Summers POV
Monday
"Thanks for driving me marshal," I sigh getting out of the car.
"Your welcome sweetheart," he says with a small smirk to his lips
He knows I don't like him calling me sweetheart.
"I missed it when you called me just summer." I grumble walking away
He chuckles a bit before driving off, I open the door into the school and walk in only for me to get attacked by Darrel making me scream.
"DARREL WHAT THE HELL?!" I yell trying to get out of his firm grasp.
" I'm back, and I know for a fact that the beast won't be getting his beauty any time soon so you better get comfortable babe," he taunts
"Yeah but then your forgetting that there's always lumiere," I here a voice say before they punch Darrel square in the jaw.
I turn my head a bit while hyperventilating to see Brendan standing there, Felicia by his side. Felicia kisses Brendan's cheek before hugging me.
" Claudia told us what happened." She whispers to me
I get out of her grasp and pull her away from me. Claudia told them? Is that how Darrel knew?! Are Cameron and Claudia telling everyone what happened. I can't believe this. I liked it so much better when I had no friends. I feel hurt and betrayed.
"Summer are you ok?" Brendan asks he steps closer to me and I jump away from him
"Woah! Get away from me play boy." I snap
"W-what?" He asks in hurt
Why did I say that? I've only ever said that to him once before. When he asked me out in year 8... I'm losing it.
"Excuse me what did you just call Brendan?" Felica says in a shrill tone
"You know what you don't need to worry about it.. Malibu Barbie." I say giving her a once over before walking away.
What? Why am I saying these things?! I've only ever called Felica Malibu barbie when she hung out with one of the girls who bullied me. I run towards my locker and take out my books and run into the auditorium. I run down to my old seat and start documenting things that I've said in the past before I hear a cough.
I look up to see Claudia and Zach. Claudia looking a bit unimpressed and Zach looking all up disappointed. Hurt, betrayed, lonely.
" you called Brendan a playboy? And Felica malibu barbie?! Really summer? I know your upset about the whole fighting with Cameron and all but you don't need to go picking on other people for it!" Claudia screams
Now everyone in the auditorium knows. Thank you SO MUCH Claudia!
"scream it to the world why don't you Claudia!! I didn't want anyone to know I fought with Cameron! I didn't want to become centre of attention! BUT LOOK AT ME NOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH CLAUDIA!" I scream
She looks taken aback at that and I just let the pain of every situation flow through my head. I've lost them all now. Haven't i? Lost all my friends. Before we can fight anymore miss marton steps onto stage, a hurt Claudia and utterly shocked Zach walk back to there seats before miss marton begins to talk.
" ok so the performance is a couple weeks away and today I would like to go over the final performance again. So summer, your singing in the centre while everyone is behind you. Ok?" Miss marton quickly states
I nod my head and shyly walk to the centre of the stage and grab a microphone from miss marton, the lights in the auditorium dim down and the spotlight starts on me. The song begins to play and I can feel my nerves rising.
Happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place.
But the image that comes to mind is anything but happy. It starts off with cameron begin happy with me at the dance but then it changes to the images of my fight him. Flashes of his yelling. Then more flashes of how Brendan and Felicia and Claudia looked when I yelled at all of them.
Betrayed. Lonely. Hurt. Outcast. Cruel. Unwanted. Unneeded.
My eyes flicker between the people on the stairs, Cameron on the first step looking to me with eyes filled with guilt. Claudia's with disbelief. Zach's with confusion. And Brendan and Felicia's both with hurt.
I've lost them all.
As planned everyone runs up to the stage at the chorus and at that time my voice cracks making people behind me (more specifically Darrel, Seth, Jane and Eliza.{perfect for the roles of sapphire and Valentine if you ask me})
Happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place, Happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place , Happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place, Happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place, happy place.
I have no happy place. I stop singing completely and begin to hyperventilate. I look around the semi circle that surrounds me and look to all my old friends. The bad images flashing back as if they were seconds ago and the cackles of Darrel and his goon squad becoming more evident.
My hands begin to tremble. They've all heard me sing. They're laughing. All of them. Cameron doesn't care. He's doing nothing about it. My hands start to tremble so much that I drop the microphone making more people laugh at me.
I hyperventilate more and mid way through the song I start bolting to the stage door but I don't get that far seeing as I get trapped by the 4 hyenas. They suddenly start to become nightmarishly tall while I shrink to the size of a pea.
"Your not getting away that easily princess. Your staying with me." Darrel laughs grabbing onto my waist
" NO!" I scream pulling his hand away
I push past everyone and run out of the auditorium. I run further down the halls when I start to hear the loud thud of someone's shoes against the tile floor.
" SUMMER!" The male voice calls out
I refuse to stop as tears start spilling out of my eyes. The laughter, taunts and yelling stays stuck in my mind as I shove the front doors open. A hand grabs my own and I scream pulling it away. I turn around to see a blurred male figure, I begin to back away when he screams:
" SUMMER WATCH OUT!"
He leaps at me but I jump back. So far back that I fall down the stairs. I tumble down them hurting anything and everything and when I eventually stop I feel weak. I look down to my body to see a lot of it scraped up as well as a major headache.
More tears flow down my face as the male figure comes back into view making me scream again. It's Darrel I know it. He grabs my wrist and I scream once more because of the pain.
"Summer listen to me-"
" NO GET OFF ME YOU JERK!" I screech
" summer calm down-"
" I HATE YOU GET AWAY FROM ME!"
"Summer! I-"
" DARREL GETAWAY FROM ME!" I cry
" SUMMER IM NOT DARREL!" The voice yells
That shuts me up. I cry more and more as my vision fades a bit. That yell was all to familiar. The figure looks at the back of my head and I hear a small gasp before he comes back into view.
"Listen to me summer. You have to stay awake for me, no matter how tired you are or how appalled you are you need to keep your eyes open. focus on me. Eyes on me." The voice calms
I feel my eyes get heavy as my head ache get worse and worse. Thumbs brush my eyes and dust away the tears.
"I can't do it." I whisper as my eyes begin to droop.
"No summer keep them open, summer please. Your hurt. You need to keep your eyes open." The voice directs me
I shake my head before my blurry vision disappears. Just before I succumb to the darkness I do get a glimpse of the not Darrel.
"Cameron...help.." I whisper as I pass out.
