I frowned at the ground then looked up at Jake. He seemed to be smiling. I sauntered out of her house and walked around town. I can't believe Adeline. Since five, we have been friends.

I heard a gunshot from somewhere on the alley I was near. I ran in the alley and saw Jake's friends leaning over a wounded guy.

"What the hell are you guys doing?" I asked. Their heads snapped towards me and they grinned.

"Killing a guy sweetie. But now we have to kill you," Justin said.

"Justin, please don't." He aimed his gun towards me but then pulled it down.

"How do you know my name?"

"I'm Priscilla, Adeline's ex-bestfriend. You are Jakes best friend."

He looked over at the other guy who had his back towards us. "Oh, then I guess you can go. Bye."

I sprinted home but ran into someone who gripped my shoulders so I didn't fall. I looked up and saw Jake.

"Sorry," I said.

"Its OK," he said then left.

I walked the rest of the way home. As I entered I saw mom cutting carrots vilontly.

"Mom, what's wrong?" I asked stopping her

"He cheated Priscilla. He cheated."
