Nobody’s POV

Amara Mason stood in front of her closet contemplating what she was to wear on her date with Reed. She groaned and clutched her head. Even the thought of that boy brought pain to her. She assumed since he was Reed he would probably take her to a party or a rave, so she pulled out a floral tube skirt with pink and green flowers on a black background  and a white tank top. Once she was satisfied with what she had chosen she walked over to her en suite bathroom which she only used on the weekends or when she wasn’t in a hurry. She always worried that if she used the bathtub instead of the shower she would fall asleep and lose track of time. It was a beautiful marble room with gold details. The bathtub was situated in the middle of the bathroom, it had a metallic grey panel right above it where the water comes from. The sink counters stretched from one end of the wall to the other.

She took of her clothes and put them in the hamper just behind the bathroom door and slid on her silk white and blue robe. She turned on the faucet of the tub and let the water run as she headed back to her room. She sat herself down in front of her dresser and started brushing her hair. She sang softly to Skinny Love by Birdy.

Come on skinny love

Just last the year

Pour a little salt

You were never here

My, my, my, my

my, my, my, my.

She wasn’t going to lie, the past week was very stressful and she had a feeling this school year was going to be very difficult. She set her brush down, pinned her up into a messy bun and hopped into the bathtub. She went over the things that had happened today.

-She got two detentions. Amara never got detentions.

-She was officially going out with Reed Myers. The most douchiest sarcastic asshole ever.

-She insulted William Spencer. The guy could kill her within a millisecond.

-She smoked more than three joints in school.

-She got high in school. No pun intended.

-She got suspended for two weeks.

-Her car was towed away while she was getting high with the boys.

-She had another confrontation with Adam.

The last one made her shudder. It had only been thirty minutes ago when she saw Adam. She had gotten a ride from Johnny after Donny, Reed, Johnny and her had gone to the pier to get high and have a couple of drinks after the principal had kicked her and Reed out. So they decided to get the others to ditch the last two hours of school. When she walked into the ought-to-be empty house, she knew straight away he was there. His musky designer french cologne mixed with Marlboro cigarettes used to be one of her favorite smells in the entire world. She immediately dropped her bags and headed for the phone only to find it missing. Her heart started pounding, it was the only thing she could hear, it scared her and also the fact that she couldn’t hear anyone. “Amara..”, she whipped around to come face to face with the same person that haunted her dreams. “Get out!” she  brushed past him and held the door open for him. 

He walked over to her and snaked his arms around her waist. He stared at her while she looked down at her feet. She had always felt uncomfortable when she was this close to him and he knew it. “You always played hard to get. You were meaner the last time I came over, didn’t even open the door for me. So you see that’s why I had to let myself in.” He placed soft kisses up and down her jaw and on her neck. Amara lightly pushed him away. “You have to go Adam.” He tried to hold her hand but she quickly pulled it away. “I have a boyfriend.” Those words could have possibly saved or ended her life, but either way they felt so natural and easy to say. She looked up from under her lashes to see Adam’s reaction and wasn’t surprised at what she saw. His face was blank, expressionless. “Ok” was all he said and he walked out. She knew he would be back and he knew she knew.
