Ashely

The morning came and the stress began. Yesterday after school I found out Elizabeth did something even weirder than what she done in the past. Everything that we went through and make up are just gone. All I can think of is how I'm going to be with her, should I even ask or even talk to her. Me and Danielle didn't say a word to our parents about it. She didn't want to talk to Elizabeth and neither did I but I guess every morning she's there. We decided to sit in a different table but once I got there everybody was still in the same table. The table was quite.

It was quite for a moment until...

"So did you give John back his glasses?" I said breaking the awkward silence.

"Yah but he took it away from me all mean." she replied.

"But you were going to give it back right?" I said while Danielle and Rosy stared.

"Yes I was!!!" Elizabeth yelled. I didn't care if she yelled like a five year old who wants her mom to buy her a Barbie doll.

"You sure? Your not lying to me, right?" I said with a straight face.

"Yes I did, I swear!!!" she said raising her voice then stayed quite again.

Me and Rosy have each other for first period so when we went to our class she talked to me about John.

"John mad at me because I gave the glasses to her. It's not my fault I had to leave early." Rosy said.

"I know you did. Do you want me to go and talk to him?" I asked.

"Sure yah tell him I needed to leave early." Rosy said.

I knew the first thing I need to do is talk to him about Rosy leaving then the situation with Elizabeth. Once nutrition came I would always see him near the library and lucky Elizabeth was no where in sight.

"Hey John." I yelled.

"Hey brat, why did Rosy give the creep my glasses!" he said in a angry way.

"Shut up you whiner she had to leave early. It's not her fault!" I yelled back.

After that it was quite but he was still angry and started talking about what happen yesterday with Elizabeth. So I guess he saw her with his glasses on and asked for them back. She didn't want to give him the glasses so he had to take them away. Then in nutrition she followed him to the boys gym and stayed in front of the door waiting. She told teachers she needs to talk to him but John ask the securities to take her back to her class. Hearing it again felt so unreal.

"I'm planning to get restraining order on her" John said.

"Are you serious!?" I replied.

"I can't stand her anymore! I know she's been following me and taking pictures of me! I need her out of my life and stay far away from me!!!!" John yelled seriously.

In all my seven years I've known him I had never seen him like this. I stayed with him still talking about it until the bell rang. I couldn't focus or remember what I did in class because of what is now happening. Of course in 4th period I talked to Danielle about the conversation and we couldn't believe it. For me I never thought I would have a situation like this in such a young age. The whole school day I just said to myself that he's kidding, it's just a threat. Going home I just wanted to forget everything that was happening. With the restraining order now made my choice serious.

-----------------------------Monday Morning--------------------------------------------

Supposedly today in school John and Elizabeth are going to the councilor office with securities and the principal. For the first in the past two days I could wake up with less stress. I shouldn't really since it not my problem however I just can't bring myself to think that. For some reason I feel somewhat in the middle of this but can't figure out why.

In the cafeteria Elizabeth wasn't there so we all believe their in the office. It was just Yuri, Rosy, Danielle, Jose and I in the table. Danielle looked a little freak out because she doesn't want to be called in. Rosy was on her phone like always probably looking up fangirls tweets. Yuri was also on his phone playing some game and Jose was comforting me. I didn't need it but it was sweet. Not even Jose will make me feel more comfortable. If anything it felt like I'm in a rehab place and people are telling me its going to be okay even though it won't. Even if it did, it won't be the same.

Of course I heard from Danielle that Elizabeth actually told her that she going to tell them about the Assaults and blackmails. We thought it was pretty stupid to bring it up especially since she probably made it up. Couple of months ago she made up a lie saying her brother tried killing her and once the police came they let him go. We knew that was a lie because who in their right mind does that. She won't admit it was a lie but of course it was.

I started thinking to myself if I should get one but then I thought that's too weird. I thought of what others would say if she got two restraining order in a day. In a young age it might be right but in a way it isn't. I try to rethink my thoughts but it feels like a blur that I couldn't figure out. However, I had bigger things to worry about. The finals were coming up and I needed to practice my presentation and prepare for my math exam.

Even with hanging out with the gang and do school work. The thought of what's happening is crazy. Not to be mean but Elizabeth isn't like others. Elizabeth can act weird and will get laughed out of how she is. She would chase people, mostly guys. Steal people's stuff then treating them like she the cat and they were the mice. She actually would act like a cat and never can stand up for herself. One thing people either knew or not but believes that she takes pills and is suppose mental. She can go from happy to angry to sad to crazy to happy again in a second. Most importantly she doesn't care how she dress and what others say about it.

Only person that matters to her was John. During this first semester she would always give me a look since I hug and talk to John a lot. She would get near him and try to touch him but he said the only one who can is Ashely which pissed her off. Since mine and Danielle birthday are near each other John gave us a precious necklaces that he put all his heart into. When he gave me mine he was in a suit and gave a little speech of how much he loved and care about me. Elizabeth's birthday was also near our birthday but John didn't care. Little things he does with either us or other girls she would give this devil look and you would know if she's piss off. So it's like a crazy girlfriend being clinging except for the girlfriend part. She actually ruined a friendship between John and a girl he liked.

The more I think about it the more I felt little bit bad for him. That's all I could think about in school. Nothing else came in mind. Not even food because I love food. Yah in lunch we laugh, make couple of jokes and hang out but having two friends who can no long be in the same room. Bet it isn't really easy.

At home Danielle called telling me she doesn't want to Elizabeth now since this was happening. It was too much for Danielle to handle. She didn't want to be in it. Before I talked to her about it I asked who do we believe more. Danielle thought about it if she should stick with the weird crazy friend who's been there or the honest jerk friend who annoyed the heck out of her. One thing was for sure John  would never lie and would never do anything that bad to Elizabeth. Danielle didn't want to be the one to tell her that we don't want to talk anymore. She wanted me too. I was whatever but it was like the same with John I had to watch what I say. Now if anything piss or upsets Elizabeth she'll go straight to the office. Later on Danielle told Rosy what's going on now and she agree.

I was tired of her BS and I also didn't want to deal with the problem. It has nothing to do with us and we have nothing to do with it. I said to myself that I was tired of everything she pulled. This wasn't the girl we use to know in Middle school.

Its like what my 8th grade teacher said "You'll start to know who your friends really are".
