Read And Review!

:)

I was gazing out the window, pointlessly when the bell rang and I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see Samantha, standing there, her books already in her bag.

"It's time to go" She said, quietly, watching me. I nodded and she gave me a small sad smile. We both headed towards our lockers, that were just a few feet away from each other. I entered my combination and grabbed all my books, my jacket and my car/ house keys, then shut the locker. I shut my locker and walked over to Samantha's locker.

Landon was standing there. Talking to her. Samantha had a faint blush creeping to her cheeks. I narrowed my eyes, suspiciously. As I edged closer, I heard bits of their conversation.

"-love to" Samantha said, her eyes on the ground. She always did that when she was nervous. I finally reached her and stood behind her. Waiting.

"I'll pick you up at 8?" Landon asked, his eyes were now on me.I returned his gaze... Well, i was kind of glaring more than staring.

"Sure" Samantha replied, gazing dreamily at him. He winked at her and glanced at one last time. Then left. Then she turned to me. oh, noo-

"Ohmygod! He asked me out! ME not that slut! ME! We're gonna go have dinner! Did you see? He winked, right at me! I just want to kiss his-" I put a hand over her mouth. She was definitely attracting too much attention. People had stopped to stare at her in the hallways.

"I saw and heard... But aren't we supposed to go watch a movie today?" I asked , smugly. A guilty expression took over her face and she stared at me. Looking so depressed, I almost felt bad for bringing it up.

"I'm joking! Go have some fun, but you better tell me all the details! Promise?" I said, beaming at her. Her eyes literally lit up, as if she just won the jackpot. Then she bobbed her head, excitedly. But before neither of us could say anything else. All our other friends popped out of nowhere and jumped on us. I laughed and returned their hugs and high fives.

"Guys, I have to go" I announced. They all nodded at waved me, goodbye. I headed towards the door, but before leaving I turned around.

"Sam" I called. She turned around, smiling at my childhood nickname for her. "Be careful" She nodded. I turned around and drove home.

When i got home I quickly changed into a grey, tight sweater and purple skinny jeans. Then slipped on a pair of grey flats and adding a pair of fake purple pearls to my ears, combed my hair, neatly so it fell over my shoulders. Then quickly made a mayo sandwich and grabbed a glass of coke. Both which I finished in five minutes.

Since I had a lot of free time. I would usually go over to the Old Age Home. To spend some time, volunteering. I grabbed my leather jacket, and bag which I had my cell, wallet, etc... Then got in my car and within minutes I was on the road. Taking my tie driving there, it was 30 minutes away from my house by car but it was like an hour away by foot.

Awhile later, I parked my car outside the building and got out, taking in my surroundings. There was only a basketball court, where some cheerleaders were practicing and a bunch of guys were playing ball, and a building in this area, the rest was all trees. Weird, right?

I turned around and started to walk up the stairs when I heard my name being called. I turned around and saw some guys running up to catch up with me. All sweaty and shirtless. The boy in the front, Aaron spoke up first.

"Hey, what are doing here?" He asked, grinning at me, his dimples showing. They called him the

"Lady Charmer" at school. Which I would always roll my eyes at.

"Volunteering" I replied, shifting my weight from one foot to the other. He looked at me, surprised but an admirable look on his face.

"Why?" He asked, the guys behind him were play fighting. Rolling on the concrete like idiots.

"Takes my mind off... stuff" I said, shrugging. He nodded, understandingly.

"So, I was wondering if you, you know want to, um come to my house?" My eyes widened. His did too after he realized how wrong his request sounded.

"I-I mean, I'm having a party" He stuttered and was blushing like a tomato. I sighed with relief and looked at him more closely. Light brown messy hair, with light brown eyes. and dimples appeared on his cheeks whenever he smiled.

"When is it?" I asked. Hope lit up in his eyes.

"Tomorrow" He replied.

"I'll be there" I said after a moment, and smiled at him. He grinned, happily and slowly backed away.

"Bye" He said, gazing at me in a way that made me kind of uncomfortable. I looked at him and noticed that he was still walking backwards on a road. I laughed and called out

"Be careful, Aaron!" I called out. He ran a hand through his ruffled hair. Blushing, and gave me one last glance before turning around and running back to the basketball court.

I turned around and headed up the stairs to the Old Age Home. I was greeted by the secretary and I walked towards the living room where all the other members sat, doing their own stuff, like playing chess or knitting. I opened the door and a grin automatically made its way to my face.

"It's been years, my friends!" I said in a sing- song voice, dramatically. Everyone turned around and beamed happily at me. A few of the members even got up to greet me, but I ordered them to sit down, as I placed a kiss on everyone's cheeks.

Time flew by so fast, that when my eyes fell on the clock it was 9:30 p.m. I gasped. Chess really did fog up your mind. I quickly shuffled around the room, calling out apologies to Rosmerta. A 52 year- old woman. I got along with her the best.

I frantically searched for my bag. Which I found a while after under an old couch. Where an old man named Albert was snoring, pretty loudly. I might add. He had a photograph of his 2 year- old niece, clutched in his hands tightly. They were supposed to visit him today. But they hadn't. I smiled sadly and took out a blanket, from the cupboard across the room and gently draped it over him. I quickly walked over to Rosmerta, who was taking her medicine.

"It's late, I gotta go" I said, taking the glass from her hands and placing it on the smiled. Making the corners of her eyes, pull up.

"I know, but be careful, and visit soon. I get worried about you." She said, placing a kiss on my forehead. I closed my eyes. Those 5 words. I've yearned to hear them everyday. She pulled back and looked at me, smiling. I got up and waved her, goodbye. Then walked towards the front, where the secretary sat. Yawning and and shuffling some papers around. She looked up, surprised to see me still here.

"Visiting and volunteering hours are way past closed, Sofia." She said, half- joking, half- serious. I grinned, sheepishly at her.

"Time flew by so fast. I didn't notice. Though I have a favour to ask" I said, looking at her through hopeful eyes. She looked at me, curious. I opened my purse and took out my wallet.

"I need you to plan something tomorrow. For everyone. Like an outing to a museum, I don't know a carnival? I'll that to you, every thing's on me, okay?" I said, handing the bundle of bills to her. She looked at me, with the same admirable look. That Aaron previously had on his face. But took the money, anyways.

"You're one of your kind, Sofia" She murmured. I smiled and thanked her then went outside towards the car. Which was easy to find since it was the only one in the lot. I got in my car and put the key in the ignition.

Drrr, stop. I groaned it had to be now? I tried again.

Drrr, stop.I cried out in frustration. I looked at the clock. 9:45 p.m. I took out my cell and speed dialed Samantha. When my cell suddenly shut down. I looked at it in disbelief. Battery dead. I looked at the building. All the lights were closed. Even the front desk one. I sighed, angrily and got out the car, slamming the door behind me. I opened the roof of the car and touched a few things here and there near the engine. Then tried restarting the car. Nothing. I got out and slammed the car door, again but a bit harder this time. I leaned against the car. Inhaling and exhaling, trying really hard not to panic.

Suddenly a red or some other colored car, I couldn't exactly see in the dark, screeched to a stop in front of me.

I gulped. The door opened and stepped out...
