I Fell In Love With My Best Friend

Chapter Two

Chapter Two

One thing I also forgot to mention that Travis lived right down the road from me. I remember the first time I found that out.

***

I was playing outside with my brother. Who's three years older than me. He's already married and lives all the way in California, he visits when he can, but back to the point. My brother was trying to teach me how to ride my new bike. Yeah, It was my first time riding my bike. I never had any experience. My brother had learned when he was younger, but soon his bike was stolen. It's never been found. My mom and dad just never bothered to buy one till I finally asked. On Christmas day I found it sitting in my living room. Finally after months of not getting my chance to ride. I asked my brother to teach me so he "tried" to. After many tries I heard a familiar voice behind me.

"You need help Addison," I turned around to see Travis behind me, gripping his own handlebars. To his bike.

"I'm fine actually," I said starting to get off the bike,but my leg got caught in the chains. I started to topple, but I heard a clattering sound not of my own. I felt safe guarding hands catch me right before I slammed onto the concrete. I turned my head to see Travis' face looking down at mine.

"That was close," He said laughing helping me back up. I wiped my hair out of my face.

"Well I should go, my aunt doesn't know I'm down here," He said laughing pulling his bike back up, from where it smacked into the sidewalk.

"Oh okay, I'll talk to you later," I said as he started his way down the road.

As I drove home, after I went to get a few groceries which were on my mom's list she gave me. I had accidently forgot to turn down my driveway and found myself having to drive down our road. That meant having to drive by his house. I slowly drove along looking out the window as I did. My headlights caught two figures in the shadows. I wonder who it could be. I quickly turned my headlights off and slowly started to back up. Noone was on the road at the time so I didn't feel like turning around. I crept back to my house. Trying to clear all the stuff out of my head that was probally happening. I tried to block every single image that was crepping its way into my brain.

***

The next day at school. I didn't even want to get up, but I forced myself to get dressed and head to school. I wasn't prepared for what happened next. I felt my phone go off on my dresser drawer. I quickly ran to the phone before the person would hang up. I read the name and something felt wrong. Travis was calling me, something was wrong. He only calls you if he desperatly needs you or needs to talk.

I answered calmly. I heard his soft and sad tone.

"Can you come over, I need you," I heard a little tone of sadness in his voice.
