We ended up kissing. She said that I should go to sleep, I told her not without you near by. In the end we both slept in my room. It didn't feel quite right, letting her sleep in Adam's bed, but where else would she have slept?
Morning came too fast as it does in these situations. I looked over to see if Beth was awake yet, but she wasn't there. There was only a piece of paper left on the pillow.
"Last night was amazing. I love you so much. Good luck in California. Hope I'll hear from you often." Were some of the many things written all over it. I looked on the back to see if there was more, there was.
"Try not to forget about us." Was written with much emphasis on 'us'. A picture of two people holding hands, and looking madly in love was also there. Upon closer inspection I could see it was me and Beth. It was actually a really good drawing. I folded up the paper carefully, got dressed, and put the paper safely in my back pocket.
I wasn't really sure what to do now. The clock read 9:31 in the morning. I didn't know when the guys were coming to get me, or if I should go wait in the lobby or not. I decided to just wait in my room.
Sitting on my bed, waiting, was a little nerve racking. Left with my thoughts, I was thinking about everything and anything. I was most curious about what will lay in store for me after today. Christa seems like a really person, and I know Ray is. I'll probably get to see Lindsey, Jamia, and Alicia too, plus Bandit, Cherry, and Lily. Then they'll be Mikey's kid too. So many people, and they'll all be my family practically.
I really must have been consumed by my thoughts, because when I looked at the clock again it was a little after 11:00. Just then there was a knock on my door, and it was flung open. I was tackled by someone who was laughing along with others who came in with him. Soon enough I realized who it was. The Afro was unmistakable.
"Ray!" I said between laughs. The guys who were laughing around us starting laughing harder. Until one of them hit the ground. Ray got off me, now I could see it was Frank who was on the ground. He was clutching his sides in obviously excruciating pain.
