That voice oh god that voice. Why here? Why now? Ugh I feel sick. The doorknob still turning finally opens and oh no there he is. "Oh Amelia my darling there you are! If I were more of silly man I would've thought you were trying to hide from me and oh- who's this?" Caraway seed exclaims. Oh right me and Chard or whatever his stupid name is were stuck laying on the school floor. "Amelia dear, don't tell me you are cheating on me with this "hooligan" are you dearest?" I finally get up off the floor from laying on it too tired to deal with him. I brush myself off. "Number 1. Caraway seed we are NOT dating. Number 2. Don't call me dearest or darling because just like number 1 we are NOT dating. Number 3. This is Chard or whatever and I was trying to avoid you because WE ARE NOT DATING AND YOU NEED TO STOP FOLLOWING ME AROUND EVERYWHERE." He almost seems hurt for a second after I say all that but like on cue he snaps back into his delusion. UGH I hate it when he's like this. When is he not like this? "Are you feeling alright baby? You seem tense? I have a gift for you if that makes it better dear." Oh please no not the gifts. My room is already cluttered with the ones he gave me yesterday. I know oh woe is me some guy who likes me is getting me gifts but some of them can be weird and some nice it just depends and my mum will not let me throw them away. No matter how hard I try she always ends up having them back in my room.  "Caraway seed please not today I don't have the patience. Stop calling me baby it's weird and WE ARE NOT DATING." I spit out. He makes a pouty face and stares at my shoes. "I would ask but oh never mind I have more pressing questions. Who is he if you're not cheating on me? His name is Chard or something you said right baby?" It's 8 in the morning give me a break! Oh damn it I'm just going to play along so he hopefully leaves me alone and goes to buy another stupid gift or something. "Yes Caraway seed sweetie his name is Chard or something I don't even know. Which proves that I'm not cheating on you." "Even if we're not dating" I mutter under my breath. The smile on his face is even more sickening somehow but okay it worked I guess. "Oh my cutie pie that's so nice to hear! But what were you both doing on the floor? And is he ok?" I look down to see Chard or Cham whatever his stupid cute name was still laying on the floor wheezing in pain. Caraway seed must've stepped on him trying to get to me or something. Ok time to try to work out this situation. I slap on a fake smile.

"Honestly Caraway seed honey I don't even know." I pretend to laugh and act dumb. I'm not dumb though. I'm not like the other girls. I'm different. I tuck my hair behind my ear and smile again. "Oh well that is music to my ears! I just needed to check on you before going to my second class like always. I will be going now but don't think you've gotten out of my gift baby." I internally cringe so hard I think my organs rearranged. He steps over the body of Chard/Cham and is about to step out the door when he turns around to face me with a smile. "Oh and Amelia honeypie? You must stop calling me Caraway Seed it's so formal especially since we're dating. Do call me by my nickname Caraway it sounds nicer coming out of your mouth." I plaster on another smile and cough. "Of course Caraway." He grins even larger somehow and proceeds to glare at Chard/Cham's body on the floor before blowing me a kiss and leaving. Ugh I sit back down on the floor. Talking to myself out loud I exclaim "You'd think for his name having away in it he would go away more often. I start fiddling with the hidden purple strand of hair that I dyed one night to show that I'm not like the other girls and my mum should know that. "Now isn't that a complicated relationship." Chard/Cham wheezes from the floor. Oh hell I forgot he was here. I didn't even think he would know the word complicated much less relationship. He seems like he doesn't bother with those things. "Oh you have no idea." I croak out. My voice is strained from putting on that super sweet one. "I'm still mad by the way and confused. I have no idea how you don't know my name. AND CHARD OR CHAM FOR ONE CERTAINLY ISN'T IT!" He screeches still on the floor. Damn I thought that me falling on top of him made him more calm for a second but apparently I was wrong. He gets up and starts yelling at me again about his name and how important it is and blah blah blah. It all sounds like tv static. The bell rings and I realize I'm still sat on the floor playing with my hair listening to this stupid (but kinda cute boy) drone on about his daddy's money. I'm late for second period crap. Oh never mind I shouldn't care about that stuff anyways it doesn't matter. My mum certainly doesn't care. But Emily my only friend is in that class so I pull myself up. Grabbing my books I stick my tongue out at him and run down to second period.  The shock on his face again was so worth it and it's all I can think about until I reach my class. And to my delight Emily is there at the door seemingly waiting for me. But to my horror she leans over to the guy next to her and gives him a kiss before I can even get through the doorway.
