This goes along with my other twoshot, Forgotten. You don't have to read the other one to understand this. I really hope you like it and I'm sorry it took me so long to put up.

Gabriella POV
I walked away from my house not looking back. My green backpack slung over my back. I was running away.
There was nothing happening in me life, no excitement. Most people would want a life without a lot of dream but that's what I wanted. So, I packed a bag full of a couple of sets of clothes and some food that wouldn't rot easily.
When I reached my destination no one was there. I looked at the rusting metal of the equipment and sat on the slide. Wind blew through the park making the metals squeak.
What would my mom do when she found out I was gone? What would Troy do?
Troy, he was my best friend. He is my best friend. I loved him, but no one knew. People always said that we are perfect for each other, each time I blush but he ignores it. I hope he would try and come and find me. Maybe someone does care about me.
I got up and walked towards a little bridge that was barely two feet off the ground. Thunder filled the air as I looked up. Storm clouds were coming in. I ran and grabbed my bag, searching for somewhere to hide. There was one of those things that you crawl through, it was big enough to fit me comfortably, as comfortable as you can get in those at least.
I reached down and pulled out my old notebook, it is filled with songs that I have written, songs that I started but never finished.
I flipped to a new page and started writing, pouring my heart out into words.
I'm Standing on a bridge
I'm waitin' in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound
Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
I pulled my jacket closer to my body as a breeze swept through the park. It was getting darker by the second. The moonlight reflected off the metal. I looked up a little, as much as I could. I was almost done raining, hopefully it wouldn't start again.
I looked down and began to think about the next verse. This would probably be one of my best songs. Suddenly it came to me, I wrote it down before I forgot it which has happened a lot.
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I... I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know
Cause nothings going right
And everything's a mess
And no one likes to be alone
Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
Surely someone would have noticed that I was gone. I hadn't told my mom anything, I had just walked out. She had been in the kitchen making dinner when I walked out. The radio was blasting so I don't think heard the door close.
Knowing my mom she probably tried to call the police but I know how they work. They won't send someone out until they are missing for over twenty four hours. Taylor, my best friend had gone out shopping and left a message on her mom's phone telling her. Her mom hadn't checked her messages and thought that she had gone missing, but when she called the station no one would come out.
Taylor went home that night to find her mother sobbing into her fathers arms about how she had lost her baby. Her mom went to the station to apologize for yelling at them and brought cookies, stale or not.
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I... I'm with you
I'm with you
Oh why is everything so confusing
maybe I'm just out of my mind
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahhhhhh
A play Tunnel! That's what I'm laying in right now. I remember playing on these when I was little. I saw a kid get stuck in one and didn't go near them for a month. Te kid was pretty big though.
It's a damn cold night
trying to figure out this life
Wont you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I... I'm with you
I'm with you
Take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I... I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you (2x)
I quickly finished the song and put my notebook up. It had been at least another thirty minutes and no had even come by, not even a car passing by. Maybe no one noticed that I was actually gone. That hurt, a lot.
I laid my head down on the small pillow that I had out into my backpack and let myself drift off into a deep sleep, maybe someone would come while I was sleeping.
What did you think? Please review and tell me what you thought. The next chapter should be up in two or three days.
