you opened your eyes shift around, you blink a couple times before finally getting up and beginning to get dressed, you put on some basic loose jeans and a band tee. You brush out your hair and leave it natural like you always do. You still hope deep down that you will walk through those doors and Steve will run up to you embracing you in a long bear hug before he rambles about all the stuff he's been patiently waiting to tell you. You imagine this for the entire 10-minute bike ride to school tears start to swell in your eyes, but you just wipe them away. You put your bike in the rack and walk into school, instead of the warm embrace you have imagined all morning you see Steve with his hand on a locker and him leaning into a girl, Nancy Wheeler to be exact, Mikes older sister. The tears you just wiped away a few minutes ago started to swell again and you sped past them looking for the restrooms, you rush in and find a stall to hide in you tuck your knees into your arms and start to bawl your eyes out. A girl comes in with a familiar voice " are you okay?'' its Robin Buckley, an old friend from middle school band. You come out of the stall and hug her crying into her shoulder. "I can't believe he didn't even give me an explanation and now he's with HER, out of everyone here he chose HER" Robin just pats your back and gives u a napkin to wipe your tear-soaked cheeks. "I mean she bullied me relentlessly, she made me want to end it all and when I told him about it, he told me to 'forget her' and now he's WITH her, I can't believe this." Robin just nodded sympathetically and walked you to your classes for the rest of the afternoon. When you got home you just grabbed your Walkman and threw in your favorite cassette tape and crawled into bed staring at your ceiling. "why, why her, out of everyone he could have chose why did it have to be her?"  you lift up your forearm and stare at healed scars, he knows she pushed me to do this, and he still went for her. all you could do was cry until you fell asleep exhausted. You woke up and washed your face, brushed out your hair and grabbed some comfier clothes. Some black sweats, a grey tank, and a black zip up hoodie. Robin was going to meet you at the front doors of the school and be your new friend from now on since obviously Steve isn't coming around any time soon. A/n sorry these chapters are so short I'm trying to make them detailed but not long so we can get to the actual good part of the story lol.
