Diversity - Up Close And Personal Book 1

Away For A Few Days

McKenzie P.O.V
My mom. She knows the right thing to say to me when I'm upset.

I know she'll make me feel better about the whole situation.

I knock on her door soaking wet because its raining cats and dogs outside.

"Mom Mom please !" I yell as I pound on the door.

Nothing.

This is the last thing I need right now.

My team mates hate me. My mother is not even home.

I don't know what to do.

Maybe I should go.
Away for a few days.
I'll come back.
Not tell anyone that I'm gone.

Perri P.O.V
"Ughhhh" she won't pick up.

I've been trying to reach McKenzie all day and I haven't been able to get any response.

"Pel calm down" Sam says.

"NO THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT. IF YOU HADN'T OF SAID THISE MEAN THINGS AND MADE HER FEEL LIKE SHIT SHE WOULD BE HERE RIGHT NOW !!!" I scream.

Im so upset right now.

What if she ran away ?
Is she not in Diversity?
Does she not like us anymore ?

I feel my phone vibrate as do everyone else's.

"It's a text from McKenzie" I say.

Is reads :

Listen I hate to do this over a text message but it has to be done.
I decided to go away for a bit and give you guys some space. Don't try find me because I am quite far away staying with an old friend. I don't know when I'll be back or even if I'll come back. But I love you guys.

-McKenzie

I'm in shock.
I don't know why she went away.
Did I do something ?

I just couldn't help silent tears falling down.

I just can't help but feel like this is all my fault.

"We have to find her guys"

"Pel you heard her she doesn't want us to" Jordan tell me.

"JORDAN I LOVE HE-" I stop once I realise what I'm saying.

"Pel what's going on ?" Mitchell asks.

"I finally realise it guys. I love McKenzie." I sigh.

She needs to know.
