Book Mysteries Revealed | Colin & Annie
Two days.
It has been exactly two days since the last time Annie saw or spoke to Colin.
Two dreadful days. Of course, she recorded him reading an excerpt from his book out loud to everyone! Annie had been so excited to hear he would finally be sharing from his mysterious first novel (one he notoriously refused to give her any info about!) at his and Alan’s party. The day had finally come!!
However, now that she’d heard it, and well, heard it over and over again (every moment she got since the night) - she finally understood why she was so perplex by it.
The heroine was her; that was it. This girl, in his book, it had to be her. Annie had found so much familiarity in his work, and every time she listened to the story over again, it’s as if Colin was talking about her to someone. And when this hypothesis about his book finally dawned on Annie, she finally got off her bed and went straight to Colin’s house.
Of course, this happened at like 2am in the morning, but she’d been so wrapped up in her mind that time didn’t really seem to matter. Besides, she’d missed him more than she realized. Plus, he must have known something was up because he hadn’t tried to talk to her either.
On her way to his house, Annie made sure to grab a couple pizza’s. So when she entered from the back door, she handed one to Bobby telling him to save some for Chase and then headed straight for Colin’s room. She didn’t even bother to knock before she walked right in. He could be naked for all she knew, but this was important business and she couldn’t wait till morning.
“Colin,” she said, closing the door behind her as she quietly went over to the side of his bed and turned on his lamp. Annie patted him lightly, before sitting on the side of his bed. “Wake up,” she mumbled, “I’ve brought pizza,” she added, before placing the box right on top of him.
