You Belong With Me

Chapter 5

Bruno's POV

*8 Months Later*

These past months have been extremely hard. It seems like the whole town has been talking about Jessica gone missing. It's on every news and radio station. I've pushed back the time I was suppose to go to LA to start my music career, to look for her. In about a week I'm going to be moving to LA to start. My cell phone started to ring. I grab it and pick it up.

"Hello." I answer.

"Bruno! It's Molly. How have you been?"

Molly is a big sweetheart. I've know her sense junior year in highschool. She always gave me great advice when it came to anything.

"Okay," I said sadly,"what about you?" I asked.

"Okay? You don't seem okay. Do you want to hang out today and we can talk about what ever is bothering you." Molly suggested.

"I would love that." I smile.

"Perfect. Meet me at the coffee shop by the park around 9am." She says.

"Will do."

We hang up and I jump out of bed. For some reason, I felt extremely happy on the inside. I've haven't felt this way in a long time. I get ready putting on my red and black checkered flannel. As I put on my black jeans, I reach over for my black and white converse. I put on a gray beanie over my messy hair. Once I pick up my keys from the black counter top, I spray some cologne on myself. Walking down the stairs quickly, I reach for the handle on the door.

"Bruno, where are you going?" My mom asked.

"I'm going out with a friend. Catch up on things." I said.

"Friend? Whose this friend?" She asked.

"A girl."

A huge smile went on her face. "They found Jessica?!" She yelled. "Is that who you are going with?"

I lowered my head upset. "No. Not yet." I answer.

My mom gives me a tight hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"She's out there, Bruno. Go with your friend." My mom pats my back, and walks to the kitchen.

I walk out to the car, and get in. Opening the glove department, I take out the picture of Jessica. I give it a huge kiss, and put it back in.

"Love you baby." I said.

As I drive to go meet Molly, my heart feels like it's racing. I never really liked Molly in any type of way, so it's weird that I'm having these feelings. Once I got to the coffee shop, Molly was already sitting inside. I parked my car, and walked inside. The coffee shop was small yet cozy. It smelled like fresh coffee. The walls were painted a nice cream color with a brown stripe going along the wall.

"Bruno." Molly calls to me.

She stands up and gives me a hug. I couldn't help but smile.

"How are you doing?" I asked.

She smelled very florally. Her hair was long and a chocolate brown. Her skin tone was light and her eyes were a carmel color. She was a beautiful girl. Molly was about a couple inches shorter then me.

"I'm doing great. So whats up with you?" We take our seats on the small white chairs.

"I've been really depressed lately." I explain.

"Why is that?" She asked, taking a drink from her coffee.

"Well. It was the day we graduated high school. My girlfriend Jessica and I went to Miguel's house party. It was to crazy and I didn't want Jessica around that so we were about to leave. When we were outside I was hit in the head with something heavy so I passed out. When I woke up I was in the hospital and was told Jessica went missing. Ever sense that day Molly, my heart was been broken." I explain.
