Hello everyone! Im back with another chapter! It's not my finest piece of work, but it will do. I was stumped on what to do for this chapter, so I started reading a bunch of other stories to get inspiration. And wow, now i figured out a whole story plan! The new picture gives major spoilers, so maybe some of you might figure out whats going to happen. Then you will think ive gone crazy. But we will get back to that another time! )

Enjoy!

[chapter prologue]

The world is perfect. Or so I thought. Everything was great in life, it had been a few months. No problems, no nothing. Just happiness. Until he told me a secret that I thought was harmless. It would change my life forever.

What now? I had the best of friends and the best… uhh... Phil and I weren't officially boyfriend and girlfriend. I want it to happen sooner or later. I was sitting in front of my mirror in my home brushing my hair. I was humming to myself. Ever since we played that game of truth or dare about three months ago, I've worked on my singing. I really enjoyed it.

"Those were some fun times." I said to myself, remembering the game.

I've been trying to figure out why Phil got all upset when I talked about the aliens abducting us, and you would probably think:

'oh, he is just remembering the bad stuff that happened,' but his expression is more like he is thinking about the present and future instead of the past. If that makes any sense to you. But whenever I mention anything even similar, he changes the topic. Oh well. I should probably give up now.

Also the school still isn't in session, we have no idea what happened to the teachers. Maybe they moved? Or maybe they were so confused, they still haven't figured anything out. They weren't the best anyway.

I put down my brush and picked up my phone and texted Phil, Zack, and Phred in our group chat.

Hey, you guys doin anything 2day? -SS

I put my phone down and walked away to put my brush away and get changed. I put on a red tank top and blue pants, then I heard my phone buzz.

Nada. -ZK

A few seconds later, Phil replied.

Should we meet up again? I'm bored and have nothing to do. -PE

Sure! But where? should we meet by the tree again like we usually do? -SS

Nyeeaahhhh -PW

Whoops. I think we woke up Phred.

Srry Phred. Didn't mean to wake u. -PE

Nyeah. Don't care. Wats done is done. Where r we going? -PW

To the tree in the field Phred. Dude it's like, 11 a.m and your still asleep? -ZK

Im awake now. -PW

Okay... So I'll meet you there at noon? -SS

Sure. -PE

Cya. -ZK

'Okay, now I have to just get everything all ready. Hmm there's really nothing for me to bring.'

I decided to just grabbed my phone and decided to get there early. Way early. So I started walking over.

I soon neared the field. And I saw someone there. And I thought I was early! Who else would come here this early?

"Oh, hey Smiley. I didn't expect you to come this early."

It was Phil already there. He was just sitting down underneath the big tree looking at the sky. It wasn't the brightest of days, I've seen better but it wasn't so bad. The clouds were still white but it was hard to see the sun. The weather was changing, and we would get some showers. The leaves on the tree were starting to change colour.

"Phil. How'd you get here so fast?" I asked. Phil lived a farther distance away, and I didn't see him coming, so how could he have gotten here so fast?

"Oh, I here the whole time. I like to be alone and think about things." Phil answered.

"Like what?" I asked.

"Like, uh..." Phil started. He cut himself off.

"Come on Phil you can tell me." I said.

"Um..." Phil said. There was obviously something wrong.

"Can we not talk about this?" Phil asked.

I didn't know if this was his big secret or not, but it certainly seemed like it.

"Phil, we are going to talk about this. there's something wrong and I want to help. We're alone. You can tell me." I said determinedly.

Phil just sat there in scilence.

"So are you going to tell me or not? I asked.

"Okay. I'll tell you, but you can't tell a single soul." Phil said.

"I swear." I promised. He was obviously very serious about it, so I wanted to keep this promise.

"Okay. Umm, I don't really know how to say this but... Ever since we umm... When we got captured, I blamed myself for all of the things that went wrong. The aliens wanted to know if humans were bad or not, so they set a trap or something, like I told you guys, and I walked into the trap. I made them think humans were bad." Phil paused. "I almost froze the planet!"

I had no idea he was this serious about it. I would think it was just bad luck, but Phil is taking it personaly, and now I'm starting to think the same things as him.

"It was just bad luck." I tried reassuring him. "The Earth is fine, because of you."

"I almost made them destroy humanity. It wouod have been my fault if the planet was lost. I put everyone in danger, I put you in danger. It's all my fault Smiley." Phil said.

"It's not your fault. It was you who got us out of this mess too." I said.

"I don't want this ever happening again."

"It won't. You have to learn to let go of the past. Just forget about all this." I said.

"Okay. Thanks Smiley, for letting me tell you this." Phil said.

"It's all right." I said, giving him a hug. "I'll help you. We can learn to let go together." I said.

"Okay. That would be alright." Phil said, hugging me back.

I knew this conversation was far from over, but it was a start. I would just have to help him get through his troubles. This is only the beginning of my story.

"This is only the beginning of my story..."

How very true those words will be... Okay, thus isn't the best chapter I posted, and I was planning it to have some other things, but I think I will save it for next chapter.

Peace out!
