It was Monday.

I hate Mondays, it's when everyone is grumpy and angry. School is also hell on Monday.

Once I was dressed in my uniform I headed downstairs. I packed my lunch and sat on the couch waiting till I had to go and get the bus.

"Have a good day sweetie." Mum said as she lent over and kissed my forehead.

"I'll try." I gave a weak smile before heading down the long pathway till I reached the clearing for my bus.

Once it pulled up, I climbed on sitting near the back, instantly regretting it when the cool girls moved to behind me.

"She looks like she hasn't washed in days."

"Ew look at her frizzy hair."

"She's such an emo, ew."

I then pushed in my ear phones, hoping All Time Low would block out their nonsense.

I felt a tug on the back of my head and I screamed. I saw them laughing at me and they pushed my head forwards, slamming my nose into the back of the seat.

The bus had stopped outside the school and by now there was a group of people watching. Laughing.

I was pulled from my seat and down the aisle of the bus by my hair. I was trying to push them away but it was too late and I was already thrown off the bus, landing in the dirt.

"Fucking baby. Get up and fight." One of them laughed, I couldn't, she then stood on my hand making me scream louder in pain.

"Stand on her back!" I heard some boy call, I started crying as her heels pressed into my back.

"STOP!" I screaming and twisted around so she had fallen off me. I jumped on her, punching her. I was picked up and held back by these two boys who let her throw endless kicks and punches. One of them burnt her cigarette into me. I was stripped of my shirt and then kicked to the ground.

"You're pathetic!" The blonde chuckled and I was left in my bra, on the now bloody and dirty floor.

I reached for now ripped shirt and headed home. I was limping and hissing but I didn't care I just wanted to get home.

-------

I reached the door to find Calum, my mum and Keelan all outside together. Once Keelan noticed me he ran up, I could just make out my mothers confused face.

"SCARRRRLETTTT!" Once Keelan saw me, he screamed and began to pull me to mum.

"MUM SCARLETT GOT HURT!" My mum rushed over but I collapsed into tears, blood and shame.

"Scarlett? Baby what happened?" I just cried and she tried to pick me up. Calum then threw me over his shoulder and carried me inside, Michael and Luke who were cuddling on the couch, got up and asked questions about me. I was laid down as my dad ran in with the first aid kit. I lifted my shirt up so they could assess my burn, which made me whimper.

I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer and it wasn't long before I passed out.

--------

When I had awoken, I was in my bed, Calum was sat with Keelan in the corner playing cars.

I looked down to see I had no shirt on but a bandage on my stomach and my ankle in a plaster.

"What happened?" I questioned and the both looked up at me, Keelan bounced over.

"You collapsed once you had got here, you were badly beaten up I think." Calum said, I nodded and all the memories of the hours before flooded my mind.

"Oh yeah, the girls." I mumbled playing with my hands.

"Why did they do this?" Calum questioned, he touched my hand and I pulled away quickly.

"Because I'm different..." I felt my eyes gloss over, Calum went to touch me again but I flinched.

"I'm always here if you need to ta-" Calum fell back into a fit. I didn't know what to do I couldn't move.

"Keelan! Go get mum, tell her Aaron!" I tried to get up but I couldn't, he's going to kill me, he's gonna kill me.

Calum stayed still and shut his eyes, I was shaking. Calum's eyes shot back open.

"Calum?" I cried.

"Who the fuck is Calum?" No. No. No. No!

"Sorry, I meant Aaron?" I said shakily.

"That's me." He stood up facing me, his face was so close to mine I couldn't help but realise how beautiful Calum-Aaron-really was.

"You're so beautiful." I muttered, Aaron smiled. I grinned and lifted my hand to touch his cheek.

"So are you..." Aaron drifted off. I leaned in and just as I was about to kiss him, he fell to the floor in another fit.

Every thing grew silent and I looked down.

"Calum?" I called, he nodded and groaned, standing up.

"Yeah?" He questioned, I pulled him into a hug and he stood shocked.

"Oh thank god." He hugged me back and that's when Ashton came in. Anger over took his face and he ripped me away from the dark haired boy.

"Don't touch him!" Ashton yelled and pulled Calum down the stairs. I felt cold now Calum's arms had been removed from around me.

Keelan ran up, I sat him on the bed and we played cars together.
