After our English lesson was over Sydnie runs over to Abigail and I.
"Hey Alex! Hey Abi!" She smiles.
"Alex?" I question.
"Yeah, I'm calling you Alex now." She blushes. "If that's okay with you?"
"Of course." I laugh.
"I was wondering if the two of you would like to come over to my house. For like a sleepover or something." She says, shrugging.
"We'd love to." Abigail rushes before I have time to interject.
"Great! I'll see you at five?" Sydnie squeals.
"See you at five." Abi laughs and then Sydnie runs off.
"Why would you do that?" I ask, turning to face her.
"Do what?" She smiles.
"Bitch..." I mutter under my breath.
"I heard that." She says in a sing-song voice.

"Abigail! Hurry up! We're gonna be late." I groan.
"I'm coming, I'm coming. Keep your hair on." She shouts.
Around five minutes later she appears in the car with two huge bags in her hands.
"What are you doing with all of that?" I question.
"I uh..." She starts.
"You know what, never mind. I don't care." I say, cutting her off.
We drive towards the Avery household in a comfortable silence. I park the car and step out on to the concrete.
I knock on the front door and am greeted by a girl that looked around Tyler's age. She was wearing dark grey sweatpants, a black tank, an Adidas jacket and Adidas shoes.
"Hi. Is uhm Sydnie here?" I ask.
"Yeah, come in. I'm Ava by the way, Sydnie's sister." She says moving from the door.
"I'm Alexus and this is Abigail." I say, introducing Abi and I.
We walk into the house and Ava leads us towards Sydnie's room.
"Hey Syd!" Abigail shouts.
"Oh hey." Sydnie smiles.

I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom when I walked into a brick wall that happened to be... Jack?
"Oh. I'm so sorry I didn't mean to. It was an accident." I say hurriedly.
"What are you doing here?" Jack asks.
"I-I was going to the uhm bathroom." I stutter.
"No I meant here. At my house." He says running a hand through his brown hair.
"Uhm Sydnie invited me." I mutter.
Jack then groans in aggravation and slams his fist against the wall making me flinch.
"You need to stay away from him please. Your gonna hurt him without realising." He says, backing me up against the wall.
"Zach? Why?" I question, my back against the wall.
"Why don't you just listen? Without all the questions!" He exclaims, anger definite in his tone.
"Why are you so angry all the time?" I ask scared.
"Because it's my fault! It-It's my fault he's hurting. I-I was the one driving! I'm the one who hurt him!" He shouts tears brimming in his eyes.
"Jack? What are you talking about? Who's hurting? Zachary?" I ask.
"I-I shouldn't have said anything. I'm sorry." He apologises whilst crying.
"Jack wait!" I call out to him but he's already gone.
He turns the corner and heads straight towards his room. I'm left standing in the dark hallway questioning everything. What was Jack talking about? What happened to Zach?
