We Go Missing

Chaper One

My name is Jayle. You probably know who i am if you live in Spring Road. It's a small town in California just off the coast of the Sacramento River. Today was a good day even tho at the end i got grounded but i'll never forget this day.

"Jayle!" I hear mom call from the kitchen. I keep my head buried under the pillow. "Jayle!" She calls again. I take my head out from under the pillow and sit up in my bed. "I'm getting ready!" I yell. I walk to my closet and take out my gray shirt and my leggings. I grab socks from my bin and get my blue converse and throw them on the floor. I jump into my leggings and throw my shirt on. I run to my bathroom and brush my teeth. I quickly grabbed a hair tie and put my hair in a ponytail and slipped my black stretchy headband on. I sat on my bed and put on my socks and coverse. I put all my books in my book bag and leave the room. I throw my book bag on and open the door. "Bye mom" I say to her as I leave. "Wait! Aren't you going to eat?" She asked. "No I'll eat at school, I'm gonna be late! Bye" I say and leave.

I start walking down the hill and stop at Sophie's house. I look down at my phone and start to text her.

Jayle: Hey I'm outside your house
Sophie: K I'm coming.
Jayle: ok hurry!!!

1 minute later I see her running out the door. "Hey!" I say. "Hi" she says. We start to walk down the hill and talk about what we did over the weekend. "That's so cool!" I say after she told me that she went bungee jumping. "Yeah, what'd you do" she asked. "Well it's nothing compared to what you did but I went to Gremmy Park with Jana and we saw Sam" I said as I blushed. "Really! That's cool too" she said in a low voice. "What's wrong?" I asked. She started to slow down and then eventually stopped walking. "Sophie... What's going on?" I asked sternly. "I texted Sam over the weekend and he told me something" "Ok... What'd he say?" I asked. I was starting to get worried. "He likes Jess" she said as her face scrunched up. "Oh..." I said. I started having thoughts rush through my head. I wanted to stomp my feet and scream. I leaped off my feet and started running. I ran as fast as I could with Sophie running after me. I ran into the school through the middle school into the highschool and entered the highschool girls bathroom. There was a window inside the bathroom. When you looked out the window you could see the entrance way to the middle school. I watched students and teachers walk into the school. I saw Sam walking towards the school. I started to shout I'm fury. "SO YOU LIKE JESS, UH?" I yelled at him. He turned around and looked up. He just stood there and stared at me. "WELL DO YOU?" I yelled at him again. He didn't answer and kept staring. The bell started to ring. I stomped away from the window and ran out the bathroom and went to homeroom.

I entered Mrs. Feather's room. She was my homeroom teacher. The students were surrounded by her desk talking about what they did over the weekend. I pushed them out of the way, softly of course, and got to Mrs. Feather. "Can I be excused from homeroom? I have to go talk to someone" I asked. Mrs. Feather was the nicest teacher ever. She didn't even have to ask me who or where I was going,  she trusted me. She trusted all her students, and it was important to keep her trust. "Yeah go ahead, Jayle" she said. I walked out the class and started to walk towards Mrs. Mads's room. I saw Sam sitting by the door on his phone with Stevie (Stevie was Sam's best friend). I signaled  him with my hands to come. He turned off his phone and told Stevie he'd be back. "What's up?" he said as he came towards me. "We have to talk" I told him. We walked towards a door that said "Dressing room" on it. The door leaded to an empty room that hadn't be used since a long time. I turned the nob and the door creaked open. I look side to side to see if there was anyone coming by. I stepped into the room and pulled Sam in. "Why are we in here" he said. As the door closed I felt the walls to see if there was a light switch. I couldn't find one. "There's no light switch" I said. I was scared of the dark and didn't wanna be in this dark room. "It's fine" he said. "No it's not" I said as I was freaking out. He took my hand and held it in his. "I'm right here, you don't have to be scared." A wave of excitement and nervousness came over me. I pulled my hand away from his. I had to think about why I was really here. "Do you like Jess" I said in a low voice. "N-no" he said in a stutter. "Then why did you tell Sophie that?" I asked him. "I didn't tell Sophie that, I told her I like Jess as a friend, see?" He turned on his phone and went to the message. In one message he sent "I like Jess" and then in another message he said "as a friend" but it never sent because his connection was bad. "Oh I guess it never sent" he said. "Ohhhhh" I said in relief. "Yeah..." "Why are you worried about who like anyway?" he asked. I stayed silent. "Does someone have a crush on me?" he asked again. I continued to say silent. I was smiling so hard my cheeks were hurting. Luckily he couldn't see my face cause it was so dark. "Don't worry i like you too" I looked up at his face that I couldn't see. "You do" I said. "Yeah, I do" he said. I jumped up and gave him a hug. I put my legs around his waste and my head on his shoulder. He held me in his arms for the longest.

After that something happened.... Something better then I could ever imagine. It was amazing, incredible.... I don't even have words to describe what happened...
