Cold Hearted//Jack Johnson

Chapter 11.

Amber's POV>>

I packed, but for not as long as Jack said.
I packed everything I thought necessary, clothes, makeup, hats, a jacket, everything I would need. Money. I ran to the basement and grabbed the emergency credit card. It had at least $5,000 dollars on it.
Hurry. Hurry. Hurry.
I kept saying in my head.
I zipped up my bag and grabbed a purse, throwing my phone and credit card in it.
I need to leave the state. Immediately I knew who to dial.
"Michelle, take me to California with you. Don't tell anyone, please. I'll explain it all once we're in the car. Please." I beg her.
"Fine, be there in about 30 minutes."
"I can meet you somewhere, I have to go fast." I said, rushed more than ever.
"Oh, okay, meet me at the grocery store?"
"Perfect. Halfway. Um see you soon."
I put my beanie on and a hoodie.
Last time seeing this house.
I thought as I walked down the street to the grocery shop. Gladly, Michelle was already there.
"Why are you coming to California?" She immediately asked me as she put my bags in the back.
"Well, after Jack told my brother we like each other, he didn't accept it. He was going to send me away to a boarding school with only contact to him and dad. Before we go by any chance can we stop and get me a new phone?"
She nodded.
"So, what, are you running away?"
"Basically, but only until Jack gets it through his head that he can't just send me away for liking his best friend."
"I agree, but really, another state?"
"Really. Also, I'm going to need a place to stay until my birthday, so at least two months." I feel bad for asking her for so much.
"I'm staying with Matt and his friends as of now, maybe you could stay there too?"
"Thank you so much." I tell her.
"Anything for my best friend." She smiles.
"Um, don't you think you should run this by with Matt?"
"Oh, shit. I'll call him quick."
I block out there call.
"He said yes! Now let's get to driving."
Relief flooded through my body as she started the car.
"Wait, Michelle, I want to go to the hospital quick. Please, then we'll get me a new phone?" I ask.
"Of course." She smiled.
In a matter of time we are sitting in the hospital parking lot.
Debating whether to go in or not, I'm already out of the car and into the hospital.
310, 312, 314, 316, 318, 320.
I open the door.
He's gone. The sheets from the bed are gone. Nothing of his is here.
I was too late. He's okay now, he's probably at home. But I can't risk going there. I didn't get the chance to say goodbye, I don't know how long I'll even be gone, or if I'm even coming back.
I close the door and run out to the parking lot.
My brother is shouting at Michelle asking her where I am.
I call her.
"Meet me a little ways down the road. Tell Jack it's Matt, hurry." I tell her then hang up. She signals me to start running and I do. I run as fast as my legs carry me.
I soon see her car heading my way so I wave to her.
"Get in!" She shouts.
I hop in and buckle right away.
"Duck down." She says.
"Why?" I'm so confused.
"He's following us.
He took it too far.
"We need to lose him." I say.
"No shit, as soon as we're out of the state he should stop following us.
"I hope." I say quietly.

One Day Later>>

Amber's POV>>

Shaking. A lot of shaking. Did we get in an accident?
"Wake up!" I hear someone shout. Just Michelle.
"We're here." She smiles.
I take off my beanie and hoodie.
Finally.
"Yes! We made it!" I shout jumping out of the car.
"Okay, this is their apartment building. It's huge by the way." Michelle explains.
"MICHELLE!" Matt shouts. Smiling.
They hug and kiss and all that lovey-dovey stuff.
"Ah, nice to see you Amber!" Matt says, welcoming me in a hug.
"Amber?" It's Cameron and Nash.
"Cameron! Nash!" I shout hugging them both.
"What the hell are you doing here?!" Cam shouts happily.
"Well, long story, I'll explain once I'm unpacked."
"We share a room." Cameron says to me.
I laugh a little and grab my bag from Michelle's trunk.
"Thanks for the ride Michelle." I hug her.
"No problem. Oh and while you were asleep I got you a new phone." She laughs handing me an iPhone 4, not too much, but it'll do.
"Thanks again." I smile.
Cameron grabs my bag and we carry it into our new room.
"So, here it is!" He says.
"Is this the biggest room?" I ask, my eyes bugging out of my head.
"Since, I am the oldest, I get the rights I deserve." He laughs.
The view was beautiful.
"It's beautiful." I say looking out of the window.
"Like you." I hear him whisper, I don't think I was supposed to hear it so I act like I didn't.
"I want to go around town today, maybe go to the beach?" I ask him.
"Sure, anything. Now, tell me, why are you here? I don't mind, just curious."
"Well, I liked my brothers best friend, and my brother was going to make me go to boarding school, only making contact with him and my dad, occasionally my friends. But I had to get out. I didn't tell anyone. I just, left." I say.
"Isn't he worried?"
"More pissed than worried." I laugh a little.
"He's probably worried, probably already called the police."
I was about to say something when Nash called me downstairs.
The TV was on, with my face on it.
"RECENT NEWS: TEENAGE GIRL GOES MISSING FROM OMAHA, NEBRASKA, LAST SEEN YESTERDAY 12:00 PM IF SEEN CALL 123-456-7890" The TV read.
"Well damn." I said.
"LET'S GIVE YOU A MAKEOVER!" Michelle practically screams.
"Like, what?" I ask.
"Dye your hair, get you new makeup, a new style of clothing, you'll look amazing!"
"I can have my sister come and dye your hair, and then her and Michelle can get you new clothes and makeup, if Michelle knows your sizes?" Cameron suggests.
"GENIUS!" I shout, hugging him and Michelle.
This should be interesting.

<<okay, I'll probably do a double update but in Johnson's and Gilinsky's POV, so yeah, byee>>
