Reunited

Chapter 2

  Flashback

“Your it” I scream as I run away from my sister, to find Xavier. I see him hiding behind a tree.“Gazzy, run shes coming” He grabbed my hand and we ran away. We were playing hide and tag and Christy was it. She found us, now she just had to catch us. After a few minutes of running she finally caught up to us and she tagged my shoulder. I was it.

I covered my eyes with my hands and counted as they hid. When I was done counting I screamed “Ready or not, here I come”. I looked for them for what felt like hours when my mom came out to check on us. “Where are Christy and Xavier?” She questioned. I tell her that they are hiding and that I can't find them. She looks worried as she calls there names. When no one comes she helps me look for them. We look everywhere but cant find them anywhere.

Xavier

I was waiting for Christy to tell me why she followed me. I was supposed to find the demigod at this school. They sensed a demigod here but all the satyrs were busy, so they sent me. They finally trusted me to do something alone and she was not going t ruin it.

She looked deep in thought. All of a sudden she said “Gazzy”

There was only one person who ever called me that and I haven't seen her since we were six. Could it be her? No it cant. It's just Christy messing with me. But what if..... “Callie? Is it really you?”

She was crying as she nodded her head.

“I cant believe its really you” She said. When I finally realized that this wasn't just a prank, I practically lunged at her trying to give her a hug. She hugged me right back. I buried my head in her neck whispering “I cant believe its really you” over and over again.

Callie

When we finally pulled apart the first thing I did was ask “Is Christy okay?!”

“Christy is fine” I sighed in relief. Time to get down to business.

“Where have you two been? What happened? How come you never called? Do you know that I thought you were dead?” I was practically screaming at him by now.

“Shh geez Callie do you have to be so loud?”

“You don't get to ask questions, now answer mine!”

“You won't believe me if I told you.”

“Well you are going to try!”

“Fine! We were-” He was cut off by the sound of the bell.

“We are not done talking about this, we will finish this conversation later. Right now we have to get to class, who do you have?”

“Mrs. Schultz”

“Cool! Me too, she is super nice”

“Come on lets get to class”

When we get to class, Mrs. Schultz assigned a project. We have to work in pairs and write a story about Greek mythology. Me and Gazzy are partners. He walks to my desk and so we can talk about.

“What are we going to write about?” I ask.

“We can write it about a hero” He suggests.

“Sure”

“This is going to be easy..... If we even have to do it” He says the last part under his breath. I wonder what he means. I decide to ask him.

“What do you mean by that?”

“What do I mean by what?”

“You said if we even have to do it”

“No I didn't”

“Yes you did”

“Not ah”

“Ya ha”

“Not ah”

I was about to reply when I realized that we were arguing like 5 year olds.

“Fine! You didn't say anything!”
