PART TWO

          “You’ve been acting weird lately.” His head hurt, he was tired of this conversation. Evita looked at him, worry swimming behind her expression. He didn’t want to hurt her feelings but he wished she’d let him be sometimes.

          “I’m just not feeling well.” It wasn’t a lie He had been feeling sick, his body cold and an empty feeling in his chest. He wasn’t sleeping well either. Walking off during the night and ending up outside of what looked like an old church. He didn’t know if they were nightmares or actually happening because as soon as he shut his eyes, he was back in his bedroom. He couldn’t explain it and it was driving him crazy.

          “You can tell me when you’re ready.” Evita sighs, rubbing the lines between her brows as if that’d magically heal her.

          The bell rang signaling the end of school and Ty breathed in relief. He didn’t want to lie to her but he couldn’t tell her the truth. The truth that he was missing someone he barely knew and that being without her was hurting him in ways he couldn’t even begin to explain. He’d sound crazy.

          He waved goodbye to her before walking home. He kept thinking about her. The way her eyes glued to his when they touched. He’d never forget that face. It was so familiar yet somehow new. Everything was confusing and jumbled, his thoughts racing inside his head. Ty wasn’t sure what to do. He needed to find her but where to start? He didn’t know what school she went to, where she lived, if she even went to school. He had nothing but the strong feeling that he needed her. He was desperate.

          Ty stopped walking as he reached the shortcut through the alley to his neighborhood. It was always dark, no matter the time of day. He stood there for a moment before taking a deep breath and closing his eyes. There was something off about it today. The air shifted from the warmth of summer to cold and stiff.

          “It’s you.” His eyes flew open at the voice.

          What the hell? Rustic and worn down walls surrounded him. He was in some sort of abandoned building. A church maybe? And she was standing there. The girl from the other day. A confused look on her tear stained face. He stared at her in awe. Was he dreaming?

          “How did I get here?” He looked around and noticed a dirty mattress on the floor of the church and empty pill bottles surrounding it. His chest ached with so much hurt he had to sit down.

          Tandy sniffed, wiping her nose on the sleeve of the oversized black coat hugging her frame. “I’m not sure. You kind of just showed up?” She sounded confused at her own words. “I was thinking about you and suddenly you were here.” A slight flush rose to her cheeks as she went to sit by him. Warmth radiated from her body and he knew he was okay.

          “I was thinking about you too.” He admitted shyly. She smiled softly at him. They sat there for a few minutes in a silence so comfortable it felt like he had known her his whole life and longer. She looked sad as she stared at the ground. Ty had so many questions but wasn’t sure where to begin. Nothing made sense. “Do you live here?” She looked up, an embarrassment etched into her features.
