Hi guys hope you enjoyed the last chapters, I have had a few messages on the length of my stories (being too short). I was going to try and change that in this story and make it a longer book than usual, I'm not too sure about doing long books yet, so if anyone has any advice on how to write lengthy stories/chapters, please message me on that. Thanks guys! ~CyanWaves

*OLIVIA BLOOM*

It's been a month since Kale had passed away, I miss him so much. I wake up every morning thinking that he will ring or text. I ring his phone sometimes to hear his voice on the voice mail.

I had gone to school several times, but always got excused for not paying attention or for just pondering about. A few times I snapped at a teacher, got sent out and so on. I also started smoking. I don't even know why, just seems like a tolerance thing, need something to calm me down. I'm always so angry, I know it isn't my fault. They think I should go and see the school councillor, I'm not having any of it. I've lost my best friend, that's it. Nothing more to it. I don't cry any more, I've cried too much, it's too hard, and Kale would definitely not want me to keep crying.

I'm going back to school for good today, I need to, I've missed out enough, I need to get the grades to move on. Miss West has been bringing me work everyday so I don't completely fail. She's been there for me, a perfect stranger. She barely knows me and she has been there with me, more than my parents. Which isn't a surprise. I haven't stopped arguing with my parents for the last month, I'm angry, I can't help it.

The last few times I was in school, I threw a pair of jeans and a baggy top on, I didn't even wear make up and I had my hair up. I probably looked like I'd taken every drug in the world. I showered and got changed into Black jeans, biker boots, a white swing top and a black jacket. I curled my hair and put make up on. I looked myself in the mirror.

"You can do this" I whispered.

I grabbed my bag and threw things in it. It was a Monday so I had psychology and English all morning. Then the afternoon off, a good start.

Pongo, what can I say, he knew what was going on, Kale, Pongo and I were always together, so Pongo is going through the same thing, I bet I sound like a complete nut case, but dogs know.

I got there and stepped out the car. I immediately felt like everyone was looking at me, and they were. It was like I was an alien or something. I swear it's as if they could sense me there. I walked to registration leaving all the whispers behind. I walked into the registration class and the whole place went silent, I knew I should have come early. I took my seat, and everyone started talking again. I glanced at Kale's chair. Shit. This was horrible. He should be there, taking the piss out of my hair or the fact that I'm drooling over Miss West.

Miss West walked in, she did the register, Kale's name wasn't said. The bell rang, and Miss West pulled me to the side.

"Are you okay to be here Olivia?" She asked

"Yes, I need to be here" I said, I turned and walked out. Kale would have said that was a perfect exit.

I walked to English and sat down, this guy sits next to me.

"You okay Olivia?" He asked.

"Yeah I'm alright, thank you, are you new?" I said looking at him, he laughed.

"No, but I was friends with Kale, he was such a good guy, can't believe you've just asked me if I was new!" OMG I should have recognised him.

"Bailey?" I asked.

"Yeah!" He said laughing. "I lost weight and dyed my hair" I recognised him now.

"How are you doing anyway?"I said. He smiled and placed his hand on my arm.
