What really happened

Hope you like it

Last time

"Hey, guys how was your walk?" Riker asks, looking nervous.

"It was good, where's Rock? I need to talk to him" everyone looks away,

"Well?" I ask after a minute of no one answering. Ryland shifts uncomfortably and I know he's close to saying what's happened, I walk over to him.

"Ry, do you need to say something?" I ask sweetly, he looks around at the others then back to be shaking his head.

"Do you know where Rocky is?" he gulps looking down,

"Ryland Michael Lynch you better tell me where my best friend is or I swear you will be very sorry and probably not be able to ice skate or move much tomorrow."

"Ok, ok fine, don't hurt me, Rocky ran out ..."

"And we don't know where his gone and he doesn't have his phone so we can't all him, he left like 10 minutes after you so he's been gone for about 40 minutes now." He says quickly I stand there in shock, no this can't be happening again, It can't, I can't loose him I can't. I hear my name being called and see fingers being snapped in front of my face.

"What the hell happened!? Why did he run away!?" I say my voice rising, with anger and panic, Rocky normally doesn't just storm out without letting someone know where he's going. Gus pulls me to the couch with him, pulling me onto his lap and wrapping his arms around me, probably so I don't start pacing.

"It's my fault Maya, I told Rocky he'd been rude and what he said was out of line, if you don't want to do something then that's fine, and we started arguing and he walked out, I'm so sorry Maya, I shouldn't have said anything, I just didn't like seeing him make you upset" Ross says getting up and walking over to me. I look at him with tears in my eyes. I wrap my arms around his neck pulling him into a hug

"It's ok, it's not your fault, it's my fault"

"Hey, no it wasn't it was no ones fault ok, how about that it's no ones fault" he tells me, I burry my head in his neck.

"but it was my fault, I should have come back after I stormed out, he was right I was just scared to do it" I say my voice cracking. Ross rubs my back softly. He shifts slightly so he's sitting on the floor with me on his lap.

"Ross, I need to find him, I can't let him be out there, it's to dark I can't loose him"

"Maya, It's not safe for you to go out now ok, Rocky will be fine"

"No, No I have to go find him" I jump up and run down the stairs, I grab a flashlight as I slip on my shoes.

"Maya!" I hear several of the guys shout, as they run down the stairs. I open the door but arms wrap around my waist pulling me back before I can step out, I wriggle around trying to get out of the persons grip.

"Maya stop you can't go out ok it's to dark." The person says,

"I have to find him, I wont just stay at home this time, I won't let it happen to him. I cant loose him" I scream.

"Maya what are you talking about" Riker asks as he struggles to hold me. I stop moving, no one but Rocky, he's parents, Ryland and Gus know how my family really die, I shut my eyes hearing the sirens and seeing the bright lights. We were in Colorado and they all went out for dinner, I stayed in my room because I was mad at them because they said that I couldn't go to this guys and girls house who I had met that day, they were siblings and they had invited me over to hang out with him and their friends, I didn't say goodbye to them, they went and never came back a storm came, they got caught in it, but I didn't know they were gone until the next day because they didn't find their bodies until lunch, from then on I've been absolutely terrified of storms and I hate leaving a fight without saying I love you to the person or leaving the person on good terms because of the way they left. I shake my head, I look up and see everyone looking at me, and by everyone I mean Ry, Ross, Gus, Riker, Ratliff, Mark and the Lynch's grandpa.
