Best Friends

Chapter 3

¤Seven years later¤

☆Jacky's P.O.V ☆

"I couldn't finish my homework because in the middle of typing the last paragraph, my computer crashed and when I tried to log back on to email you, it shut down again, along with the WIFI." I told my teacher as she nodded her head and said I have an extra week to finish the essay.

I walked back to my seat where I high fived my best friend Brenda. "Nice! Two teachers in one day!" She whispered as I smiled and sat down next to her.

"I know, I'm so good at this. But you know the reason why I needed extra time on these." I told her as she nodded.

"Yeah. I'm sorry for your grandpa though. I hope he'll get better." She told me as I smiled weakly, and continued writing down notes.

My grandfather is battling Cancer. The doctors said that he only had four months left to live. One year later, he still lives. Barely. Now the Cancer has spread throughout his whole body. The doctors say that he will pass any day now, and my father is really stressed right now.

Then, the bell rang, that ment it was time for lunch.

I picked up my over the shoulder backpack, and stuffed my phone in my pocket, and left the classroom.

As I was walking to my table where I sit at with my 'friends' and best friend, I heard laughing. Not normal laughing, snickering.

Curious me, I turned to see some girls sitting at a huge stone seated table looking at me and laughing.

This made me walk faster to the table. Once I reached it, I sat down next to Brenda, and across from Karla, and Liah.

Okay, so you know how I said, 'friends', well, let me explain:

Once upon a time, Karla did something to me, and I got mad and I did something to her back, and she got mad, and sad and everyone was on her side, and she said that she didn't want to be near me, so me and her are ignoring eachother :)

Girls+little accidents=drama

Drama + other things that are going on =more pain

More pain+pain=

You get the idea. -_-

After lunch on my way to last period, Karla stopped me,"Hey, I know you don't like me, but just because you got into a fight with me, doesn't mean you have to make your other friends suffer. Just stop acting like the victim, you're the one who broke my phone. Yeah, I hit you, but it was on accident, what you did was on purpose. Just stop acting sad and depressed." She told me as I tried to hold back tears, and ran off to 8th period.

After the bell rang, I was the first to leave the classroom, and I ran out the gates.

I pulled out my phone, and called my mom to pick me up.

"H-hey mom. I'm ready." I tried to say into the phone as my voice started to crack.

"Okay. I'm almost there. Are you okay?" She asked worried filled her voice.

"Yeah I'm okay." I assured her as we said our good-byes, and hung up.

As I was waiting, I put on Angel with a Shotgun, nightcore.

I'm an angel with a shotgun, fight until the war's won, I don't care if Heaven won't take me back, I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe, don't you know you're everything I have? And I, wanna live not just survive tonight.

I then looked up and saw my mom park in front of me.

I got up, picked up my backpack and got inside the car, and she then drove off.

"So, what did you learn in school today?" My mom asked.

"Well, obviously not enough. I still have to go back tomorrow." I told her as she rolled her eyes, but kept driving.

"Well, now you don't have to." She told me as I glanced over to her.

"What do you mean?" I asked narrowing my eyes.

"You're not going to school tomorrow." She answered.

"W-what? Why?" I asked shocked. "The one time I actually want to go to school, I can't." I said.

"Well, your father needs company, his father is barely breathing. The doctors say that he might pass any hour now." She explained to me as my eyes widened.

"Oh, okay." I replied slowly nodding.

We then pulled up in our drive way.

"Well, go ahead and finish your homework, and make a small snack, I'm going to go pick up your dad from work. His truck is getting repaired, he just texted me right now." She told me as I got our of the car with my backpack on my shoulder.

"Okay. Bye mom, love you." I yelled as she waved and drove off.

I walked up to my door, unlocked it, and walked in to be greeted my my dog.

"Haha, hey Maxwell!" I yelled as he jumped up.

"C'mon, let's go get something to eat." I told him as I went to my room, set down my backpack on my bed, then went into the kitchen to get turkey for Maxwell, and a water bottle.

"Here ya go," I said as I gave him several slices.

I sighed and went back to my room after locking the door.

I flopped on my bed, and just laid there.

I then heard a buzz and looked over to my right to see my phone flashing.

From: Brenda

hey! I didn't see you after school today what happened?

From: Jacky

I had to get picked up early. My mom was early to pick me up.

From: Brenda

Oh. You okay?

I stared down at the text.

From: Jacky

From: Brenda

No your not. I'm your best friend, I know when your not okay.

From: Jacky

*you're* ×2

It's okay, I'm fine. I'm going to take a nap. Bye. :)

From: Brenda

Bye. :/

I closed my eyes and tossed my phone aside.

"Little do you know, how I'm breaking, while you fall asleep." I mumbled, as I slowly drifted off to sleep.
