It feels as if everyone is staring at me. Wait maybe that is because they are. I really want this day to end. No one has talked to me and even the people in the office were bitchy to me, gee I know where I am not wanted, and I am pretty sure it is here. I guess I am not wanted anywhere. Zeke hasn’t called me back and I am not even sure if he got the message. I will call him again tonight and hope to god he is home because I want someone to talk to. There isn’t really anyone here the only people I know are those Hanson’s and it’s not as if I really know them, or trust them enough to spill out my soul. Oh well. I welcomed the last bell of the day and rushed out of the school building. It was such a nice day out, even though it was about 56 degrees out, I was glad that I got to walk home. As I was walking up the street that lead to my street a green Jeep pulled up next to me and slowed to a stop. <p> “Hey, Want a ride?” Someone said from inside the car. I looked into the car and say Taylor sitting at the driver’s seat. <p> “Umm, I guess so, “ I said hesitant at first then I hopped into the passenger seat. <p>“ I was going to your house anyway so I thought since I saw you walking I would offer you a ride. “ He smiled and put the car into gear and drove up the street. <p> “That was very nice of you” I smiled and put on my seat belt even though I could see my house from where we were. But you never know. Taylor pulled into my driveway. <p> “So, How was school?” He smiled and put the car into park. <p> “I wanted to shoot myself” <p> “Are you always so negative about everything?” I looked over at him. <p> “Are you always so happy about everything?” He didn’t answer and got out of the car. <p> “So why are you here anyway?” I asked him. <p> “Isaac didn’t go quite a good job fixing that sink, so I thought that I would come over and give it a try.” He said opening the door for me. I smiled and walked in. <p> “Well don’t break anything, I am going to go up to my room and unpack a bit, umm, I would say call me if you need anything but I have a feeling that I will need your help finding stuff.” I said turning around and walked up the 2 flights of stairs. <p>“What to do what to do” I paced around my room and decided to actually do something productive, like get all the junk out of the boxes scattered around my room. Then after that I would do my cool science homework. I opened the first box and took out some of the things, I came to a picture of Calista and I during the summer, and we were at a camp smiling with our arms around each other. I set it on my bedside table. I set all of the stuff that was going to go on my wall in a pile, to keep me from crying. I knew that getting away from home wouldn’t make the hurt go away, but I thought it would at least make it stop hurting for a bit. I had a sudden urge to talk to Zeke, I stood up and walked over to the phone and dialed his number, it rang 3 times. <p> “Hello?” <p> “Hi, Zeke?” <p> “Yes, Who is this?” <p> “It’s Aly!” <p> “Oh Hi Babe, Are things going ok?” <p> “Yeah, but I miss you, it is weird here with no one to talk to everyday.” <p> “Oh, well….” He paused. “ I miss you too. Things just aren’t the same, Well I am sorry to cut you off, but call waiting, I will call you later, mom gave me your number to you later.” <p> “Ok, ok Hun, love..” he hung up the phone before I could finish, I put the phone back on the receiver, feeling a little rejected, it would pass. I sorted through he rest of the box, most of it was stuff to go on the wall. Next box was clothes. I started to hang some things up when I heard Taylor yell my name. I jogged down the stairs and into the kitchen. <p>“You rang?” <p>“Yeah, I wanted to know if you wanted to come to dinner, with Isaac, Zac and I, we were going to go get some subs at the restaurant up the street from our house.” I thought about it, I had nothing better to do, the only thing I HAD to do was my homework, and I wasn’t going to jump at any chance to do that. <p>“Yeah, sure, just let me get ready” <p>“Alright I will call the guys” And I ran up the stairs. <br><br> <a href=http://www.angelfire.com/nh/linsey/index.html>Home</a> </body> </html>
