~Kat's POV~
The day after Chandler got back, we decided to go to the arcade. We met up with Steven and Norman. We played Super Smash Bros and talked. Then switched from game to game. Steven and Norman had left and it was just me and Chandler. We started to walk out the door when Chandler stopped me. He won me a stuffed teddy bear bigger than me and it had a rose. I don't know where he got it and where it came from but I took it and smiled. We hugged and walked out the door. We walked to his friends house and played League of Legends. He really can't play good. Just like Gray said. We all played for a while and then I had to go. I told him I'd see him at school the next day and we kissed and I walked home. The next day I woke up. Got my siblings and myself ready as usual. Then I dropped them off. I looked around for Chandler. That's where we usually meet up. I just shrugged and walked by myself. I got to school and saw Chandler already at his locker. I just went straight to class. I felt like he was ignoring me. I slept through most classes. Then Chorus came and its Friday so that's not good. They were picking random people for free sing and they had the drama class coming in to pick someone for a part in the play and they'd be listening to everyone sing individually. It went by pretty quick until I had to sing. I walked up and saw that Chandler was in drama class so he'd hear me for the second time. I started thinking of a song and then it hit me.
I'm so tired of being here. Suppressed by all my childish fears. And if you have to leave. I wish that you would just leave. Cause your presence still lingers here. And it won't leave me alone. These wounds won't seem to heal. This pain is just too real there's just to much that time cannot erase.
I got lost in the music and didn't even realize I wasn't in my bedroom anymore. I got done singing and everything went back to reality. I looked around at all the faces staring at me. I couldn't tell if they liked it or not so I quietly went back to my seat. At the end of class I heard the Chorus and Drama teacher talking. I heard them say something about me. I just went on with my business. I walked home by myself just like I did going to school this morning. I felt like he didn't want to talk to me anymore. I went straight to my room. And slammed the door which was pretty much telling my family to stay out. I heard someone knock on the door and I was crying so I just yelled at them. "GO AWAY LEAVE ME ALONE JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WANTS TO DO!!!" I heard footsteps on the stairs so I knew they walked away. I got my phone, and my headphones. I turned the volume all the way up and turned on music and just layed there and shut everyone out.
