Penelope's POV.

It was about a week I was finally realised from the hospital. After the running after him, he is officially MIA. I just lay in my bed watching the door watching for him to walk through it and kiss me senseless, but dreams never come true. I've cried myself dry, refusing to communicate with anyone knowing I'll brake down. I haven't been sleeping at all. I looked the time and it was 3:45am. At least I won't be late for school.

I walked into my bathroom and look into the mirror. This girl isn't me. Dark bags under her eyes, hollow cheeks, chapped lips, bird nest on her head and purple skin from the bruises. I pulled up my top and looked at the bandage around the place I got shot. I slowly shook my head as tears fell down my face. Why did he have to leave me? I sobbed quietly into my hands and slid down the wall.

I cried myself dry again and slowly got in the shower. I did what I needed to do to make myself not look like shit. I got out and wrapped myself in a towel and drug my feet to the closet. I grabbed my nike tracksuit and put it on. I towel dried my hair and wrapped it in a messy bun with bits of hair falling down. I put my black air forces on with some white ankle socks.

I walked downstairs to the kitchen. My mum was sitting there with her breakfast and coffee.

"Hey sweetie" She greeted me.

"Hey mum" I greeted her back and kissed her drink.

"You hungry?" I shook my head at her question. Just the thought off food make my stomach turn.

"You haven't eaten all week, please don't go down that path" My mum grabbed my hands and looked at my face.

"I won't, I'll grabbed something in school" I gave her a small smile.

"Okay, you ready?" She asked.

"Yeah lets go" I followed my mum out to her car.

The radio came on Say Something came on.

Anywhere I would've followed you. Say something I'm giving up on you.

I quickly turned over the radio station to another one.

I came in like a wrecking ball, I never hit so hard in love. All I wanted was to break your walls.

I groaned again and turned it over again. And One Direction Moments started to play.

I wanna feel you love. I wanna lay beside you, I cannot hide th-

I slammed the off button for the radio and silence filled the car.

"I'm sorry hunny" My mum grabbed my hand and squeezed it.

"It's fine mum" I smiled at her.

"Who are you trying convince? Me or yourself?" I thought about her question and I realised I was trying to convince myself.

She squeezed my hand once more before turning into the school. I kissed her goodbye and walked towards the front doors. I opened them and made my way to my locker avoiding the stares and whispers pointing my way. I kept my head down.

I saw my friends standing at my locker. Maddy was the first to notice me and ran to me hugging me. I bought my thin arms wrapping them around her body.

She let go and Emma and Dylan took turns hugging me. They all gave me looks of pity and I hated it.

"Is he in school?" I asked quietly. They all shook their heads and I sighed.

"He will realised what he is done soon" Dylan said.

"Prom is soon" Emma squealed.

"We will go dress shopping soon" Maddy said looking at me and Emma.
