A://N If you haven't go check out the trailer I made its on the chapter 'CAST/TRAILER'.
Chapter 2- "You know Leonardo DiCaprio is not the real Jack"?
Crap! I'm late!
I ran into my bathroom and ran a brush threw my hair and brushed my teeth.
I walked into my closet and grabbed a gray/black hoodie and a pair of skinny jeans with wholes at the knees.
I tied my low top black Vans. I like Converses better but Gwen took my black ones today!
I threw on a black snapback; backwards and grabbed my keys and ran down the steps.
OW!
I tripped on the last step of the staircase and face planted into the hardwood floor.
Freaking Gravity!
I stood up and ran out.
Crap!
My trucks in the shop.
Think Tatum, think!
AHA!
I grabbed my skateboard and skated out and up and down streets.
Its Saturday but I have to go to meet my family at a restaurant, because of my mom.
*********************
I skated into the restaurant, getting yelled at by a few people for skating inside. I saw my mom and siblings with a few other people. I skated up and got off my skateboard and kicked the end of my board making it fly up to my hand.
"Tatum, dear" A familiar voice said. I looked up from the ground and saw a women with blue eyes and blond hair. Mrs. Lockwood. My eyes widened and she hugged me "Wow, you've grown".
I smiled and nodded.
Mrs. Lockwood was basically a mom to me when my life was dramatic.
I'm extremely close to her.
She pulled away and scanned over me, then smiling again.
"Tatum, why are you late" my mom asked?
"Someone didn't wake me up" I said as I shot Mark a accusing look.
He put his hands in surrender.
I rolled my eyes.
I took a seat at the end of a table.
"Where are the kids"? I asked Mrs. Lockwood.
"On there way" she said "I heard you ran into them at the grocery store".
I nodded.
-Its been about 20 minutes. I saw Zoe, Holly, James, Taylor, and River walk in.
Zoe's eyes lit up when she saw me and she ran up and hugged me.
"You're here"! She cheered.
"What about me"? Lex asked.
Zoe giggled and hugged Lex.
Everyone else took their seats.
River and I didn't make eye contact.
My mom asked "So what is everyone ordering"?
We all scanned over the menu.
A waitress about my age with blond hair and hazel eyes came up.
"Hi my name is Ana, I will be a waitress. Can I get you something to drink"? She asked.
She smiled sweetly at River and batted her eyelash, and twirled a piece of hair.
I rolled my eyes and we all all ordered our drinks and she walked away. I tapped my fingers on the table.
"So, Tatum. Do you know where you are going to college"? Mrs. Lockwood asked.
I sat up straight and my mom narrowed her eyes to me.
I shook my head "No".
"I told, you Tatum. You need to start looking" My mom said in a I'm-right-because-I'm-your-mother-and-mom's-are-always-right tone.
"It's September" I pointed out.
She sighed then turning to Mrs. Lockwood and them engrossing into a conversation.
<^> River Lockwood POV <^>
I scrolled threw my phone as everyone talked. I leaned back in my chair and my phone buzzed.
Lucas: Dude! Where the hell are you?!?!
Me: Sh*t! I forgot about the meeting! I am at a restaurant, my mom won't let me out of it....
Lucas: Well you are going to have to pay your debt. Don't forget you're racing tonight.
Me: Ya, ya, I know
Lucas: I'm serious River, you need to step up a game.
Me: I'm River Lockwood, I am already the best
Lucas: Whatever........Isn't Tatum there?
Me: Sadly yes
Lucas: She's not that bad
Me: You try being best friends with her for 16 years, then come and talk to me.
Lucas: Fine see you when I'm 32 :)
Me: Whatever, see you later
I put my phone away and looked up. Zoe asked "River can we go to the game room"?
I saw she was next to Tatum.
Tatum was shaking and her face was pale and she looked like she was having a small anxiety attack.
I raised an eyebrow "Are you okay"?
"Uh-Uh...Y-ya I-I'm F-f-fine" she stuttered "I just need some a-air" then got up and walked out.
<3 Tatum Crawford <3
"Beth"! I cried into the phone.
I slid down my bedroom wall and brought my knees up to my chest.
"Hey, what's wrong"? She asked concerned.
"There coming back" I cried into the phone.
"The Anxiety Attacks"? She questioned.
"Yes" I whimpered.
"I'll be right over"! She said and hung up.
I always had anxiety attacks from the 7th grade-junior year. I finally got over them, but there coming back and I don't know why.
Bethany ran in and hugged me.
"Did you tell your mom"?
"No, just you" I said.
She hugged me again. "Do you think it's because River keeps popping up"?
"No, why would I care"?! I denied.
"He was your best friend, you loved him like a brother,Tatum" She said.
"Not anymore" I mumbled.
"I think that's what it is" She said.
"Whatever. Can we watch Netflix or something"?
"I'll get the ice-cream" she said.
"No! No! No! No! Why?! Why did Jack have to die!? He just to HOT to die!" Beth actually cried over the titanic and was shouting at my TV.
I narrowed my eyes at her and took a spoonful of ice-cream of the carton. We are on our 2nd carton of ice cream, and are 2 hours into the movie.
"Jeez, Beth. You know Leonardo DiCaprio is not actually the real Jack"?
"O shut up! I'm a hormonal teenager, what do you expect"!? She defended and I chuckled.
My door then opened.
"Why is Bethany crying"? Max asked confused.
"We're watching the Titanic".
"Aha" he said then walking out.

A://N Ok so Chapter 2 is complete!
I hoped you liked it!
I only had Religion homework today (I go to Catholic School) so that was a surprise!
I usually get 5 pages of Math, 6 things of Socail Studies (Including essays, outlines, etc.) Science Packet, Reading Vocab, Religion pages, and A LOT of studying.
stuDYING
Yeah, so that's it...I think?
Oh! Wait!
Why would Tatum have anxiety attacks?!
You'll find out eventually..........
*Laughs Evilly*
Dedication to Keke980, because she's one of my best friends since the 2nd grade, and she listened to me rant today about how my Algebra class got lunch detention because of the idiots in my class that wouldn't shut up! Plus she gave me some Apple Jacks, and sour-patch-kids because I ran out of food!
So thank you Keyana!
P.S. I'm captain in Gym/P.E. class tomorrow and my teacher makes us pick people and it has to go boy, girl, boy, girl, boy, girl........
So I have to pick a guy first, and everyone is like "Ooooooo, someone's got a crush". I'm like "No! Now grow up! Before I throw a brick at your face"!
I honestly don't understand why people think guys and girls can't be friend without people saying that one of them or both ave a crush on one another.
It's not true..........
Well that was a random vent, but I can be like that sometimes :)
Well now, I think that's it.
