The Girl with a Half Broken Heart

Chapter 4(the even later times)

Monday, oh Monday, EVERYONE bitches about Mondays...

It was a chilled Sunday afternoon and I was absolutely positively drrrrreeeading (absolutely dreading) what would come on Monday...

Would he tell people? Make me a laughing stock for the rest of the year?

Would he black mail me with it? Holding it over my head forever more?

Or would he just keep it to himself...

Or worst, tell one person with a REEEEEALLY loud mouth?!?!

Oh god, the suspense was KILLING me...

Then, it came... Monday!!!

Monday started off just as bad as what was to come.

I woke up at around 3 a.m., wondering what he would decide to do.

BEEEEEEPPPPPPP my alarm sounded, making me jump and lose my train of thought... Monday was officially upon me.

Shaking ever to slightly, I started for the door and grabbed the towel.

Putting the shower on the hottest setting, I dived into the welcoming steamy fog Letting the steam engulf me, trying to let my stress and worries rise up with the steam, when suddenly the water stopped.

"Oh-no no no! Oh pleeeeeeease no!" I said banging my fists against the shower walls. Every so often,the water would just stop working and won't come back for days!

Once again doubting wether or not the universe was against me.

Changing into my red embroidered uniform shirt with khaki's and black sneakers. Throwing my gym clothes into my backpack,I headed out the door and into my new world of fear.

Walking briskly outside, I walked down the street and rounded the corner and starting to wait for the bus.

There was the usual waiting in-patient chatter.

śçrēëçćčh I heard the familiar screech and 'clunkity clunk' of the rusty old engine as we lined up, waiting to board the smelly terror.

Stepping on the bus, I took my phone out and plugged my head phones in. Letting the music surround me, temporarily, taking into a whole new world. "You belong to me, my Snow White que-" I paused the song as the bus came to a slow stop.

Heart racing, I plucked out an earbud...

Watching the people file on the bus, my hands started to shake... My body started to quake...

Quickly shoving the earbud back in my ears, and diverting my attention, I still found my self strain glossy eyed at the bus doors. Waiting, then, he walked on.

Staring back at my curiously, I swore I was blushing deep enough for it to be noticeable (the tip of my nose turns tomato red, and my cheeks looks like a brown red, bet you wouldn't have noticed if I didn't point it out!!!) I quickly looked away then back as he took his usual seat across from me.

Smoooooth move, I thought sarcastically to myself.

Turning the music up, I tried let it drown out everything around me.

Until he leaned in and said--

"Haha," to the girl sitting next to me as she dropped her phone.

PHEW! I said literally feeling some of the stress lift off my shoulders and let out a sigh of relief.

But how long would he keep it a secret? How long would it take before-before the whole school knew?

My breath quickens, and the last thing I remember is the song lyrics "stop light, lock the door" and seeing the floor rush to me.

I didn't dream, blackness surrounded me every were. Then saw myself running away, but from what? I turned to look behind me to find people screaming and yelling at me.. laughter filled the air, and HE was leading them right to me. "Roshae, roshae!" they chanted as though it was the magic words. "No-no!" I screamed sitting up with a start.

"Whoa there!" A lady said.

I was in the nurses office. Omg, I did it again! Every time I get too stressed, or scared, or worried, I black out.

"Um-thanks!" I mumbled as I got out of the bed, stumbling as I tried to stand up.

"Are you sure you are okay? I could have work sent to you." she offered. The school didn't know about my condition, it was only known between me and my family(and now you guys!)

"Oh-yeah. I uh- fell asleep." I said fibbing and walking out the door before anymore questions could be asked.

I checked the time, I had 3 minutes to get to homeroom. Okay, that's just perfect! I said as I sped down the hallway.

BBRRRRRINNNG! The bell sounded just as I walked through the door.

Okay, so a total of: 7 people knew my secret. The secret about Dominic- not my condition.

They all swore not to say a word, but how many people did Dominic tell? Knowing him, Precious and Charlie must already know... but that didn't mean that THEY didn't tell anyone!!!

Now, there was only a month until school ended... So I didn't have to suffer for long...

1st period orchestra came and went, with Ms.Lasley yelling and being annoying as usual. seriously, me and everyone else in class say she's targeting me, but she denies it!!! Like, really?

2nd period English and 3rd period gym went by in a breeze...

Then, 4th period dragged on and on! I got dirty looks from my recent ex Devin. I just ignored him, it was kind of funny... His first girlfriend dumped him in little of a month!(Dominic wasn't jealous, so he got the boot!)

Then, the dreaded bell rang.

I had only told Lexi(Cherika and Alli already knew, they where there!) about what I did that Friday at Ron-a-roll...

Nooooobody else knew, except maybe-they didn't have to know...

Arriving at lunch, Amaya, Aryanna, Jaela, Jenny, Lexi and I took our usual seats at the 2nd table.

As watching the lunch doors for 'him' to enter, I got caught up in a conversation about who's the smart one and such.

When Lexi leaned in and whispered "HE's here."

Looking up I caught his eye and I said--

"What are you looking at?" rudely.

Taken back he replied "Nothing pretty!" before walking away and getting lost in the crowd.

Hey-remember that annoying ex I was telling you about? The one I dated to try and get Dominic jealous? Well, he plops himself down at the table like I only didn't end his life.

"Ummm..." I started, unable to break the awkward tension.

"Why are you here?" I asked kind of annoyed.

Chose g to ignore me, he tried striking up a conversation with my friends.
