We'll find her, I'm sure of it.

"How did he even get inside? I just don't just it. I should of never even brought her to my house! It's all my fault.", I say, sitting on the curb, with my phone in my hand. When I called 911, I was hysterically sobbing. I haven't cried in I don't know how long. I guess I've gotten so . . . attached to her. We bonded. I bonded. I feel like it's my fault. "Hey, yo dude! You ok?", Joshua yells, running over to me. He bends down next to me and puts a hand on my shoulder. "Hey, you hurt or somethin'?", he says, concerned. I look up with teary eyes and whisper, "I'm fine, Joshua. I'm fine. Nothing-" Before I can finish my sentence, he wraps his arms around my shoulders and hugs me tight. "We'll find her, I promise." I softly hug him back and say, "Thanks, Josh. Your the best." I pat his head and take a deep breath. I stand up and so does Josh. Josh smiles at me and says, "You good now? Or you need more hugs cause I will gladly hug you 15 more times." I laugh and shake my head. "Naw, I'm good now. Thanks, though. Come on, let's go talk to the Commissioner."

23 mins later

"Ok, what!? Joseph, you are making zero sense right now.", Commissioner Gordon says, putting his fits on his hips. Joshua says, "Come on, Commiss! You got to believe him! He's tellin' the truth!" I kinda glare at Joshua because that's exactly what makes him not want to believe me! Gordon sighs and rubs his temples. "Fine, fine. I believe you, I guess. Ok, then, what's your plan?" I look at Joshua then back at Gordon. Joshua snickers and says, "We'll be right back." and grabs my hand. He leads me a few feet away from Gordon and whispers, "You don't have a plan!?" I shrug and say, "I didn't think that far, yet!" Joshua slaps his hands together and declares, "We will make the best plan in the history of plans!" I stare at him, blinking. He chuckles and says, "Well, we don't go in until . . ." He looks at his watch. "1:00. So, . . . do you wanna go to a restaurant or something?" I raise my eyebrow and say, "Are you saying you wanna go out with me?" He blushes slightly.
