The end of the Puppeteer

Robbie's P.o.V

I am sitting in Sikowitz's class, watching Cat and André perform a scene, when suddenly my phone goes off. Not two seconds later a ball hit the back of my head knocking me clean off of my chair.

"Turn it off Mr. Shapiro, before I make you do a scene with Jade where she's a torturer and you're her victim," Sikowitz orders, "oh and I'd let Jade be as mean as she wants."

With this a mischievous grin creeps onto Jade's face. I climb back into my chair and quickly turn my phone off, while putting it in my pocket. However, my mind stays on my phone. It didn't recognise the number so it could have been anyone. Ah well, if it's is important then they will call me back. I continue to watch Cat and André.

They are performing a scene in which Cat plays a wife who has just lost her husband in a war and André is the officer who is comforting her after telling her the news. Needless to say that Cat is amazing, bursting into tears the second André tells her of her husband's death. Her tears are so real that I feel like jumping up and giving her a hug, but I hold myself back.

I mean yes I have feelings for Cat but I can't show her. I'm not confident enough to tell her, plus she'll probably just laugh in my face. I guess I'll just have to settle for appreciating her beauty from here; looking at her bright red hair that has never failed to cheer me up, and listening to her angelic laugh.

*Bring bring*

The bell for lunch goes and Cat hops up quickly from her teary eyed performance and bounds out of the classroom. I slowly strut out of the classroom picking up Rex as I leave. As I step outside I turn my phone on for it to immediately beep telling me that I have 7 missed calls all from the number that called me before.

I decide to call the number back after I have had my lunch, because as much as having 7 missed calls annoys me I am so hungry I can't really focus on it. I make my way over to the Grub truck and grab myself a taco. I then look around to see Cat and the rest of the gang already sitting down so head over to join them.

Cat's P.o.V

Yay! Robbie's here. No wait I'm mad at him, he nearly made me break character during lesson. Then Sikowitz would have thrown the ball at me and that hurts trust me. Oh, wait Robbie was hit by the ball. Hope it didn't hurt him too much. Ok I can stop being mad now. Beside I can't stay mad at Robbie all he has to do is smile and I can't help but melt inside.

"So Robbo, who decided to interrupt our scene earlier?" André asks, as he gives me a one armed hug.

"Not sure," Robbie replies, "but they've tried to call me since." Robbie pulls out his Pearphone to check it quickly and then puts it on the table.

A thought pops into my head at that moment. "Why do they call a pear a pear?" I ask, "It's not like they come in twos."

Everyone is now staring at me with weird looks on their face. I don't like it when they do that it makes me feel like I have done something wrong. The only person that I don't mind looking at me when the gang does this is Robbie and that's because there is a different look o his face. A look that says I wish I thought like that. However looking at Robbie also makes me blush so I just stare at my shoes until they stop looking.

Luckily for me Robbie's phone goes off at that moment causing everyone to avert their eyes. Yay, Robbie is my hero even if he doesn't know it. I go back to eating my salad not wishing for anyone to look at me like they just did for a while. I'm only half paying attention when Tori says "Robbie..." but even I can sense the concern in her voice.

By the time that I look up, Robbie has gone. I look at the others all of them with confused looks on their faces and for once I am not the cause of them. I look back down to see that Robbie has left Rex behind. He looks so sad just laying there. I quickly grab him up and place him in my bag.

"Hey, guys where did Robbie go?" I ask, wondering if I missed something whilst picking at my salad.

"Well I'm guessing it had something to do with the phone call" replies Beck "but he didn't say where he went."

"I'm kind of worried" Tori explains "that look on his face wasn't good."

Oh no. What happened to Robbie? I hope he's ok. I know I'll give him a call after school and offer him a Cat hug that should make everything better. Besides he'll need Rex back.

After school

I pull out my phone, looking at a picture of me, Mr. Longneck and Robbie. I select Robbie in my contacts and hit the call button. The phone rings and rings. This is unlike Robbie he always picks up in the first few rings.

Hello sorry that I missed you leave a message and I'll give you a ringy ding ding back.

His voicemail, this never happens something must be wrong. I leave a message asking him to call me back.

I pull out Rex from my bag a give him the tightest hug. I just want to know Robbie is safe, if this is the closest I can get to him for now then I won't let it go.
