Book one-chapter ten-"She what?"
Date: July 17, 2004

I got to the nature park crying my eyes out. I can't belive Mom thinks Bill would hurt me. He would never do that! I wandered around, not really knowing where to go. Oh! Bill told me about a treehouse Him and Tom had found and played in. If only I could remember where it was. I walked around and finally found it.

And someone in it. Tom. "Hi." I said quietly. Tom looked up cocked his head to the side.

"What are you doing here?" he asked. "Shouldn't you be in bed or something?"

I rolled my eyes and went in to sit beside him. "Your funny. My Mom thinks Bill hurt me..." It came out before I could stop it.

"She What?!" he almost yelled. I covered my ears and looked at him.

"Ouch?" I squeaked.

He looked down. "Sorry." came his mumbled response. I sighed.

"It's alright. We're leaving tomorrow." Why do I keep speaking without thinking?

"Bill won't like that..."

"I know. I just don't know what to do. I'm really mad right now."

Tom looked at me and said he could keep me company for a while. I smiled at him and said thank you.

-------------------------------------

"I fell asleep!" I gasped, jumping up. I can't belive this. I'm dead! I had woken up curled up to Tom and knowing I had to get home.

Tom had offered to get Simone to drive me because his house was closer but I had just ran, telling him to say bye to Bill for me.

I got home and was a little relived to find the rope still hanging from my window, which means Mom might not've found me missing yet. I climbed back up and ran to my door to move the dresser. I squirmed into my PJs and moved under the blankets, shoving the pillows under my head and turning towards the wall.

Mom opens the door then and I see the rope still hanging out the window. Luckliy, shes still mad and just says, "Time to get up. We're leaving soon." I heard the door shut. I stood back up and pulled the rope in, untying it and throwing it back in the closet.

-------------------------------------------------

I really hated my mother at this point. When Bill came over, she'd just shut the door saying that I couldn't see him. I looked out the window and saw the pained looked on his face as he walked away. I sighed and threw the last of my clothes in the bag.

-------------------------------------------------------

the airport was hectact. We were pushing threw people like there was no tomorrow. We finally got to the gate we were supposed to be at and sat down, waiting for a flight that wasn't schedualed to be here for another hour and a half.

"I have to pee." I told Mom, getting up. Mum grabbed my hand.

"You can't go alone."

"It's just over there." I said, pointing to the washroom not 10 feet away.

"Fine. But be carefull."

"Yeah, yeah." I walked away, towards the bathroom. I thought I saw a head of black spiky hair but then it was gone. I figured I was bothered by what Mom did so I was seeing things.

While I was washing my hands, someone else came in and I saw more black hair. As the door shut I shook my head. SEEING THINGS!!

No. I wasn't. When I walked out, someone's hand curled around my waist and pulled me back into a corner. I opened my mouth to scream. I was always paranoid about being kidnapped.

A hand appeared over my mouth and they leaned forward. "Don't scream. I'm already in alot of shit." I felt rather than saw the dreadlocks falling over my face. I spun out of the grip and faced Tom. He smirked. "Bill REALLY wishes he could be here but your lovely mother got the news to My mom before I could tell Bill. She believes Dawna."

"Great. Thanks Mom." I muttered quietly. Tom held out a small box.

"Bill bought this, and I don't know what it is. Even though I paid for it." He added.

I took it and opened it. A small book. "The little book of beautifu ryimes." I shook my head and shoved the book back into the box, then shoving the box into the pocket if my too-big sweater. "Tell him I said thanks."

Tom poked me in the middle of my forehead, something he'd did often. "I will. We'll all miss ya." He smiled and looked over my shoulder. "I better go. Bye" He spun and ran. I turned and saw my Mom weaving through the throng. I met her half way.

"Where have you been?" She asked

I grinned. "In the bathroom? Where else would I have been?" I followed her back to the seats, where Eric was kicking his legs back and forth.

Something in my gut told me this was NOT the last time I would be here.
