(sorry if the last chapter confused you guys! hopefully this one
clears it up!)
part
one
I
woke with a start.
My forehead was prickled
with sweat.
And my throat was dry.
Oh. My. God.
Was I starting to
remember?
I stood up and began pacing
around the room so I could think.
Maybe, but…if that really
happened then, what went on between then, and me ‘waking
up’ in that warehouse with Carter.
Carter!
Oh my God!
Carter was the boy on the
bus.
Unless it was just a
dream.
But no…
It couldn’t be.
He came on the bus as if he were
looking for me…
It didn’t make
sense.
Why was he there at that
time…
Maybe…maybe Carter was the
reason the bus lost control.
“No, no, no.” I said
to out loud, forcing the thought out of my mind.
It couldn’t be
real.
I don’t even know if
it’s a memory or a dream for crying out loud!
Besides, Carter wouldn’t do
that.
He couldn’t, he’s
been nothing but nice to me and-
I heard a rustling from the floor
behind me.
It made me jump.
“Did you say
something?” Carter asked sleepily.
“Oh…uhm, no.
Sorry.”
Oops…I forgot he was in
here.
I looked around the room
again.
When we had arrived last night I
hadn’t been able to see that well.
But now the sun was rising, and
it was shining through the cracks in the three boarded up
windows.
There was a small closet in one
corner, I’m guessing that’s where Carter pulled our
sleeping bags out of last night.
There was a light grey folding
table pushed against one of the walls, right under one of the
windows.
There were also four matching
chairs around it.
There was an old, bulky
refrigerator on the other side of the room, directly across from
the table.
It was making a slight humming
sound that filled the room.
Our two sleeping bags were in the
center of the room.
Carter was in a dark green one he
was snoring a little bit.
I realized that, aside from my
‘dream,’ this was really the first time that I
actually looked at him.
His hair was the perfect length-
not too long and not too short.
It was brown and shaggy, and I
liked it.
His skin was sun
kissed.
There was a dash of freckles
sprinkled on and around his nose.
He had muscles, a lot of
them.
Carter.
Wow. He was hot.
Just then, he shifted a little
and rolled over.
This brought me back to
reality.
Oh my God, I was being such a
creep.
I laughed at myself and how
stupid I was.
Then, my stomach
growled.
Carter looked so peaceful sleeping,
and I didn't want to wake him up so I decided to check in the
fridge for something to eat.
I turned on my heel and took one
step.
And then there was a knock on the
door.
