Little anxiety

Chapter 23 - Back to hating you

Shay's POV

I woke up to the light sound of knocking on my door. Wait no, it was Bethany's door I realised after last nights events washed over me.

"Hi, Shay, I umm, dinners ready" Bethany whispered cautiously. She seemed worried, they all seemed worried, so I seem it was time to lock my emotions away and be happy for my friends sake.

"sweet, I'm starving what are we having?" I asked excitedly jumping out of bed. I was dizzy and black splotches dotted my vision, quickly regaining my balance I smiled and walked out the door. As I passed the mirror I noticed I was no longer in my large T-shirt from last night instead I wore an unfamiliar hoodie and my PJ pants, the ones with marijuana leaves all over them. Who changed me? was it one of the girls? Walking down the stairs silence washed over all of us as they saw me.

"Guys if you continue to act all cautious around me I will cut your dicks off ok" I said placing my hands on my hips.

"Hey! I need my dick" Abby complained as she brought over pancakes and Bethany brought over her famous banana smoothie.

"we're sorry it was just very scary, we had no idea what was happening or how to help you" Holly said as she walked over to me giving me a hug.

"and I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made you worry like that" I replied before placing the smile on my face once again.

"let's eat!" Abby yelled.

"Shhh, It's too early for yelling you idiots" Reece, Bethany's brother said as he waltzed into the kitchen looking tired as fuck.

"sorry what did you say!" I yelled laughing as he winced again, such good people we were.

"Hey Shay we have to get to school, in ten minutes we have already chosen your outfit" Holly said as we finished our pancakes. Dropping my fork and knife I ran up stairs, grabbing the outfit and throwing my hair into a messy bun. Quickly putting my face on (putting make up on) I sighed in relief as I put Abby's combat boots on, and I still had a minute to spare.

"I'm ready, lets go!" I shouted as I walked back down the stairs, slower this time.

- AT SCHOOL -

"Class please put your pencils down and make sure your name is on your test" the teacher announced once our time was up. Agh that was way too much effort, but I'm pretty sure I passed.

"Shay, hey Shay, what are you doing tomorrow night?" Some behind me asked.

"Umm, I have a meeting at 5:30 but otherwise I'm free, why?" I asked turning around to see a guy named Ian, leaning forward in his desk.
"Well I have tickets to a concert you will like" he suggested, raising his eyebrow.

"Yeah let me think about it" I said smiling, but on the inside I was like "hell no". Standing up and quickly collecting my books, I walked out of the classroom and towards the girl's lockers.

"so that Ian guy asked me out tomorrow night" I said looking every where but at them.

"Wait, holy shit, like Ian Davis?" Holly asked.

"yeah I think so, should I go?" I said not seeing the big deal, he was just another immature guy.

"Yes, oh my god yass!" Holly screamed "He is a total hottie". Well I guess that's settles it, I'm going out with Ian Davis, What a boring fucking name.

"Dips choosing your outfit" Abby said.

"Umm, no I'm going straight after the meeting and it's a concert so it's no big deal" I said walking away. I really couldn't be bothered to stand in the tuck-shop line right now so I'll eat when I get home.

Calum's POV 

I left early this morning before Shay got up, sneaking out of a window at 4 in the morning was something I never thought I would do. Normally I would just stay at the sluts house. Once I got back home I demanded that Ashton explain everything to me that Holly had old him, about Shay that is. I prefer to keep my innocent mind away from that  kinda thing.

"Shay's father is a drug addict and her mother had anger issues. serious anger issues. When she was around one, she was forced into observation rooms, by physiatrists to observe her behaviour with each parent this when on for years until her father eventually won the court case forcing her mother to stay in Australia. Sense then they have continued to tell her they never loved each other and insult each other on a daily basis. her father has also continued to have various girlfriends monthly and cheat on them, most of those step-monsters as she calls them abuse her physically or mentally" Ashton sad taking a large breath and wiping the small tear collected in the corner of his eye.

"Shit" I mumbled.
