Chapter 1:
There was an almost eerie silence in the room. I felt like I'd been zapped into a horror movie. I stared at Trish, secretly begging her to speak. Coincidently, we both spoke at the same time. "Sorry you first."
I spoke as if we'd only just met. Was I kidding? I'd known Trish since- forever. I trusted her with my life.
"Ally!" She shouted, waking me up from my endless trail of thoughts.
She beckoned me to speak. There was no use. We could easily finish each other sentences now. That's what I loved about Trish. She was spontaneous- unpredictable. Now, it was obvious what ever she tried to say, I'd be thinking the exact same.
I shook myself out of, yet another daydream. I looked around the room, Trish glanced at me, holding my stare, for what felt like forever. I followed her eyes as she stared at the door. He was here, the last person I wanted to see.
"Um, hey.." What even was that? A response to nothing, seriously, what was I doing?
If the next few moments had continued for another second, I may have exploded. I didn't even know why we were silent. I mean it wasn't even like Austin knew. How would he?
I don't know why I was acting as if it was the end of the world. Why am I such a hypochondriac?
