Tory

I open the door to my room and see a note on my desk-

Tory,

Meet me at friendlys at 7:00

~S

S? As in Steve? I get all exited and squeal of joy. I run downstairs and tell Aunt Julie "Julie can you drop me off at friendlys at 7:00?" I ask anxiously. She gives me a puzzled look. "Who you meeting there? Is it that boy Steve? He told me to give you that note in your bedroom." I light up with joy. So it was from Steve! "Yea is it okay if I meet him there?" I ask. She hesitates for a minute. "Sure just be home by 8:00." She answers. "Yes! Thank you so much!" I scream while I hug her. I run up stairs and put on a pair of brand new converse, a pink tunic and jean shorts. Every five minutes I'm looking at the clock hoping it will be seven soon. Eventually it's ten minutes until seven and I'm running down stairs and jumping into the car waiting for Aunt Julie to get in the car. She's coming down the path and I get a text from Steve. 'Did u get my note?' The text says. 'Ya' I text back. Julie starts the car and we head to Friendlys. She drops me off and I walk out of the car. I wave goodbye and she drives away. I walk into the restaurant and see Steve sitting at a table. I join him and say "Hey Steve" he nods. "Are you ok?"I ask hesitantly. He starts to tear up. "Jay Jay died after school." I'm literally shocked. I start to heavily breathe. "I got to go" I whisper. I run out of the restrant. I just keep on running.
