"Catherine! Catherine!" Said someone shaking me. I looked around everything was fuzzy. Who is this dumb person for saving me. I wanted to freaking die. "Catherine are you ok?" Asked the stranger. "Yeah.." I said sitting up holding my head. My view became more clearer. Garret. The one who freakin saved me. "Why?" I asked him as I got up. "Look I can explain me and Hannah if you just let m-" he started to say. "No I meant why did you say me.." I said walking away. "You drove off a bridge, I'm gonna help you, is that a crime?" Garret said chasing after me. I didn't answer him. "Shit the jeep!" I said looking over the bridge at the jeep in the lake. "It's ok, you didn't mean to." Said Garret. I looked at him and back at the jeep. "I have to go." I said walking away. "Your going the wrong way to your house." He said. "Who says I'm going home." I said walking towards the school. "I'll come with!" He said running up to me. "Your the last person I would like to be with." I said. "Look, I'll tell you everything about me, if you do the same. Your so complicated." He said. I gave him the dirtiest glare. "I'm complicated?" I said looking at him. "I'm sorry I didn't mean it as a mean or-" he started. "Forget it." I said walking to the school park. I sat on the bench. "You really wanna know about me?" I asked. "Yes, I really want to." He said putting his hand over mine. I moved my hand away. "My dad died. My aunt.. She came into the house took our money and shot my dad. I was at a friends house at the time. Came back and my dad was died. I had to go move with my drunk ass mom and her fuck boyfriend, who only stays with my mom because of sex, and he can abuse her. The night I came to your house, he tried to rape me. I didn't know what to do. I haven't had anyone in my life to ever really care.. And when you said you did.. It made me think there was hope.. And when you tricked me. I knew there wasn't.. My moms a drunk who cares less about me and just knows she can use the child support money for drugs and beer. She abuses me to and her boyfriend just wants to get in my pants. I honestly thought you were different. But your just like everyone else. Fucked up. And when I found out everyone and this world was.. I wanted to die. So I drove myself off that bridge you saved me from. So thanks for screwing up my life even more." I said looking at the sky feeling tears fall on to my lap. A few moments went by silent. "I'm controlled by my mom. She doesn't want me to end up like my dad, in jail. She wants me to get a good education and live life. So when I told you I didn't have girlfriend I thought maybe you would start feelings for me. No one wants to date me because I'm dating Hannah and the only reason I'm dating her is because of my mom. I liked you the instant I bumped into you on your first day of school, but I didn't know if you would like me back. I wanted to brake up with Hannah for you but I knew my mom would flip. I like you for you and Hannah she isn't herself she's what people say she is." He said watching me. I didn't know he was the person I ran into at school. It was silent again, just breathes, and two fucked up kids hearts beating. "Well I have to go talk to my grandma you can say.." I said rolling my eyes and standing up. "See you around?" He said hugging me. I stood there for a moment and then hugged him back. "Maybe there is hope" he whispered in my ear, and then let go and he walked home.
