(continued from last chapter) "What is it Annie?" He looked at me with worried eyes. I take a deep breathe. "Hayden, after I tell you this, do you promise me you won't look at me any differently?" I said looking into his glimmering green eyes.
"I promise." He said. "Okay. Hayden, do you remember that person last night asking you if Julianna Peterson lived there?" I start off. "Yeah..." he says. "I'm Julianna Peterson." I say with no emotion.
"How? You're Julianna LeBlanc?" He says confused. "Hayden, I'm a foster child. Or I was a foster child. When I was four, my dad killed my mom right in front of me. After my dad went to jail, I went to the foster care system. A couple weeks ago, the LeBlancs adopted me. I didn't want anyone knowing because, well, I thought you guys wouldn't like me." I said.
Wow that felt good getting that off my chest. Hayden looked at me with an open mouth. "Annie, that who you are. You shouldn't have hid that from me." He said sadly. "I know, I'm sorry." I said looking down. "I, I need sometime." He said walking away. I sighed and looked back down at the city lights. What have I done?
I went to go find Caleb so we can go home early. I looked at the bar, dance floor, hallways, and he's nowhere to be found. So I go find Kenzie who was talking to Johnny. "Hey, can I steal Kenzie for a second?" I said to Johnny. He smiled and nodded. I took Kenzie away from the loud music.
"What's up Annie?" Kenzie said. I couldn't get word out of my mouth. So I just cried. Kenzie immediately hugged me. "There there, shhh." Kenzie said hugging me. "I-I messed u-up." I said sobbing. "What do you mean?" Kenzie asked.
I explained everything to her. Me telling Hayden about being a foster child. "Annie, that doesn't matter. That's your old life. You're Julianna Grace LeBlanc. Not Peterson. You're perfect the way you are. Hayden's a jerk." She said. "Now, hold my hoops. I'm going to beat the living bejesus out of him!" She said. I laughed and hugged her
Kenzie and I decided to go to her house for the rest of the night. I already called my mom and told her that I was sleeping over at Kenzie's. We reached Kenzie's house and we jogged upstairs. Kenzie gave me some of her extra clothes and I changed into them.
"Okay. Let's watch Netflix while eating ice cream. Sounds good?" She asked. I nodded and smiled. "Be right back!" She said bolting out of the room. I decided to post a Instagram post.

I looked at all the comments I sighed and tossed my phone on the other side of Kenzie's bed. Kenzie walks in with two tubs of ice cream and two spoons. She hands me the mint chocolate chip one and she takes the salted carmel one.
"Alrighty, which movie?" Kenzie asks opening her laptop. "Hmm, what about... the notebook?" I suggest. She nods and we watch that. We cry at the movie and share some good laughs. Kenzie's the type of person you want to be friends with forever.
But I really thought Hayden would've understood ---- Hey guys! I'm thinking of add quotes to each chapter. What do you think?
