12,

ellas point of view

i wake up the next morning v early. oh my god. wtf happened last night.

i scurry around and find my clothes, i go to the bathroom and rinse my face with water.

i go back in the room and shake chris awake. "chris!" i whisper. i shakehim even harder "wake up!!"

he slowly opens his eyes and smiles at me, "i'm going to school okay?" his smile fades.

"i'm gonna fail if i don't go and my mom threatened to ground me." i say upset as well. "okay, your coming over after right?" he asks letting out a sigh.

"duh" i say putting my jacket on. "if alex even talks to you, text me." he says with a stern voice. i nod my head and exit his room. i go wake matt up.

"benny! wake up i need a ride to school!" i whisper yell. "ughhhhhh" he groans throwing the blanket off him and putting a hoodie on.

we go to the car and talk about last night. "i still cannot believe you punched him in the face!" i laugh slightly. "i know it hurts really bad" he smiles.

"lemme see" i say he takes his eyes off the road for a second to give me his hand. i see that it's literally like purple and red. "matt i think you like literally broke it." i say with wide eyes.

"definitely should go to the hospital after this bruh" i say giving his hand back. he shrugs and keeps driving.

"you know who to text if he bugs u" he says before driving off. dropping me off at school.

i take a deep breath and walk in. everyone's looking at me. ugh.

i go straight to the deans office and sit there before class and chat w him.

"ella what's on the back of your neck." he asks squinting his eyes.

"huh" i ask pulling my phone screen up and putting it on the camera to check. there is bruising all around the back of my neck and it looks like hand marks. fucking hell.

"oh nothing" i say pulling my hair in front of it. "ella" he says looking at me in the eyes. "it's nothing i said!" i reply loudly. he closes his office door and calls the nurse in. she moves my hair to the side. "don't touch me." i respond pulling away. "ella if you don't let us look we have to call the police."

she looks at my neck and looks at me with saddened eyes. she then nods her head at mr. phil.

he picks the phone up calling the office saying that our principle needs to come right away. "well i'm late for class so i'm gonna go." i say standing up. "sit." he responds.

the principle comes in and they call the police. "this is so fucking stupid! it's literally a rash!" i yell. "ella that's not a rash and you know it. we wanna know who did this to you." he responds.

the police come in and tell me that i need to go with them. r u kidding rn. 

i grab my phone and text chris.

ellabella <3: their taking me to the police station. i'm fucked.

chrissy: wth why??

ellabella<3: bruising on my neck idk how we didn't see it.

i put my phone in my bag and walk out with the police i get into the car and drive to the station.

i get there and i'm seated into the waiting room for like 20 minutes. the police come with a boy who i recognized instantly "hey let him go!" i stand up and yell "ella don't yell at them." chris tries to speak "shut up chris." i reply. "this wasn't him now let him go."

"sit down ella" my mom grabs my hand. "this is fucking bullshit." i groan and plop into my chair.

"ella my love, who did this to you?" my mom looks at me, tears welling in her eyes. i tear my eyes from hers "i'm literally fine, why is everyone being so fucking dramatic." i say.

"ella can you come with me?" a police man says. i walk into a room and a women sit with me. "you know we wanna put whoever did this away in jail right?" she says.

"i'm not talking to u until i see chris" i respond crossing my arms. she nods at the police man and brings chris in. i look back at him and i wanna cry he looks so distraught and upset. i frown and him.

"why are his knuckles bruised?" she asks me, "we have a punching bag at the house" i say proud about my lie. chris sighs. "oh well chris said he got mad at punched the walls." she says.

"his name is alex porter." chris says i turn and look at him. "we can't cover for him anymore and i'm not gonna get locked up because of that prick." i nod my head at him and continue "my ex boyfriend saw me and a party last night and grabbed my neck tightly." i say tears threatening to drop.

"now till you please just let us go home." i say with a scratchy voice.

"we just have to take pictures of the bruising for evidence and search come clothed parts of your body to check for more bruising" she says trying to move my hair. "touch me bitch and i will literally fight you." i say standing from my chair.

"ella if you don't listen we will make you" she says calmly "oh really bitch? how?" i say taunting her.

two men come and hold my hands down at the table and begin to cut my shirt

"hey what the hell are you doing! stop!" chris yells but the pull him out of the room. i sob as they search my body. they take pictures of my neck and give me a big shirt to put on.

i walk out the the room with tear stained cheeks. "let's go home yea?" chris says standing from the waiting room.

my mom and chris stand up and we go to the car. i haven't said a word.

we all get back to my house we walk into the door. "ella babe r u hungry?" my mom asks me. i ignore her and walk into my room.

i lay in my bed and i hear movement in the room. "i'm so sorry about today el, but you need to eat" he says taking a seat on the bed. "can we just go to sleep?" i cry and look over at him.

"yea" he hums and lays down. i then and lay my head on his chest. he kisses my head.

"i love you ella" he says. "i love you too" i whisper

"no ella, i'm in love with you."
