Are You New?................

It's late Tuesday night and am up doing a project for my teacher at the moment. If I was you and I was a sleep I wouldn't want to be you just a few weeks a my best friend was kidnapped and killed they found her by the river. I don't think it was true because I remember that day so well we were all at lunch and laughter filled our lungs. We were sitting with our boyfriends and other friends as well.

Then the Bell rings and we all scatter to are next class but not me I sign out of school and go to the mall of course. I get a new outfit that was needed at the time. Then I see her boyfriend there he has no clue am watching he was talking to no one I knew or have ever seen before. I over hear just a little bit of what they are saying but I can't be sure if it was true. I quikely go to the bathroom and change in to my new dress and the wig I always Carrie around and walk up to them and as the one I never saw his name. I knew he wasn't sure what to do then and he wasn't anyone's family in this town either. Then I ask him if he's new in town he says no I just walk away from them.

I decided to go to the food court and then head back to school for the last block of the day. They let me go me go they never ask questions to me about why i left I am there number one student in my grade level. I raise my hand to the techer and ask if I could go to the band room or gym of course. I also hand in the extra credit assignment that she gave me and she says thank you and lets me go every one grones because I get to go out of class and they all want to be me of course.

But back to the project I am working on its due in two weeks of corse. But with everything else that's happened in the past month and so on they should give us more time but of course they don't. But I am not going anywhere without this project and big problem that has came up. After my best friend Sally died and was kidnapped everyone else is on edge and scared that something else will have. It's like the whole town is on lock down. I tell my parents that am going out at 10:30 tonight they look at me and say ok. I am at the mall again to night I see that same guy who was talking to my best friends boyfriend the same day she was kidnapped and killed.

I go up toh him and say hey don't I know you from some were or have we meet before. He looks at me and ask me if I want to sit with him and I say sure. I sit next to him on the beach and he goes like my name is James. I go what are you doing in this town no one ever comes heat to visit our town. So please tell me why my agent saw you talking with the girl that got killed boyfriend a month ago. He looks at me with eyes as black as my hair and says you look young to have a job like that. I just say yea I know that's what everyone always says. I am the only one working on the case and I need to know what you were talking about please. He looks at me with his Raven black eyes and I melt into them. He's drawing me close to him by the second. Know I remember who he is he was my very first crush back in elementary school. I wanted to be his since then.

I kept dreaming about this day, and I knew it was eventually going to come. Once I said goodbye to James last night, I knew my whole world was about to change. Once I got home, my boyfriend, Raymond, called, and we had a horrible conversation. This is how it went...:

"Willow, what the hell are you doing out of your house like that? You shouldn't be doing that, even with what happened to your best friend and my f****** lover!" ("His lover...") He didn't notice his slip up at all, and he didn't hear how my voice cracked when I said this...: "Raymond, if you can't talk to me right, then I guess we should be done, but if you want to be half the man you are right now, then we can work through this, okay? I love you and you know I have a job that takes place at night, so don't tell me what I can and cannot do, okay?" I said very calmly. "Willow, you know I care for you but not as much as I used to," he exclaimed, (that stung me a lot), "You used to be someone I would hang out with just to get to her so I can cheat on you." I could tell he's been drinking some, but I knew there was truth to that. "Raymond, I am hanging up now. So good night." I didn't wait for him to answer me.

I hung up the phone and called my best friend, James because I knew he would talk me through things like this. I knew I couldn't hide my feelings from him anymore. After the conversation was done, James was outside, at my bedroom window, and climbed in. James knew what to do to cheer me up right away. He went and pulled out my Bible and read me my favorite Psalm, and then he told me John 3:1. That brought a smile to my face and joy into my heart.
