"Look who finally came back out of hiding." Tyler attempted to joke, but I simply sent a glare his way, the situation still proving a fresh cut to me. "Ok, I'll be tame. If it makes you feel any better, Josh left with Leah." Once Tyler had told me, I'd expected to feel a little more relieved than I
Each dreaded step I took on the way into school felt like a death sentence, and not mine. The anger still rose up inside my mind whenever Josh's face would show itself in my subconscious, which was more that I wanted it to. The breeze was a little heavier than usual, and also colder, which was high
I struggled to get any more words out until April pushed past me and spoke instead. "Come with us to the bathroom, I'm having a girl emergency." April pulled the both of us from the cafeteria, my eyes still wide with shock. I prayed that this was just a glitch and we would be sat our usual table a
The sun had set completely, with a slight orange haze lighting up the navy sky ahead of us as I drove home to where we would have to strategically hide everything we had bought. "Um—Savannah?" Sarah's voice was full of uncertainty as I turned slightly, ensuring that I kept my vision focused on the
It had barely been over a week since the twins were born. And I was already at the breaking point of wanting to move out and spend the rest of the time for my parents to get back, elsewhere. The twins had kept the whole house up every night, except for James, who seemed to worryingly sleep throug
Like most schools, the teacher in charge was absent and I could imagine they'd gone off to do something else with the knowledge that their pay grade shouldn't entail watching students stare at the floor. In some way, I was now hoping that Tyler was here to guide me instead of walking in blindly to a
My mood was at an all-time low when I finally reached the worst part of my day. Josh was leant back in his seat, like usual, and scanning his surroundings of the cafeteria whilst the rest of us spoke about minuscule issues such as the new team colours for the game tonight and also Ryan's unfortunate
I paced back and forth beside my car as I waited for Valentina and April to finally appear beside me in the parking lot. Tom had already made his way onto the bleachers to meet with Josh, Harvey and Henry whilst I remained waiting for the girls, not wanting to even look at Josh after the cafeteri
"No you didn't. Who did that, Savannah?" It was Tyler now that sounded even angrier. "It was just a misunderstanding when Josh was in his fight." I could tell by his flinch that Josh didn't like knowing it had happened when he wasn't there. "It really isn't a big deal." I stared down at my hands, h
Josh pushed the door with his hand, shoving himself inside the house without permission. "What the hell was that today?" His voice was filled with an anger yet I could sense the almost guilt behind his words, like he had been the cause of it. "I—" "What the fück happened to your face?" He interrup
I knew that I was taking my unnecessary anger out on them, but they had infuriated me just as much as Isabella did. "But, it was Josh—" Valentina attempted to speak but I'd easily interrupted, wanting to get as much off my chest when I had the chance. "Since when did you care what Josh thought? Yo
The shooting pain seemed to persist through my jaw as I walked into school the day after the fight. I had battled my way through multiple tubes of concealers and foundations to somehow cover up the monstrosity of a bruise now displayed against my skin. However, in combination with covering my face,
His yellow teeth were prominent as he evilly smiled and pulled my face closer to his. "I'd like to leave your boyfriend a little gift if you don't mind." I pressed my back harder into the car behind me, hoping to somehow set off an alarm for any type of help. However, I hardly felt the impact of hi
* My stomach seemed to do a backflip as Valentina's car pulled up onto the grass of the field I now felt uncomfortably familiar with. "I can't believe this place even exists." She shouted excitedly with the four of us in the car. Henry helped both April and I out onto the muddied grass once we'd p
The library was thankfully silent in my free period before lunch, providing me with the perfect atmosphere to quietly complete my work and finally turn it in. After reading over the information a few more times, I finally clicked the button and closed my eyes, thanking the heavens that I had final
My whole body experienced the stiffness of sleeping on the couch instead of my own bed when I finally woke up. My eyes adjusted to the light coming through the window as I noticed Valentina and April still asleep around me. I couldn't remember falling asleep last night, let alone when Josh had even
Therefore, I stood closer to the line and threw the ball towards Josh's open arms. However, without me even realising, he now brought his arms forward and caught the ball I had just thrown, causing our team to lose. Anger somehow got the best of me as I stormed towards where he was, now smirking a
