CHAPTER 8: FINDING DANI...

DANI'S P.O.V.

I could barely see where I was going, because of the tears streaming down my face.

I didn't know where I was headed, I just knew that I had to get out of there...get away from D.J. before I did something I knew I would regret.

I hadn't been paying attention to where I was going and was surprised to find myself in front of my Grandma Julia's house.

I had questioned earlier who I could talk to and thought I had ruled everyone out, but I had never thought of my Grandma Julia.

I couldn't move...so I just leaned my head against the steering wheel and cried harder.

I know mom and dad are probably worried, but I can't face them right now.

I looked to where I usually put my cell phone and realized I had must have left it at home on my desk.

Finally I managed to pull the key from the ignition and get out. I locked my car, made my way to Grandma's front door and knocked.

At first there was no answer and I thought she wasn't home, but the door finally opened...

Grandma seemed surprised to see me.

I wondered if she had heard the news about D.J. and Callie.

"Dani, what's wrong?" Grandma asked as she stepped back to let me inside. "Everything..." Was all I could say.

INSIDE JULIAFELDMAN'S HOUSE...

"What do you mean everything?" Grandma asked as we sat down on her couch.

"Did you hear about Callie and D.J.?" I asked, fighting back tears again and now I was also exhausted. "Yes, I heard last night." Grandma told me.

"That's all everyone has been talking about. They never mention me in any of the conversations. It's like I'm...

Invisible or something,

No one cares how I feel about any of this. So I have to tell everyone I'm okay with everything that is going on.

I can't stand it anymore and I just want to forget it all...at least for one night. I can't stay at home and listen to any more of it right now." I confessed looking at my hands.

I was now too tired to yell, but I still wanted to hit something...more like someone. I still had that feeling of wanting to punch my twin brother.

"Do Marty and Kensi know where you are?" Grandma asked and I just shook my head. "No, I just left and didn't know where I was going, until I ended up here." I answered.

"I think we need to call them and let them know that you are here." Grandma told me and I looked at her.

"I can't go home tonight, Grandma." I insisted and could hear the pleading in my voice.

"I didn't say that you had to go home...just that you had to let Kensi and Marty know where you are. You can stay here...at least for tonight, but Dani you cannot run away when from things when they get tough. You will have to face them sooner or later." Grandma informed me.

"I know, grandma. Could you talk to mom, please? I don't feel like talking to anyone else right now." I whispered and watched as grandma went to get the phone.

I heard her talking and it didn't take long, before I felt my eyes closing.

D.J.'S P.O.V.

The phone rang and mom snatched it up...

"Hello...mom...Is she okay...all right..."

I watched as mom gave a sigh and a small smile at dad.

"...all right...thank you mom...I know we need to sit down and talk to her...I know...all right...see you tomorrow." Mom said hanging up the phone.

"Is Dani okay?" Dad asked. "My mom said that Dani seemed a little better after talking to her. She also said that, Dani is going to stay there tonight. We need to talk to, Dani...soon." Mom answered.

I was relieved Dani was not in a car accident or anything like that, but she was still hurting and it was still all my fault.

Because of me kissing Callie two months ago on the beach that was when all of this started.

After hearing Dani was at Grandma's for the night I headed for my room.

D.J.'S ROOM...

I flopped down on my bed and rolled over so I was now staring at the ceiling.

'What was I going to do? How could I help my sister, if she refused to talk to me or even be in the same room as me?

Was she going to stop hanging out with Callie and I, just because of everything that was happening?'

I can't stand to think of that happening, because Dani is one of my best friends.

Now though...

It seemed she was pushing me away.

I had to think of a way to talk to Dani and just hope everything would turn out all right in the end.
