Jill's POV

- couple weeks later -

It's been been a couple of weeks. Couple of weeks too long. We moved out of my house. I live with the Grier's now. I live up in their guest room actually.

My dad moved to Cali 2 weeks ago to start a 'new life' with my mom. I guess I'm happy for them.

What I've heard, Nash and Rachel are good. We shipped Nash's stuff and he moved in with Rachel. I wanna say they are actually happy. Haven't heard of Cameron though. Wonder how he is doing.

My dad approves of Hayes.

It's not like we're dating. I mean we kiss, hug, and say 'I love you's' every now in then, but we haven't really made it official yet. It kind of stresses me out just to think of the subject, but I don't want to just push it aside. I wanna confront him, but I don't know how. I've tried to before and I just couldn't get the words out of my mouth. It was like I was frozen. It's making me real uneasy and I don't know what to do about it.

I wanna confront him today and I might do so. It depends.

So, this was the incident a couple of weeks ago..

Shawn ended up throwing the first punch. I was shocked. I wouldn't ever think Shawn would be that kind of person actually. His words twisted my mind and put me on a different level. I was speechless.

Hayes was shocked that Shawn even threw a punch. I would be shocked too. But of course Hayes fought back. He wasn't just gonna stand there and get hit in the jaw.

Shawn could fight. But Hayes was winning by the looks of it. I tried to break them apart before it even got too far. I step in the way and that's when Shawn threw a punch straight at my cheek.

Shawn kept on apologizing, but I couldn't find myself to forgive him easily. Hayes was pissed off. Hayes wanted nothing more than to beat the shit out of him. But my cheek her so bad, I just told Shawn to leave and he did. Weeks later, haven't talked or heard from him.

Like, I wanna be friends with him. I really do. It's just you can't be friends with the person that loves you. That's just wrong. Then the person falling in love will get hurt and that's not fun.

Good thing I'm home schooled now. It was really hard trying to cover up the massive bruise on my cheek. The more make up I put on it, the more it showed and the more it hurt from dabbing the make up on it. Elizabeth and Chad were suspicious. But I simply told them I ran into a door and they believed because of my clumsiness. And Hayes? He kept on apologizing over and over again, thinking it was his fault. But it wasn't.

The bruise is gone now. Thank god. It's a new start of the day and I woke up extra early just to finish my home schooling for today. I love doing this. I haven't heard from Rebecca and Samantha at all. That just makes my life easier. It makes my life easier because I'm not getting beat down every second by them.

I hop out of the shower and throw on sweatpants and a sweatshirt in my closet. I leave my hair wet, but I throw it in a wet bun.

I grab my phone and go through my Twitter timeline. I'm starting to get more famous due to Hayes posting pictures of me and him together. People are starting to think we're dating. That's what's irritating me. We're not. I'm also getting a lot of hate for no reason. Hayes hadn't done anything about it, of course.

I then start cleaning my 'room' and get things a little more settled in.

When I'm done, I put my phone in my sweatpants pocket and check the time.
