10. I Can't Forget About You... But I Just Did (Special Chapter)

Rule #10 Do not eavesdrop, you might not like what they're talking about...or doing.

Riley! She hasn't talked to me in a long time, it's been three years now. We had done everything together, I didn't remember why she left.

"Yeah.. it's me Zoë," I said taking a seat on my tardis themed bed.

"I missed you, when can I see you agian?" Riley asked, I let out a sigh.

"How about we meet tonight? Where do you live?" I asked, I lived in San Francisco. I wasn't far from her, she lived in L.A... I thought, I don't remember how she even looked.

I just wanted to see her again, what if she knows what happened to me? Finally someone that could tell me the truth! I could count on her, or could I?

We hanged up , and packed a bag with clothes.

A ride! Where would I get a ride?

Stiles.

This wasn't exactly a good time for him to give me a ride

I ran over to Stiles's bedroom window, and knocked four times. Knocking four times rhythmically was something I do all time since I started watching Doctor Who. Stiles opened the window and gave me a strange look, "Yeah?"

I bit my lower lip and looked sheepishly at him, "Can I borrow your car?"

"Why?"He asked.

"I need to see someone."

"Who?"

"Now you just sound like my over-protective father, Stiles."

"Zoë, tell me. Who?"

"Stiles, just trust me on this!"

He pressed his lips together, as he thought about it.

"Where to?"

I sighed exasperatedly, "San Francisco."

His eyes widened, "That far? On your own?"

"Yes, father."

He shook his head, "I'm driving."

"Fine."I muttered. I watched him, as he quickly jammed some clothes into his backpack and climbed out the window, almost giving me a heart attack in the process. The window was only one feet high.

We hurried to his car and swiftly got in. And we wasted no breath, soon enough we were in the route to San Francisco.

I lowered the window, smelling the fresh San Francisco Bay air. I remembered coming one time with my Dad. I turned and smiled at Stiles, he didn't smile back, instead he kept looking at the road.

"Come on, Stiles, smile for once." I say smiling again, I don't know why I kept smiling. Maybe I am happy..

"Please, just be quiet until we get there. Please?" He begged. I sat quietly. He's in a bad mood.

"Listen to me, were going to get you help!"

I heard yelling in my head. I put my hands on my head.

"Zoë, Zoë? Please don't......."

The voices faded.

"It came back to me," I muttered. I think he heard.

Was he going to murder me? Because it sure looked like it.

"What came back to you?" Stiles asked curiously.

"Nevermind, it was nothing." I said hastily.

"Zoë!" I looked at Riley, she came out and hugged me.
