(Trigger warning: it gets worse by the end)

"So how have you been?"

"You saw it didn't you?"

"I read the article, I only found out because my friends saw the video."

"Well that's amazing."

"Still sarcastic at a time like this."

"Always. Anyway, what are you doing on this side of the city Jaeden?"

"I was driving around clearing my head, what were you doing by yourself, walking might I had?"

"I was also clearing my head."

"Does your dad know where you are?"

"No he doesn't."

"Knowing your dad, he's probably worried out of his mind."

"Yeah, I haven't called him, because I don't have a phone right now. I just sorta left."

"You wanna borrow mine?"

"Not right now, later if that's cool."

"Yeah. So where are you staying, because I know you don't live here."

"I kinda don't wanna go right now."

"Okay well I'm not leaving you alone anywhere, so where do you wanna go? It's already kinda late."

"I dont know."

"You wanna go to the beach? I kinda wanted to go already."

"At night?"

"It'll be fine."

"Sure."

He just drove and it stayed silent for a few minutes.

"When did you get your license?"

"Just 2 weeks after I turned 18."

"Oh yeah you're 18 now, congrats on being legal now."

"Thanks, you're still 16 aren't you?"

"Yeah I still have 3 months till I'm 17."

"So this is abducting a minor."

"Oh wow, don't word it like that, plus I willingly got into the car."

"I think you should call your dad already, we're on the freeway already, so if you don't want him to find you I think we're good."

He gave me his phone, and I grabbed it. I turned it on, but it was still locked.

"Is your password the same thing?"

"Yeah, you remember it?"

"I just remember a lot of useless information."

He just nodded. I put in the pin, and went to dial. My dad picked up during the 2nd ring.

"Hello?"

"Dad."

"Oh my god, Hope. Are you okay? Where are you?"

"I'm fine, I'm with Jaeden, he saw me and gave me a ride."

"Where are you?"

"In the car, dad, I'm fine. I'll get back by today, the latest is."

I looked at Jaeden, and he mouthed 11.

"Latest is eleven."

"And you'll be with Jaeden the entire time?"
