I couldn't wait until I got back to California to see Adrian, I couldn't stop thinking about our conversation over the phone. It sounds as if she had doubts about getting married and, I understand it was an out of the blue thing for me to do. I knew marriage was going to scare her away, but I wanted to make her mines and let the whole world know that. I got onto Instagram and added a picture of the both of us claiming the rumors were true. We were getting married. I thought it was time for me to tell the world instead of paps taking pictures of us asking us billions of questions. I landed at LAX, of course, paparazzi were there. I made my way through the cameras and hopped into the Escalade.

"Where are we going, Justin?" The driver asked.

"Adrian's. I need to see her; it's been two days." I said. He nods his head and starts the engine making our way to her place. I knocked on the door hoping she would answer. When there wasn't an answer, I climbed up to her bedroom going inside. She was nowhere to be found. I went downstairs; no one was here.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Dan, it's me. Justin. No one answered the door, so I climbed up Adrian's window. Where is she? Is she at school? Maybe I should've checked there."

"No. I haven't seen her since yesterday morning. We've been trying to find her, and there's nothing."

"What do you mean trying to find her? Is she- is she missing?" I asked.

"I don't know. Every time I ask Kathy, she gets all sweaty."

"Hey guys, any good news?" Kathy asked coming inside.

"Where the fuck is Adrian? Dan can't find her, and I'm sure you know where she is." I said.

"I don't know what you're talking about. The last time I saw her was at school yesterday, she asked me if I needed a ride I told her no. Don't look at me, and you think she tells me everything?" She says, I sighed and pulled out my phone to call her.

"Why isn't she answering? Is her phone on? Does she have it?"

"No, she left it here. I just got back from school. Calm down; I'm sure she'll come back."

"Don't tell me to calm down! This is my fiancé."

"Yeah, she is your fiancé, and maybe you're the reason she ran off. With your pressuring and bossiness."

"Oh really, says the friend that told her to get over what happened to her. The friend that obviously didn't do shit when Jason beat the hell out of her in front of the whole school." I said.

"Okay, can we just all calm down, and stop yelling at each other. She will come back; she just needs some time to herself. There's no need for you two to hate each other now. Apologize." Dan says. I rolled my eyes, taking a deep breath.

"I'm sorry, alright. I'm just worried about her. If you know where she is, why can't you just tell me? She could be anywhere, hurt even." I said.

"She's not hurt, let her be. She's coming back. I know exactly where she is, and I'm not telling a soul. Leave her alone, aren't you two tired of pressuring her into doing something she doesn't want to do. Yes, I admit I didn't do anything, and it haunts me till this day. But I will always be there for her and support her in whatever she wants to do. This case is going to tear her apart, and if you don't realize that, then you're selfish. Have you ever noticed how sad she is? That she needs help? And those pills aren't doing anything but making it worse. She's been through enough already so stop trying to add to it. She's damaged enough. God, I can't wait until this is over." She says walking out.
