Friend Zone Abby Jimenez Novels & Stories

The air was thick with everything unsaid. So I moved. Carefully at first—until I realized my ankle wasn’t hurting anymore. I paused halfway down the stairs, flexing the joint. The pain that had crippled me was gone. Just… gone. Like it had never existed. My heart thudded. Something about that wasn’t natural. I padded down the steps. Abaddon stood at the far end of the living room with Kiwor and Huron. Tension hung between them like static. Huron’s head was down. His red curls clung to his face like a curtain of shame.

It has been two months since we arrived in Newberry Falls. Almost fifteen hours from our home. Sadie and I are in a one-bedroom apartment and have been going by the names Bobby and June. We thought it would be better to change our names for now. We still have three months before we turn eighteen. We have decided to stay here until we’re both eighteen and then move again. The only person that knows of our whereabouts is Tyler.

So her name is Abby—nice name for a mysterious girl. "But what she meant that Abby didn't tell them I'm studying here?" "And James. What a small world." The red-haired girl grinned at James, who also smiled at her with a surprised look on his face. The girl stood up and gave James a quick hug. They knew each other?" "I'm sorry about last time. Abby turned down the blind date. Abby, James is supposedly your blind date." Abby looked up this time at James, surprised, blushing. "Oh really? It should have been fun." James said, smiling, and sat on the other side of Abby.

Slade went. "I will make sure something like this never happen again. Just trust me. You have to trust me, mom" she gasped. "Mom, I miss you. Nothing would have been sweeter than you in your human rights mode flanked by my zombie character, I am now a zombie fighter. They call me city hunter since I have started completing your targets" she wiped a tear that drop from her eyes. "Over ten years, I'm still shedding tears. I guess I can never get used to it" she felt like someone was coming towards her from behind.

More moments that take me away from thoughts of Ruby. My phone buzzes, snapping me back to reality. I’d forgotten about my inquiry. L: Any news? Joy: Yeah, I found something. Abbie Gomez—she was Xanthe’s girlfriend. But there’s something strange… Joy leaves me hanging, so I press her. L: What is it? Joy: Abbie… she looks just like Ruby. Damn it. I didn’t anticipate Joy uncovering this much. Stay calm, Luna. L: Really? Send me their photo.

Stepping into the room, Daisy quickly flipped her light switch. 'Dang it! The power is out again.' Her thoughts raced as she walked slowly into the dark room. Just then the light flickers on. "Surprise!" The voice of Allison Melody and her two friends Vicki and Christiana broke through the silence. "Happy birthday, Daisy!" Allison and her friend's voices reverberate through the apartment, echoing with warmth and excitement. Daisy stood frozen, caught between the rush of adrenaline from the initial shock and the sudden flood of relief that washed over her.

I wink at him and smile. “What’s your name, Poppet?” He asks Abby. “Abby. My Aunt Cass works here now.” He stops at a table and pulls a chair out for Abby and then for me. “Wow, Cass is your aunt? That’s amazing. I’m Ziggy. I’ll send your Aunt Cass right out. I have her washing dishes right now.” He grins “She’s my slave, muhahaha!” He gives a fake laugh and rubs his hands together.

The small movement to my cheek causes me to flinch. Abby is by my side instantly checking my face out and going back to her bag to pull out a cold compress and some arnica cream. She starts rubbing the cream on my cheek softly and when her eyes meet mine I see a glimpse of compassion. She seems to be a very soft-hearted girl. She also seems to be a bit on the young side. She has long blonde curly hair and bright blue eyes. Her frame seems thin but in a way to where she just still hasn't grown all the way into her body. She is wearing stripped pajamas and a white spaghetti strap. I almost want to call her cute. "I'm Candice." I say to her, trying to ease out of the awkwardness.

“Athina is doing well and keep in mind you’ll be losing a tooth once I tell her you called her fat.” She laughed loudly, “Have her know I’ve been taking Jujitsu classes.” I shook my head at Abby's humor. It was certainly one thing I’ve missed about her. “How is it going over there?” “Pretty slow but good. No more trolls on our social media pages. Per your instruction, I reached out to the beauty influencer and she’ll be having a dinner party here with a group of five.” I headed over to the sitting room and crashed on my new couch.

After a while, Abby taps me on the shoulder, pulling me to the side, and I hold up a finger letting the guys know we'd be a minute. "You need to pee?" I ask, and she shakes her head. "Just...look, I know it's your birthday, but there's this cute guy at the bar who's on the men's swim team," she mumbles, and I glance quickly, seeing a tall, tan man laughing with the guy beside him. "His name is Jose, and I've really liked him for a while...look, I swear I'll be right back, just do you think." "Abby, shoot your shot," I insist. "He's cute, and you've done so much today for me. Go for it."
