Chapter 4:

*Flashback*

Me and Mike were running all the way to the playground to celebrate our graduation from 5th grade.

"Finally" I said to myself. "no more from that annoying teacher." We were finally at the playground, and Mike wanted to go down the slide together. I agreed. So we went up and he was behind me holding on to my waist tightly while we went down the slide, as I was the one filled with cheer about summer being here.

Then later after that we just relax on the swings and watched the shy over our heads. "I just know this is gonna to be the coolest summer ever, right Arianna." He said smiling with that gap between his teeth. "Yup." I began to think about the first time we've ever met. I never questioned him about his little appearance over me, but now is the perfect time to ask. "Mike, I've meant to ask you something that's been meaning to ask you something that's been bothering me. When we first met you tried to kill me when I was trying to figure out why you were crying. So why did you wanna kill me and why did your voice changed after that?"

Mike begin to sweat and was started to think of something to say.

"Well, you see I uh...I have..."

"Mike just tell me, your my best friend and we always tell each other's secrets."

Mike was starting to get nervous and he couldn't control breathing properly, I started to think of something for him to calm down. "Mike, please relax. Take a deep breath." I said as I got up from the swing and standed right in front of him. He did what he was told while closing his eye's. "Good, now blow out the candle." I raised my arm up and lifted a finger in his face. And he blew in relief of breathing fresh air.

"Thanks, Ariy."

"Anything for my best friend." I said giving him a great big bear hug. Then I repeated the question again, but carefully. Then he finally answered with a lie, and I believed it.

"Okay, my...my mom putted me in acting class so I might have got into character on that day, sorry."

I could tell that he was lying just by looking at him, but I just went with it. Beside what's the worst that can happen. I sat back down on the swing and just signed, Mike began to swing back and forth repeatedly to high that he flew off in the air and landed on him face.

"MIKE!" I jerked right off and rushed to him.

"Mike, say something...Anything!" Mike gasp deeply and looked at me with his left eye squinted. He looked annoyed.

"Get off me you little wiper-snapper. What are you trying to do, robe an old man." He said but he's voice was different, not like before. He sounded like a grumpy old man, like my grandpa. He got up and brushed the dirt off his shirt with he's hands, and I kept looking at him with my mouth wide open.

"Close your mouth before bugs will fly in there ya brat."

I shut my mouth and started to laugh at Mike's acting, he's pretty good for a 11-year-old.

"Okay Mike joke's over, dude."

"Mike? I'm not Mike, I'm Chester and who are you, his girlfriend?"

"No, I'm his friend now can you stop playing around."

As I was talking to "Chester" I was starting to get flustered that Mike wouldn't stop the act.

"Look kid, I'm Chester got it. Jeez, I don't know who's more annoying, you or Vito, that knucklehead."

"Who Vito?" I asked and "Chester" told me that he's an italian tough guy that like's fight's and flirts with girl's. I blushed about Vito but I would like Mike to introduce me to him.

...

It was the afternoon and I was starting to get bored about hon Mike kept talking about how back in the day there was no T.V. or phones when he was little, I didn't get what he was saying since he is still little.

"Mike can you stop now I get it." But then he gasped for air and Mike had his eye's opened wide. I clapped with sarcasm and spoke. "Brava Brava bravissima, Mike are you done acting like an old man." Mike looked at me with curiosity and confusion, like as if he doesn't understand what I said. He rubbed the back of his neck and insisted that we go home.

It was getting dark anyway I guess. Me and Mike started walking back to our house and I was starting to get tired.

"So I'm guessing Chester is one of you character?"

"Ah yeah...I'm in a play and I have to act like an old man, haha." He said nervously.

Once we stopped at Mike's house we heard screaming and yelling from Mike parent's.

"I guess my dad is drunk again."

"Are you gonna be okay?" I asked, he grabbed both of my hands and stared into my eye's.

"Of course I will, as long as you my friend I will never feel alone."

Then he hugged me and went inside. "You'll always be my friend Mike."

*End od flashback*

"Ah, where am I?" I ask, when I was starting to wake up my head started hurting and my back was swore from when I fell backwards.

"Don't worry sweetheart you're in good hands now." The nurse said.

Zoey was sitting in a chair next to the bed. "Arianna, what happened? It's like you saw a ghost back there!" I felt like I did. "Don't worry about me, I'm fine." I said while getting up off the bed. "Anyway, I think I'm ready to go back to P.E. now."

"Uh gym is over, dude. Actually, school is over, you were knock-out for almost three periods."

Nice. Now I don't have to put up with those other teacher's. "Your brother is here to pick you up. He's outside waiting." I walked over to the window and saw my bro. I got all my stuff and I left the nurse's office without saying good-bye to Zoey.

...

I was in the car with Christen while looking at the window. I was thinking about Mike and how much he changed. I felt very depressed all of a sudden, I guess because Mike forgot about me and I bet that he feel alone. He doesn't need me to be his friend anymore. A warm tear fell down from my eye, and it was filled with sadness. It tasted like salt water. I will never forget all the memories that we had together.

~Christen P.O.V~

In the car, it was silent and awkward since Ariy hasn't said anything, and I felt weird about it. She looked very upset at something. Probably something at school happened to her, even if it was on the first day. "So, how was your first day?" I ask so we could have a conversation while I'm driving. "He was there." Arianna said. I looked at her once we were at a red stop light. "Who was there?" "Mike." It took me some time to refresh my memory, so while I was driving I kept trying to remember the name. Mike.

Once we got inside the house, I set the keys on the counter and sat on the coach like a fat-ass. All of a sudden I jumped off and screamed "I remember now." Ariy came in the living-room and nodded. "It took you that long." "Shut up, I remember him now, yo that kid was annoying at the beach when I invited him. A real pain in the ass."

"He was in character that day. And besides he changed." "Did you talk to him?"

"No."

She looked away from me and started straight down to the grown. "I'm afraid...that he wont remember me." She started to cry, then I got up and hugged her even tho she was so freaken small and I was tall. My mind was going through a lot of things to say now, but I found something. "You won't know unless you try." She looked up at me with her puppy dog eye's with tears and sniffled. "I don't...know, I...can't christen. I just can't." She continued to whimper. "You will soon, trust me. Besides I won't rush you."

"Thanks bro."

"But just incase, you should do it tomorrow." I said smiling, but she kneeled me in my crotch. A cried a bit. Ouch!

...

It was time for Ariy's bedtime and I was watching T.V. in the living room, when I heard knocking on my front door. I got up and check. Once I opened it, nobody was there, must be a prank and it was lame. But then there was a box on the floor. I went over and picked it up. When I opened it there was just a note inside and photo's of me and Ariy.

The note said:

You think you and her are safe, well think again.

You will be first and when I'm done with you, she will be next.

Watch your back, and sleep peacefully...your gonna need it.

From Anonymous.

Damn. Whoever did this is a real sick person, trying to scare me with this threat note. But what freaks me out is the photos. I went inside and locked the door. I burned the letter and the pictures in the fireplace to forget about it. It's just a prank, it's just a prank, nothing else. I hope.


Wow, I did it. sorry for the wait I was so into "Phantom of the Opera" and I saw the play on Broadway so I forgot about the story. Whoops, but I'm here. Haha
