The Run Away

The Run Away ch5

Still in Arias POV. Really hope you like. Xxx

God I am so stupid!

I know I have to go home but how do I get there.

I have only ever driven around, with no clue on where the hell I was going. All I ever wanted to do was to get away from Bailey.

And the only way to do that was to drive, run and hide.

And that's my dilemma.

I pulled out the map I had in the glove box and searched for where I lived. After a few minutes I found it and marked it with my red permanent marker.

Ok now to find out where I am.

So when someone walked past I stuck my head out of the window.

"Hey, do know where we are?" I asked.

He looked taken aback by my question but told me anyway.

"Does that help?" he asked.

"Very much thank you!" I told him.

"May I ask why you need this info?" he questioned once more.

"I need to go home." I said.

"But why aren't you there anyways?" he pondered.

"I had to leave for reasons I india is awsome unable to share." I answered before he could ask anymore questions.

"Thanks!" I shouted out to him then drove off I the direction I hoped would bring me home.

Home, the one place I thought I'd never see again.

But thats not the only thing I knew I would see again.

The people were there too. Like my mum and brother.

Bailey, I wonder if he's still there.

My friends.

...Zac

Zac's POV

Her fathers funeral is on Friday!

Aria won't even be there for it! Why did this have to happen to her? Why not someone like... Me?

I'm not good. I have bad grades and go though girls like tissues for god sake. Why not me?

I'm not saying I want it to happen to me! I mean who does? But why her?

She's so caring for her family, her brother Caleb. I have never seen someone care so much for a sibling!

And she's so funny and cute and perfect in every way ,but not many friends. As she went out with me. I regret making her life hell.

I did't mean too. Really! I just could not date her because. Well because...

I liked her. Way too much! But I could never love her.

I'm not capable of love.

I don't believe in love. All the love songs are full of sh*t!

How could someone like me love. Aria is the closet I've been to love. But I think it was only lust and like.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

I think I needed to see her mum. She must be distraught, what with her ex husband dead and her only daughter missing.

Yes that's what I'll do. She must have has many visits since the dreadful news.

Wow I never used big words like that.

I must have been maturing.

After my inner rating I has decided to go see her mum. It may be stupid but it the best I could think of.

So after school I hopped in my car and went round there to see Jane.

I knocked on the door a few times when she opened looking like she had not slept in days.

Well that's probably not far off.

"Hello... Zac is it?" she asked looking very curious to why I was here.

"Yes mam, I just wanted to stop by and see if you wanted to talk about your late husband... Or Aria." I told her quickly stuttering in the last part.

She looked taken aback by my words. I mean why would a boy like me want to talk to her?

"Why would you want to talk to me?" she questioned.

"Well I dated your daughter briefly and she's a lovely girl and with the news I though you might need someone to talk to." I told her answering her question.

"Well as you put it so nicely. OK come inside." she ushered me inside with her hand.

I had no idea what conversation we would have. But hell I needed to get thinks off my mind.

And that's what I'm gonna do.

"Sorry about the mess been a bit hectic with planning Chris's .... Funeral," she explained with a gulp.

"It's ok mrs Fores." I smiled at her. She looked so much like Aria just aged.

"So tell me what happened between you and my daughter who is M.I.A?" she asked. So I went on to tell her all about when we went out and when we broke up. All the way to the party when she left.

We sat silently for a few moments until she asked me a question.

A question I really did't know how to answer.

"So Zac do you think my daughter is dead?"

Hey so how is Zac gonna answer?

Will he answer at all?

Please read and tell me what you think!

Hehehe!! Xxx
