Thirty-Nine | Phone Calls

Y/n's POV

Mark helps me into the car and a sigh immediately forces it's way out from my lungs.
"Is everything okay?" Marl asks as he starts the car.
"I...I have no idea." I admit.
"What's going on?"
I put my head in my hands.
"Everything that I've created is falling apart." I tell him.
A single tear runs down my cheek that I quickly wipe away.
"What do you mean exactly?"
I shake my head and watch as thoughts run by in my head at a million miles a second.
"When I first moved here it was to start anew." I say.
"Kadence was asked to help me get use to campus and we ended up becoming great friends. For a year it was just us."
Mark stays silent and I continue.
"Then Ethan came and the three of us were in separable. Every day it was us against the world....and insane Professors."
I mumble the last part, earning a chuckle from Mark.
"Now no one knows where Kadence is. She wasn't at school today or her dorm. Her roommate said that she woke up in the middle of the night to her being gone."
Mark puts his hand on my thigh and rubs his thumb is a circle as to comfort me.
"Ethan wasn't anywhere to be found today either. I also found out somethings and even though I'm a bit mad at him, I also feel guilty and worried."
I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulder by finally letting this stuff off my chest.
"Hey," Mark says. "It's all going to be fine. Kadence will probably turn up tomorrow and you can just call Ethan later." I nod, hoping that his words will he true. The last thing that I want to do is loose the family that I've worked so hard to create.

*Ring Ring*
*Ring Ring*

Pulling my phone out my pocket, I answer.

Bold - Ethan)

Hello?
Y/n?
Ethan? What's wrong? Where were you today? Why did y-
Shhhhhhh.....
Ethan?
I'm sorry for telling Mark about you being blind. I stepped out of line because my anger took over. I...I didn't mean to.
It's...fine. Can you just tell me where you were today?
About that....*sigh*.....Y/n, I-uh...dropped out.
You what?!

I almost drop my phone as these words leave his mouth. He dropped out and quit college because of what? I hope I had nothing to do with it.

I dropped out. College wasn't working out for me. My reading problem got in the way of a lot of things, but I'm just not smart enough to be there.
I'm going on as a fulltime YouTuber.
Ethan, you are smart enough. The only thing holding you back is you. Please don't leave.
It's too late to go back without having to pay a bunch more money. I'm happy with the path that I've choose. College wasn't making me happy.
Well then....I'm glad you're happier now.
Me too...I know this is a bit off topic but, what if you, me, and Kad all went to the carnival this week end. We all haven't hung out in a while.
That would be nice. I don't know how we'll get hold of her though. She hasn't been answering anyone's calls today. She's also been acting very strange.
We'll figure it out. Maybe-

My begins to ring again.

Sorry Ethan, someone's on the other line. I'll call you back later.
Alright. Goodnight N/n.
Night Bluebie.

I then answer the other person who was calling me.

Underlined : Kad)

Hello?
Y/n?
Kad? Is everything alright? Everyone is worried about you.
*sniff* I-uh....I've done something that I shouldn't have
done Y/n.

Her voice is very quiet and hoarse. It's almost like she doesn't want someone to hear her speaking to me.

What is it? Did you rob a store? Did you kill someone? If you did I'll help you bu-
No...nothing illegal *sniff sniff*
Are you crying? Kad where are you? Mark and I will-
SHUT UP FOR ONE SECOND AND PLEASE LISTEN TO ME Y/N!

The way she said it was less of a yell of anger, but more of a cry of desperation.

...
I...I've cheated on Julia.
What? Why?
I didn't mean to! It just happened that day that I went over to Nathan's house. He won't leave me alone and keeps talking me into coming over again and I-
Calm down. Take a deep breath.

The car has long since stopped moving. Mark takes my empty hand in his and gives it a reassuring squeeze.

Where are you right now?
At Nathan's...in his bathroom.
Leave right now. Mark and I will come pick you up.
I can't just-
Kadence Jay Hans. Get your ass out of that douche's house and meet us a few houses down from his. Now.
....
We'll be there in ten minutes. If you're not the too then I'm gonna come knocking on his door and I will kick his and your ass.
Okay.

I hang up the phone and turn to Mark.
"Where is she meeting us?" He asks in a very soft voice.
"A few houses down from Nathan's house." I say.
"The same Nathan from the Chinese place?" He asks.
"Exactly."
I quickly tell him Nathan's address and we head there to pick up Kadence.
