It was just another cold February morning of my junior year in high shool: unimportant, tiresome, and full of assignments and rehearsals, until my then-boyfriend asked me if I wanted to go on a little adventure that night with him and a couple of his friends.
"What exactly do you have in mind?" At this point, he had asked me several times to go driving on O street in Lincoln and watch all the street racers, or to go to this haunted place on the way to Nebraska City.. I wasn't too fond of that idea.
"Oh, well.. Ya know..." He stumbled.
"I'm waiting," I replied playfully.
"See, there's this place by Nebraska City..."
"No! How many times have I told you that I am deathly afraid of that stuff!"
"I know, but I really want you to come with.. Nothing bad's has ever happened when I've gone with Kendel."
"Yah, but every time you go with Sam, you bring back stories about how she can't ever remember anything, or how she completely loses control of herself!"
"Alright, I guess we'll just have to go without you."
"Don't really tell me you're going back..."
"Yeah, I'm going back! Why else would I have invited you to go?"
"Because every time you go, I have to worry that everybody in that car isn't going to make it back."
"You don't have to worry," he said softly. "I'll snapchat you when were back in town."
I wanted to tell him to call, but I knew I couldn't risk my parents being woken up by the ringing- he would usually get back from the hills between midnight and 2.
"Alright," I agreed reluctantly. I knew he would go no matter what I had to say, and I didn't want to fight over it.
Later that day, his brother stopped me in the hall during the passing bell.
"Hey! Did Santos catch you?" He said.
"Yeah," I said unenthusiastically.
"You don't seem too thrilled," he said. He knew how much I hated that his brother went so often to that damned place.
"Teo, you know why I don't wanna go."
"Yah, I know. Demons and whatnot. I'll catch you later, I still have to get downstairs."
"See ya, bro." I replied.
The rest of that day I had a terrible feeling in my gut.. But I'd never imagined what was to come..
