Chapter 3
Gumbled whispers passed between the group, barely audible to me. I stayed crouched behind the bush as the mysterious boy told. Footsteps passed by my hiding spot and slowly become distant.
" Come out" The irish voice spoke.
I stood up and brushed of my sweat pants. "What is going on?" I yelled at him, as He ran a hand through his dirty blonde hair and sighed.
" Its kind of hard to explain but..," he paused and faced the lake," When you were walking here..were you drawn here for a reason that your not sure of?"
I tilted my head " Yeah..how..how did you know that?"
" I came here for the same reason. My leaders told me about a girl..and something about." He stopped abruptly. " Nevermind.. i can't tell you.. but im pretty sure. That maybe, just maybe you're the girl"
While backtracking, my mind spun with so many questions: What does he mean? Why can't he tell me? What the absolute fuck is going on? How did his 'Leaders' know? And who are his leaders?
"Someone has got to be punking me right now."
I searched around for some sort of cool camera,but sadly found nothing. His soft chuckles filled my ears. While turning to face him shooting daggers in his direction .
"Why is this funny to you?!! Im so confused and lost about everything, now suddenly im supposed to believe that your what... like my so called soulmate or something?!"
I flew my hands up in mock surrender and flipped him off. " Just forget it. Don't bother explaining i'm going home."
I took off down the path, ignoring his pointless shouts trying to convince me to come back.
============At School===========
I stumbled throughout the hallway clutching my books to my chest. Nico still hasn't shown up to school, and i'm really worried. While walking into the girl's restroom, I decide i'm going to skip my last period and hang here. Hopefully nobody notices, I just really need some time to think about everything thats going on. All day people have given me getting rude, strange, and odd looks, as if I wasn't already a total outcast. I tuck myself in a far corner, so that if anyone walks in they wont be able to see me. My backpack falls over as I bring my knees up to my chest, and lay my head on them.
What seems about 20 minutes later someone taps on my shoulder. As I look up to discover it is the blondie I had yelled at the previous night.
" What are you doing here?" I whisper//yelled as I stood up.
He looked at me with deep, and earnest eyes before he replied.
" Please just come with me, I can explain..but..we have to talk somewhere private." He looked around as if someone was watching.
"What makes you think im going to trust you, let alone leave with you?" There goes my stubborn self.
" Please, Azalea just let me explain for one goddamn minute"
"How do you know my name" I snapped.
" If you would come with me I could tell you."
"Fine." I grumbled while gathering my things, and texting my mom that I would be at a friend's house, but it's not like she'll notice im gone. She never does.
