Bumpy | Dakota Brooks

Chapter 7

Lex's pov

I wake up and turn off my alarm clock and do my morning routine. I get skinny jeans, a white long sleeve shirt, and my brown uggs.

I put my hair in a ponytail and don't put any makeup on.

I grab my backpack once again and walk to school.

I get there with 2 minutes before the bell so I rush to my locker. I get out my textbook and speed walk to my class.

Class starts and the whole time I can hear whispering in back of me. Dakota is probably making up lies about me.

I shrug it off and soon enough it's already 7th period. Times flies fast.

There's 5 minutes before the bell rings to go to lunch. I wait and wait and wait. It finally rings and I go straight to my locker.

"Oops." Someone says bumping into me and dropping all my stuff.

"Nice." I say while bending down to pick them up.

I look up and see Dakota and three other guys giving him that fist pump guys do.

I pick up all my stuff and go to my locker and put them away and go the my lunch table with the girls.

I pass by Dakota holding hands with a blonde on my way.

Wasn't he making out with a brunette yesterday? I guess he is a player.

I get to the table and tell Tae and Haley what just happened.

"That little prick."Haley says.

"Do you need me to beat him up where is he?!?" Tae says.

"No it's fine."

"He's gonna make a big deal out of it later."

"Later?" Haley says.

"Yeah my parents are going away for a week and are making me stay at his house by today."

"Wow I feel bad for you lex."

The bell rings and I say bye to them and leave. My mom picks me up once again and tells me to go get my stuff because they are leaving in a hour.

I HAVENT EVEN PACKED YET OH FUCK.

I run up to my room right when we get home and get all my stuff packed.

"Yes I'm done thank goodness!"

"Lex it's time to go!" My mom yells from the living room.

"Be right there!"

We go downstairs and they walk my to Dakotas house which is next door. We say our goodbyes.

I walk inside and it looks really nice in here.

I meet his parents and the mom's name is Christina and the dad's name is Jake. Then I met two other boys. One of them is named Avery, the other Gavin. The parents offer me something to eat.

"No thanks I'm good for now." I say politely.

"Okay well tell us if you need anything sweetie! And your room is upstairs to the right and two rooms down."

"Okay thank you!" I say.

I walk upstairs and find the room and start to unpack. It's gonna be a long week.

I sit on my bed and take some selfies and post some on instagram. I get bored so I decide to go for a run at the park.

I put on my black Adidas running shorts with a Nike baby blue sports bra and a baby blue shirt on top. I put my hair is a ponytail again and leave my room. As I'm walking I look downstairs and suddenly bump into someone.

"Watch where you're going slut."

"Don't tell me what to do dipshit."

"Hey don't call me that, whore!"

"Fucktard!"

"Asswipe!"

"Dickhead!"

"Dickface!"

"You know what? I don't have time to waste on such an idiot like you." I say walking past him.

"That's right bitch, LEAVE." He says.

I stop and walk back up to him. I slap him across the face and he holds his cheek.

I walk to the door and leave. I start to jog over to the park.

I make 5 laps around the whole park and take a rest at one of the benches.

I start thinking about all the things Dakota said to me. No, I can't let it get to me. I'm strong, just hold it in lex.

"Hey miss are you okay?" A boy says coming up to me.

"Yeah I'm fine, just some things going on in my life."

"Haven't I seen you before?" He says.

I look at the boy and study all his features. He has brunette hair just covering his forehead and brown eyes and pale skin.

"Bryce?"

"Lex?"

"AYEEEEEE!" He says

"AYEEEEEE!" I say back giggling.

"Man I haven't seen you since the party brenda had, what's been going on?"

I tell him everything since the very beginning we met.

I start to feel my eyes swell up but try to hold it in.

"You poor little thing come here."

We hug and I just let it all out. I start crying and crying. It's a good thing I didn't wear any makeup today.

We break apart after a few minutes and I see his shirt with tear stains on it.

"Sorry about your shirt Bryce."

"It's okay, you needed to let it all out."

"Yeah."

"Here's my number,call or text me anytime you need someone. I'm here to help." He said with a smile handing me a piece of paper with his phone number on it.

"Thanks Bryce I'll see you soon, I gotta go." I say.

"Bye lex take care!" He says.

"Bye Bryce!" I say back as I walk away.

I really needed that. I feel like I can tell him everything even though we just met. Well sorta. I'm so glad he's not like Dakota. He actually cares about me.

I reach Dakotas house and walk inside closing the door behind me.

I look around and see that his parents aren't here. I walk to the stairs and see two people making out on the couch.

Dakota and that same blonde.

I pretend to cough loudly just to mess with them. They turn around and look at me.

"Can you keep it down!" Dakota says.

"Excuse me but if I need to cough, I'm gonna cough I don't care about what you think little miss perfect!" I say walking up the stairs into my room.

I change into gray sweatpants and a black v neck shirt. I wash my face and brush my teeth. I stop when I'm done and look at myself in the mirror. I think about all the things Dakota said to me.

I look around my room and find my backpack. I go through my backpack and find what I was looking for.

I walk back into my bathroom and sit at the corner. I start crying and put the blade through my wrist for each time I've been called something mean.

When I'm done I clean it up and hide the blade in the bathroom. I walk into my room and decide to go to sleep for night.
