Chapter 51

Everyone didn't know what to do.


Some kids screamed, and some adults too, but I didn't.


I was just in total shock. I didn't know what to do.


All of a sudden I saw the light of a phone flashlight.


"David!" I heard Victoria say, not knowing what to do.


I walked back to my room, feeling each one of the doors, and counting them until I could recognized mine.


I walked in and felt around for my phone on my bed.


When I finally found it, I saw I had a text.


It was from Hadley.


"Meet me at football fields ASAP. Emergency." It read.


I shined my phone flashlight towards my closet, and opened it.


Then I looked around for my gold knee-length pea coat.


I then put the coat on and shined my flashlight into the hallway.


I shut it off, just so no one would see me. As I started to walk down the hall, something ran into me.


It was Cruz.


"Dammit Cruz, you almost gave me a heart attack!" I said, trying to catch my breath from being scared half to death by the 13 hear old.


He just laughed at me.


I started to sneak back away.


"Going to meet Hadley?" Cruz asked.


I turned around and looked at him.


"How'd you know?" I asked.


"I know everything." Cruz said, smirking.


"You're a smart kid." I said. "Now don't tell anybody!"


"Won't." He said, as he continued to walk away.


That kid did know everything... But I had to go meet Hadley.


And it must be important.


So I snuck down the stairs, and walked through the crowd to the door.


I tried to rush by everyone so nobody would see me.


I got to the back door and opened it. Then I ran out to the football fields.


She was standing out there. Lonely. Sad.


"What's wrong?" I asked.


I hugged her.


"I'm going to miss you. So so much Phoebs!" She said, a tear started to stream down her cheek.


"Oh Hads, I promise I will visit!" I said, wiping the tear from her face.


"But you won't be here. It won't be the same." She sniffled.


"It wont, but we will still be friends." I said, smiling.


"Ugh, but you won't be here!" She said, wiping away another one of her tears from her face.


"But still." I said, smiling again. "Now c'mon, the parties in there!" I said, pulling her towards the house.


By the time we got back in, the lights were back on.


And finally, we were able to throw my goodbye party.
