avery, a 17 year old girl, goes to a school called "ridge highschool". with constantly moving, it's hard to keep friends. but after two months of being at her school, settled in, and having some friends, two new twins come.
it was the next morning, i was extremely tired and had bags under my eyes. i stretched and stayed in my bed for a bit, and decided i'd go on instagram.

this kid had a checkmark? i must be dreaming. i noticed that he had posted 8 seconds ago, meaning he's up at the same time i am. i was confused seeing as the caption was "Late night" even though it was morning. i laughed thinking he was lazy. it was sunday, i sighed of relief but also disappointment because i didn't want to go back to school tomorrow. i couldn't stop thinking about how this kid is rich, has a checkmark on instagram?? and he's cute. he's perfect, i guess. i got up and started getting ready for my day, i wanted to go on my skateboard and ride around my neighborhood before it got super bright out and people would watch me fall. i guess you could say i'm not the best at skateboarding. i sent this to grayson because i remembered him and e bringing a skateboard to school.

i smiled, only knowing grayson for a few days and he was already so sweet makes me so happy. i snapped him, "yeah!! come over maybe wednesday" he replied "Yeah that sounds good. We're pretty loaded with stuff to do so Wednesday works :) Be safe though" "i'll be safe i promise, see you tomorrow!" i shut off my phone, continued skateboarding and listened to day n nite by kid cudi. he has been my go-to for jams recently because it just puts you in such a good mood, and i'm all for good moods. it was weird in my neighborhood, it wasn't exactly... well. safe. there has been kidnappings and break-ins all over here. that's why i never go outside at night by myself or do anything by myself. my parents are always super overprotective so every once and awhile i'll sneak out in the morning and ride around like i did this morning. all of a sudden a dark green stops in front of me, and i shut off my music, unplug my headphones, and look up. "what is your name?" a deep voice said. my heart skipped a beat, i felt my stomach drop and i felt immediately so scared. i picked up my skateboard and started running. then the truck turned around and started driving towards me. i sprinted between the pathways of my neighborhoods houses, ran through 2 backyards, all while i was holding my phone, scrambling to call grayson to come pick me up. it wouldn't let me dial 991 so the only option for me was him. he picked up fast and i started bawling. "grayson, there's a fucking green truck chasing me around my neighborhood and i'm terrified, PLEASE come get me." i was shaking and could barely talk, i was fearing my life at this point. "avery, i'm already going past your neighborhood. run to your house and stay inside with the doors locked. i'll be there in 3 minutes. i promise. i won't let anything happen to you." "grayson i'm so scared." i started bawling even more, i slammed my back door shut and locked all of my doors. i ran into my room with a bat and shut my door, sat up against my wall and looked out my window. the green truck appeared, and stopped right outside my house. "GR,GRAY,GRAYSON THE TRUCK IS FUCKING OUTSIDE MY HOUSE" "avery, i'm here i'm not going to let anything happen to you." a porsche pulled up outside, i saw ethan stay inside while dialing hopefully 911, and grayson got out of the car and went right up to the persons window. "dude, what the fuck are you doing? leave right now and DONT come back or you'll fucking regret it." grayson raised his voice and the truck pulled away, and drove off. i ran downstairs, unlocking the door, running into graysons arms and crying my eyes out. "grayson, thank you so much. you saved me. i don't know what would have happened to me if you didn't come so fast." he hugged me tighter, giving me an instant feeling of comfort and safety. "avery, its okay. you're okay. i would never let anything happen to you." he rested his head on top of mine and continued to hug me. he let go softly and there the cops were. oh god is this a nightmare.
