Chapter 12: Confrontations
Gabi's POV
I actually made it. Should I go knock at the door or is she going to come outside? Let's hope the latter. I'm driving in their street and I can see the house clearly and her too. It's a good thing she is standing outside, coz I definitely wouldn't have the courage to go knock on the door. I stop next to her and open my Audi S4's door for her. I might say that I love my car. People keep asking me how I can afford it and I have one answer, I'm a daddy's girl. I leave to figure it out.
I looked at her and gave her a small smile.
"Hi" she looks and sounds nerves.
"Hey" I reply casually.
"Um...do you think we can go for a late night snack?"
"Um...sure. Where do you want us to go?" This is getting awkward. I think she feels it too.
"Um can we get...ice cream?" I just can't refuse. If you could see the excitement in her eyes you wouldn't be able to say no.
"Uh...sure?" She smiled at me and I gave her a small smile. The ride to the nearest Milky Lane was and very awkward.
xxxxxxxxxx
When we got to Milky Lane I ordered 'chocolate Milano and rum & raisins' and Andy had a 'chocolate and Oreo spinner'. We sat down on a table next to a window. I stared at her waiting for her to say anything, but she just looked at me. Now I'm confused, because she's suppose to start talking.
"So why exactly didn't call me?"
"I wanted to apologize. As young as I am I realized that I wasn't considering you feelings when I said all those mean things. So I wanted to say sorry for doing what I did I just didn't want to....never mind. I'm just selfish like they said." If this was another person I don't know if I would believe them. Even though I only met her today, I could see how vulnerable and sorry she was, but I still had one thing in my mind. What made her explode like that?
"I would say I understand, but to tell you the truth...I don't. What makes you want to emotionally hurt people the way you do?"
"I guess....I just don't to lose my brother."
"What on earth made you think that you were going to lose you brother?" I am confused as to why you feel this way.
"Ok, um...you know when you and your best friend start high school you never know what to expect and you're always scared that you going to end up separated and not have anyone to understand you." Wow! I never thought of it like that.
"Wow! I guess now I understand were you were coming from, but what made think I wanted to replace you or something? I mean I could never share the same with Troy that you share with him.
And I am also sorry if you felt that I intimidated you."
"No you don't have to sorry. I'm sorry and I hope that you can forgive me for all the harsh things I said to you." I gave her a smile.
"It's ok. We all make mistakes." she gave me a big smile and rushed over to my side and gave me a bear hug which I gladly returned.
"Does this mean you'll take Troy back?"
"Now that maybe a problem," she frowned at me," I mean, it's not that easy but don't worry about it okay." I gave her a reassuring smile. She smiled back, and then looked at me nervously.
"Ok. Uhh....Gabi is it fine if I spend the night at your apartment?"
Now that I wasn't expecting at all! Should I or shouldn't I?
"Uhm....sure. If you wana." She beamed at me, giving me the brightest smile I had ever seen. Hey finished off and went to Gabriella's apartment.
END OF POV

The next morning at the Bolton house
The four Bolton's were having breakfast. They were all wrapped up in their own thoughts, when they heard the door bell. They looked around, as if asking each other if any of them were expecting a visitor. Mrs. Bolton decided to go answer the door.
She walked to the front door and peeped through the peep to see Alice, Andy's bff. Lucille was very confused as to why, Alice was here, and where was Andy?
"Hey Mrs. B!"
"Good morning Alice, what brings you here?"
"I was wondering if Andy was here."
"That's strange I thought she was with you?"
"Why would you think that Mrs. B?"
"Well she left last night and said she was going to your house for the evening." Lucille was furious! Her own daughter lying to her face!
"Well uhm.." Alice was speechless. She didn't know whether to stand up to her best friend's mother or to just keep quiet, she chose the latter, knowing her friend was in enough trouble.
"Well, now I wander were she went? Oh gosh, JACK!" Lucille was panicking, were on this earth was her baby?
"JACK!!!!!!"
"What's wrong?" Jack looked at the visitor and noticed it was Alice. "Morning Alice, what are you doing here? Where is Andy didn't she sleep over your house last night?" Jack was extremely confused.
"Uhm well, she didn't come over my house yesterday, Mr. Bolton." Alice had never been in such an awkward position.
"Jack we don't even know where she is. What if she was raped? Or something bad happened?" by now the whole family was in the door way, concerned.
"Mom? Dad? What's going on?" Alex asked seeing the expressions on their faces. "Oh hey Alice. Isn't Andy supposed to be at your crib?" Alex looked at his parents and then his sister who looked as confused as he did.
"Yeah, I thought she was sleeping over your house too." Claire was getting anxious, why did her mom look like she was going to cry any moment.
"Uhm…Andy didn't come over and I don't know where she is. Now I think I should go home." Before they could say anything she was out of sight.
After they went inside, the first thing they did was call Troy.

Troy's POV
I just came back from my morning run, when I heard the familiar ringtone of my phone.
"You spin my head right round,
Right round,
When you go down,
When you go down,
You spin my head right round,
Right round,
When you go down,
When you go down"
"Speak to me." I answered out of breath.
"Troy, Andy's missing. We don't know where she is. She said she was going to Alice's house but she isn't there. We don't know where she spent the night? Or whether not she is Ok and nothing bad happened. Mom's freaking out and I don't know what to do." I knew that voice was Claire's, but she was speaking so fast I didn't get half of what she was saying.
"Claire, slow down. Now take slow breathes and repeat everything you just said." I tried calming her down. I could hear her breathing and I knew that she was trying her best.
"Okay, Andy's gone missing." Did I hear right or am I hallucinating?
"Did you just say Andy was missing?"
"Yes Troy!"
"Okay, are you sure?" I was getting very scared and nervous. Where on Earth could she go? It's my entire fault why didn't I just talk to her last night. "Did you try calling her cell?"
"Oh, I didn't think of that." Why didn't they call her? It's alright Troy; they haven't called her so she could be okay.
"Okay, I'm going to call her then I'll call you back when I have heard anything." I just hope she answers my phone call.
"Okay Troy, call immediately." We hung up and I dialed her number.

Andy's POV
I was awakened by an annoying ringing next to my ear.
"We're driving slow through the snow
On fifth avenue
And right now radio is
All that we can hear
Man we ain't talked since we left
It's so overdue
It's cold outside
But between us
It's worse in here
The world slows down but my heart beats fast right now
I know this is the part where the end starts
I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't want to try now
All that's left is goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you
I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take your tears
I hate this part right here"
I opened one eye and noticed my phone was ringing on the side table. I looked around and noticed I wasn't in my room at home. That's when everything came back in a flash. Shit! I lied to mom and dad. I need to get home. Oh ya, my phone's ringing.
"Hello"
"Andria Carmen Bolton! Where on earth are you?" Wow Troy's talking to me again. But why's he shouting?
"Good morning to you too big bro." I said sarcastically.
"Don't talk to me like that! DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED EVERYONE IS?!" Oops! They must have found out. I'm dead.
"Uhm…….." I am speechless.
"Of course you don't. I don't have time to argue, so where are you? And you better answer me!" Should I tell him? What if he blames Gabriella? Or maybe this will bring them back together? Yep that will help.
"I am at Gabi's flat-" before I could even finish he was already on my throat.
"What! HOW ON EARTH DID YOU GET THERE?! THERE'S NO TIME FOR QUESTIONS I'M COMING RIGHT NOW AND WHEN I GET THERE MAY GOD HELP YOU!" With that he hung up on me. Wow was I in trouble.

Troy arrived at Gabriella's house 15 minutes later. He walked to the door and knocked. He was nervous to see her again. He turned around when he heard the front door open. He turned around and looked at her.
"Hey," he said nervously, "I just came to get Andy and I promise I'll go."
She looked at him. She saw the dark circles under his eyes telling him he hadn't slept that night. She gave him a small smile and pulled him for a much needed kiss, not only for her, but both of them.
