Parker's POV:
Today i return back to school. It felt as if it was forever to come back. I'm so excited to see my friends again. I'm gonna have to complete probably a lot of missing work. I hope everyone around me is alright and didn't get in any type of trouble when i'm gone.

Beep Beep Beep

I reach over to my phone and press the stop button and stretch my arms out. I pull the covers off of me, and just lay down a few more minutes in bed.

Unfortunately, i fell back asleep.

The next thing i hear is someone screaming in my freaking EAR loudly and i also felt as if the warmth wasn't there anymore. I sleepily tried to reach for it, considering i didn't want to get up yet. I was too comfortable to get up for anything.

I groaned in frustration and put a arm up to cover my eyes. I use my other hand to rub my eyes. Once i was somewhat awake and had the motivation to open my tired eyes. Only to see mama having an annoyed look with her arms crossed.

"good morning mama.." i said in a groggy sleepy voice. She didn't say anything back and walked to leave the room. I sat up and asked, "aren't you gonna say it back, considering you disturbed my beauty sleep mama?". She turned around and said, "no. get dressed and go to school parker." She then left the room, leaving me to have to get up and leave.

I did my morning routine and finally i was awake. I walked back into the room to get dressed and gather my things for the return back to school. After settling my things and rechecking if i had everything i needed; i walked out my room and closed it, and went downstairs to eat.

"good morning mom and mama." i said while heading to the kitchen. "Morning kiddo." mom responded back. But mama said nothing. I guess I annoyed her more than i intended. Anyways, i make some cereal and head to the dining room to eat.

"kiddo?" mom called out. "yeah?!" i yelled out. "Are you ready now?" mom poked her head in and gave me a questioning look. "yeah, let me just clean up after myself. than we can go." i shot a smile at her. Mom nodded and headed back to the kitchen while i go and clean up behind me.

After i cleaned up, i put my bag on and walked out to the main entrance. Waiting there was mom and mama were talking. Mom noticed me and shot me a look that read "are you ready now?"  I nodded and we both said goodbye to mama as we walked out. We headed to the car and i got into the passengers seat while mom sat in the drivers seat.

While we drove to school, mama asked, "parker, are you ready to go back into school?" I thought about my answer and responded with, "yeah...i wanna see my friends again, and catch up on my work." I continued to look out the window while waiting for ma to say something. "well that's good. i just don't want you to get yourself into trouble again...i know you're a strong individual and can defend yourself really good. But i don't want anything to happen to you again..." mom said. "I can take care of myself mom. I can defend myself and not get too injured. Those defend classes you brought me to was worth it and taught me how to fight. Even if that bastard does try anything, i know how to solve it and defend myself. Don't worry about me." I said.

I felt a hand touch my shoulder; and so i turned my head a little; only to meet eyes with my mother. She sighed before saying, "i know...just be safe and don't get in trouble. You're a good kid, and i don't want any others telling or hurting you otherwise.." mom said in a sad tone.
