I woke up and Zeke wasn't next to me...I guess he's used to waking up early since he has siblings. "Morning sleepy head, we have to get ready in thirty minutes for school," Said Ashley. "Okay, but Ash I didn't tell my dad I was coming over...I'm in trouble" I feared. "You don't have to worry when you have us." Zeke reassured me. "anyways I'm heading to school I'll meet you guys there" I grabbed my backpack and put on a beanie. "Wait for me! I'm not going with them, Ash is bad at directions" Said Zeke and I laughed, "You know it" I Said and we walked to school. Phoenix and Ashley were right behind us.
"What do you think is happening today?" Zeke Questioned. "School" I laughed and he looked at me with the stare of death. "You don't even look scary, you just look like a kid who's grumpy for not getting a lollipop." The stare of death continues as we got to the school. "I want to give up" Zeke plainly stated. "Why? because your too cute to scare anyone"I teased him. "I hate you." The comment made me laugh as I opened my locker. "I hate you too." I messed up his hair as he opened his locker. He looked disturbed, but something tells me it's not by me. "Remember when I dated that girl for a month? Yeah, she's right behind you" I turned around and jumped, "holy shit! How did you even get there!" I asked. "I came to see Zeke." Gosh...I forgot how annoying she was. "Zeke come on, you know a guy like him isn't worth it," she said and I gave her the look of hell. "He's too precious for you, he's mine and forever mine. Now go away" I hugged Zeke and she walked away rolling her eyes. "What would I ever do without you?" Questioned Zeke. "You wouldn't of looked as threatening as you did" I teased him. "Yeah...HEY! WAIT!" He got mad and I laughed running away from him, trying to get to first period English.
-Lunch-
I sat by Ashley and Phoenix during lunch, but where was Zeke? "Zeke coming?" Questioned Ashley. "That's what I was thinking. He's never missed lunch with us" I commented. "I could go find him. I'm good at finding things, I did find all those treasures last week in the game" Phoenix said. "He's probably late. Sometimes teachers keep students after classes if they're having trouble on there work." I pointed out. "Well I'm going to find him and you can't stop me." Phoenix got up out of her seat and exited the lunchroom making me sigh. "She'll figure it out and come back here, then you can tell her I told you so," said Ashley. "Yeah, I guess your right," I answered as I took a bite of my sandwich.
-Phoenix-
I exited the lunchroom and looked around the school for Zeke. I walked to the computer lab noticing the room was empty except for this nerdy looking kid at a computer eating lunch. "You need anything?" He questioned with his mouth full. He sounds like that person that turns gaming to science. "No, No. Just looking for a friend." I answered then exited the classroom.
For all of us being computer geeks, at least one of us would go hide there. I kept walking around until I searching everywhere he would probably go except the boy's bathroom. I sighed. Why me? I walked into the boys' bathroom and I didn't hear anything..until I heard crying. Why was he crying?
I walked to the bathroom stall and knocked on it. "Zeke. It's me, Phoenix. You can talk to me" I said and I heard him crying. I was so confused. Did something happen? "Zeke...please open the door" the door opened to a crying Zeke curled up on the floor. "Zeke? What's wrong?" He didn't speak...not a word nor sentence. "I may not be Jayden or Ashley, but I'm here for you. Trust me I've been through a lot myself" I Said. "I-I..I'm going home" Zeke got up and exited the bathroom stall pushing me out of the way. I sighed and walked back to lunch knowing he wants to be left alone.
