What's up my people! I'm back!
RYDER'S POV
It's been a week. But it feels like years.
A week of walking in to class, hoping that she's there. And being disappointed.
A week of going home and wondering why she isn't there. Worrying if she's okay.
A week since I've seen Dawn.
Before she left my house, she said she'd be there the next day. I only asked to make sure because she seemed... worried or, i don't know, paranoid?
"Hey man!" Beau said, clamping a hand on my shoulder.
"You alright?" He asked.
"Yeah. Fine." I said, smiling and throwing away my thoughtful and frustrated expression.
We continued our wall to school in a comfortable silence.
Maybe she'll be there today!
"So, guess what!" Beau says excitedly.
"You grew a vagina over night?" I guessed.
"Okay, just because I'm," he pauses, taking a deep breath.
"Dude, i was joking. Don't be a pansy." I say, shoving him, "Anyways, what was it?"
"Well, you know how my mom is not really one hundred percent okay with my," he takes a breath, "choice, I guess you could say?"
"Yeah."
"We had a talk about it last night. She said she's cool with it all!" he says, a huge smile spreading on his face.
"Nice, man!" I say, giving him a fist bump.
We walked past the house that I'm planning on visiting after school.
The truck that belongs to her mom and dad is there. I haven't seen it in a few weeks. Where have they been? Or did one stay home and the other go? Either way, where were they?
We arrived at school, and I rushed to my locker.
Maybe she's here! What if she is? But what if she isn't? Oh man! I just want to see her! She's gotta be here today! She's already missed 3 days, this would be 4 of she isn't!
My mind was racing with thoughts as I ran to class.
Wow... Never thought I'd do or say that.
I ran in the classroom, and looked at her desk, hoping to see her, in her hoodie with her hair acting as a curtain to her face, as her head hangs low.
But was, yet again, disappointed to see an empty desk.
I let out a breath of air, as my shoulders slumped down.
I walked toy desk, and sat down, opening my notebook.
I looked at the notes for this class and started reading them, trying to keeps mind off of what could have possibly happened to Dawn.
