Be Mine

Beth's P.O.V
" And so, of toy divide the number buy 70 it should give us the answer," Mr Biersh said.
Maths is so boring. I literally hate it. It's the worst class ever. When am I ever gonna use maths in my life? I want to be a singer. Not a math thingy thing. I don't really give a damn, I mean who really does.
It's Mason's birthday soon and I have the most perfect present! But to get it I need to find a job.
The bell went interrupting my thoughts. Yes, I have science, with Mason.
I collect my math things and put them in my bag and hurry out if there.
I reach the science room and Mason is talking to Jace. I slam my book down making them jump.
" Got you!" I giggle taking a seat next to them.
" Bitch," Jace mutters.
I giggle again. Mason gives me a side hug and our teacher walks in and Jace walks back over to his table.
He begins to speak and so do I, but to Mason.
" It's your birthday soon," I say.
" Yeah, and?"
" Aw come on, it's a big deal! Your Turing seventeen!"
" Eww, don't say that," he says.
" Mason's turning seventeen, Mason's turning seventeen!" I tease him.
" Stop!" He giggles.
" Morris, Clark, detention!"
What! No, my dad is gonna kill me. Shit, mother fucking shit. I'm gonna die tonight. Mother fucking shit, fuckerty, fuck, fuck!
I could feel butterflies bubble up inside me. I'm going to have an anxiety attack. I haven't have one since I met Mason.
It became harder and harder to breath. My nervousness is taking over me. Breath Beth, breath.
One and two and three and four.
Oh fuck, it's not working. I need to use the bathroom. I can feel myself welling up tears. I tired to stop myself.
Crap, I'm hyperventilating. Stop it Beth. Don't cry, this is dumb. This is dumb. This is so dumb.
" Oh my god, Beth!" Mason whispers.
I look to him.
" Go to the bathroom!" He whisper yelled.
I raised my hand and the teacher nodded at me.
" C-Can I U-Use the bathr-room," I stutter.
" No, you just got a detent-," I cut her off.
" AA!" I say.
" Oh, right," she says, pointing to the door.
All my teachers have a code wit for it. AA stands for Anxiety Attack.

I push open the door to the bathroom and run to the basin. I wash my face down with some water. I look at my puffy red eyes.
I take out my magical concealer and put some over it to cover the redness.
Oh god, what do my classmates think? I bet they think I was some crazy bitch.

One of the stalls open and I freeze. It was Allison, the school bitch. I haven't really talked to her as I need to stay out of her way.
" Hello," she says in a bitchy tone.
" Uh, hi," I choke up.
" Oh wait, your the girl dating Mason! Umm, what's your name? Beth!"
" Uh, yeah."
" Well honey, he was my boyfriend once and I'll make him mine again. You just watch your back," she says pointing a finger at me.
She grabs me by the collar of my shit.
" And don't try and get in my way," she says, letting go, making me stumble, hitting the wall.
She left the room leaving me and my new anxiety attack.

" Beth? Bethany?" Jade said, her voice ringing out in the stalls.
I tried to stay as quiet as possible. I could hear her slamming open all of the doors. She got to me and tried to open it.
" Beth, I know it's you. Your the only one with yellow dock martins."
I sigh and unlock the door.
" Oh my gosh, have you been crying?" She says, holding out her arms.
" Y-Yes," I stutter.
She pulls me into her bear hugs.
" Mason has been looking for you everywhere! He is worried sick about you!"
" I didn't want to come out of here looking like a sob," I cry into her shoulder.
" What happened? I know you got an anxiety attack but Allison was hanging out with us and saying how bad of a girlfriend you are!"
" She said she wants to steal Mason back!"
Jade breaks apart from the hug.
" That bitch, I'm gonna slap her fake ass to Pluto."
" Jade please don't do anything!"
" Sorry. No-one is hurting my best friend!"
And with that she stormed out of the bathroom.
I collected my things and put my hoodie over my face so people won't talk to me.
I might just skip the last lesson. It's okay, it's sport. Or maybe I can just pretend to be sick and go home.
" Beth?" A British voice called out.
" Mason," I sigh in relief.
I run to him and he elopes me in a hug.
" Are you okay?" He asks.
" No. Alison's a bitch!"
" Don't worry Jade has her taken care of!"
I dig my face into his chest. His sent fills my nostrils and I feel a little safer in his arms.
•••
I open the door and take a deep breath.
" H-Hello dad."
" I'm really disappointed. It's this Mason guy. Is he causing this trouble!"
" No, it was me! I got him in trouble!"
" So it was you! Go to your room! I don't want to see you! You know it's gonna be harder for you to get a job now!"
" Dad it's one detention!"
" It should of been your last!"
" Gee, I thought you would be supportive! I had two anxiety attacks today!"
" You told me you were over those! Why didn't you tell me!"
" Because I didn't want to put more on your plate! You don't need to worry about me!"
