Chapter 15

Johnny's pov

I didn't give up yesterday and tried to contact him. Ace and the others also helped me finding him but nothing. I was getting anxious and a lot of what ifs were going in my mind. In the end, we all had to go home without even finding him. I called his stepmom once again and she said that Steve told her that he'll be sleeping over with a friend. I know Steve has a lot of friends outside school but I only knew a few of them. Plus, I don't even have their contact number.

"So there's really nothing I can do but wait, huh?" I sighed as I continued walking down the hall with my backpack, hoping Steve will come to class today. Entering the classroom, his empty seat just made all my hope go down. As I sat down to my seat which next to a window, everyone seemed to be busy. I took out my book and try to calm myself down.
