Just Another Bad Boy Story

Chapter nineteen: A small progress

(Aiden’s P.O.V)

I drove as fast as possible, and was thankful for the absent cops. The only thing on my mind right now was Haley, and to find her before that Carter guy could hurt her. I didn’t know him and what he is capable of but Haley was scared of him. I could see that in her eyes, this Monday, and I bet it was because of him that she freaked out on the game yesterday. I was so mad right now, on so many people and if I get hold of Carter I swear he will feel the rage of every person that’s making me upset. And one thing that is surprising is that I’m really angry with Haley. I can’t believe that after yesterday, she goes on a date with another guy. And that guy happens to be the friend of the jerk who broke her heart. What does she think she will get out of that? Getting Mason back or what? Cause the last time I checked she hated the guy more than anything. I drive into my driveway and stop the car. I open the door and run towards my house and unlock the door.

 “Haley! Stokes are you here?” I yelled, but she didn’t respond. I look around but I didn’t see any of her shoes or her bag. Damn it, maybe she was home since I wasn’t here. I turned back and locked the door and ran back to my car. I drove away in full speed to her house.

When I got there Haley wasn’t there, and it was a woman that I didn’t recognize that had opened the door. I guess that must have been one of the people who was supposed to stay with Mrs. Stokes. Now I was back home, trying to figure out where Haley could have gone. I was about to hit the door when the phone rang. I let out a sigh and walk into the kitchen to pick up the phone.

 “Walden” I answered a bit stressed.

 “Hi, Aiden how are you” My mom asked and I took a seat in one of the chairs in the kitchen.

 “Hey mom, I’m fine, how about you? Is the chemo working?” I asked and let go of the Haley-subject for a while.

 “Yeah, I’m starting to feel the side effects of the treatment now but the doctors says that it’s good because it means it works” She said and I got a bit curious about the side effects.

 “What are the side effects?” I questioned and looked out the window.

 “Nausea, losing hair and feeling tired. But don’t worry the doctors says that the tumor is already smaller. So I will be home soon” And I could hear mom smile, I’m guessing she really misses her house.

 “I wish I could take the side effects instead of you” I said and a tear made it’s way out of my eyes.

 “You have become such a great kid Aiden, but I don’t want you to go through this” She said and I whipped away my tear.

 “I miss you mom” I whispered and I could hear her cry.

 “I miss you too, kiddo” And it made me smile.

 “Don’t call me that” I said and mom laughed.

 “I’m gonna let you go and do what ever you were going to when I called. I have to call Nathan as well. I love you Aiden, I’ll see you soon”

 “I love you too mom” I said and hung up. I put the phone on the counter and put my head in my hands. I took a deep breath before I got out of my seat and walked out to my car. I started the engine and started to drive around looking for Haley. I had no idea where she was, and I didn’t know where to start looking. I made a fast decision to drive to the beach but she wasn’t there. And so it went on, I was out looking for her for about two hours without any success. I drove back to my house and threw myself in one of the couches. I picked up my phone and tried to call Haley, but she didn’t pick up. The signal didn’t even went through, so I guess she turned it off. Clever girl. I thought to myself. I threw my phone in the couch and put my hands behind my head. What was I supposed to do now? The anger start to rise on the thought of Haley and some another guy. My phone started to vibrate and I picked it up quickly, believing it was Haley.
