As soon as I arrived back home after being escorted by Caleb, I said my greetings to my Aunt and Uncle for the night before making my way to my bedroom to catch up on some much needed sleep

In the hallway of the house I bumped into Clay Jensen who was leaving out of Hannah's bedroom, he went red in the face from embarrassment that he had been caught by me when he left City Gym in a hurry. Hannah dipped her head and rest her forehead against his arm

'So what was the big emergency then Hannah that you needed Clay' I asked curiously

'Oh it was nothing important Slick' she stated

'Only Jess gets to call me that and besides Jess told me that you've always wanted to give someone a lovebite, I see you've been practicing well on Clay'

'Did she?' Hannah exclaimed, pulling out her phone from her sleeping shorts. 'That reminds me, I need to text her about tomorrow. Come on Helmet I'll show you out'

Hannah had practically shoved Clay down the corridor of the house to the front door, Clay said his goodbyes to the two older Bakers hurriedly before stepping out of the house and onto the landing with Hannah in the cool dark night.

She came back into the house a few moments later with her cheeks puffed red, Hannah had bite her lips seductively as she was typing a text message, I knew she was texting Clay as she had developed a habit of biting her lips when I've had asked her before in the past who she was on the phone too when we were watching a movie together.

'What' she asked kindly, with.a small smile on her face

'I've never seen you this happy before in my life' I exclaimed. 'You really love Clay don't you'

'I've never been so sure in my life about anything but the one thing I am sure of, no other guy will ever get the same amount of love I have for Helmet'

'He must be one lucky guy then'

'He sure is Mason' she replied. 'Night'

Hannah had dipped into her room for the night and closed her bedroom door quietly. I pushed open the door to mine and throw my bag onto the desk chair, dropping down onto the bed I pulled out my phone from my gym shorts and opened up some of the social media apps

I decided to look for Bobby Reid on Twitter then on Facebook with no luck or results with that name at all. Deciding to try Instagram with a few hashtags of Liberty High School I managed to find a few videos of that baseball match where it got heated between Bobby and Bryce and a small scuffle broke out

The small videos belonged to Sheri Holland and Mrs Lynn, they would be my first port of call tomorrow to know more about Bobby Reid and where he might be now......

My alarm clock buzzed loudly as usual at six o'clock in the morning much to my annoyance, changing into my running gear and placing a stop watch on my wrist. I quietly left the house trying not to wake up the others, I waited at the end of my street block for Clay to show up as he hadn't arrived yet

Five minutes later Clay showed up at the end of my block whilst we did our new signature handshake, we started our daily five mile run around the town as daybreak had dawned the sky with beautiful colours

Clay and I reached the outskirts of the town and I decided now would be a perfect moment to ask him about Bobby Reid. Dropping back in my running pace I matched Clay's speed, clearing my throat I gained Clay's attention as he was in his running zone

'Can I ask you something about your freshman year at Liberty?'

'Yeah ask away Mason' he stated. 'What's on your mind'
