Chapter 2- Heart break and something new across the lake

12 o'clock. I slowly got up and pulled on my runners. Deep breath. I was actually doing this. As I work my way downstairs I see a picture. I know that picture. Carefully I pick it up. It shows the one time I ever caught Nico smiling. We had pulled a prank on Leo and he was in the background dressed in pink goo. The only time I saw him happy. A tear rolls silently down my cheek. What did I do that was so stupid? I suddenly feel like throwing the picture to the ground but I can't bring myself to it. Instead I slowly undo my backpack and place it safely agmonst my clothes. After wiping away any remaining tears, I gently open the door. As soon as I'm out of the house I break out in a run. Someone's watching me. I feel it. Someone's watching from the shadows. I don't know who, I don't know why, I just know they are. I break out running. Cut left, cut right. I still feel eyes on me. I weave through alleyways trying to get to the only safe place I know. The lake. A place of emotions. The spot of my first kiss. Hours tick by and the eerie feeling still hasn't left me. The sun is rising now. Someone will notice I'm missing. Oh well, I'm just another missing kid. I reach the lake. Emotions run through me. Harden your heart. Harden it until it's a freaking diamond only less glittery, Elle. He was your past. This is your present. You decide your future. I look across the lake blinking away tears. He's not worth it. I notice something different though. On the other side of the lake is something shimmery. I see a dock. Someone's standing there. Standing on something that wasn't there before. Something's wrong. I no longer feel eyes on me. Some how I've got to get across and figure out what's going on. The question is how? I could never swim across. I'd end up drowning (yes yes you would Elle but because of different reasons) some how I have to get across. I plop down on the ground. Hmmm.

"What to do, what to do. Sometimes I wish I could fly" the eyes are back. I can tell. But this time it's something different. I hear a twig snap. I jolt up and pick up a stick.

"Show your self"

"Elle. It's only me. I'm not going to hurt you." A form emerges from the bush. I look at the person. Resentment and anger bubble up inside.

"You" venom drips from my voice. "You know I thought you were my friend" with that a run at them with my stick held high.

"Elle don't. I don't want to hurt you"

"It's a little to late Valdez."
