Azura

A/N: I'm back, sorry for the wait! Hope you enjoy! 

BTW Chapter 9 will not be available here in Wattpad, to read it you have to visit Webnovel.com, put the name of this story (Azura) into the search engine, and read it from there. Heads up! Webnovel is based off coins and chapter 9 coins or a fast pass will be needed to have access. If you do end up going to Webnovel, leave a review so I know you came from Wattpad!

The next morning I woke up before dawn and decided to keep my promise to Mr. Giant, and give school another go.

Right now I'm in the car with Max, on my way to school, and he is beyond pissed off. When I told him that I was going to school today saying he was shocked would be an understatement. He was so angry that he hasn't spoken a word to me since I broke the news to him.

I tap him to try and sign to him but he just ignores me, which I find very hurtful because unless somebody is looking at me, I can't let them know that I am talking to them until I tap them. My decision to become mute was something I decided on my own, but also something that they accepted. Max knows that I'm trying to say something to him, and him completely ignoring me, hurts me more than my nightmares do.

I tap him again, but this time almost as hard as a slap, to let him know that what I want to say is important. Yet again, ignored. I try again and again to get his attention for about a minute before I get upset.

Me now being fed up, I grab the steering wheel and try to force him to pull over the car.

"What the hell, Azura! What are you doing, trying to get us killed?" he yells while alternating his gaze from the road and me, all whilst leveling out the car.

"Pull. Over." Those were the only words I signed to him.

"What? No! No, I'm not pulling over. Why?"

"Pull. Over." I sign again, but slower to show my anger.

He lets out an animalistic groan and pulls the Wrangler over, I then hop out and continue my route to school on foot.

Max, who also hoped out the Jeep, is calling after me with fever.

"Azura! A-Azura, wait! Where are you going?"

I turned around, walking backwards and signed that I was going to school and then turned right back around.

I hadn't walked even two steps before a hand clasps my shoulder and is forcing me to turn around again. I am met with the fury burning in Max's eyes as he glares at me.

"What is wrong with you?" he asks, his voice menacingly low.

"What is wrong with you? I know you don't like that I decided to go back to school, but get over it!" I signed for him. Without even having to look at myself, I could tell I looked like a flailing bird, my arms moving around so much proving my anger.

"Why did you decide to go back? You have enough credits to graduate right now! Why not graduate and save yourself the pain of stupid highschool drama and bullying?"

"I want to be normal!" I sign, a single tear betraying me, I wipe it away quickly.

I could tell he saw the tear fall because all his anger and disbelief subsided and was replaced with realization that I was crying, and it was because of him.

By now the tears are flowing a bit more, but the sobs are silent. Max reaches towards me, hands cupping my face, and wipes the tears away as they fall.
