“Spencer who are you looking for you know Aiden is always late to lunch” Lunch had just started not little over ten minutes ago and yet there is no sign of Ashley. I was able to spot her friend Chelsea already sitting at their usual lunch table. She didn’t appeared to be fazed by the absents of Ashley’s presents.

“Hello earth to Spencer”

“Maddy I’m not looking for Aiden” I replied peering out scanning over nearby lunch tables and the lunch line for the millionth time.

“Than who? Maybe I can help you find them then “

“Umm … it doesn’t matter I don’t see her any way” Madison returns to drooling over my brother Glen, who she happens to be dating as Aiden shows up in front of me.

He leans down kissing me on the lips. “Hey babe I got caught up talking to coach again sorry” Aiden is one of the star basketball players at our high school along with my brother.  

“Its fine have you see Ashley around today?”

“I saw her on my way to second period she said she was heading to the music room. It has been the last I’ve seen of her which is weird normally I see her at least three times before lunch. Maybe she is still down there some times she skips and hides out in there all day.”

“Ok do you know what happen to her eye” Aiden seemed to tense up rather quickly upon hearing my question. He shifted his eyes down to the lunch table.

“What… do you mean?”

“Come on like you haven’t noticed she has a black eye” Aiden’s body language gave away that he had to knows something he was becoming way to fidgety. “How could you not have seen it?”

“Oh her eye Dad wanted us to move some boxes around in the basement. They were pretty heavy and one of them fell off the shelf when she was trying to pull it down. It must have bumped Ash in the face. I didn’t know it blacken her eye though.”

“And what about the wrist pain” Aiden appear to be fluster by my line of questioning.

“Heavy boxes remember my wrist is kinda sore too.”

“Boxes right “ I don’t know about this whole box story Aiden and I have been dating for about five months now and in all that time I have learn Aiden is a terrible lair.
