BRENDAN’S P.O.V.
I speed down the quiet road, a few miles later a river runs up on the right side of the car.
I am down at a small creek that Ann and I would play in as kids and as we grew up we would go here and clear our minds and talk together. It’s our safe haven. Our cloud 9.
It doesn’t feel right being here without her but this is the only place I know I will be alone and have some time to sort out my overflowing thoughts.
I drive up on the side of the road and step out of the car.
It is now dark, night, and it looks like a storm may be coming in. When I begin to walk through the trees and down onto the rocks I feel the brisk wind go straight through my jacket. I shiver.
If Ann were here I would hug here to keep warm, well mostly to keep her warm but….
I have been having thoughts like this about Ann for the whole year but I know if we went out or even talked about it that it would ruin the friendship we have, the one that slowly seems to be slipping away every time Chad pops up.
I don’t mind the guy as much knowing that he is trying to take care of her and he seems to love her but I can’t help but be incredibly jealous. I used Jenna as a distraction from Ann and all I get is a whole lot of shit for it and Chad.
I actually was planning on asking her to the dance but the day I was going to I saw Chad sucking her face off in the middle of the crowded hallway. I was crushed. I even had flowers in my locker and had a back-up plan if she wasn’t into saying we would be going as “just friends”.
I wonder if I should just ask Jenna to the dance, she’s going to reject everyone besides me and Chad: Chad because she likes him, me because she hates Ann.
But Chad is already taken so I guess me. I just don’t want to go without a date, but I want to be there so Chad doesn’t do anything stupid.
Some would say I’m like Ann’s guardian angel, others *cough cough Krista* would say I am a stalker. But I just want to protect her from the asshole of a jock.
. . .
I find the usual rock we sit on, just big enough for two and sit down. I watch the creek run rapidly over the rocks and I feel it run into the tips of my shoes.
I should probably leave, there is obviously a storm coming judging by the massive clouds in the sky. But I just got here and I don’t want to leave.
The wind rustles through my hair and I hear the trees sway and creak.
I stand up right as a branch flies down missing me by a few feet.
I run under the trees and up the hill to my car.
Another crack, a whole tree falls feet in front of where I am running and I jump over it quickly.
The wind sweeps up under me and I feel the rain start to pelt at my skin. I pull my hood over my head but the wind knocks it off immediately, no good.
I finally get to my car and jump in. I start the car and make a fast U-Turn to get back onto the road.
Another crack, right where the car was parked only seconds ago a tree now lies.
These trees seem to be very flimsy; they are falling out of the sky as frequently as the pouring rain that now slams down on the roof of my car.
I drive quickly down the curvy road, now covered in a small layer of water.
I can see the creek filling up quickly as it begins to flood the road. I have to get out of here if I don’t want to get stuck.
Another crack, it sounds like it is behind me so I pick up the speed and turn a sharp corner. It wasn’t behind me.
I can see the tree flying down right as it hits the car, right on the roof.
The roof bends in, I feel the pressure hit my head “Oh God…” I let out quietly.
I hear my phone buzz on the passenger seat, I see a silly face of Ann show up and when I try to reach for my phone, I can't, my body won't move. "Ann!!! Help me Ann.” I begin to yell.
“Someone help me..” I say and my head begins to hurt from the impact.
I throw up all over my lap “Shit” I say.
My head flies forward and hits the steering wheel. Dark. I’m out.
ANN’S P.O.V.
Chad is holding my hand, rubbing it with his thumb. He thinks I am asleep but I am still partially awake.
I wonder where Brendan went. I kind of wish he would come back. I need to talk to him sooner or later but he probably just went home.
i shouldn't have snapped at him like that, he has always been good to me and it wasn't really even his fault, it was just an accident.
"Chad..?" I open my eyes slowly. He looks up at me.
"Yes?"
"Can I have my phone? I need to call Brendan." I ask softly.
He reaches into my small bag and he pulls my phone out.
I call Brendan and here the never ending ring on the other end. Voicemail.
I hang up and look at Chad "At least he isn't ignoring me." I say with a weak smile.
I call again. It doesn't ring at all. Did he turn off his phone? I don't think he would. Then I hear an automated voice: The phone number you called is no longer able to recieve calls. To try-
I cut it off, no longer able to recieve calls? That means he must have broken his phone or something. But why would he do that?
I am begining to get worried and I look to Chad who is looking at me.
"What he still didn't pick up?" he asks.
"No his phone is like broken or something" I say, confused myself ."I'm worried about him, I wonder what happened." I say and look down at the white sheets on my lap.
"I am sure he is fine and it was just a glitch or something." he tries to assure me.
It isn't working, I call Brendan again and the same message comes up.
I want to find him but I don't even know if I am allowed to leave.
"When am I allowed to leave?" I ask Chad while I am still looking down at the white of the sheets.
"Um I don't know? Why would you need to leave?" he asks confused. Realization flashes through his beautiful eyes. "No no no. You are not going out there in that storm for Brendan. He is probably fine." He dismisses the idea completely.
I need to find Brendan. Now. I need to.
