Chris Chamber's Fanfic-"Chamber's Kid"

Chapter 7

Once class was over you said goodbye to Chris and headed to your locker. You grabbed your bag and walked out onto the steps in front of the school to wait for your mom to pick you up like she said. Kids started to clear out of the school quickly and before you knew it, you were the last one there. You sat and waited for a good 30 minutes all alone. You debated on just walking home but decided to wait it out since you knew your mom was usually late, plus it was a beautiful day out. After about another 15 minutes, you started to hear footsteps coming from the usually quiet hallway. You turned around to see a group of boys walk out the door and in that group you noticed Chris. As he made his way down the steps, he noticed you too.

"What are you doing here?" He asked, surprised to see you, as he took a seat on the step. 

"I've been waiting for my mom to pick me up but she hasn't shown up yet." You replied. 

"Yeah well, I just got out of detention. But, hey, I'm about to head out to a special place of mine, wanna come?" He asked. "I don't wanna leave you waiting out here all alone. You've been waiting long enough anyhow... Come on, it'll be fun." He added. 

"Well, I guess so." You replied, thinking that anything could beat sitting out here. 

"Great, let's go." He replied enthusiastically as you both got up. He lead you through town until you you reached your destination. "Here it is." He said as he pointed up to a little treehouse above.

He helped you get in through the tall ladder and you took a seat in the treehouse. Inside of it were some benches and a movable mini table with a deck of cards, a magazine, and a pack of cigarettes on it. On the walls there were lots and lots of pictures. Most of them were of Chris and 3 other boys along with some newspaper clippings.
