I feel multiple pokes coming from my ribs. I roll over and snuggle into my pillow and wrap my blanket tighter around me. I take a deep breath in and I am filled with a musky sent.
"Go away mum." I groan and wrap my arms around myself suddenly feeling cold.
"Ana Rose Steele, time to get up." I blink trying to focus on my surroundings. Ana Steele? from 50 shades?
"Damit Declan go away." I sit up and notice we're still at the gym.
I thought that was a dream.
"But Mr Grey is waiting for you." Deacon teases. I look down to see a jumper on top of my shivering body. I quickly hand it back to Declan but don't say anything, embarrassed that he gave it to me in the first place.
I get up and grab my bag. Swinging it to hit him in the arm. "Ass." I say as I go to the bathroom to fix up my hair.
"Geek." I hear Declan shout as I enter the ladies bathroom. I can't believe that guy is my neighbour.
I look in the mirror and cringe. My hair is all over the place and the tiny bit of mascara I had on had run down my cheek.
I use my hand to try and flatten out my hair but it keeps bouncing back to its previous place. I turn on the tap and run my fingers under it. I wipe the mascara away from under my eyes.
I go back out to see the gym already has a couple of people working out.
How long was I in the bathroom?
I look near the entrance to see Declan sitting on a couch scrolling through whatever is on his phone.
As if sensing me watching him he lifts his eyes from his phone to me and smiles.
I want over to the exit and head to my motorbike.
"What no goodbye? No kiss?" Declan yells from across the gym parking. I start my bike and flip him off as I swing my leg over onto my seat. Twisting the handle and making it roar to life.

Once I arrive at my house I enter my house. To be greeted with a loud crash.
Not this shit again.
"Mum? You home." I yell out and I hear my voice echo through the walls. "I thought we though this phase of your life." I say, poking my head at every room waiting for her to jump out.
"Look who's back. My little... Little slut." My mum slurs as she stumbles out of the kitchen. "Is that why you were out last night. Finding a manwhore to fuck." She yells.
"I'm going to bed." I sigh. "Wake me up when you sober." I command "This is just a phase." I whisper over and over to my self as I make my way up the stairs.
"This is not a phase! you don't understand me, Hilary. You just like your father." She hisses. Grabbing her 'Jake Daniels' bottle and takes another swing. "I hate you, piece of shit." She screams throwing the bottle at the wall.
P
Like I haven't heard that before.I roll my eyes and crawl into bed. The day just began and I already want it to end.
I take a deep sigh. I'll just stay at Jade's house. My only friend. The only one that knows what I've been through
But shit she's at school. Son of a bitch. I should be at school. I grab a duffle bag and stuff to stay overnight.
I open my window and climb out using the pipes to guide me to the side of my house. As I pass my front yard I can hear my mum yelling at herself.
