(A/N:The photo uptop was literally the only photo i could find the showed hunters bed and shit in the background so idk  im trying dawg)

"So, this is my room" hunter announces once he gets to the very bottom of the steps. I nodd my head in approval looking around the room. theres Posters everywhere, more posters than i have in my room and thats saying something. infront of you to the left, (bc i think the doorways on the right side of the rooom..???) theres a spot with drums and guitars and chords and speakers and all that shit. Damn he is a metalhead. and than infront of the drums against the wall is a bed with blankets thrown everywhere. at the bottom of the bed as a small table where a tv sits and like 3 remotes. and to the left of the bed is a doorway (which is either a closet or a bathroom. i can never know)

"yea this is lit bro" hunter chuckles at my words as he sits down in an armchair infront of the drums. i sit in a chair next to the drums. me and hunter sit in awkward silence both not really knowing what to say.

"so are you ok?" i blurted out. hunter looked at me confused not knowing what im talking about

"Like you know with uhm..skip? throwing you in the speakers?" He looks down embarrissed as soon as i said skip. hunter nods slowly

"dont be embarrissed you know. hes an asshole..i know because hes my ex" i say with an eyeroll. hunter looks at you arupbtly

"you DATED him?!" his eyes are wide and his mouth is open

"Everyone said that i should. thay all said 'ohmygod you guys would be so cute!' or 'Everyone will know you as the power couple'" i say in a shrilly voice making hunter snort.

"why did you change?" i looked up at him confused. 

"what do you mean..?" 

"well..imean you just came in the school one day a completely different person. imean there were rumors, but..i diddent pay attention to them. imean it was a rumour about a preppy girl what else is new..but then you walk in all.." he checked me out again

I took in a deep inhale. he really diddent know. i wonder how many people diddent know anything. no wonder people were so confused.

"I was a girl who diddent have a choice of anything. I diddent get a choice to eat or not, my peers or..'friends' made that choice for me. i diddent get a choice what i wore, my stepmother chose that for me. i diddent get a choice on who i dated, my 'friends' chose that for me, and i diddent get a choice to act freely. my stepmother chose that too. so i was literally...a doll. i diddent get a choice at anything because everyone around me made it seem like popularity was the most important thing in the world. they made it seem like if i stopped being popular the world was gonna end and for some dumb fucking reason....i beleived them. untill one day, i took it too far" i felt hunters eyes steadily on me, watching me and listening intently.

"I ended up gagging myself in the bathroom and passing out almost dying." Hunters face dropped. All of the emotion, all the color leaked from his face.

"I woke up in the hosital and...it was as if i lost my memory and woke up as a new person. or if someone hit me so hard it knocked all the sense i hid in the very back of my bones, and finally, the knocked it right into me. i looked back on everything ive done and decided...I diddent wanna be that person. I wanted to be like my dad"

"Wheres your dad..?"

"Hes uhm...Hes not around anymore

"your mom?"

"Cancer" hunter slowly nodded.

"thats...alot to go through i uhm..i know how that feels actually. he looked at me with guilt.

"well, i guess we can bond over trauma" hunter snorted again before nodding in agreement.

i looked at the clock on hunters wall before getting up arubtly

"hey shit, i gotta go, its 12:25. uhm, but ill talk to you tomorrow?"

Hunter smiled at me warmly and nodded

"yea. see you tommorrow. want me to walk you out?" hunter stands up arubtly

"Oh no, ill be ok. imean..unless you want toooo?" hunter stands there stunned with his mouth open.

"uhm..." i laugh at his awkwardness kissing him on the cheek. 

"see you tomorrow" i walk up the stairs and out the front door before stopping dead in my tracks. Holy shit! did i just kiss him on the cheek... "HOOLLYY SHIITT!" i scream. i jump around and get in the car. i giggle like a little girl blushing mad before stopping.

"Yo...keep cool casey...damn" i drive out of the driveway and drive home blushing mad to myself.
