Ring Ring Ring

I just love Mondays.

Note the sarcasm.

I look to the side of my bed towards my nightstand and glance at the clock. 6:55 Five more minutes. I lay back down and stare up at my ceiling.

This is going to be the first day of school. Well for me.

I left West Coast High when I was a sophomore and I'm finally coming back after only two years. I moved to New York with my Aunt for those two years. My parents weren't exactly on the right track with each other. You see, my dad, he abuses my mother. Or well he used to abuse her.

During those two years I was with my aunt, my mother passed away from a car accident. That was the worst day of my life. But I still loved her. I loved her very very much. She was like a role model to me. I admired how strong she was. She never showed people her weaknesses. And yes, yes I do miss her. I actually quite frankly miss her a bunch.

And that's why I'm moving back to Miami. My Aunt couldn't watch over me anymore due to her working arrangements and she thought it would be a good idea if I stayed back with my dad to keep him company.

Before you assume anything, she doesn't know about the abuse. Me and my mother swore not to tell any family. For it would just cause a lot of drama that we'd have to deal with. My dad, he always drinks. He's on drugs. He's basically a screw up at the moment.

I know people at school are going to think I left because of the incident that happened two years ago. But it's not obviously.

Flashbacks scanned through my head.

Flashback
"I'd like to bring my wonderful amazing girlfriend up to the stage with me, Ariana."

All faces turned to me as I began to get up. I have absolutely no clue what's going on.

We're at a school assembly and he just ran up there. But no one stopped him so I guess this was planned.

I walk up the steps to the stage and next to him.

"Alex, what are you doing." He faced me and grabbed my hands. He pulled me towards the center of the stage.  "I need to tell you something."

He turned me to face the crowd and ran towards the back of the stage. What the hell.

I look back at the audience and soon felt a cold liquid all over my body. I look down at the ground and see ice and water scattered all over the place. My hair is drenched and my clothes are soaked. I look up at the crowd and their all laughing and some taking pictures and videos.

What the fuck is this shit.

I turn back to Alex throwing darts at his eyes hinting to him to explain what the hell just happened. But as I turn around his arms were around another girls waist. They're sucking the life out of each other for Christ sakes. I could feel my heart break. It was our anniversary. This was im our one year anniversary. He just ruined it all. I feel like I've just been cut into a billion pieces and stomped on all over the ground. I felt tears brimming in my eyes but there was no way in hell I was gonna let them see that.

They finally stop and they both walk to me hands locked together. I clenched my fist together. "What the fuck Alex?!" I screamed into his face. I was beyond pissed.

Just as he was about to speak my bestfriend, scratch that, EX bestfriend, cut him off. "Listen Ariana, he doesn't even like you. And he sure as hell wouldn't even want to." Tiffany said as she clung onto his arm like a lost child.

I turned to Alex. "What the hell is she talking about?!"

He stepped closer to me and i stepped back, not wanting to be anywhere near him. "You didn't think any of this was real right?" What? What is he talking about. When i didn't answer he began again. "Ariana, none I this was real." He said as he point his finger between me and him. "This was all just a dare. You couldn't possibly think I meant anything." He scoffed and backed up a bit.

I looked him dead in the eyes. "So you're telling me that all those 'I love Yous' and all those things you did for me meant absolutely nothing!?" He just shrugged and nodded.

I'm pissed. I swear to god I could slap the hell out of him.

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" I screamed in his face. "Was this all some kinda joke to you?!"

"Did all of this really mean absolutely nothing?!"

He smirked that devilish smirk that I soon began to hate.

"Oh kitten, you couldn't possibly think that I'd fall for a girl like you."

And with that he walked away. Leaving me there alone. I was on the verge of tears. My boyfriend just claimed that this whole year was a just a stupid joke. And my EX bestfriend was in on all of this. The girl I told everythig too and the girl who I trusted. She just betrayed me. They Both did.

And with that I ran. I ran passing ambulance and police cars. But then I stopped. I looked at the incident that was happening and it seemed like there was a car accident. One of the cars were tipped over on fire while the other one was smashed in the front and the roof of the car. Not thinking much of it I ran home.

I opened the door and slid down. Tears daring to fall out. But I wasn't. I don't cry. I have to be strong. I don't need them. I have Tasha and Jay. They actually care. I stood up and began walking to my room. When I heard a crash from the kitchen. I looked into the room and saw glass shattered everywhere and my dad running around Looking for something. He grabbed my keys and rushed out of the room. My dad soon came to me, realizing that I looked like almost crying. He rushed to me and Looked  at me with pitiful eyes.

"Oh darling," But as he came closer I noticed his eyes were glossy. And his breath smelt like alcohol and j knew he was drunk. "You know don't you baby" I know? I Know what?

"Dad what are you talking about?" He looked at me shocked and It Looked  like he was about to cry. Then he got angry.

"We have to get to the hospital Ariana." He said as he rushed pass me. Shocked and confused I rushed after him.  "DAD WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! WHERES MY MOM?!" And what he said and did next shocked the hell out of me and changed my life forever.

"SHE WAS IN A FUCKING CAR ACCIDENT!" He yelled so loud im sure the whole neighborhood could hear him. But I didn't care. I was scared. And confused. But then it hit me. I asked her to come pick me up and since she never came I ran.

"Dad, dad I-"

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FUCKING FAULT!" He screamed and slapped me across the face. Then he walked out the door.

I could feel the heat On my cheek and my eyes clenched shut. I ran up the stairs and slammed my door shut. Not knowing what to do, I just screamed. I screamed and screamed and screamed. Today was the worst day I could of ever imagined. But no tears. My mother never let her weaknesses show and that's what I'm gonna do.

End of flashback

But enough about this.

It's time to get ready to go to hell.
