The New Guy

Mini Vacation

I looked around for a piece of paper and pen.

Colby, Jake, and Adrian,

I'm sorry to leave you guys like this, so sudden. But I must. Just know I love you all, and hopefully will be back soon. The bills are on auto pay, and there's a food-money jar. DON'T STARVE!! Extra keys under the mat, and Colby, get the guys signed up for their classes! Don't try to find me. I know you will try, but all I ask is that if you see me, don't say anything. 

                                                                                                              XOXO, Chelsea

Setting the note in place of me in my bed, I quickly unlocked my door, and climbed out the tree outside my window. 

I head Colby calling my name, then the boys' names, to come upstairs.

Sliding in my seat, I started my car, and kept the headlights off as I drove away.

My phone rang.

Colby.

I didn't answer.

Then, again.

Jake.

Once again, I didn't answer.

Then, once more.

Adrian.

But, for a second, I picked up.

"No."

I hung up.

They didn't call anymore, and for hours, I drove, away from the place I called home.

 After about 8 hours or so, it was about 4:30 in the morning, and I got off the freeway.

I found a small motel 6, and pulled in.

Checking in, I went into the small room, and surprisingly, it was actually decent for a motel.

I had shut off my phone on the drive here, so when I lied down and turned on the cable, I also turned on my phone.

There were about 15 or so texts.

*COLBY*

Where are you?

Why did you leave?

We're gonna find you.

Chelsea, call me.

Answer me. 

Chelsea, we're worried about you.

*Jake*

Chelsea, we just got here. You're my only sister.

Chelsea, please.

I'm gonna do tough love. Don't be a bitch and make us worried.

Chelsea, just let us know you're alive.

*Adrian*

Chelsea, please.

Chelsea

Are you alive?

You're not dead, are you?

Did someone kidnap you?

I will hunt them down, if they did.

Thanx 4 the pizza!
