Brrring! Brrring!
The schools bell rang. I gathered my items and scurried over to my smooth locker. My calender read Wednesday, Decemeber 27. Groaning, I sprinted to the front door where I ran into my friend Lucy.
“You gonna stay after school today?” I asked admiring the 2 inches of white snow.
“Nah, I’m riding my bike home,” Lucy replied.
“In this weather?” I asked leaning against the steel pole.
“Uh huh.”
“I guess I’ll walk with you then! I’m gonna be bored in the library by myself.”
“Then you better walk fast cuz I’m not going to slow down too much.”
I nodded. We didn’t even get out of school property when my friend Collin ran up to me. Collin was staying after school and was wondering where we were. He had this thing for Lucy so didn’t like staying there without her. Or atleast me! Although I knew, the news hadn’t been shrunk to her yet. Clueless she was.
“Where are you two going?” Collin asked me as Lucy sped up infront of us.
“Well, Lucy is riding her bike home and I’m walking with her.”
“Then what am I supposed to do?”
“I don’t know! Walk home with us,” I suggested.
“Sure,” Collin grinned.
“Uhhh, okay,” I said not actually thinking he was gonna walk home with us.
There we were, the three Musketeers. One of us on wheels, and two on foot, trudging through mountains of snow. Lucy’s house was a mile away. Which is the reason we usually camp out in the library waiting for someone to get us.
“Finally home!” I yelled jogging towards the wooden door. I stood wearily by the warm door. Lucy came in behind me to unlock the gateway.
“HEAT!” I yelled smelling the burning scent of the heater.
“Where did Collin go?”
“He’s right there,” I said smiling in circles.
“Uhhhh, no he isn’t.”
I stopped in mid-circle. Sure enough, there was only an old green sofa in its place. Collin was no where to be seen.
“Where’d he go?” I panicked.
