Chapter 20
I hopped out the truck and headed to where Piper was last seen. She was still there, of course. She was sitting down, vandalizing one of the tablecloths with a gel pen. I walked over to her and sat next to her, folding my arms.
"Hey, look who's here." She smiled, "That boyfriend of yours is annoying."
I shook my head. "He's not my boyfriend."
"If you say so." She smirked.
I sighed. "You know, you could've been a little nicer to him."
"Your point is..."
"You don't have to pick on everyone you meet." I sighed.
"Why not?"
"Because it's annoying, Piper. Can't you see that?"
"How?"
"It just is!" I snapped. She paused for a second, stunned at my sudden change in tone. I rarely got mad at people. Piper knew this. We'd been friends forever.
"Someone's in a crappy mood." She said, letting out an uncomfortable laugh. "Mind telling me what's up?"
I didn't want to tell her. Piper never took anything seriously. But at this point, I needed to talk about it. My throat tightened as I managed to choke out, "We found Mason."
"You did?" she asked, raising her brows. "That's good, right?"
I shook my head.
"Why is that not good?"
When I didn't answer her, there was a long pause. Finally, it dawned on her, and her smile faded. "Oh my god..."
