I wasn't planned

Chapter 7

Note: my chapters are now longer :)
{KATY'S POV}
The moon had set over me, for it had started to get dark and I still had no clue where I was. I've been sitting next to the little pine tree for quite a while. I'd been running from sunset to now, how ever long that is, taking mini breaks in between. I didn't have my phone, so I was really on my own. I was starting to get hungry, for I had been out since around noon with nothing to eat, but two sips of a Starbucks. I started to pay attention to the scenery, it was beautiful, you don't see much of this in LA. Or if I still am in SoCal, I had no clue. Sudden breezes would come by ever so often, which was chilling, considering I was still only in my under sweat clothes. I got up, as I wiped the dirt off my butt and started walking again, you can only find the right way out, if you take the step.
{SHANNON'S POV}
Katy still isn't responding. David said he thought she came over here to my house, but nope, no crazy lady to be seen anywhere. I tried calling everyone I could, but they all pretty much went to voicemail, considering the fact it was almost midnight.

{KATY'S POV}
I had made it to this hill, having a overlook of the overly populated, city. I had recognized this place; of course! It was Santa Barbara. I know this hill too, for I used to come down here, just to relieve some stress I might have been having at times, the only other person I'd take up here was; A-

"Oh, hi" I heard a manly voice behind me, I was scared to look back, maybe they have caught up with me? I didn't look back, but I did reply

"Hi" I made a plain reply. Whoever it was, started walking towards me

"Beautiful, ain't it?" He said as he sat down, somewhat close to me.

"Yeah" I said, agreeing

"My formal friend, Katy, she showed me this place a while back when we were still in middle school" the man said. Now I was almost positive it was the people that took me, because I showed a guy in middle school this hill, which very little people know about. I looked over at him, because at this point in time, it didn't really matter, I was caught either way. Then I saw it, Alex's eyes looking out into the city, he hadn't noticed me staring yet, but I didn't want him to notice either. I hope he wasn't the psycho man. He soon looked at me, like he had read my mind.

"K-k-Katheryn?" He asked amazed.

"Mhmm" I was honestly speechless, I had nothing to respond with, I didn't want this to turn into one of those dramatic movies.

"Remember me?" He asked, hoping I would.

"Alexander Anderson." I stated, acting like a know-it-all, not even looking at him as I answered, but at the view

"So you do remember?" He giggled

"8th grade. Worst year ever" I said, jokingly

"Come on, I couldn't have made it that bad!" he pleaded

"The only thing good was when we were in cooking--making hummus, and you forgot to put the lid on the blender and chickpeas got all over Mrs. Ireland" I smirked

"NOT FUNNY" he defended himself

"It is to me" I said calmly getting up, wiping my butt from any access dirt

"Why leave so soon?"

"I told a friend I'd be at her house by eight, and it looks to me like its way past eight." I said looking at my boney wrist, pretending there was a watch.

"Who? I'll drive you, if you need it" he said, hoping I would go

"Shannon, but she lives in LA if that's fine with you" I said. I don't know how long I was in that van for, but if must have been a while if we traveled from Irvine to Santa Barbara
