N O V A

I couldn't stay there anymore.

I had to leave before I did even more damage.

I had to get away before I hurt someone.

So, that's why I ran away and into the woods behind the football field. I didn't care if I got expelled, I didn't care if I would get the worst punishment ever, and I didn't care if everyone at school thought I was fucking insane.

I didn't care...

I kept running and running until I came to a hill that looked out amongst a field of lilacs. I came to a stop; I didn't realize how much I was panting until I couldn't breathe. I dropped to my knees and dug my fingers into the grass, clutching down hard and still shaking with rage.

I still had so much rage in me to let out, that I began pounding down on the ground shouting and ripping out the grass from under me. I kept ripping and ripping until I had nothing but dirt around me. I was grunting in frustration with nothing to let my anger out.

I looked up at the sky and screamed with everything in me, that it made the birds around me fly away.

I then slumped down with numbness in me.

I know I have said this before many of times, but I wish I wasn't this way, but I am, and I can't help it and I don't know how else to cope or let out this rage inside of me It is just too much.

I don't know how long was sitting there looking out at nothing in particular, until I heard panting and footsteps behind me, but I didn't care if it was the damn school security guards to come and drag my ass back for my stupid expulsion. So, I didn't turn around and just kept looking forward.

"H-Hey luciérnaga.." I heard the panting voice of Cisco " W-wow what a g-great view...Whew..hold on let me catch m-my breath..." He wheezed as I heard him come closer.

" What are you doing here Cisco?" I sighed.

"We came...to...check...on you..." I heard Levi hollered out of breath, if he is here too so is Kai.

"You guy's shouldn't be here. You'll get in trouble if your here." I said numbly still looking ahead.

I still didn't turn around and brought my knees to my chest. I then felt the presence of all three of them around me and haven't looked at them still. How do I explain anything that Becca said and my actions against it?

"Nova, can you talk to us please..."

"..."

"We understand that it is a very hard subject for you, but it won't make it better if you don't talk about it."

"..."

"You don't have to carry this burden on your shoulders anymore we're here for you.."

"..."
