CHAPTER 5: What Happened?
"Lil? Lil are you there?" Rachel screams into her cell phone. "Pick up! Please!"
"Ughhhh!" Rachel screams to herself, as she throws her phone down. She buries her head in her hands and a few minutes later her phone begins to ring. She quickly glances around the car to find it, and finally discovers it under the passengers seat.
"Hello? Lil?" Rachel asks hopefully.
"No, Rach, it's Violet. Are you okay?"
"Of course, why wouldn't I be?"
"I dunno.....but I just had this really bad feeling and...."
"ME TOO!" Rachel screams. "I think Lil might be in trouble."
"Lil?" Violet asks, confused.
"Yeah, I called the bar and her cell. She won't pick up."
"Yeah, that's because she's at the grocery store and she just called me on a payphone. She had a bad feeling too...."
"And Zoey?" Rachel asks.
"Yup, Zoey had the feeling too..." Violet replies sadly.
"So, if it's not Lil then it's......" Rachel starts saying softly.
"Cammie...." Violet finishes glumly.
"Hey, what did your feeling seem like?" Violet asks.
"It was a scary and sad one...." Rachel starts to say.
"Yeah, mine was too. It was almost a guilty feeling."
"Exactly." Rachel agrees.
"So what are you going to do?" Violet asks.
"OMG! We have to find her now!" Rachel shouts into the phone.
"Yeah, I know. Lil and Zoey are meeting me at the bar in an hour, and we're going to go to Cammie's apartment."
"Where are you now? Rachel asks, as she begins to drive.
"I'm still at Kevin's. I would go find Cammie now, but if Al's still there he might...."
"I don't even wanna know." Rachel interrupts.
Violet shudders. "How far away are you from here?"
"About 25 miles. I'll be at the bar as soon as I can ok?"
"Okay, be safe Rach."
"Yeah, right." Rachel replies, as she begins to speed up.
***********************************************
"Okay let's go!" Rachel screams out of her window, as she drives up to the bar and sees the other three girls outside.
"Geez, Rach." Zoey says, with a slight smile.
"Zoey! I can't believe you're are being so calm about this!" Rachel screams at her. "Are you friends with Cammie at all?"
"Chill, Rach." Zoey yells back at her. "I think we're making a big deal out of nothing. I'm sure Cammie's fine."
Rachel shakes her head in anger and disgust.
"I really think she's alright too but..." Violet starts to say.
"Better safe than sorry." Lil interrupts, as she jumps in the front seat of Rachel's black focus.
"You have had to say that a lot lately huh?" Violet giggles, as she opens the back door for Zoey.
"Believe me babe, I wish I didn't have to."
