"Hello?" I said during my phone conversation with Hayes

"BABE?! YOUR.." crrrrch. I think his phone dropped...

"hello, Hayes? are you there?" I asked

"NASH!! NASH! CARA WOKE UP! SHE WOKE UP! SHE WOKE UP!" Hayes chanted.

"BENJAMIN HAYES GRIER!" I shouted into my phone. Hello? Yeah I still exist you know?!

"BABY?! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" Hayes said adorably.

"D'aaaawwwww, babe I missed you a lot... Maybe we could catch up when I see you. Right?" I asked

"YES!.... But there's one thing stopping us... I'm in LA with Nash for another week... I promise, once I return, I'm visiting my gorgeous girlfriend!" Hayes cooed.

When the words, 'gorgeous girlfriend' slipped out his mouth, it sent a chilling sensation down my spine. I missed him.

"Face time me later then. I haven't seen you in a long time... Bye baby"

Next call, would be to Veronica.

"CARA?!! CARA?! YOU WOKE UP?! IM SO EXCITED!!" Veronica screamed into her phone, which numbed my ears.

"YEAH! You weren't at school for the past two days.. I WANNA HANG WITH MY BEST FRIEND!" I blurted. I don't want to be alone

"Awww, Cara. My grandmother passed away so I'm with family in Arkansas for the next week... I MISSED YOU SO MUCH" Veronica sadly said.

"Okay face time and Skype me whenever you can, love!" I said

WOW. Everyone is gone... Blaire and Claire won't be any different I'm guessing.

Ring. Ring.. RRRRRRR. The consistent ringing sounded like a rolling r, rolling in an infinity circle.

It drove me nuts.

"Hello?" a weak voice said.

"Blaire, put this on speaker." I said. Wasn't she ecstatic that I was okay?

"Oh okay" her voice replied.

"ITS CARA. IM ALIVE!" I shouted and rejoiced

"OH MY GOS--" Two simultaneous hoarse voices replied..

"Sorry we're very very sick. We're losing our voic--" Claire replied as she cleared her stuffed throat.

Poor babes.

"D'aaaawwwww I'm so sorry to hear that, honey!" That sucked. I'm well and my friends are ill.

"We missed y--!" I heard the sound of vomiting.. Wow they must've been really sick.

The call got disconnected.

Guess who's gonna be a loner for the last bit of 8th grade?

Me.
