The only sound in the room was of Kristen dropping the Teen Vogue. Dylan emerald eyes widened impossibly large. Claire's hands were shaking and her perfectly plucked brows were furrowed. Massie simply picked up her iPhone, pressed six on speed dial, and waited for her boyfriend to pick up.

"What a wonderful boyfriend!" Massie whispered to herself as the she heard ringing.

"Hel-"

"Derrick," Massie cut him off, "is Josh at your house?"

"No! Alicia hasn't found him yet? Oh god, I hope he's alright." Derrick sounded slightly panicked.

"Oh great," Alicia said, collapsing onto a beanbag. All she could hear was anxious buzzing from Massie's phone. "Mass, W-what are we going to do?

"Shh. I'm on the phone," Massie said, covering the receiver of her phone with her hand. "Call Josh's parents. He probably got to Slice of Heaven, couldn't find you, and then went home."

Alicia bit her pillowy lip and swiftly dialed Josh's home number.

"Yes?" A female voice came on the line.

"Hi Mrs. Hotz. This is Alicia. I was supposed to meet Josh at Slice of Heaven, but he never showed. Is there any chance he got there after I left and is at home now?" Alicia's eyes were squinted shut in desperation.

"You still don't know where he is? Oh god. If he isn't back in three hours, I'm calling the police." Josh's mother sighed loudly into the phone.

"Uh, okay. I'll keep calling around."

Alicia's face was contorted in the most pained, desperate, scared look Massie had ever seen anyone pull off. A lone tear ran it's way down Alicia's blotchy cheek, ruining her perfect makeup.

"Alicia, this is ridiculous. He's been missing for like, and hour. Is there something we don't know?" Massie's looked like a caring and sweet friend, for once.

Boy, she catches on quickly.

Alicia lifted her red-rimmed large caramel colored eyes, deciding it would be best to tell them.

MWAHAHAH! A cliff-hanger indeed.
