Dear Diary,

So things didnt start out very great yesterday. I went to school and the boys were ignoring me.

Turns out, Kelsey and Matthew fed them a bunch of lies.

At lunch, I talked to Ashton and I told him the truth. Im not sure if he believed me, but he saw the glass scars on my neck and back.

I ran out of the school but when I got home, my parents were gone again.

I literally have no one in my life anymore, and im pretty sure, theres no point in being on this earth anymore.

{Claires POV- Past}

I close my diary, and watch as a tear falls onto the brown, leather cover.

I dont want to go to school today, but I dont want to risk my parents coming home and hurting me for not being in school.

I decide I might as well just go and ignore everyone.

I grab my bag and walk the few blocks to school. A few kids are gathered around in a circle. I was very curious as to what was going on.

I shove through some people, and my heart stops at what I see.

Michael Clifford with a black eye and blood running from his lip.

He looked around at everyone and stood up quickly. He looked over at me, and just sighed before walking away.

"What happened?" Someone asks.

"I think he got beat up." Another answers.

"By who?" I ask, and everyone looks over at me.

"I think by Matthew." Julie, a girl in my grade replies. I just nod, and walk up to math class.

I enter the room and see we have a substitute. She had short gray hair, and looked short tempered.

Lovely.

"Name?" She grouchily asks me.

"Um, Claire Avery." She nods and motions me off rudely.

I sit in my usual seat, and wait a few minutes for one of the boys to walk in.

Matthew, walks in, and he has a blood stained nose. Of course he had to be the one to beat Michael up. What a jerk.

"Name?" The teacher doesnt even acknowledge his blood stained face.

"Matthew Johnson." He replies, and sits in a seat towards the back.

Then Luke and Ashton walk in. This time, they sit next to me. My heart begins to race and my mind begins to wander.

"Hey." Luke says, smiling at me.

"H-hey." I reply, biting my lip. I was trying to act casual but i'm sure they could tell I was nervous. "Not to sound rude, but can I ask why your sitting next to me?"

"Why not?" Ashton asks, and I let out a low chuckle.

"Because yesterday you hated me." I reply and they both frown.

"We didnt hate you, we stupidly believed Matthew... We know everything now." I nod at Ashtons words, and look up when I hear Calums voice.

"Hi, Claire. Hey Ash, Luke." He sits in the other side of me and smiles.

"Hi Calum."

We all sit in silence, and suddenly Michael walks in. I watch as he hesitantly looks over to Matthew, then back over to us.

He sits down, and im even more anxious to find out what happened.

"Today is a free period." The teacher says, and everyone starts talking to their friends.

"Michael, did Matthew do this to you?" I ask, and he shakes his head.

"No..." He looks down at his lap and I sigh.

"Then who did?" Luke asks, and Michael laughs.

"No one."

"Michael!" I say a bit louder.

"Fine..." We all sit and wait for his answer, "it was Matthews dad."

{Emmas POV- Present}

"Emma?" Aidan calls just as I finish an entry. He startles me enough to drop the book.

"Oh, hey." I say as he walks over to me and sits down.

"Um, I have to tell you something." He seems nervous.

"Okay..."

"Dad wont be home tonight." I jump up from where im sitting.

"What?! Hes been gone for six months! Why wont he be home?" Then he stars to cry. Aidan never cries....

"They got in a car crash."
