Across the River

Only one

"Save me Chris..." what was that? "Wake up, you're the only one who will understand, just wake up..." am I asleep? I don't remember going to sleep... "Lock..." before the voice finished I heard the bell go off as my eyes were forced open by the voices of my friends Alex, and Hannah.
"Chris... you okay, this isn't like you" Alex said first,
"It's not like you to doze off during class, especially this one" Hannah said as a continuation to Alex. "Seeing how your trying to impress someone" she teased, I'm began blushing,
"But Xika was absent today so it makes since, he's probably thinking of him." Alex joined the teasing,
"That doesn't...." before I could finish someone ran into the doorway,
"Guys come out here, there's a fight" we all looked at each other and ran to the scene. As we pushed threw the crowd we began to hear the fighters,
"ITS YOUR FAULT HES MISSING" we heard someone yell,
"YOU WERE THE ONE USING HIM FOR HIS MONEY" someone else yelled. We got to the front and saw two of Xika's friends fighting, MariBeth and Drew, Drew went in for a punch but MariBeth ducked out of the way and got a hit in on his crotch causing him to collapse. MariBeth went to kick Drew as my body jumped into action and pulled them apart,
"What the hell is going on with you two!" I yelled,
"He's gone!!! It's HIS fault he's missing" MariBeth replied, i rolled my eyes,
"Enough of the pronoun games, who's missing"
"Xika, he's gone" as they said Xika's name everyone started up,
"Wait Xika?"
"He can't be gone"
"He wasn't even that cool" my eyes widened as I heard everyone, my body took action again as I ran out of the crowd towards my locker. I heard Hannah and Alex calling out for me but I wasn't gonna stop.
I reached my locker and began opening it as my eyes started to water, "he's not gone... he's not gone... he's just sick... he'll be back tomorrow" I tried to tell myself as I tried to get my stuff from my locker, "I'll go to bed and tomorrow I'll see him" as I unlocked my locker Alex and Hannah caught up,
"Chris... I'm sor..." Hannah tried to say, I stopped her
"Don't say it... missing doesn't mean gone forever" as I opened my locker a leather bound book with stickers and a note on the front fell out, They began talking again but I blocked them out, focusing on the book, I picked it up and began reading the note,
"Chris... if you're reading this... I'm sorry," sorry, who wrote this, "I don't know if you care that I'm gone or not, but you're the only one who can help..." the only one? What does that mean? "I need you to find me -Xika" Xika... this was... is Xika's?
