I Miss You/ DISCONTINUED

Chapter 1

Hey guys. I am updating this and going to try to finally finish the story. I'm so sorry that it has taken so long for me to work on this. The picture above is what Gabriela looks like and there's also a song. If you have suggestions or thoughts, please comment. I would love to hear your thoughts. Also, if you see any grammar mistakes or anything that's wrong, please tell me. Thnx!

In the middle of the woods, in a town up North, Gabriela sat against a tree with her notepad in her lap. She was drawing what she saw in front of her; the trees, the leaves, the large grey squirrel hiding in a hole in a tree with her newborn young. She lightly drew on the page while glancing up and around. She had been sitting in the same position for about two hours now just drawing. That's what she did when she was having a bad day or was bored. She was unpopular and didn't really have friends, but that didn't bother her. 

Normally, Gabriela would get home from school, go straight to her room and do her homework, then draw or sketch something until she was tired. Sometimes, when she walked home from school, she'd find something to draw or sketch so she'd stop. When she's having a bad day, well, that's different. On Gabriela's bad days, she would walk home as slowly as possible, listening to music through her AirPods, carrying her sketch book close to her chest. She would leave her normal road that she followed to get home and walk away to somewhere else to find something else to draw.

After about another hour and a half, Gabriela finally gathered her things from the forest floor and walked back to the road. She turned back around to check her surroundings again and notice its beauty before walking out of the forest and walking home. She lived close to a national forest so she would just walk there when she wanted space from people. It was her safe place.

"Where have you been, Gabriela?" As soon as she opened the front door to go inside her house, her stepmom came up to her and starting questioning her. Gabriela tried her hardest not to roll her eyes at her new stepmom but failed. She rolled her eyes and took of her shoes. Megan, her stepmom, glared intensely towards Gabriela until the sound of footsteps were heard coming closer to them. Megan instantly slapped her fake smile on her face as Gabriela's father, Ben, walked in the room wearing his usual suit and tie.

"Hello, Gabriela. How was your day? Did you go out to draw again?" Gabriela sat her bag down on the floor as Ben walked over to give her a hug.

"Yeah. It was okay. Nothing new happened. Nothing new ever happens." She put on a small fake smile as she looked at her father in the eyes. She looked like him. Their eyes were the same, there hair was close to the same color, and the freckles that were noticeable on her were also slightly noticeable on her father meaning he used to have them when he was younger.

"We are headed out for dinner. I can bring you back something or I can order you pizza. Your brother went over to a friend's house and your sister is also at her friends house so you can have the house to yourself." That's when she realized that not only was her father wearing a newer suit, but Megan was wearing a newer, more inappropriate dress that showed too much cleavage. Gabriela's smile widened as she learned that she had the house to herself. She told her dad just to order pizza and she would be fine.

Once Megan and Ben left, Gabriela connected her phone to the Bluetooth speaker and blasted music. She danced around the room with a piece of pizza in her hands. When a slow song finally came on, she walked over and slouched on the couch. She finished eating that piece of pizza and decided that she would do some homework that wasn't due for another week or two. Yes, Gabriela is THAT girl.

She walked upstairs with her bag over her shoulder and walked down the tight hallway. Once she got to the end, she slowly turned the knob to the large wooden door that led to the only room on that side of the stairs. After Megan moved in, she moved Gabriela to that room. She didn't really care, she got away from the rest of her family. She walked into the room and sat her bag on her large black desk in the corner. She changed into sweatpants and a oversized sweatshirt. She grabbed her backpack off her bed and took out the homework. She walked back downstairs and got comfortable on the couch with her work and pizza.

Hours later, Gabriela finished the whole pizza and was almost done with her homework when she got a text. She grabbed her phone and checked who it was from.

Unknown-1

Gabriela

Unknown-1
We should be asking u the same question
Gabriela
Not really. I didn't add you to a group chat containing seven random people.
Unknown-3
We aren't random u r
Gabriela
Okay, whatever. I don't know who you people are so I'm going to delete this group chat and block all of your numbers. For all I know, you guys could be tracking my phone and come and murder me. Not like that'd be a terrible idea.
Unknown-4
FYI, none of them are smart enough to hack your phone to track you. And do not think anyone is going to kill you and that you will not do it yourself. I'm Luke btw. Mind telling us your name?
Unknown-5

Gabriela

Unknown-1

Gabriela
Idk why you think I'm a guy but I'm not.
Unknown-1
Boys we have a female visitor
Gabriela
I'm not a visitor. I was forcefully put in an odd conversation with seven idiots. Now my safest way out is to block you all. Bye.
Unknown-4
Please don't. You might be a girl but we aren't complete jerks. Want to tell us your name yet
Gabriela
Not exactly
Unknown-1
Please
Unknown-7
Do you go to Lincoln High School
Gabriela
Do you think I'm going to tell you?
Unknown-4
Ok since you aren't telling us anything maybe we should find you ourselves tomorrow. If we can't find you then you can block us and forget about us, but if we find you then you have to tell us who you are. Deal
Gabriela
Idk

Before she could get another text message from the group of boys, the main door swung open and her father and Megan walked in making out. Gabriela didn't know what to do or say so she just quickly gathered her stuff and cleared her throat loudly.

"Gabriela! You scared me. I thought you would be in bed by now," Ben said looking guilty and a little ashamed. Megan glared at Gabriela for interrupting her moment with Ben, but Gabriela didn't care. She rolled her eyes at Megan and grabbed her stuff running up the stairs. Skipping steps and reaching her bedroom door in record time, she threw her backpack on the hard wood floor and jumped on her bed. She fell asleep almost instantly.
