FORGOTTEN
Ch 1- Just tell you
"The graduating class of 2015!" said Adam Young as he finished announcing the graduates. Everyone stood and clapped for the graduating students. Adam just stood at the podium grinning at his students, especially one in particular. She-as in Echo- stood there, completely lost to the world, grinning back at him.
After everyone had left, it was just Adam and Echo. Standing in the quad. He walked up to her and said,
"Great job Echo."
"Yeah." she said sadly.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"I'm gonna miss you . . . and all of this." she quickly corrected, "I'm gonna miss Tater and Slab and Dang and Derby . . . even Ivy."
"Hey, don't even think, for one second that I'm not gonna miss you too. You guys get to move on. I'm gonna be stuck here waiting . . ."
"For what?"
"For me to stop chickening out and just. . . . tell you."
"Tell me what?"
"I-"
"Echo!" a man and woman shouted in unison.
"Echo!" they shouted again as they ran up to Echo and Adam.
"Oh Echo! There you are! We've been looking all . . . o . . . ver . . . for. . . you. Uhh . . . who's this?" said Mr. Zizzleswift.
"Uhh . . . Adam, these are my parents. Mom, Dad, this is Adam Young." said Echo.
"The science teacher!"Mr. Zizzleswift yelled
"Yep."Echo and Adam said in unison
"How old are you?" asked Mr. Zizzleswift
"17."
"17!" the Zizzleswift adults shouted in unison.
"Yes, Mr. and Mrs . . . ?" he replied "Zizzleswift."
"Zizzleswift? What kind of name is that? German? Dutch?"
"How the heck should I know? I was just born with it." he said as he started to walk away.
"Echo, we'll be in the car." said Mrs. Zizzleswift. They left, muttering about how Tater would hire anyone.
"Okay Dad." said Echo, "Well, I'd better get goin'." She started to walk away when he shouted,
"Wait!"
But she didn't turn around
"I . . . I love you."Adam whispered
