Maddie's POV:
This week has been shit! I've not been going to school because I quite frankly don't want to. I mean I have been going to school but not going to lessons, and Scarlett is not too happy about that.
"Madeline I don't care. you need to go to class. I've had 5 phone calls this week to say that you haven't been to class and it's only Wednesday"
"Don't call me that!" I shout back at her. We've been arguing for 15 minutes over this.
"Maddie you need to go to your lessons"
"Why I'm only going to be here for a few more months. Doesn't matter"
"Yeah and how do you know that?"
"Dad said so" she scoffed at that.
"Fine whatever. Doesn't mean you have to stop going to school. Your here because your dad wants you to go to school"
"I don't care Scarlett" I'm getting tired of this conversation. It's 8 pm and I've only just been back from dance practise for an hour and already I'm arguing with Scarlett.
"I've had your teacher on the phone telling me how much of a good student you could be if you actually go to their lessons and try in them. Your throwing all of your potential away for what? To annoy your dad because he sent you to come live with me?"
"Yep! Scarlett that's the exact reason. It's like you can read my mind" I reply sarcastically.
"Well what else can the reason be, because I think that pretty much sums it up. your angry at your dad so your trying to annoy him by not going to school." I shake my head at her.
"You don't know me Scarlett. Stop assuming"
"Well what is the reason then Maddie huh?" I ignore her and just leave the room. I don't need to explain myself to her.
I grab my phone and call max, asking him if he can come and pick me up. He picks me up and drives me to a small park.
"Talk or smoke?" He asks me as we sit on the swings.
" Smoke" I say. He passes me a cigarette and a lighter. I quickly light it and take a drag. I need this.
"What's up with you then?" He asks me.
" Parents" he nods knowingly.
"Ah right, fun" I nod.
"What they do now?"
"Nothing. It's more of what I did"
"Continue"
"Skipping school. Scarlett doesn't agree with it"
" So? She wasn't there right? Why does it matter? "
"I don't know. I mean it doesn't, I just.. Everyone keeps on telling me to give her a chance and I don't know what to do"
"Do what you think is right and if it doesn't work then so be it."
"Since when did you become so smart" I joke.
He rolls his eyes at me and just laughs.
"I always have been Madeline"
" Oh shut up with the Madeline. Maximus" he glares at me.
"That was a one time thing and you promised to never mention it" I laugh at him.
For a while we just sit there in comfortable silence. Until he drives me back to Scarlett's.
"Good luck" max tells me as I get out of his car.
It's now happens to be midnight.
I quietly close the front door behind me before making my way to the kitchen for a piece of gum or something to hide the smell of cigarettes.
"Where'd you go off to?" Scarlett asks me. Shit!
"Needed some air"
"Mhm didn't know cigarettes help give you air." Shit!
"Yeah... you should Google it" she rolls her eyes.
"Not funny Maddie. Do you have any on you?" I shake my head. Max wouldn't give me the packet.
"I can't be bothered grounding you. Just don't do it again please" she says before leaving the room.
I expected a while speech on how it's bad for me and that I need to stop. I think I've broke Scarlett. Maybe I'm being too unfair. Maybe I should give her a chance.
