"Duck, duck, duck, goose!" I tap Walker on the head and take off as fast as my tiny legs can carry me… okay I'm not that small but I am a couple inches shorter than Walker. He's so gonna catch me but, eh, whatever.

"Get her Walker!" Joey yells

"Come on Sarah!" AJ claps. Again I feel Ali glaring at me. I thought she didn't care. Uh oh. Anyone else feel foreshadowing?

He got me. I laugh at his victory dance. I'm NOT going to describe it, "I hate you, Walker!"

"Oh you know you love me!"

"Nope"

"Not even a little?"

"Uh uh"

"Then what if I do… this!" He lunges at me. His fingers begin exploring my ribs causing me to laugh uncontrollably. In case you haven't gotten it, I'm a little ticklish.

"Ok Ok I love you, Walker now stop!"

"Oki doki loki," Walker releases me and hugs me.

"YOU ARE NOT WORTHY OF PINKIEPIE!" Matt, Nick, and I yell at the same time. I've known they love My Little Pony, but apparently they didn't know that about me. They both look at me like B man looks at Robin. Oh crap.

"We're like long lost brothers who found each other," Nick and Matt start. I'm a girl

"And love each other like family," I give in. What the heck.

"Although we're not related"

"And it's totally belated"

"I'm elated just to say you are my bro"

"Mi Amigo"

"And where I go"

"Is where we go"

"And it feels as though it was destined to be so"

"So very nice"

AJ stands and slips his hand into mine. I smile at him, "You are my bright knight"

"You're my morning bird" His voice is so amazing

"We're wing men singing in thirds" Our voices blend together. Wait a minute…

"AJ, what about Young Frankenstein?"

"I'm going back tomorrow…" He looks down at his shoes.

My eyes begin watering. I don't want him to go. Great. Second time I've cried over him today, except this time it's not acting in a water gun fight. I pull my hand out of his causing him to look up. His eyes are watering too. I can't do it.

My feet take me out the door of the manor and down the street; I can hear all the StarKids yelling after me, except AJ. I've never run this fast, and I never want to stop. I do enjoy running. I mean, I did cross country last year. Running is a way for me to escape, and right now I just want to run home.

I love AJ and I don't want him to leave. I know it's his job, but I'm going to miss him. I've only known him for a couple hours, but they all feel like family. I feel like I've known them my whole life.

"Sarah, wait! Come on! Slow down! God you're fast! Sarah!" Joey calls after me.

I snap my head back to him, "And what about you, huh? You're going to have to go back to California eventually! And what about Darren? He's on Glee so he probably has to leave, like tomorrow! And Bonnie isn't even a StarKid anymore! I love you all so much, but why are y'all here!? Why did you come?! Why did you even want me if you all are going to leave in a week? You all have careers going, why do you care about me, some stupid thirteen year old girl who will just get in your way! WHY AM I HERE!?"

"You know, I thought you would be perfect for us. We all thought that you would be thankful that we all came to see you and make you feel welcome. We thought you would enjoy being with us. We wanted to make you happy. I thought you were a beautiful girl who looked really sweet and accepting, but I guess I was wrong. You sound like you don't want to be here. You act like you're not thankful. If you're disappointed with us, then just go back to your redneck state where you can take care of your toothless father and abusing brother. See if I care what happens to you because you are just a selfish little bratty southern chick who cares about no one but herself. So just go back, we apparently made a mistake. Maybe we'll go see if we can find that Kira girl. Anyone would be better than an ungrateful piece of sh t like you. Just go home, Sarah. Just go. GO!"

I turn and run. What happened to my friend forever?
