Until I met him. // J.M.B

"No" I tell him running outside. Down the street. "Felicity where are you going" he says. Running after me.

"Felicity stop" Joey catches up to me and gets in front of me. He grabs my shoulders.

"What's wrong" He says. "My dad he got in a car wreck I need to get to the hospital now" I say with tears streaming out of my eyes. "Come oh let's take my car and let's go".

Me and Joey get back to his car. On the way there we see ambulance lights and police lights. "Stop" I tell Joey.

I get off the car and run to the wrecker car. There is caution yellow tape. I see my dad getting picked up on a rolling bed.

I try to run to him but the police stop me. "Let me go!" I yell screaming and crying.

My dad finally gets put into the ambulance. "Felicity let's go to the hospital" Joey says. I just not with tears.

We get into the car and drive to the hospital.

Once we get there I run to the front desk and ask where my dad is.

I get to the room and they wouldn't let me in to see him. I had to wait.

Joey grabbed me and held me in his arms while I cried.

"Um Felicity" I hear a doctor calling my name looking for me. "Yes" I wipe my tears and go up to the doctor.

"Sweetheart I'm so sorry to tell you this but your father is dead" she says. "No!" I yell.

I fall to the ground and burst into tears. Joey gets down and wraps his arms around me.

"I just had him back" I try to say. "Felicity I know you did it's gonna hurt ok your gonna get through this and your gonna miss him and always love him and trust me he's always gonna love you him and your mom right now I'm pretty sure their both up together" he says. "Ok Joey" I say.

I keep on crying.

Two days have past. I haven't been good. I've been at home I skipped school for two days.

I hear a knock at the front door it's a lady. "Hello are you felicity." She asks. "Yes" I say. "We need you to be in a foster care place until you turn 18" she says. "What do you mean I'm old enough" I say. "Your not old enough until your an adult unless you have family or someone you can live with them you don't have to come we will give you 24 hours if you don't find no one by the next 24 hours you will be with foster care." She says. "Ok thank you" I close the door.

I am so worried. I call Joey. Pick up Joey I say in my head. Joey picks up on the 3rd ring.

"Hey" I say. "Hello,how are you doing" he says. "I'm worried" I say. "Why" he asks. "Because I have to be sent to foster care til I'm 18 if I don't find a place to live like a family member or something." I tell him. "What if- What if you could live with me" he says.

"Wait maybe that would work, but Joey you never know" I say. "Let me ask my mom I'll call you back later and tell you what she says." He says. "Ok bye thank you Joey." "No problem bye" he hangs up.
