Forbidden Love

Chapter 23

I paced uneasily up and down the corridor waiting for a sighting of Robert, or hopefully Scarlett. At this rate I would probably wear a hole in the carpet... I squeezed my mobile in my hand. Right I've waited long enough! I punched Roberts phone number into my phone and called. Don't you just hate it when you're so desperate to get through to someone that the sound of the phone ringing makes you want to do something reckless? Come on Robert, come on. By this point I found myself jumping on the spot. But yet again, for the 5th time I had gotten straight to answer phone. I growled and texted him instead; IT'S MOLLY! WHERE ARE U?? HAVE U FOUND HER YET? TEXT ME BACK ASAP!!!!!!!!'

Almost as soon as I'd put the phone back in my pocket it vibrated. I grabbed it and looked at the message. Robert: Hey Mollie, no sign of her yet can you do me a favour?' Mollie? It's Molly! I shook my head and typed back furiously. 'Molly: Yes! what is it??'

'Robert: I need Scarlett's home address right now! As quick as you can pls!' I didn't stop to ask why, I bounded back into my dorm and rummaged through my case like a madwoman on meth. I tore out every pair of jeans I had neatly folded up. Where is it? Scar had given me a piece of paper with all her details on it when we had spoken about the summer term when I was planning to go back home and so was she apparently. I was getting desperate now... A mountain sized mound of clothes was building up behind me. Oh how typical. The brown piece of paper lay right at the bottom of the case. I brought out my mobile and hastily typed the address to Robert. Okay sent. I was breathless and laid back against my clothes. So no thank you? No word to say he'd received my text? It had been 10 minutes. I called him again but was immediately cut off... What the heck?! I tried again and again until it went straight through to voicemail, no ring no nothing. Something strange is happening here...
