a 10 minute car ride seemed to last for an hour.When we both got home and Daniel immediately headed to his room without a simple word and he slammed his door so loud that I could hear it from downstairs and I even jumped a little.I guess it was too much to ask when I thought I deserved happiness.I walked slowly up to my room feeling as if all my energy had been drain out of my body.I walked over to the mirror where I put my book bag on the edge of my chair and skimmed the mirror.Looking into my own eyes I saw sadness as if I'd still been in the house with my dad.I always saw him in the middle of the night,he was away but he was near in my dreams.He always did drugs,and that made him happy,I wondered why I couldn't be happy.Happiness never lasts but yet I got my hopes up.I looked into the mirror once more and raced out of my room slamming my door behind me,I raced down the stairs and out of the house to go anywhere but here.I started to walk down the street lost in my engulfing thoughts when I suddenly realized it was dark and I had not a single clue on to where I was.Anxiety filled my head as the darkness surrounded me and flashes of my dad started to emerge.I grabbed my phone in a hurry dialing Daniel's number.But I got no answer just his shitty voicemail because he was pissed at me for some reason.Next I called my "dad" ring upon ring passed but no one ever answered.I began walking more in a hope to find somewhere I recognized but I had no such luck.I brought my phone out again and tried texting Daniel but I ran into someone.My blood pressure sky rocketed and I froze in place I slowly looked up to see no one I recognized just a hella hot guy.

"I'm-so um sorry about that." My voice was shaking and I looked like a complete moron to him.God his face and his arms then I realized I was staring at him so I quickly looked at his face again.

"It's fine,you lost because you seem frantic as hell?" His voice was a memorizing as his face.His voice was as rough as sand paper but in a hot as hell way.

"Um yeah..I just started walking around and now I have no idea where I am." The wind blew hair into my face and I adjusted the hair behind my ear so it hopefully stayed in place.

"You need a ride home?You look terrible-in the sense that you seem scared as hell and your pale."

"Yeah that'd be great..",I thought long and hard if he ever told me his name but I don't recall his telling me,"What's your name again?"

"It's Adam.And yours?"

"Bethany,but you can call me Beth."

"Pretty name for a pretty lady."

He lead me to his car and asked me my address,thank gosh I had learned my address by now,I told him and in about 30 minutes we arrived there.The car ride was fine but I was happy to be back home he turned his car off and got out to open my door for me,which was unusually nice of someone I didn't know.He leaned on the back of his car and I was I front of him flustered on what to say.

"Thanks for the ride Adam."

"Not a problem Beth." It was weird that he emphasized my name when he said it but I ignored that.

"I should be going but thanks again."

"Anytime.Maybe you should get lost more often." He said in a murmur.

I walked in the front door and locked it behind me to see a very unhappy Daniel awaiting me.Well this wasn't going to go down well.

"WHERE WERE YOU FOR ALMOST 3 HOURS!?AND WHO THE FUCK WAS THAT!" He screamed at the top of his lungs.I hated this so much,I can't handle this shit not now.I fought myself to not shed the tears I was holding back.

It's going to be okay Beth just breathe in and out.Answer Daniel and he'll calm down...I hope.

"I got lost.Adam gave me a ride back to here." I spoke with fear in my voice thinking that Daniel was going to lash out on me in a physical manner.

"I would have picked you up." He was gritting his teeth at this point pissed off still.

"I called you and you didn't answer so don't even play that card on me."

"You didn't leave a voicemail or call more than once." He spat obviously unsatisfied with my answer.

"A simple phone call is all it should have taken.I was in the dark about to have a panic attack and I called you but you didn't answer because your ego is something you can't get over,because your pride was to fragile to answer that damn call.I needed help and you were striving yourself on your ego and pride not giving a damn if I needed help." I ran out of that room as fast as I could racing up to my room where I locked the door behind me.When I knew I was alone I slid to the floor and lost it,the tears I was holding in had won and broke free.I was shaking and upset.I just wanted happiness,to be happy but I can't get that.I heard a knock at the door and ignored it I knew that it was Daniel but I didn't care.I gathered enough strength to get myself off the floor and made my way to my bed.My head was throbbing and I looked like a hot mess but I didn't care because I was going to sleep and I'd all be better in the morning.

At least I hoped so.
