You again ~Cole Sprouse

Chapter 3

1:34 am
New York City

Chelsea's POV

After driving around, I drove back to my house. I parked the car farther down the road. The house was dark, everyone was asleep. I ran back to the house. I have two windows. One above the garage and one on the side of the house.

There's a huge tree near the side window. Using that I climbed up onto it. I stepped on the window ledge and peeled the window open slowly. Stepping in and not making a noise, I used the moon light to grab clothes out of my closet.

I put them in a duffel bag I had. I put clothes and shoes into the bag. I then crossed my room to the dresser. My eyes moved across the desk to where the picture of my mom is. I took it and put it on top. I quietly tip toed down the stairs. I loaded as much as I could. Then I headed out.

I got into the car and pulled out. I didn't know where I was driving. My mind was on many different places. Tears were rolling down my cheeks. The landed on the corner of my mouth. The salty taste taking over my mouth. I don't know how long I was driving and I don't know what happened.

I've been driving all night. I pulled into a wal mart. I walked into the building and headed for the bathrooms. When I looked in the mirror I saw a mess. My hair was terrible and I had bags under my eyes.

I pulled my hair out of the hair tie trying to cover my mess of a face. I walked out and looked around for a bit.
"Hey do you work here?" I heard a voice say. I turned around to see the most attractive blonde boy I have ever seen.

He was taller than me. He had a nice jawline. His hair was pushed back at the top. He was wearing khaki pants and a old green jacket. He was holding an item in his hand. When I looked into his eyes, I swore I've seen them before.

He looked at me and his eyebrows raised.
"No sorry. No I don't work here" I said nervously looking down at my feet.
"Cole did you figure it out?" An identical boy came around the corner and walked up to him. Cole? I looked at them and it all came back to me. The boy walked up and looked down at me.

"Oh my god..." I started backing up. I grabbed at my hair. "Are you okay?" One of the boys asked. I didn't look. I didn't want to look. It was the Sprouse twins. The ones I've grown up with.

"You look really familiar do I know you?" This time I looked up. Dylan was the one who said it. I kept backing up until I hit a shelf. "Are you a fan? You look really pale." Cole said taking a step towards me. That's when the courage kicked in.

"You... You.. You bitch!" I screamed. "Both of you! You left me! You left me alone with HER! Now I'm homeless!" Tears started flowing more freely now. "Excuse me? We don't know what you're taking about.." Dylan said chuckling and look at his brother.

"I-It's Chelsea." I stuttered. I looked up at them. Their faces changed. "Chelsea? Bryant?" Cole asked touching my cheek.

I slapped his hand away. "Yes! The one you guys left!" I yelled. "I shouldn't have come here." I quickly walked away. "Chelsea wait!" One of them called out. I turning down an isle not looking up but smashing into someone's chest. I fell backward.
"Excuse me." I said quietly.

"No." I looked up to see Cole blocking me. "Chelsea talk to us." Dylan said coming up behind us. "Go live your dumb famous lives and leave me the fuck alone." I snapped. I tried to walk past Cole but he grabbed my bicep and pulled me back.

"Look Chelsea I'm sorry. We both are. I know we left you and we shouldn't have. Please forgive us." Dylan said. I turned towards him. "Do you understand what I went through when my best friends left me?" I said through tears.

"We came back for you, but when we went to your house you weren't there. Your mom wasn't there either. There were random people there!" Cole said. "If you ever staying in contact with me you would understand where I went." I answered quietly.

"We figured you went to live with your dad, but where is your mom? Why wasn't she there." Dylan asked lifting my chin up. "Leave her out of this. You don't need to know, you're just going to leave again." I said turning away from Dylan's hand.

"We aren't going anywhere." Cole said sharply. "You might not be, but I am." I walked quickly away. I headed to the check out counter.

"How much is a map?" I asked looking at the pale woman. "Want us to drive you somewhere?" Dylan asked as him and Cole came next to me.

"Guys leave me alone." I snapped looking at them. "You tell me you're going to be around. When I know you aren't. You missed almost every part of my life you understand that right? You don't know what happened to my mom, you don't know how I got here and you don't know any part about my life and what I've been through. So please. Leave me alone."

The check clerk looked at me strangely.
"Uhhh, 95 cents please." She said awkwardly. I reached in my front pockets to try and find some loose change when a dollar dropped down in front of me. "Keep the change" Cole said winking at the clerk.

"No do not take that." I said pushing the dollar back towards Cole. I started to count the change that was in my pocket. Not enough. Of course.

"Not enough? Bummer. Want this dollar now?" Cole said smirking down towards me. "Can you get your head out of your ass? I'm. Not. Friends. With. You." I said. "Never mind, sorry for wasting your time." I turned away from the clerk and headed for the door.

"Chelsea wait please." Dylan said. "Fuck you" I flicked him off as I got into my car. I leaned my head against the head rest and closed my eyes. There was a knocking on the window. I looked to see Cole standing there holding the map.

I turned on the car, and quickly pulled out. I looked through the rear view mirror to see them both look sad. The map was now on the ground. There was a weird feeling. I shouldn't have left. I really wanted to go back, but I didn't.
