We walked down to the corner before I realized I had no idea where we were going. "Um, mind telling us where we're going Will?"
"My old house," he said. "She might go back there looking for me or my dad." She being his mother. It seemed logical, but I wasn't sure.
She was so afraid of those men. She didn't understand that Will wasn't there, so it seemed like it would be a possibilty for her to go back there. But, somehow, I knew that we wouldn't find her there.
I nodded and trailed behind him. Meanwhile Sydney ran up from where she had been tying her shoe. "Marina?"
"Yeah?!" I answered annoyed.
"Are you really mad I came with you guys?" she asked sadly.
"No, what ever gave you THAT idea," I retorted sarcastically.
She let out her breath, shook her head, and walked faster. I felt a little bad, naturally. I wouldn't give in to feeling guilty though. 'It's not MY fault she's coming along.' I thought angrily. We stopped at the bus stop and sat on the bench. Sydney talked to Will with her head tilted to one side, like a sparrow. She acted like it was some feild trip and Will was just another boy to flirt with. Will actually seemed to be listening though... Normally he would just nod and look past her at a tree or something but his time he was listening intently. His eyes looking into hers trying to understand the meaning of her words. I looked away disgusted. The bus pulled up and I grabbed my pack and said a bit angrily, "Come on, let's go."
Will looked up sharply at my harsh tone. He looked a bit confused but stood up and got on the bus. Syd walked over and was about to get on, but I cut her off and got on first. I followed Will down the bus' aisle and we found a seat near the back. Sydney squeezed in next to me and Will.
a/n ok ok, i know. this is EXTREMELY short. i will post the rest later. i just thought that since i hadn't posted anything forever, something is better than noting...
