Parker had nothing on his mind since 1st period exsept Anastasia.
And his jackass dad.
He wondered when he was going to have the guts to show his dad how much he hurt him.
Skylar came and sat by Parker.
"Hey."
Skylar smiled.
"Why the long face?"
Parker panicked trying to hide it.
He smiled back. It was a sad smile.
"I'm okay."
Skylar smiled.
"Okay. Call me if you need me."
At the end of the class Parker found a place to hide. And cried.

At the end of school he was asked where he was, why he was there. The Painful two questions. Always the painful two questions.
He smiled and shrugged it off.
He was walking towards his car looking for Anastasia when he felt a tap on his shoulder.
He turned around and smiled.
"Hey Anne." She smiled and hugged him.
"Thank you."
When they got in the car it was quiet at first.
Then she asked.
"Whats on your arm?"
He smiled.
"Cat scratches."
She felt stupid.
"Oh."
He smiled.
She turned and looked at him.
"Why do you like me? I'm not popular like you."
He looked at her.
"Not everything has to be from a high school movie Anne. Your nice, kind and just...kinda perfect."
She smiled.
"Thank you."
In her head she was screaming her thanks to God.
