• The only thing stopping me were those stupid video cameras. I muttered coldly as I stared at them standing along the road in front of the William’s house. I went around back and parked then ran quickly up the back steps and knocked on the door. There was loud noises and kids screaming then Rainbow answered the door. She grinned up at me.

    “Trinity! I just got my Barbie’s out!”

    I smiled. “I can’t today but is Ryder home?” she shook her head.

    “He went somewhere,” she muttered.

    “Trinity!” Mrs. Williams, Carrie, came to the door and smiled. “Ryder isn’t here I think he went out with Cookie and Is to the coffee shop or something. Did you want to wait for him?” she asked kindly. I shook my head.

    “No thanks, I’m have to go find him.” She nodded. I took off back out and got into my car then headed toward the coffee shop.

    I walked quickly now the walk but was stopped by a brown hair business suit woman.

    “Hi! We met before at the hospital. Suzan Smith,” she extended a hand and I didn’t take it.

    “What do you want?” I asked not caring to talk to anyone but Ryder at this moment.

    “I want to be your agent. I can set you up for interviews, talk shows, movie deals, tv shows! The works! Are you up for it? You and your boyfriend, Ryder will be movie stars!” She said excitedly. Not like I couldn’t see the money sign in her eyes instead of us.

    “Sorry, no,” I said stepping around her. She stopped me with a hand.

    “It’s a big move but you won’t regret it. You’ll love behind famous and rich! You won’t even have to live around this dump,” she said glancing around. I grounded my teeth together.

    “FYI: I don’t want to be rich and don’t you ever talk about this place being a dump. It’s my home. And I think you should go back to yours!” I yelled. She glared.

    “Fine, b*tch,” she said and stalked away.

    I rolled my eyes and went into the busy coffee shop. I spotted Is and Cookie but was surprised to see they weren’t talking, but kissing. I slowly went over and cleared my throat. They broke away and Cookie’s cheeks flamed. Is just grinned. “Where’s Ryder?”

    Is sighed and rubbed his forehead. “I’m not sure. He left not to long ago but didn’t tell us where he was going. I think he’s going to be an idiot.” My hearted thudded. Panic coursing through me.

    “Do you have any idea where he could be?” I asked. Is shook his head.

    “I’m not sure.”

    I nodded. “Thanks,” I mumbled and walked out. What if he left? For good? Ran away? I would never see him again! I hope he didn’t. I went to my car and slammed my head onto my steering wheel.

    “Think Trinity, think! Where would he go?” then I pulled my head back and it hit me. “The old theater!”

    I was in the building before I knew it and dust filled my nose. I sneezed and sniffled.

    “Who’s there?” Demanded a voice I knew all to much. I went into the big theater and saw Ryder standing on the stage, eyes wide. I forgot how handsome he was. He was wearing dark jeans with a gray t shirt on. It brought out the gray flecks in his eyes. I wanted to melt and I was afraid I had because I was rooted to the floor with my mouth locked tightly shut. There was so much to say.
