Out Of Bounds

Sadie's POV:

It's been almost, 2 hours since Noah and Millie were here. I'm so lonely, like the loneliest you could ever feel. I also just got discharged, finally. But I don't know where to go. Sure, I want to go home but mum, she hasn't. visited me or contacted me at all. Maybe she's just busy she wouldn't have forgotten about her daughter, right? Yes.

I sit here, scrolling through my phone Noah gave me when he was here, I'm so tempted to text Fin- Millie or Noah but, I don't want to seem like I'm nagging them too see me, I mean, they probs got caught up with traffic or like. Something like that. I scroll through my Instagram posts and see Lilia posted something with-

"C- Caleb?" I stutter.

My heart sinks, I didn't know they were. *together* together. I thought Caleb maybe cared even the slightest bit too not move on so quick but I... I guess not.

I turn my phone off and roll onto my side, my back facing my rooms door. it's now 12pm. I don't know where to go, I have some cash on me, I think. I could catch a cab to a motel or something. I don't feel very welcome at home, I never really have. My home is filled with just anger and sadness, blended up and used as paint for the walls. That's my house. Not my *home*. There's a difference. I'm kind of tired of the life I live. It was going so great then I fucken met Caleb.

"Ughhhhhhh!" I scream, pulling at my hair in anger.

I breath so heavily and angrily.

"That's it Sadie! Your signing your fucken self out today!" I think to myself.

The nurse had taken all of my drips and fancy shit out so now all I have it a small bandage over my stitched-up cut. I roll over, swing my legs over the edge of the bed and walk over to the, 'pamper bag' Millie dropped for me. I quickly get changed into some lose pj shorts and one of Millie's oversized T's. I smile as I pull out a pair of cotton coloured fluffy socks. I slide them on and squeeze my feet into her air-maxes as best as I could.

"Geez how small are your feet Mill?" I giggle to myself.

I grab the bag and walk out. The nurse earlier had technically signed me out, but I just chose to stay because I didn't have anyone to leave with. As I walked through the corridors, I try plot a plan as to what I could do to get home or at least somewhere to stay. I walk outside too see an empty cab parked up on the curb. I walk up to it, tapping on the window and pointing at the seat. the young man just simply nods before unlocking the car. I climb in, dumping the small duffle bag at my feet.

"So, where you off to miss?" He says with a charming smile.

"W- well, anywhere near Hawkins Drive." I say with an awkward smile.

"Whatever you say." He chuckles, starting up the car and leaving.

"So, what's your name?" The driver starts conversation.

"Ugh I'm really not in the mood" I mentally scoff.

"Sadie." I say very blunt.

"Jack." He says back, also very blunt.

"Fine."

"Well nice to meet you, Jack." I say as cheery as I possibly could.

"Same to you, Sadie." He says with a smile.

It goes silent again, the faint radio playing in the background. I rest my head on the window as I pass down a quite sketchy street. I snap out of my daze as I see a car very similar to Noah's at Gat-
