It's A Secret - Short Story (completed)

Why is the shuttle ride from Office 901 to Earth so boring? At least, seventeen year old Lisa Entre thinks so. She feels like her job is useless and doesn't expect anything exciting to happen when she gets back to her parents house...except Jax, her childhood best friend, is there, hiding from someone in her attic. It's not her fault she wanted to help him. She hasn't seen Jax in years. Yet the longer he's there, the closer they become. Are they truly just friends? And what is happening with her parents or the sudden deaths being reported on the news? Lisa is getting too close to something she isn't supposed to know. How long will she remain ignorant?
