I went back to that stream at least once every week. I try going after school instead if during because honestly failing my classes would not make my life any better.

But after the week I've had, I needed the stream now more than ever. The drama club was putting on their production of "Grease" and seeing the fliers for it everywhere just brought back hurt that was just seeming to fade. Or hurt that I've come accustomed to, because I don't think this kind of pain will ever go away.

A couple of weeks ago, Liza tried to get me to audition for the part of Sandy, but realised pretty quickly that I was not fit for the part like she once thought.

It's Friday and once the dismissal bell rang, I slinked quickly out of the front doors to my bike, headphones sitting in my ears. That's when a hand grabbed ahold of my forearm. I was jerked backwards to face Ryan. His grip tightened around my arm and his eyes were flushed with anger. I couldn't help the terror that ran through me as the images from my nightmares rushed through my memory.

"Who the fuck did you tell?" He wasn't yelling, but his tone was harsh and he was just inches from my face, making me shrink back.

"Wh-what are you talking about?" I asked in a nearly audible whisper.

"Who did you tell about what we did at the party that night." His facial expression didn't soften.

"What you did." I corrected.

"Excuse me?" He grew louder.

"N-nothing." I shrank back.

God he was such a dick. And if I wasn't completely terrified of him, I would've said it again.

"That's what I thought. Anyway SOMEHOW Amy found out."

I'm assuming Amy was his preppy cheerleader girlfriend that was usually attached to his hip.

"I didn't say anything." I tried desperately to shake him off, but his grip just got tighter and I was starting to lose feeling. Without a doubt there'd be bruises.

"Well she just broke up with me. And I have no idea why! The only reasonable explanation would be that you went and ran your mouth and Amy heard about it!" He grip loosened just enough for me to slip out and run away from him.

As I jumped on my bike I looked back to see him still standing there in fumes.

"Maybe if you weren't such a giant dick, she wouldn't have left!" I yelled back at him, petaling as fast as I could.

*****************************

After the day I had had, I decided to go straight to the stream. I lost track of time and I figured I better make it home before the sun went completely down.

I let out a heavy sigh before getting up from my boulder and dragging my bike up the hill.

Once I got home, I was bombarded with questions from my father as to where I was, seeing that school got out hours ago.

My head hung low as I mumbled, "Studying with Liza." Them I ran up to my room locking the door behind me.

I sat my bag down on my desk, turning on the computer with the intentions of researched for my history assignment.

As soon as I pulled up the Yahoo home page, something in the news feed catches my eye.

"X-Factor UK 3Rd place winners take Europe by storm on X-Factor Tour."
