I hate my life, I hate my life, I hate my life is all i could think when my alarm went off. I tried to ignore it but my godfather's boys Ethan, Alex, James, Steve, Jon, Mark, and Kevin came in.
"come on Mel, get up or you will have to face the consequences," James said in joking but hushed voice. Its probably because the last time he used a normal talking voice around me first thing in the morning, he got a bloody nose and a black eye.
"Let's just flip the mattress and dump water on her instead of wasting time trying to wake her up," Alex suggests in a groggy voice. He is so infuriating sometimes.
" no we have to give her at least 10 seconds before we have any fun with her," Ethan says mocking his father.
"Let's jump on her," Steve, Mark, and Kevin yell simultaneously.
"Melody, please don't make this any harder that it needs to be," Jon pleads with a strained voice. I'm curious on what's wrong with him.
When i didn't move the boys flipped the mattress and sent me rolling into the wall. At that point I tried to act sick so maybe I wouldn't have to deal with cameron or as I like to call him Satan. Of course, the guys didn't get the message and threw me over James's shoulder and he proceeded to carry me outside to then throw me into the lake.
To make this morning that much worse, I was bitten by a snapping turtle and remembered that I can't swim. After inhaling what seemed like 8 gallons of lake water, my wonderful godfather pulled me out of the water, meanwhile his boys were on the ground because they were laughing so hard.
"Simon," *cough cough* " I don't think i can go to school today," i choked out between mouths full of water.
"Don't worry about school Melody, you're staying home whether you want to or not. As for you boys, what the hell is wrong with you! You could've killed Melody," He yelled looking at his boys, as i continued to cough up water on his lap. I really can't breath and the boys are still laughing hysterically.
3 hours later
Laying in bed i get a text from my bestie cassidy.
Cas: Hey heard you almost drowned. R u ok?
Mel: Ya, I just keep coughing up water. Any news about Cam?
Cas: Yeah, Cam and his crew got suspended for the week for something they did in the bathroom. IDK what though.
Mel: Good, then school with be safe for a while lol.
Cas: yeah, lol.
Mel: GTG, having trouble staying awake.
Cas: OK, ttyl goodnight :-).
Mel: G-Night
After putting my phone down and leaning on my headboard, Jon opens the door and pokes his head through the crack.
"You still awake," Jon asked in a curious voice.He is such a sweetheart sometimes. He has deep blue eyes and shaggy blonde hair. No wonder he has had so many girlfriends.
"Yeah, just sitting here thinking about school," I replied in a tired voice. i can't help but think about everything that may happen this week.
"May i have permission to enter your cave," he asks jokingly.
"I guess you can. what do you want."
"I want to apologize to you about this morning and offer you some company," he says quietly while sitting on the edge of the bed. he obviously knows I'm tired.
"Thanks Jon, and I do accept your apology," I whispered laying my head on his shoulder, feeling really sleepy.
"Have you been working on any new paintings lately," he asks while putting his arm around my shoulders and covering us up with a blanket.
"No, there hasn't been much inspiration for painting," I whisper trying to stay awake.
"Well I'm sure-," was all he said before he heard a soft snore followed by quiet breathing. He then adjusted us to a laying down position and fell asleep himself.
What felt like second but what was about five hours, i was being woken up by a concerned cassidy.
"Are you ok? Are you sick? Do you need me to dump water on you," she asked with the speed of a machine gun. I didn't know why she was asking so many questions until I realized where I was and who I was laying on. Jon was still asleep with his arm wrapped around me. I look behind Cassidy to see Steve, Kevin, James, Ethan, Alex, Mark, and Simon looking worried and upset.
"I'm fine. Whats going on? Why does everyone look so upset," I ask freaking out. Did something happen while I was asleep.
"Melody, your head! It's bleeding a lot," Jon said from beside me. Whe did he wake up?
I put my hand to my head and when I pulled my hand away it was covered with blood. I have to get padding on my headboard. I always hit my head in my sleep and the stupid thing is so rough it makes me bleed all the time. I hate the sight of blood and become dizzy and lightheaded. Then, everything goes black.
