Remember when we were just happy, carefree, little kids who didn't care about what people thought. Well, I do and I wish I was still a happy, carefree kid. "Look at yourself, you look disgusting and should be able to pull guys Isla", Those words would go through Isla's head almost every moment. "Hey, Iz, you okay," I heard a voice call out to me & it brought me back to reality, sitting in class with all the guys who would sexualize us & wouldn't get in trouble because "Boys will be boys," and the girls you knew were so much prettier than you. "Yeah" I looked up and saw my best friend of 9 years. Ivy was your typical teenage girl who didn't really fit in, but had lots of friends, even if most of them weren't real. "Ivy, Isla stop talking or you're both gonna get a detention," Mrs. Coleman said, which made Iz & Ivy look at each other and burst into laughter. "Alright, office now. BOTH of you." Iz & Ivy walked out to the laughing their asses off until they couldn't breathe anymore.

Once they arrived at the office, they had to mentally prepare themselves so they would get into more trouble. They walked in & sat down. "What did you guys do this time", Miss Watson the secretary asked. "Uh" Ivy said and looked at Isla who had of course, broke into laughter. "Let me guess, this is what happened " Miss. Watson said looking very unamused. "Isla Smith, Ivy Milly, my office now", our principal said. Ivy and Iz walked into his office and sat down. "You guys know that this is you're 5th detention which means you'll both be suspended for the rest of the day in school & tomorrow after school." Is didn't care of course, it meant she would have to deal with people at school. Ivy on the other hand, well, she hates getting in trouble.

Isla and Ivy got walked to the I.S.S room for the last 4 hours of the day. "Again, guys", Mrs. Norris asked. Mrs. Norris was the nicest teacher, she was 22 and really related to Iz & Ivy. When the day was over Iz was on the bus home. She hated the bus because that's where most of the intense bullying happened. "Hey, look the pigs here." "Ew, why is that bitch sitting close to us." Older kids were saying that as I got on. "Come on, you know it's my assigned seat. Plus even if it wasn't, it was the last seat open", I said with tears in my eyes. "Oooo, are you gonna cry. You're such a little fucking baby. Go kill yourself." Those were the words Isla dreaded hearing everyday. By everyday, I mean every day at least one person would say that to her.

Iz finally arrived home, happy see got off the bus. But as soon as she walked into the door, "THIS IS THE THIRD FUCKING TIME YOU'VE GOT SUSPENDED IN 2 MONTHS ISLA LASEY SMITH", her mum yelled, while her dad backed her mum up. "Mum, let me explain please", "No, you're just a kid & what you say doesn't matter." Daniel Islas' dad said. Isla was sick of this, she was expected to act like an adult and be mature, but whenever she did 'you're just a kid'. Of course, just a fucking kid. "This is absolute bullshit, you want me to act like a fucking adult, but when I do, you take me as a little kid"," ISLA, YOU KNOW KNOW YOU CAN'T SWEAR" Her mum & dad said in union. As they said that, her father slapped her across her face. Isla's home life was honestly really shitty. Her mum and dad were always fighting & when they weren't, Isla was getting yelled at or they were at work. "Dad, what the fuck!" Iz's older brother Ace walked in from outside and saw what had happened. Ace and Isla were really close & always knew they could count on each other. Ace was 17 & Isla was 16. Is really looked up to him since she really didn't have a father figure in her life. "SHE SWORE YOU DUMBASS, PLUS I CAN DO WHAT EVER THE FUCK I WANT", Daniel yelled. Ace has enough of this shit, and tackled him. Ace did lots of sports such as football, (American football), wrestling, and boxing. So he knew how to fight. Daniel wasn't even Iz or Ace's real dad, but he was in their life the beginning. Ace & Daniel got into fights a lot, but normally it was resolved quickly. This time though, it went on for a long time, and Isla ran out the door calling 911. "911, what's your emergency", "My dad & brother are in a huge fight, please come quick", Isla said while sobbing. "It's okay, officers are on their way right now", they didn't need her address because this has happened lots of times before.

This is my first ever story on Wattpad, so bare with me. I made just to spread awareness & so teens like me could relate. I just wanna say, this is not based off my life, I have a really good home life & was never abused. This is loosely based off one of my close friends life. A total of 897 words in this chapter.
