Just to make things clear, I'm very sorry for the confusion and the CONSTANT changes in the story, I understand this story is hectic and I promise I'll try and fix it.  I'm also so sorry for not updating like I said I would, over time I sorta lost motivation to write this story and I never really planned out the plot. I just hope you'll continue to read this story.

[Kody's Pov]

Slowly the bus neared the school, coming to a stop. I stood up from my seat and began to exit the bus. I expected Lumine to be behind me but I didn't see him. Quickly I got back on the bus and looked over the seats. A few people gave me dirty looks but I ignored them and continued to search for Lumine. 

In the back row of the bus, Lumine still sat in his seat, staring into nothing. I quickly went up to him and shook him. Finally, he snapped out of his daze and looked at me. 

"Lumine! Come on, I'm going to be late for my class!" I said before grabbing his arm and quickly dragged him off the bus. 

Once our feet hit the sidewalk I heard the school bell start to ring. I groaned angerly and began to run towards the school gate. As I did I could hear Lumine's footsteps follow close behind. I continued this run until I was in front of my homeroom class. I took a moment to breathe before turning to Lumine.

"What the hell Lumine?! What happened back there?" I whisper-shouted.

"I'm sorry Kody...I didn't mean to. I was just lost in thought." Lumine said avoiding my gaze.

I sighed. "It's fine. But don't do that again, got it?" 

"Don't worry I won't do it again," Lumine said with a smile.

I felt my face start to burn, but quickly tried to hide it. "Good. Now I'm going to class, see you." I said in my monotoned voice. He nodded and began to walk down to halls.

I let out a small breath before I opened my homeroom door. Inside I found everyone in their seats and loudly chatting to their friends. I shrugged and took a seat in the back. I placed my bag on the floor next to me and took off my black and white jacket, waiting for the class to start.

"Alright, class! Today we'll be..." 

----------

I walked out of class hoping I'd find Lumine waiting for me. He wasn't on the bench he's usually waiting on, so I assumed he was in his 'sleeping bush'. I shrugged and decided to walk towards my next class. But as I began to walk through the halls I heard a familiar voice ahead of me. 

There, I saw Lumine, talking to someone. My eyes narrowed once I realized it was Elijah. I sighed and turned the other way. I didn't know what it was about seeing Elijah but I couldn't look him in the eyes. After what he did to our friendship I didn't think I could trust anyone, and here I am with Lumine. Maybe he'll do the same thing. I thought to myself. 

I continued down the halls, taking the long way to my next class. I didn't mind. Though I would've preferred the shorter way, I couldn't risk running into...them. I gripped my bag tighter and hurriedly made my way through the crowd of people. 

And this continued till the end of the day.

----------

Finally the school day was over and I could finally go home. The only problem was I couldn't find Lumine. He usually would be waiting in his bush but I didn't see him there. A part of me was concerned but I knew I'd find him eventually. This is weird...where is he? I thought to myself. Wait-why do I care in the first place? I could just go home right now if I wanted, but...

I started to look everywhere, in the forest, school, etc. But as I began my search the day started to come to an end. It was getting late and I knew I couldn't stay much longer. Hesitantly I made me way out the school grounds and made my way down the sidewalk. The city bus wouldn't be picking up anyone for hours so I deiced I'd walk home. 

As I continued my walk home I noticed some police cars driving by. I thought nothing of it at first till one of them pulled up in front of me. I stopped walking once I noticed the person driving the car. I sighed and slowly approached it.

Then Silver came out of the car and quickly rushed over to me.

"KODY! AH thank gosh your okay!" He said pulling me into a tight hug. "Aiden was worried sick! And Sherry wouldn't stop panicking."

I rolled my eyes. "I'm fine, can you let go of me?" I asked pulling myself away from his grip.

He chuckled. "Oh sorry! We should get you home." 

"Wait...what about Lumine? Do you know where he is?" 

"Lumine? Yeah, he's back at the headquarters. Why?"

"It's nothing...lets just get back home." 

Silver smiled. "Right." We then got inside the car and made our way back home.

---------

"KODY!" My dad shouted as I entered the house, grabbing me into a tighter embrace than Silver. "I was so worried! Please tell me where you are next time!" He cried. 

"D-Dad! Your crushing me!" I gasped.

He then let go of me and smiled. "Sorry, sorry! I didn't mean to, I was just so worried!" 

I sighed. "I'm fine Dad. Where's Lumine?" I asked.

"Oh he's-"

"I'm right here!" Lumine cut in.

I lowed my eyes, "Where were you?" 

He looked at me with guilt in his eyes. "I'm sorry Kody...I couldn't find you in your classes or outside, I had Elijah help me look but we couldn't find you, so I figured you left without me. But once I got here I realized you weren't here...I got worried." 

"Elijah?" I asked confused.

"Y-Yeah, he's not as bad as you think he is Kody. He's actually really nice." He said looking away from me. I couldn't help but notice pink slowly crawling on his face. Does he like Elijah? And as I though this, I felt a pain stab my chest. 

"If you think Elijah's so great why don't you hang out with him instead!? In fact why don't you go leave me too, like he did! See if I care! You to seem to be having a great time with out me around, so just do it!" I hissed. 

And before I knew it, I ran to my room, ignoring the voices calling me back. I quickly shut my door and locked it. 

Why did I say those things? I don't know. Why was I angry? I don't know. Why did my chest hurt? I don't know. But what ever it was I hated myself for it, I hated how I didn't know what it was, I hated how it hurt. 

What was this feeling!? I screamed to myself.
