Vic's POV
"Where have you two been? We had to watch The Notebook alone!" Jaime said with a little smirk.
"We went on a date." I said squeezing her hand tighter.
My parents went on another trip, one day after they came home. Not that I care. I picked up Maiah and went to my room.
"Wait here." I said and ran downstairs. I put in Coraline for Jaime and Olivia and ran back upstairs to Maiah. She hadn't moved from where I put her. I picked her up and spun her around. She kept yelling for me to put her down, and eventually I did. She smiled and kissed me before running to the bathroom and changing to her pajamas. She came out and it was my turn. I changed quickly and ran back out. Maiah looked like she was sleeping so I slid in beside her quietly so i didn't wake her up. She turned around and faced me.
"Vic, other than seeing my parents today was the best day of my life." She said smiling.
"It was the best day of mine as well." I leaned in a kissed her nose. I turned the tv on and we watched American Horror Story (idk if that's the name aha) until we fell asleep.
Maiah's POV
I woke up and it was 4. It was Monday so we had school. Ugh. I looked at Vic who looked adorable. Aw. I kissed his forehead before closing my eyes. I didn't fall asleep but I closed them.
"Maiah." Vic said. My eyes shot open to see his looking into mine. "You know I can feel when you kiss me." He said smiling a little.
"I'm sorry." I said blushing a little.
"Don't be. It's a nice way to wake up." He said pulling me closer to him. Our lips met and I swear I felt fireworks. He leaned back and smiled. I laid my head on his chest and fell asleep.
Vic's POV
"Maiah. Baby time to wake up. It's 5." 30 minutes before we normally get up but we wanted to make everybody breakfast before school. I snapped out of my thoughts when I seen Maiah move. She got up and got dressed. I did the same and we went downstairs to see Jaime and Olivia sleeping on the couch. We snuck to the kitchen and made waffles. Jaime got up and ran in the kitchen when he seen what we were making.
"IS THAT FOR US!?" he said excitedly. I nodded. "SWEET LORD JESUS I LOVE THIS HOUSE!" he said as we slid the food in front of his face. He shoved it in and we just laughed.
"Hey." Olivia said rubbing her eyes. We gave her food and she ate it faster than Jaime did. When they were done, they went downstairs and got dressed. When they came back up, we left the house and walked to school. Mike was joining next week so he got to sleep in.
When we got to school, we all went to first hour together. Maiah and I were nervous all morning. Finally lunch came. We looked around for Matt. Nothing. We shrugged and went to the vending machine. Somebody grabbed our wrists. Hard. Maiah and I shared worried glances and turned around to see Cheyenne holding Maiah's wrist, and Matt holding mine.
~~~~AUTHORS NOTE!~~~~
I'm copying the things that happened in this chapter, but I will dedicate it to them. I'm sorry but It was a really good idea. Okay bye!
"Clairemont High! Do we have something to tell you! Shut up and listen!" Matt yelled. Cheyenne and him dragged us up to a table and we had to stand on it. If it meant leaving us alone, I'll do anything.
Cheyenne ripped Maiah's shirt up, only to reveal the scars. She slid up her sleeves as well. Matt slid up my sleeves too.
"These idiots have a dirty little secret! They cut. Gross right?! They have like a bazillion cuts and its all because they were made fun and and hurt. Who thinks they need to get the fuck over it!?" Matt yelled. Nobody said anything. A few looked at their feet, embarrassed. Others shared looks to each other. Some pulled their sleeves down. We weren't the only ones.
"Come on! Look at this! It's gross!" Cheyenne yelled. She let go of Maiah and Matt let go of me.
"Leave us alone. You got what you wanted now leave us alone." I pulled Maiah down and returned to our table. Everybody watched as we walked but we ignored them. Matt and Cheyenne got a lot of glares. The principal came running in and had a talk with some kids and Matt and Cheyenne. We all returned to our lunch and it became loud again.
"I love you." Maiah said.
"I love you more." I said kissing her cheek. She smiled and looked to where Matt was. He was waving his arms everywhere. Obviously lying. The principal came over to us and told us to come to her office. I grabbed Maiah's hand and we walked to the office. We sat down and she began to talk.
"What happened in there? Matt said that you two started punching and kicking him. Care to explain? Others said that Matt and Cheyenne showed them your scars from cutting? Who to believe, you tell me." She said leaning back in her seat. I sighed and began to talk.
"Well Maiah and I were at the vending machine and Matt and Cheyenne yanked us and made us stand on the table and they showed our scars. He started yelling about how gross it is and he asked if everybody agreed and nobody said anything. Eventually they let us go. We sat down and that's when you came in." I said. Maiah held my hand tighter.
"Why would you let him do that?" I looked at Maiah. She looked at me and then to the principal. She began to speak.
"Matt had been a little spy and has been following us around ever since I broke up with him. He's made our lives a living hell. He gave me this black eye, he's beaten Vic and I up. He came and said I had to date him or he would tell the school out secret. So we chose the secret so he would leave us alone. Doubt he will." She said looking into the principals eyes.
"That's horrible. I'm calling the police. I don't care what you say or what you do, I'm calling them. I'll call you back into the office when I'm done."
"No! You can see what he does to us! Don't call them yet. When we turn the corner from interior design he's always there. That's why we're late for class." I said. She nodded and followed us. We told her where to stay, and we walked "out" of interior design. We missed a whole class period. We turned the corner and he was there. I sighed and pulled Maiah with me. Here we go.
