Don't know about this one.

Y/ns pov.

I get angry a lot. When I say a lot, I mean a lot. The only person to be able to fully calm me down is my girlfriend, Steph. I don't know what it is, but she just has this way of knowing exactly what I'm feeling in the moment and knowing exactly how to help.

When I get angry, i don't think straight, and many times in the past, that's ended up with me punching walls and people but mostly walls. This means I have quite a few scars on my knuckles.

I never minded having scars, scars tell stories. My stories. And people have always loved it when I tell stories. Apparently, I have this way of telling them that make it sound way more exciting.

My thoughts get interrupted by a knock at my front door.

'Who's that.' I shout to steph who is walking towards it.

'The girls, I told you they were coming over.' She tells me.

I can't remember having that conversation. Must have been thinking about something else at the time. It was probably more important.

'Y/n!' Beth shouted, running in and jumping on me.

'Beffy!' I shout back.

She gets off of me, sits on the sofa next to me, and starts rattling on about her day and how Viv was boring for most of it.

'Oi, I'm not that boring.' Viv gives an offended look from the other side of the room.

'Sorry Viv, you kind of are.' I tell her, smirking. Beth gives me a high five.

'See, y/n agrees.' Beth sticks her tongue out at her girlfriend. Viv rolls her eyes.

'Y/n doesn't count. She only thinks I'm boring because once I told Steph that she was about to backflip off of the roof.'  She states with an unamused look on her face.

'I'm still annoyed about that.' I frown before walking into the kitchen, where my lovely girlfriend is.

'Hey, love, you need anything?' She asks, seeing me walk through the door.

'Nah, just came in here cause Viv's being mean again.' I tell her, rolling my eyes.

'Is this about you nearly backflipping off of a roof again.' She puts her hands on her hips and gives me that look.

I huff and sit on the counter.

'Ello, everyone.' I smile at Leah, Kim, and Lessi.

They all laugh at my antics and say their hellos back.

'Hang on.' I say whith a raised voice realising my two best freinds aren't here.

They all look at me, concerned.

'Where the fuck is Kyra and Katie?' I ask in the most dramatic way humanly possible.

'Hey, language. They couldn't come. Both already had plans.' Kim tells me cautiously.

Well, that's stupid.

'Oh.' I honestly thought they were just running late and thought I'd make these lot laugh just for the sake of it. I didn't think they wouldn't be coming.

Who am I supposed to be annoying with now? The only fun person is Beth, but she just gets scolded by Viv before she can do anything close to fun.

'It's okay, babe, you can talk to us instead.' Steph tells me.

'You lot are boring.' I sulk.

'Hey, that's not nice.' She scolds me. I roll my eyes.

Before anyone can say owt else Beth bursts through the door with Viv following closely behind her.

I would laugh but I'm not really in the mood anymore.

'Was there any need for almost breaking my door?' Steph asks her with the same tone of voice she uses when I've done something stupid.

'No.' She looks down like she's a little kid who's been caught doing something they shouldn't.

'Hey, Stephy, can we watch a movie?' I ask my girlfriend, hoping to save myself from extreme bordem.

'Not right now, y/n/n, we are just taking in here for a bit.' She tells me. How boring can some people get.

I don't really listen to the conversation but I know it's something boring. I start to get fidgety, me knee bouncing up and down. Steph sees this and rests her hand on it, trying to calm me down. It stops my knee shaking but it doesn't stop me fidgeting. I start biting my nails, a bad habit I picked up from a young age.

Steph takes my hands and starts tracing the scars and my knuckles, continuing her conversation with Leah and Kim.

I don't know why, but there is something about her doing this that makes me feel all calm inside, and for the first time in a long time, my brain goes quiet. Where has this been all of my life.

'Hey y/n, you know movies, what do you think?' Leah asks.

'Huh?, I wernt listening.' I tell her, snapping out of my trance.

'We were talking about what the best movie ever is.' Finally, something interesting.

'Well, it depends what you like, I like actuon and stuff so my favourite if pulp fiction but stephy likes romance and sad shit so hers is titanic, I still don't know how you can sit through that bollocks.' I explain.

'What's pulp fiction?' Alessia buts in.

'I'm sorry, what? How do you not know pulp fiction? It's pulp fiction.' I shout.

Steph starts tracing my knuckles again, I think she figured out that it calms me down.

'I've never heard of it.' Alessia tells me.

'You uncultured swine, everyone knows pulp fiction, it's Iconic.' I shake my head.

Did you just call her an uncultured swine?' Leah asks, laughing.

'Yeah, because she is.' I say like its the most obvious thing ever.

'Right, I fell left out now. Where can I find pulp fiction?' Lessi asks.

'I've got it on dvd somewhere, I can lend it to you.' I tell her, swinging my arms around her shoulder and leading her upstairs into my room.

I go over to my shelves of dvds and look for it.

Turns out everyone followed is up and now there is like half the planet in my room, normally, I don't even let steph in here so this is a lot.

'How did I not know this was in your house?' Beth asks.

'What do you mean?' I reply.

'This room, how have I never been in here?'

'Because its my room, why would I let you in here, you act like a toddler half the time and would probably break something. You're only in here because you lot followed me.' I find what I'm looking for and give it to Alessia.

'That's my most prized possession. Please look after it.' I tell her seriously, breaking into a smile at the end.

'Don't scare her y/n/n.' Steph tells me.

Way to be boring.

It's a bit short, doesn't really make sense but it's fine, I only finished it because I would like to announce something.

The intro to my book is now out, I will try to write the first part tonight but no promises. You guys told me to write it so you better read it. I'm not using my brain for no reason.

Mase. :)
