RollerCoaster Ride.

Chapter 9

*Beep Beep Beep Beep*

My..... Alarm went off?

Last thing I remember was falling asleep in my bed with a raging headache.

Looking at the clock, I realized I was the only one in my bed.

2:05 AM.

He probably set my alarm for earlier but I just couldn't wake up.

I figured that I oughta send him a text thanking him for everything today.

JAXONS POV

No.... No..... NO!

"What a pretty girl," the man in black said while he hit my girlfriend.

"Don't TOUCH HER!" I yelled, and yelled.... but I couldn't make my feet move.

I tried and tried, but couldn't move.

I was glued to the ground.

His hands started traveling lower and lower on her torso and I knew what he wanted to do.

"GET AWAY FROM HER!!!" I screamed and screamed.

"Hmmm. NO," and with that last word, his hand was in her pants in a matter of seconds.

No.

"Carlee, I'm so so sorry," I said as I was forced to watch the tears roll down her face.

"Jaxon.... Jaxon.... JAXON," my mom was shaking me, trying to wake me up.

"Are you okay, Hun???"

"No Mom... I had the worst dream I've ever had. I know I'm not supposed to use my phone this late but I NEED to call Carlee... PLEASE."

"Ten minutes, Jaxon."

"Thank you."

CARLEES POV

I had walked downstairs to grab a glass of water and a bagel, only to come back upstairs to twelve missed calls from Jaxon.

"Jaxon... Are you okay?" I asked as soon as he picked up his phone.

"No," I could hear him sob as he forced himself to say that one difficult word,"I'm not. Are YOU okay??? Are you hurt? Did anything happen to you?? Baby, are you okay??? Can I come over??? I'll be there in ten if you let me.... Please. I need you."

"Hey, SH. It's fine, Love. I'm fine, I am not hurt, nothing happened to me, I'm fine, once again. Yes, you can come over if you need to. I look bad. Runny makeup and messy hair are KILLER." I added that last part with a slight giggle to lighten the mood.

"I will be over in ten minutes, Baby Girl. I bet you look absolutely, positively, spectacular."

"Oh hush, goodbye Love. I'll see you soon. Love you, Bye."

And with that... I hung up.

Did I mean that?

I think so.

I mean, I know it's sudden but.... I really think I do....

He has been my best friend since Pampers were on my bottom.

I love that kid.

So much.

And I know he needed to hear that right now.

My phone lit up with a message from my best friend.....'s mom?

"Sam got in a hunting accident and she was shot. We don't know if she's going to make it. Feel free to come down to the hospital Hun, but not tonight. You need your rest. We love you, and Sam loves you too. Call me if you need to SweetHeart." and a simple heart emoji to end it.

My best friend.....

is dying?

Fantastic.

And with that, I shrunk down my wall, and let the tears fall.
