Fallen Too Far

Chapter 3

Charlotte's POV :

As soon as I got home I ran up the stairs to my room and dove onto my bed. That was a much longer walk then I thought it would be.

AND what did Harry mean we were neighbors? We were not! Well, I don't actually no but.. We are not!

"Charlotte?" I froze when I heard my dad coming up the stairs. CRAP! I'm technically skipping right now.

As I heard my door open, I flew off my bed, in hopes of hiding on the other side.. But I definitely failed at that.

"Honey, why are you home? It's only 1 o'clock" He said, peeking over. I sighed before getting up and sitting on my bed.

"Daddy I hate it here." I told him the cold honest truth. But he, just like my mother didn't buy it.

"Now darling, you know we have to do it no matter what. This is home." He told me, trying to stroke my hair but I flinched.

"Home? This is not home, dad. It is a nice house, but it is not a nice home." Wow, I really was worked up about this.

He replied with not much words, and then eventually left me alone. I flopped onto my back, looking at the ceiling.

Thank god tomorrow if Friday.

"Wake up, princess" My eyes fluttered open to my mum walking inside my room. I looked at my clock, and sighed.

6:15 a.m.

"I'm sick" I muttered, letting out a few fake coughs.

"No you're not.. But quite the actress." By the tone she was using, I'm guessing the school never called.

"Please don't make me go back!" I pouted, sitting up. She laughed before kissing my head.

"Your fathers rules, not mine." She hummed before leaving. I picked up my pillow and screamed into it.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

I knew sitting on my bed groaning about wouldn't change the fact that I had to go to school. So I got up, had a shower and began to get ready. I looked at my clock and it was 7:30a.m.

Time for school..........

Woo hoo.

"I am ready." I announced as I made my way into the kitchen, where my father was sipping his coffee, reading the paper and my mother was waiting for me, clearly reading for work.

"Alright, let's go."

As I made my way out to the car, something caught my attention. It was the house across the street, the door swung open and I froze when I realized it was Harry.

WE ARE NEIGHBORS?

"Just fuck off, mum!" He snapped, making his way to a car. Which I'm guessing is his? He glanced at me and smirked before turning away.

I was frozen.

"Wow, what a rude child.. Come on honey." My mother snapped my from my thoughts as I got into my car.

I don't swear a lot but FUCK!

I took my normal seat in math, but today it was in 4th block. The last block of the day. And I was thrilled.

Today hasn't been so bad, but I still feel uncomfortable. Again, I was shocked to see Harry come into class. I've learned he's in my English and gym class as well. OH and Science. He didn't show up for half of them though.

"Ms. Montgomery, can you come up here please?" I was nervous when Mr. Watson called my name, but I took a deep breath and made my way.

"Teacher's pet." Harry said aloud as I walked by. I hated that name. I'd been called it since I was 14. Everyone laughed at his comment.
