Crystal

I let the warm water wash over me as I stared at the wall. In one moment my whole world was colorful and I felt free but that was gone in a instant once I woke up the next morning. Now all the bad thought have come back, the unspeakable thoughts.

Now the world is just grey.

I want to feel again.

Happy.

I turned off the shower and stepped out the tub. I stared at my face, I looked tired and my right cheek was still hurting.

This sucks.

I looked down at my phone still no text from James or Diana. Surely they know about the accident by now. random people and even people who talk about me behind my back was sending me DM's on instagram. wishing me well and all that fake shit.

But them, not even a text or call. Did I really loose my friends.

Because if so I have no one.

I felt a tear roll down my cheek. I quickly wiped them away. "No crying."

But that didn't help.

I put my clothes on and fixed up my hair for school. "Okay well this will do." I shrugged as I checked out myself before I left my room.

Zeno was outside waiting for me, "Hey." he smiled.

I looked at him and slightly smiled. Well at least I have him. I leaned over to his side planting a kiss on his lips.

"What was that for?"

"Nothing."

"Can I ask you something?" I asked as he pulled out the drive-way.

"Shoot."

"Umm... Do you by chance have anymore of those gummies. If so... Can I have some?" I shyly asked. He didn't say anything.

"For the pain." I blurted out, "And just to get me through the day, just until my cheek stops hurting."

I hope I don't sound too desperate.

"Uhh, I don't know Crystal. If you got caught you'd be in serious trouble."

"I won't, I-I'll be fine, yesterday I was cool as a cucumber."

"Cool as a cucumber?" he raised a brow.

"Yes." I chuckled.

We pulled up into the schools parking lot. He reached in his glove department and pulled out the same bag from yesterday, "Here. This is enough for the week."

I opened the bag and was about to put one in my mouth but he stopped me, "Are you sure you want to do this?" He questioned.

"Positive." He let go and I plopped one in my mouth.

I felt the biggest smile on my face, "What are we doing sitting around lets go!" I squealed and stuffed the bag in my pocket.

I opened the door and waited for him to get out. I grabbed a hold of his hand. "What happened yesterday? was everyone talking about me?" I asked.
