Chapter Ten

(Ian's P.O.V)

I didn't know how to tell her. So instead I convinced myself it would be easier I told her, when we do our parts as Romeo and Juliet. So I would wait till Monday, it was Saturday morning, so I could wait. I told CJ to go to sleep, but she wouldn't, she was tired of sleeping, or whatever that was. I went to sleep. And she went to clean herself up. I couldn't stop thinking of how I was gonna tell her.

(Gabe's P.O.V)

I woke up to hear someone in the shower. I turned to see who was missing. Ian and Suki were sleeping. Could it be CJ? I shook Suki until she woke up. I explained to her what happened. We were gonna wake Ian up, but he hadn't slept for days, waiting for CJ to wake up. So we waited , anxiously, wanting to see our friend. The door opens and we see CJ awake. We run to her and we had a group hug, without Ian.

(CJ's P.O.V)

I took a warm, slow, and cleansing shower. I brushed my teeth clean and my hair extra-soft. I felt clean and peaceful again. I got out of the restroom and found Gabe and Suki awake, staring at me fondly. We had a group hug, without Ian, because he was sleeping so calmly. Suki and Gabe had told me that he never left my side. I thought it was romantic, sorta, and he deserved a good sleep. So to not wake Ian up, we went for a walk in the park.

(Ian's P.O.V)

(Having a dream, but he doesn't know, yet.) I walked into my room, and saw CJ sitting down on my bed, brushing her hair. I sat down next to her and grabbed her hand. What was I doing? She turned to look at me with those adorable eyes, and I melted. " Do. Do you, hum wanna go with. with me to dinner" I stuttered, that was embarrassing, I was stuttering, I have never had that problem. "Yeah, that would be awesome" she said. Then it skipped. It was eight o'clock. We were walking in the restaurant. She looked amazing. She was wearing a white belted dress. It looked amazing on her. I pulled the chair out for her, and she took a seat. Okay now what? Do I order or does she choose? "What do you want to eat?" " I think we should eat .spaghetti, thats what its called right? I heard it was good." "Yeah, its good". I ordered spaghetti for us. When our meals arrived, I saw Blake. He walked towards us and asked CJ to go with him. She refused. I was gonna get him out of here, but I accidentally tripped over CJ's chair, making her go right into the spaghetti. She screamed, it was all over her. She stood up, walked past me, and left with Blake. She walked out the restaurant, and suddenly she was wearing something else. That's when I realized, this is a dream. I looked up to see CJ and Blake having a good time. What if she didn't like me? I was gonna walk towards them, but then I fell off my bed. I woke up to see my bedroom all alone. Where was everyone? I checked in the living room, and the kitchen. There not there. I asked my mom if she knew where they went, but where were they? And why would they leave without me?

Ian goes out looking for them crazy. He figures they would come back, but still goes out to look for them. He tried Gabe's house, they weren't there. Then he goes to the park.

(CJ's P.O.V)

We walked all the way to the park with Gabe talking about what I missed, at school. Then Suki asked "What had happened to you". I didn't know how to tell her. " It all started when I couldn't sleep. I just couldn't sleep. I was up until four or five in the morning. Then I just fell asleep and couldn't wake up" I said not wanting to tell her. She took a seat in back of me, next to a tree. She hugged her knees, then rested her head on her knees. Ian was walking towards us. He saw me and Gabe. Then he walked towards Suki. "Its okay Suki, its not your fault" he told her. "Whats not my fault?" She asked Ian picking up her head. Ian turned to look at me, then he walked towards a tree, and I followed. "You didn't tell her?" Ian asked sort of annoyed. "I. I don't know how to. I just don't know how to tell her without hurting her feelings." I said looking down at my hands and wanting to cry. "Its okay, we can tell her together" I looked up to him and read him, I saw regret, sorry, and confidence, that helped me get through it. "Okay, let's go" I said a little too confident.

(Suki's P.O.V)

Ian and CJ came back from talking, I wonder what they were talking about. They came back together, and stood in front of me."Suki, we need to talk about what happened to CJ" said Ian. "Well I have no idea what it could have been, I haven't even heard what happened" I said turning to CJ. " I.i don't know how to tell you, I wanted to tell you but, please don't be mad at me for not telling you, its just a just a dream. I think" CJ said her eyes swelling up with tears. I nodded. She told me the whole story from seeing the yellow elevator to the part where my dad slaps her. Why does he want me back? He put me here in the first place. I just don't know what to think anymore. What if shes lying to us again? But she wouldn't, we're best friends, right?

But she kept it from me. She didn't want to tell me, that's what her and Ian where talking about. Should I be mad at her? I don't know what to think about her or my dad, I don't know if I can trust her or she can trust me, anymore.

(CJ's P.O.V)

After I told Suki what had happened, I waited for her to say something. She was so quiet, I wanted her to say its okay I trust you, but she never did. Then I read her. I saw anger, sadness, and confusion, but all of it was because of me. She was thinking if she should trust me. To talk to me. She doubted me, but why shouldn't she, I tried to keep it from her. But, but I did it for her. Not because I was told to. I just wanted to get away from everything, from her because she was thinking bad about me. Her because she was my best friend and I couldnt be near her thinking she would hate me. I just couldn't. So I ran. I ran away from her. From her and her thoughts. From my friends, that I cared so much for. I heard footsteps following me. I ran faster, trying to get away. I ran so fast I couldn't even see what something was or if just was a blur. Then I tripped. And I blanked out.
