Anxiety and Adventures (A Colby Brock fanfic)

~Colby’s pov~

she handed me my keys and I'm just letting her walk away. I should turn around and tell her not to go. It's literally 2:45 in the morning and she is going to walk somewhere. Soaking wet, with no towel. I need to tell her not to go, but when I turn around she isn't there. Why would I wait so long to tell her not to go? How stupid. I need to find her. I go up to my apartment to grab my phone and run into Sam. "Bro." I yelled "you scared the shit outta me." He looked behind me and was quick to say "where did Haley go? You chase her away?" I roll my eyes and reply. "Yes Samuel. I ran another girl out of my life. But I'm going to fight for this one. She's different." He looks at me and asks "do you want me to help look for her? I could also try to talk to her if you give me her number." I hesitate but pull up her contact and give it to Sam. "I don't think she'll talk to you but it's worth a shot." I say.  He puts in the number it sends a text.

~my pov~

I've been walking for almost 10 minutes. I have my maps taking me home, and I'm cold cause I'm dripping pool water. Then I get a text from a random number.

Unknown- hey Haley. It's Sam. Where are you?

Now I am even more upset cause this is the second time my phone number has been given without permission.

Me- why do people always give my number out like candy😡
Me- it's none of your business where I went. Cause I know Colby is reading all of these messages. I'm not dumb.

~Colby's pov~

I look at the last text and see

Haley- it's none of her business where I went. Cause I know Colby is reading all of these messages. I'm not dumb.

"Wow, she is smart." I say with a smile. "Just give me a minute. I'll be back." Sam walks to his room, closes the door and locks it.

~My pov~

all of a sudden my phone rings and the number that is supposedly Sam's is on the screen. I answered and change it to a FaceTime. "Show your face so I know this isn't Colby." I yell at the screen. The lights on the other side turn on and it's Sam. "Show me that Colby isn't in there with you." I hear him side, unlock and open the door to show him down the hall. Before Colby could get a word out Sam closes the door back and locks it. "Proof enough?" He asked. I rolled my eyes and agreed. "You have three questions, make them good." "Hope I get good answers." He said. "No promises" I say back. There is a pause and then I hear "what did Colby do to make you want to leave?" I gave an annoyed laugh. "long story short, he thinks we've been friends forever in wants me to talk about all things personal." He was about to ask 'about what' but stopped himself because he remember he only had three questions. "Question number two." He starts. "Do you want me to take you home? I won't bring Colby." I just look at my screen. For all I know Colby will follow him. "No. I don't want him to follow you." I say "How do you know he will?" "I don't. That was also your last question, so bye Sam." I end the call before he says anything else. There was a playground on my left so I go and sit on the swing. I pull out my phone and decide to post on Snapchat. I stand on the swing and smile for the picture. And post with the caption 'wish I was 10 again.' I sat there for a good 5 minutes when my phone buzzed in my hand making me jump. A text from Colby pops up saying

Brock- Haley. Please tell me where you are. It's fucking 3:30 and you could get hurt.

I look at it for about 2 minutes and just send him a picture of me at the playground.

Brock- I'm coming to get you. Don't leave.

Being a stubborn girl that I am, I leave the playground. I don't want him to come get me. I take a video and send it to him.

Me- *video* "I'm not staying here. Sorry."

I walked for about 7 more minutes when I get a text from Sam.

Samuel- stop walking.

out of nowhere headlights shine behind me and Sam gets out of his car. "How did you know where I was?" I asked angrily. "You posted on Snapchat right?" He asked. "I know one of my friends has you on Snap so I asked him if he posted recently. He said yes and sent me the picture." I rolled my eyes and continue to walk away. He runs up to me and spins me around. "Sam. Let go of me." I say with a serious expression. "I will if you let me take you home or wherever you were going." I just look at him, Furious. "I don't trust you. You could take me to Colby for all I know." I tell him. Him holding my wrist is giving me PTSD. "Just let me go." I scream. He releases and I sit on the curb, shaking. On the verge of tears for like the seventh time today.  "I'm…" "No. You have no right to hold me like that. I deal with that enough at home so I don't need some guy I just met to do the same." I yell. He is looking at me and I just realized what I said. "Haley. Are things abusive at home?" He asked quietly. I panic "No." I am clearly lying and he sees it. "Is that why you asked Colby if you could crash at our place?" I don't know what to do now. I stand up and get really dizzy. I can barely concentrate. The anxiety was there and there was no way I could get rid of it. "Are you okay Haley? You don't look too good." I just look at him in my vision is starting to go black. "Sit back down." He tells me. "Actually I think I'm going to pass…" before I finish the sentence I fell to the ground everything went fully black.

Hey guys. So instead of posting twice a day like I have been. I am now only posting once. I just need to get it all written and finished so I can get the next story out. I promise it won't be rushed. Thanks for understanding 😘
