Awful Things.

Chapter 5: Plans?

Leah's POV

(black jeans with holes, black shirt that has MHA on the front)

As I got to school I couldn't help but just think about Atlas. It is my second day here. I looked at my paper and finally got to my first class. MR. Josh, he's an English teacher. As I made my way to my seat someone texted me.

UNKNOWN: hey.

ME: Whos this?

UNKNOWN: It's Haley u idiot.

ME: HEY!!! I miss you bitch!!

HALEY: I miss you too, How's living in Florida?

ME: It is okay. I met a boy and oh my god. I have to tell you about him! I will call you after school! I love and miss you!

I put my phone under my thigh. I missed Hayle. She and I have been friends forever. She knew my dad. She knew what happened. She knew everything. She knew my secrets. But she and I don't know if my father is out. We both don't know. But as I sat there and looked at everyone.

"Hey do you have heterochromia or is it eye contact?" I hate when people asked me that. I looked at the girl in her face, her square jaw, oval eyes, and her arched eyebrows. She was beautiful, her dark skin glowed and her blue eyes glistened.

"It's heterochromia." I kept looking at her. She nodded and finally the bell rang. I was looking around as the teacher spoke. After 5-minutes Atlas walked in.

"I'm sorry Mr, Josh I had something to take care of," Atlas said as he gave him the slip.

"You are extremely irresponsible Atlas. Your late and all you have to say is you were taking care of something. This is your 4th time being late to my class Atlas." still sounding extremely boring like usual. You can see the stress on Atlas's face.

"I am responsible, I take care of my 2 siblings. I didn't want them to be fostered so in their legal guardian. I'm only 18, have 2 kids to feed, take care of, and on top of that school! Sir, you have no right to say I'm irresponsible." Atlas then took his seat as the teacher was speechless and didn't know how to respond. I then knew where Atlas sat. I got up and walked to him and handed him a note to ask to use the restroom. I then went to Mr. Josh.

" Can I use the restroom," I asked he nodded as I walked out? Atlas followed behind me. Didn't even ask the teacher to use the restroom.

As I got out to the hallway I walked in a different direction away from the restroom. I stopped by some lockers and stood there. As Atlas approached me.

"Atlas are you okay? You seem stressed." I said to him as I crossed my arms. As I spoke he broke into tears. I then pulled him into a hug and he hugged me back.

"There's just so m-much going on right now" He tried to say as he sobbed. I couldn't help but feel extremely bad for him. He must have been holding in all his emotion.

"I know how you feel to an extent. If you need anything I'm here" I told him as I pulled away and wiped his tears away with my thumb. He stared deep into my eyes and I could feel myself going into a trans. The way his pale skin had some red on it from the tears and how there was a little bit of hair on his chin. His pretty eyes stared into mine and I couldn't help but want to kiss him I didn't though. His perfect lips had a smile slowly being written on them.

He is such a beautiful sight. How his hair is messed up and now there's red underneath his eyes. He is just gorgeous.

He looked down at me as we just stared into each other's eyes.
