I wish I loved her

39. Finding Kristine

I touched the space next to me and realized Kristine wasn't here. Suddenly, I remembered last night. I sat and looked at the others. Nathan and Liezel were still sleeping, they were hugging each other. I can't find Irish and Matt. I went to the rooftop and I found them there. I sat with them. "Do you know where Kristine is?" Irish asked me. "I don't know, I don't care if she's missing." I said to them, grabbing a rootbeer. Matt went to grab two cans. "We need to find her, dude. Just because she has a crush on you and you don't like her, we should find her. Her mom might ask us where she is and all this will be your fault because you planned this sleep over." He said to me. "Fine, let's wake up the two lovebirds and find her." I said to them. We went to the attic and woke the lovebirds. I told them that Kristine can't be found. We searched around the house and still can't be found. "What if she left something to Chris?" Irish suggested. "Yeah, Chris is close with her, remember?" Liezel said to me. We went to Chris' room. I knocked the door. "Chris?" I called. I opened the door and he was playing with his panda plushy and a Rilakkuma plushy. "Where'd you get that plushy, Chris?" I asked him. "From Kristie! She gave it to me. She said that she went home already. She made some pasta for you, it's in the microwave." He said to us. "When did she tell you this?" Nathan asked him. "In the middle of the night. Her face was full of tears so I wiped them with a napkin. I gave her my panda napkin since that's what I got from my closet. What happened last night, big brother?" He asked me. "We got into a fight, Chris. I won't be talking to her." I said to him. "Why did you got into a fight?" He asked me again. "It's best not to know, Chris." I said to him. "Okay." His face was sad. "Let's eat breakfast, Chris." I said to him and his face filled with joy. He loves food. "Problem solved." I said to them. We went downstairs. I grabbed the pasta from the microwave. We ate breakfast and Chris went to the fridge to get something. "What's that, Chris?" Matt asked him. "It's apple pie. Kristie baked it for me. She knew apple's my favorite." He said, his eyes filled with joy. He placed it in the table and we ate it. It was still good even though it's cold. "I like Kristie but too bad she won't be hanging out with big brother anymore." He said and became sad. "Don't worry Chris. She might visit you." Nathan said to him. He narrowed his eyes at me. I finished eating and said to them,"Just put your dishes at the sink, I'll wash them later. Text your parents that you'll be coming early , sleep over's done." I told them and went to the attic and fixed our things. I sat in the rooftop and drank all the rootbeer. I saw them all in their pjs and walked away. "I need some beer." I muttered to myself. I gathered some money and rode my bike to the nearest convenience store and bought 12 beers. I drank it and I fell asleep at the rooftop.
