What's up babes? Jax's POV ( I just wanted to try it out for his POV bc I wanted to see if I liked doing his, bc I kinda hated doing a Noah pov..)

I woke with a start to the sound of my mother moaning.

Oh shit, here we go again.

I hated my parents. I didn't hate them for giving me my siblings, but I hated them. They abused us and my dad fucked my mom right in front of my face.

(A/N: BTW guys, Jackson is probably gonna cuss a lot in his head so yk, be warned.)

I checked the time. 6:01. That was about average time for me to get up. I got out of bed and grabbed some school clothes. I walked to the bathroom and started getting changed, popping in some earbuds and blasting music so I wouldn't have to hear my parents.

After I got dressed, and brushed my teeth and hair, I walked downstairs, grabbed some bread and threw it into the toaster. I popped one ear bud out, just in case my parents wanted to beat us before school, I'd be ready.

My phone started going off. It was Walker Scobell, (A/N: my dreamm) the neighbor kid who was my age.

Dude, tell your sister to check her phone, I've been texting her all morning!

I smiled to myself. He had such a big crush on her it was funny. After I had finished eating my toast I walked up stairs to find Elle getting ready for school.

"Brat, Walker has been texting you all morning."

"I'll check it later," she said, not focused on what I was saying.

I checked the time. "Shit, we're gonna be late."

Elle smacked my arm. "Language!"

"Like you don't cuss, brat." I rolled my eyes. We did this every morning as a joke.

"Whatever, oldie," I smiled at the old nickname.

Noah walked into the bathroom. "C'mon we're gonna be late."

(A/N: y'all are gonna get so sick of me c: but any way Noah always drives them to school but today he let Matthew drive to let him practice.)

(After they got to school babes.)

I was already half asleep, and it was first period. 

Hey, it's not my fault I have history first period with the worst teacher!! I had Mr. James, who hated making things fun and interesting, but loved to ruin my morning.

I was filling out a worksheet about the Cold War when the classroom phone rang. I didn't notice it until Mr. James said "Mr. Solace, do you hear me? I said they need you up in the office. Take your stuff with you as well."

I ignored the 'oohhhh's as I grabbed my binder and walked up to the office.

I stopped at the window showing the office ladies. "You guys needed me?"

"Yeah just head inside to Mrs. Green's office."

Shit, the principal.

I walked inside to see Elle already inside. I could tell she was already panicking. She had anxiety from our parents, and she hated going to the office, it was a fear of hers.

"Jackson, please, sit," Mrs. Green motioned to the chair next  to Elle, who as I sat down scooted her chair as close to mine as possible. I grabbed her hand, smiling at her reassuringly. (A/N: they're siblings... don't be weird abt them holding hands or sitting close to each other.)

"Okay, let's make this quick, I don't want you guys to miss too much class." Mrs. Green smiled a toothy grin at me. "So basically I had a person tell me things about your...home situation. They said something about abuse? I know it's not my business, but I do need to know because if it is true , I know about it and I don't do anything about it, I could get fired. So can you guys just tell me what's going on?"

I froze, shit. What had Noah said to do if anything like this happened?

"That's not true." Elle said. I knew how much she'd been panicking, and it probably killed her to do that. "Who said that stuff?"

"I'm not allowed to say," Mrs. Green said. "Jackson, would you like to add anything??"

"Nope, that about sums it up. We've never been hit at home."

"Alright then. I believe it is now your second period, so I'll write you a note and you guys can get back to class, okay?" The two of us nodded.


Mrs. Green handed us each a little slip of paper. "There you go, have a nice day!"

The two of us muttered something like 'you too!' and left.

After we got out of earshot from anyone, both Elle and I let out a sigh of relief. 

"Shit, that was close." I said.

"Too close," Elle replied, steadying her breath.

"You good?"

"Fine." She replied a little too fast.

"Okay, well if you need me I'll be in class."

"Alright, bye Jax," she waved to me as she left, probably trying to hurry to her class.

"Bye Elle," I said, but she didn't hear me, she was already halfway down the hall.

But all I could think about is, Who the fuck tried to say that to the principal.

And then I realized, there was only one person other than our family who knew about the situation.

Walker fucking Scobell.


One too many Author's Notes? Sorry! I had so much to say!

BTW who doesn't love a good ol' cliffhanger? <3
