The Preacher's Daughter

Over It.

Demi.

"David, that's sweet...I'm ju---" he pulled me into a kiss. I got lost of words. I finally pulled away. "David..I don't like you. I'm sorry, but we're just better off as friends."

He nodded his head, "I understand..I'll catch you later." he went back inside. I went back to class. I walked in and saw Joe smirking at me. I rolled my eyes and got in my seat.

"Killer party last night, huh?" I ignored him.

"You can try to ignore me, but I saved your ass last night." he put his pen in his mouth, catching my attention. "Wh--what do you mean?"

"You were fixing to get raped, but I saved your ass,then.." he kept smirking at me.

"Welcome class." Mr. Gomez walked in,interrupted my conversation with Joe. We did announcements and attendance. "We have homeroom today, so after this class you guys will go to homeroom. I know it's the middle of the school year, but some of you need reminders."

Class finally ended and homeroom was next. It was my first time in homeroom so I was kind of nervous. My homeroom was in the auditorium. I looked around the room and noticed Maia. I smiled as I was walking over to her.

"Hey Maia!" I sat next to her, but she scooted over. I was confused but I followed. "Maia, what's wrong?"

She ignored me.

"Maia, don't play with me. What is wrong?" I giggled slightly and poked her arm.

"Do not touch me, Lovato!" Maia snatched, "Selena is right! You are a virgin whore! You know I liked David but you still kissed him!"

"Maia, it wasn't what it looked like.."

"Stop with the bullshit, Demi. I saw it. I saw him kiss you and I heard what he told you. I am in LOVE with David and I saw my friend kiss him! You are a backstabbing bitch!" I looked down. Maia gasped when she noticed everyone looked at her and started laughing.

"Go screw yourself,Demi." Maia ran out of the auditorium. I felt awful.

"Nice going, Demi." Selena laughed at me.

I was over these people. I stood up, "Selena, shut the fuck up. Everyone just shut the fuck up! I have had with all of you! I am done with connecticut and all these sour asses. From the first day I got here I have been making fun off and bullied. I am a preacher's daughter, but I'm glad I'm not easily offering to lose my V-card like you sluts! I'm done."

"Miss Lovato, principal's office now." my homeroom teacher pointed to the door. I knew I was going to get it now. I sighed and walked out to the Principal's office. I knew everyone was laughing at me.

"Miss Lovato, why are you here?" I sat down.

"I guess I got into trouble with profanity.." I sighed, this girl wasn't me. I never got in trouble back home. My dad is going to be so mad.

"Why?" he wrote everything down on his notepad.

"Ever since I got here I have been bullied and I'm just over it. Please don't call my father, please." I tried to beg, but I knew it wouldn't work. He shook his head at me, "Lovato, we take bullying very seriously here. If someone was bullying you, come to me. Do not try to take care of it."

I sighed, "My friend did that at my old school and it just made matters worse. She ended up killing herself."

The principal ended up talking to me for a while. I was late for second.

After second was my lunch and I ended up eating by myself. I didn't mind, I was too upset to talk to anybody.

I survived the rest of the day. I got into my last class and sat next to Joe. "So I heard you got in trouble.." Joe smirked at me. I rolled my eyes.

"Sorry," he licked his lips, "The gang and I are leaving tonight, if you change your mind to ride with us."

I turned my head towards him, "I'm good."

School finally ended and I took my time to get home.

I entered my home and Jen and my dad were waiting on me. "Demetria, come sit down." my dad glared at me. I sighed out loud and went to the couch. "We got a call from the principal today." my dad crossed his arms.

"He said you used profanity. Demetria, what has gotten into you?! We did not teach you to act like that."

"Dad, you don't understa--"

"I don't care! He told me they were bullying you, but we taught you to rise above that. Using profanity at them won't work. I'm disappointed in you,Demetria. Has preaching to God not taught you anything?"

I rolled my eyes, "I did! I just, I was tired of being bullied. It all started the first day of school. I am tired of it all. I told you I hate it here, but you don't care." I crossed my arms.

"This is great place, you're just being stubborn. You're grounded, Demetria. Give me your phone."

My mouth dropped, "I'm grounded just for that!?! That's stupid!"

"There's more," Jen raised up a plastic bag with some grassy stuff in it, "I found this in your room when I was cleaning. Why was there weed in your room?"

"That isn't me.."

"Demetria, it was in your room. Don't lie!"

I widen my eyes, "I'm telling the truth! It's not mine! I have no idea where you got that!" Jen looked at my dad with a big disappointment in her eyes. "Give me your phone and go to your room, I'm done talking about this."

"But dad--"

"Do I look like I'm negotiating?" he gave me a stern look. I threw my phone at him and headed upstairs. I slammed and locked my door. No one ever believes me.

I started doing my homework to get my mind of everything. That was not my weed. I haven't seen it in my life.

A few hours later, it was dinner time. "Demetria, come on down, dinner is ready!" Jen knocked on my door. "I'm not hungry."

"Okay." she sighed.

A few minutes, I went out of my room to get me a snack. I walked down the stairs as I heard my parents talking.

"I don't know what to do with her, Jen. I might have to take her to boarding school. I can't let her destroy my reputation. I can't keep moving. I miss when she was my little princess. Now she's trying to get under my skin. I can't take it anymore. Some days I don't even think I love her, she gets me so angry."

I looked down at the floor. I went back to my room. I needed to leave. I was hurt what my dad just said. He has to love me. I can't do this anymore. I shut my door and locked it one more time, thinking of an idea.

"The gang and I are leaving tonight, if you change your mind to ride with us."

I grabbed a bag and started packing some of my clothes. I zipped it up. I looked at my room one last time. "Bye Jen, bye dad." I opened my window and climbed down.

I ran away from my house.
