Our first hurdle came sooner than I thought.
Noah had sent Kaylee a text to meet up for lunch at school on Monday, but she didn't reply. I had a bad feeling, but Noah the optimist still suggested we try to find her at lunch.
So instead of eating at our table like normal, we started to wander the quad and looked for her. Noah asked someone he knew if they had seen her around today, and we were pointed in the right direction. A bench under a shady tree.
There, a group of girl's sat at a bench, talking and laughing. I recognized some from our classes, but not all. Kaylee was the only one I really knew.
"Kaylee!" Noah waved.
The girls went quiet and looked at us. Feeling shy, and just a little intimidated, I took a step behind Noah.
Kaylee frowned at the sight of us, making me uncomfortable. She stepped away from the group of girls and came over. "What do you want?"
I shrunk back.
