Also, should we work on our project after school Thursday?" I replied, my breath visible. "Sure. See ya." "Bye." I hung up and put my phone away, passing an alley way. When my eyes were on my bag to put my phone away, I felt two hands grab me from behind and a gun press on my back. **trigger warning**
