I blinked my eyes awake and slowly sat up. I looked over to the end of my bed and saw Cartoon Cat who was still sleeping 'oh right, I forgot he slept in here'. I looked towards the entrance of the room, the door was open. 'If I go now then I might actually have a chance at escaping. I mean he has been really nice to me, but that still doesn't change that fact that I want to go home and get away from this place'.

I slowly got off of the bed-trying not to make any noise. I tiptoed my way towards the door. Once I got out of the doorway I quietly shut the door and locked it so that if he woke up he wouldn't be able to get out. I then ran until I found the exit, once I got to the exit I just ran the rest of the way home. There was no point in trying the car since I didn't have the keys.

(Time skip)

I ran for so long that my leg hurt, but I just kept running until I made it home. It was kinda hard to see though because it was still dark out.
I finally made it home and looked in my pockets for my house keys. It was a good thing that Cartoon Cat hadn't taken my keys off of me while I was still there, so I still had them in my pocket. I unlocked the door and ran inside-shutting the door behind me and pressing my back up against it.

'I-... I actually made it... I actually made it back home'. I looked toward the house phone and questioned whether I should call the police. I don't think they would believe me though, they'll probably just think that I'm crazy. I sat down-out of breath from running. I breathed heavily, but finally I got up and walked up the stairs.

I walked into my room and plopped down on the bed-looking up at the ceiling. I covered myself up and closed my eyes so I could rest for the rest of the night.

I woke up when my alarm went off. I got up and got ready for school since I still had to go to school. I walked down the stairs and picked up the backpack that was in the corner. Once I got to the store I started to think about what people might ask 'what if they ask where I've been, What do I say? What if they ask me where (f/n) is?'

I just decide not to think about it and opened the door to walk to school. On my way to school I could've sworn that I saw something out of that corner of my eye that looked tall and black. When I looked over to the spot however... there was nothing there. I walked into the school building and headed towards my locker. The strange thing is though is that no one was asking me where I've been or where (f/n) was.

Makes sense though because we weren't exactly the most popular people in school. I put all the things that I didn't need into my locker and headed to class. On my way to class I made sure to keep my head down so I wouldn't attract too much attention. I got to my first class and sat down, and as usual people were talking so loud that I could barely hear my thoughts. The teacher walked in and slammed a book on her desk, and just like that the whole class went silent.

Teacher: Ok I'm about to do roll call. When I say your name say here.

She then started calling out names, and I was quiet the whole time until she called my name.

Teacher: (Y/n)?

Y/n: H-here.

Teacher: (Y/n), you're actually here today? Could you explain to me why you were gone for the last three days?

Y/n:...W-well uuuhh I've just been sick, yeah I've just been sick.

Teacher: Ok well I'm glad you're better so you could be here today.

Y/n: Y-yes I am too.

Teacher: Well today we're going to be talking about the Vietnam War.

'Ok I got through that part, now I just have to get throught the rest of the day' I listened to the teacher for the rest class period. By the time class was over most of the class had fallen asleep. When the bell rang I put all my stuff in my bag and stood up to walk out of the classroom. Before I could walk out of the room however I was pulled to the side. The person who pulled me was Trevor, he was I guy that I new, but I never really hung out with the guy or talked to him that often.

The only thing I really new about him was that he had a crush on one of my bullies.

Trevor: Hey (y/n), do you know where Jessica is?

'That must be the one he has a crush on' I opened my mouth to speak.

Y/n: No I don't, sorry. Why do you ask?

Trevor: Well I kinda wanted to ask her something, but I don't know where she is.

Y/n: Well if I had to guess where she was I would say she would probably be outside the school.

Trevor: Ok well I'll go check there, thanks.

He ran out of the room before I could respond. I actually didn't really know where she was, or where the rest of them were. Then I started thinking about the clothes that Cartoon Cat had given to me. Could those really have been their clothes, but there's no way. I just stopped thinking about it and decide that it must've just been a coincidence that the clothes he gave to me looked like the clothes they were wearing that day.

(Time skip)

It was time to go home so I walked over to my locker and grabbed all of my stuff out of it. I walked out of the building and walked to my house. On my way to my house I saw the same thing I saw earlier out of the corner of my eye again, but when I looked over to the spot there was nothing there other than a black cat. 'Hmm that's weird, I could've sworn I saw something tall and black over there. Guess it was just my imagination' I got to my house, unlocked the door, and walked in-closing and locking the door behind me.

I put my bag on the couch and sat down on the couch next to it. I grabbed the remote and turned on some old cartoons. 'It's a good thing that today is friday so I don't have to do any homework' I watched TV for so long that I eventually fell asleep on the couch.

(Yes! I just typed 1177 words! Bye, see you in the next part~)
