hayley adams
I was driving back down from the lookout, my eye's were all blurry from crying and my throat was aching. I was driving, then suddenly in the middle of the road I saw a girl.
I slammed my brakes on, making me spin my car out to the side of the road. I crashed into a tree, but luckily I wasn't hurt. I pushed my door open, pulling my self out.
I stood up and slowly walked to see where the girl was. she just stood there, looking into thin air. "excuse me?" I shouted, it was so cold that my breathe formed a mist.
she turned to me and her clothing was very little, she was in a ripped shirt and underwear. her body was shivering so I walked closer to her, "hang on one second." I said.
I ran towards my car grabbing a sweatshirt, along with my phone. I went back to here, passing her the hoodie as I called nine-one-one.
—
"what is your name?" I asked her, as I waited for them to arrive.
"m-mercedes." she said, she almost seemed scared of me.
"my names hayley, how long have you been out here? it's freezing."
"I couldn't tell you how long i've been out here,
i've lost count. I- I am sorry about your car." she frowned.
"it's okay, but what do you meant you've lost count. hours?" I asked.
"days."
—
I seen red and blue lights speeding towards us. paramedics took mercedes whilst I told the police what happened.

I arrived at my house, to see my father who was standing on the driveway. I got out of the cop car, running towards and hugged my dad so tightly. "I am so sorry." I cried.
"it's alright." he hushed me, "as long as you are safe." he thanked the police officer for driving me home then he took me inside. "do you need anything?"
"I might take a shower, take my mind of things."
"showers make you think about stuff more... before you go please tell me what happened."
"I was driving and a girl was on the road and I swerved off." I said truthfully.
"is ethan okay?"
"ethan wasn't in the car, I haven't seen him in hours." I told him. "can we talk tomorrow?" I rushed him.
"fine." he hugged me tightly and I went to the shower. I was letting the water drip through my hair, the makeup was rubbing off of my face.
I had music playing, but it was interrupted by a text message. I wrapped a towel around my body and walked to my phone.

mood.
I am coming over.

too late.... let me in.
•••
I walked to my window and saw ethan standing on the grass, "let me in hayley." he said.
"go choke on a clitoris ethan." I yelled and slammed my window shut. I sat on my bed, ignoring him until my actual door opened.
I looked up and looked back down. "please, can I come in." he begged.
"give me one good reason why I should let you in my room." I rolled my eyes.
"because you love me." he smiled.
"you wish, don't flatter yourself."
"I only have one wish and that is for you to let me come in."
"fine." I gave in and he walked in, I walked towards the bathroom, shutting the door and getting dressed.
I walked back out to see him laying on my bed "come here." he said. I just looked at him, "hayley." he said.
I gave in and walked over, I rested my head on his chest and he hugged me, "i'm so glad you didn't get hurt, i'm sorry for not being there." he said.
"it's fine." I said, he began playing with my hair and I shut my eyes, I loved it when we would just chill in our rooms and just sit there together even when I was meant to be mad.
"hayley?"
"mhm."
"why do you hate erin?" he asked.
I sat up and twisted my body to look at him, he let go of my hair. "I don't actually hate her, I just-"
"don't like her?" he cut me off.
"yeah." mumbled.
"why can't my best friend and my girlfriend get along... out of all people in the world." he laughed slightly, but I knew it hurt him, which I hated.
"maybe one of us isn't meant to be in the picture." I shrugged.
"you have been my best friend since we were three years old, we used to take bubble baths together hayley. you've been there for literally as long as I can remember- other than gray and cam."
"maybe it's erin then."
"I really, really like her though."
"I don't know what i'm saying."
"i'm sleeping over." ethan said. "I asked your dad and he said it's okay because you're probably shaken up."
ethan laid down properly, putting his arm over me and interlocking his fingers with mine.
I pulled his hand up by my face and kissed his knuckles. "i'm sleepy, so goodnight." I whispered.
"wait." he sat up and I turned slightly to look at him, he put his hand on my cheek and leaned down to kiss me and all I did was kiss him back.
I put my hands on his shoulders and pushed him away, "ethan what are you doing?" I asked.
"hayley i'm so sorry, I don't know what I was thinking." he said. "I guess part of me always wanted to kiss you, I just needed to know if you were who I wanted- and I didn't feel anything so I guess not. can we just go to sleep and forgot I just did that."
"yeah, let's do that." I said laying down and moving over to the other edge, he stayed on the opposite side.
I just laid there with my eyes wide open, my best friend just kissed me... and I think I liked it.
