I sneak out of the house and begin walking to the park. It's dark and they're not many cars. I have my phone close to me just in case i need to call Adam to come get me because I'm scared. I enter the park and I see him. I see him under the light with a black jacket, dark jeans and high tops on.

I walk up to him nervously

" Hey Sam how are you"

" I'm great how are you?" I get goosebumps under my coat

" I'm great... so... I wanted to talk to you about something"

" Yeah what's up?" My eyes wander. Looking around the park, nobody is really here.

" Okay so Sam I wanted to say that I want to see you more often because I li-"

I cut him off

"Adam hold on. Today is my first day here in Louisiana. I still need to get used to this place"

" Right... Right yeah I understand. Well I'll see you later"

He turns around and leaves. I'm alone now. He seems like he was really upset about me turning him down. I begin to walk back to my house still scared that someone might jump out and attack me. I speed walk. I hear a noise behind me. I run, I sprint as fast as possible. I hear the person behind me run too. I drop my little cube that helps me with my anxiety. I just run not even bothering to pick it up. I'm back home and safe.

It's Adam

Sorry

2 days later

I'm back at school but Adam hasn't talked to me since, I want to talk to him, I like him. A lot. But I cant admit it because I'm scared. I see him. He's walking up to me.

" Hey Sam"

" Hi Adam" I say with my palms getting sweaty

He continues to talk but my eyes go to his hands.

He's messing with something in his hand. A cube. My cube. Was he following me while I was walking home from the park?
