Chapter 8

Authors notes

Fuck.  This chapter was all over the place but trust me next chapter will explain everything. Or it won't.

Autobots, roll out.

When i was younger i was in a hit and run. I can remember being in a the back of a gray 2000 toyota camry on our way to go get some taco bell with my brother and we suddenly got into a fender bender and ever since then i never felt right being in a car. I can still see that car coming out of the bar's parking lot and not stopping. my head hitting the window, not to hard to creak the window but hard enough to cause some concern from my brother. So driving always made me nervous,  i mean i can drive but its the thought of being hit by other cars that makes me feel anxious. I can also remember when I got to drive for the first time. It was all a traumatic experience but later I found out how to get rid of the terrible anxiety and just relax and drive. One of the coping mechanism was watching transformers. Crazy, I know, but it was helpful to think that every car had feelings and that they might be this ass kicking robot that could protect you and that got me through it all. I haven't been able to drive lately cause when I moved down to my new house I left my car at the mechanics cause old Gandalf isn't like she used to be. You know I have been wondering what type of vehicle to get. I mean cars are great and all but I'm really thinking about getting a truck. I like trucks cause they are big and so high off of the road it makes me feel safer. Like I'm driving a tank.

Radio "(Y/N)"

Me "hm?"

Radio " why do you do that?"

Me "do what?"

Radio " disappear?"

Me "what do you mean by that?"

Radio " you go inside of your mind and don't come out. Like you are shutting down."

Me " I was just thinking where I left those glasses."

Lie.

Radio "oh!"

Me "yeah, I don't remember where I left them so I'm trying to retrace my steps."

Another lie.

Radio " okay, we need those glasses."

Me " I know, don't worry. I'll find them. "

On the drive there i was consumed with the haunting feeling as if this isn't going to end well. I know that in the scene it will be chaotic but it was more than that. it was the feeling that this lies are only going to get bigger and in the end i dont think that this will end well. We make it to sams house and I see bestie step out and she has a huge smile from ear to ear. I love seeing my beautiful best friend being happy, she runs over to me grabbing my arm and giggles.

Me "your happy."

Bestie " yeah."

Why is it that when I see this scene playing out I feel like I'm also betraying very thing that was apart of my childhood. I know that eventually I will leave and this will be a distant memory but I feel the heart break now. I walk with bestie to the front door when Ron flung the door open that scared the shit out of me!

Ron "WHERE HAVE YOUVE BEEN YOUNG LADY!?"

Me "uhhh..."

Ron " WE WERE SO WORRIED! NO CALL! YOU JUST SNUCK OFF WITH YOUR NEW FRIEND THAT WE NEVER MET BEFORE!"

Me "we were-"

Ron "I DONT CARE WHAT YIU HAVE TO SAY! YOU ARE GROUNDED YOUNG LADY!"

Me "Rob! I don't think that's fair."
