The Forsaken

Chapter 36: Explaining

[Heaven's POV]

Apollo and I walk out of  'Lemon', the supermarket and walk to a nearby bench. We sit down and start talking again.

"So Heaven, do you have a boyfriend yet?" Apollo asked with a grin.

"No." I simply replied.

"Seriously?" Apollo asked.

"Yeah." I replied.

"That's a let down." Apollo sighed.

"What about you?" I asked.

"Still single." Apollo replied.

"What do you works as?" I asked.

"A DJ. What do you work as?" Apollo asked.

"Waitress." I replied.

I hear my phone make a sound and I pull it out my pocket. I notice I have a text from Shad.

'Oh no. He must be on his way home.' I thought.

I put my phone in my pocket and look at Apollo.

"I'm sorry Apollo but I have to get going." I said.

"Ok. Can I have your number so I can call you later?" Apollo asked.

"Sure." I said.

I give Apollo my number while she gives me her number.

"Bye." I said.

"Catch ya later." Apollo said.

I stand up and run back to Shad's apartment.

[Shad's POV]

I run into the park and look around. I spot a party going on around the giant tree and I also spot Jade. I run up to Jade but get stopped by a bouncer.

"You can't come in here." The bouncer said.

"Yeah, I know that but I need to talk to my friend, Jade. She's the girl with pink hair." I pointed at Jade.

The bouncer stares at me for a moment and sighs.

"I'll go get her for you." The bouncer said.

"Thanks." I said.

The bouncer walks into the party and gets Jade.

Jade turns to me and smiles. She runs up to me and hugs me.

"I need to tell you something." I said.

"And I need to ask you something." Jade said.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Heaven ran away a few days ago because Mason yelled at her and called her a little bitch and now we can't find her but I just found her sketchbook sitting on the grass so she had to be here. Anyways, I want to know if you have seen Heaven?" Jade explained.

'I wanted to tell you that Heaven has been staying with me for the past few days. She never told me why but she begged me not to call you or Ryan. I came out here looking for Heaven because I told her not to leave my apartment but she left." I explained.

"Wait? Heaven has been with you? Is she okay? Can I see her?" Jade asked.

"Yes, yes and yes." I replied to all of her questions.

"Thank you so much, Shad." Jade said as he hugs me.

"Why are you thanking me?" I asked.

"For telling that you have Heaven." Jade replied as she pulls away from the hug.

"Well, Heaven didn't want me to call you at first and I listened to her but now I can't find her and I need your help." I said.

"Ok, I know one place Heaven likes to go when she's feeling sad or mad so we can go there first." Jade said.

"Ok, come one." I said.

"Wait, I need to do something really quick." Jade said.

"Ok but hurry up." I said.

Jade nods and runs over to some guy then she begins to talk to the man then comes running back to me.

"Let's go." Jade said.

I nod as Jade grabs my hand and begins running to wherever Heaven could be.

We run out of the park and take a sharp turn but Jade crashes into someone bringing me down with them.

I fall on the ground next to Jade and the person then I stand up. I look at Jade and notice she crashed into a girl with waist length bright red hair and black eyes.

I help Jade and the redhead up.

"Sorry for crashing into you." Jade said.

"It's fine. It happens to the best of us." The redhead said with a smile.

"Excuse me but have you seen a girl around here with short black hair and red eyes?" I asked.

"Are you talking about Heaven?" The redhead asked.

"Yes! We are her friends and we are looking for her." Jade said.

"Oh, she just left about three minutes ago. I saw her running in the direction of those apartment buildings." The redhead said.

"She must have went back to my apartment." I said.

"Thank you so much." Jade said.

Jade grabs my hand again and begins running to the apartment buildings.
