Chapter 3
Robbie handed the glass of water he held to Jade she sat on a chair clutching Cats hand there where tears in her eyes as she stared hard at the floor
"Th...that could have been me, I had been standing right there!"
"shhhh" Cat hushed her friend "you don't need to think about it, it was just a freak accident that's all" the red head pulled Jade into a hard cuddle as Robbie paced the floor waiting for some answers as to what could have possibly just ended their lives.
Lane was doing the rounds trying to comfort as many of the shaken up kids as he could from what he gathered something about a purple burst of light darted from the sky and landed right on Jades car crushing it to a pulp.
Sure california was known for its earthquakes but this was beyond anything he'd ever heard.
Robbie stood chatting to Trina Vega across the room from what Cat could hear it was about Tori and her tour, Cat studied her male best friend as he talked she had known Robbie since pre-school endless days where spent playing pirates and dress up in each others back gardens, it was probably where their love of acting came from, there had always been a strong connection between the two, some form of energy nothing could break but still they remained just friends, they had shared kisses and cuddles their late night conversations usually crossed the barrier of just friends but still Cat denied her feelings for the curly haired teen.
She had seen first hand what relationships ending could do to a friend ship witnessing Beck and Jades messy third split, she didn't want to risk that for her and Robbie no matter what.
A moment of noticeable silence that fell over the room brought Cat back to reality the once brightly lit theatre room was plunged into an unusual darkness all the music had stopped and people talked in a low whisper.
"This is the second power cut this week" a junior student muttered to her friend beside her.
Jade gripped Cats hand even harder, Cat was one of few people to know Jades fear of the dark she never dare let it show to anyone but the chirpy Red head. Cat stoked Jades hand softly lulling her into a calm.
Sometime later Sikowitz strolled into the room to the front standing on a box he announced that out of safety of the students they where sending them home the police hadn't been able to tell them anything about what happend to the car but they where calling in "experts" to examine the situation.
Cat left Jade to ask Robbie would he drive them all back to her and Sams place, the thought of Jade being alone at her apartment didn't sound like a good idea Robbie gave Trina a quick goodbye and headed off to help walk Jade to his car.
The drive home was silent until Robbie had the idea to switch on the radio but the only sound that came out was a broken news report and lots of static, it distracted his driving after a while so he switched it off, he looked over at Cat biting her lip and playing with her jewelry in that way when she was scared or nervous. He placed a free hand on hers but she pulled it away almost instantly
Inside she was praying Sam would still be at home and had not gone out for lunch with Freddie yet.
