I just wanted the world to swallow me up right then and there, I could feel the embarrasment flow up my face as my cheeks got redder right up until the point where you could cook eggs on them.
The whole class stared at me, waiting for my responce, that's when the biggest lie I had ever told slipped from my lips.
"I don't care." I replied. I could feel the tears brewing in my eyes but I tried to fight them back, not wanting the entire room knowing how much I actually did care, how much those words had killed me, stabbed me deep inside, ripped my heart out, how much I wanted to run straight out of that classroom.
My friends rushed towards me, all hugging me and asking if I was okay, but I could hear nothing although the room was booming with sound, all I could focus on was how much I wanted to cry, how much I wanted to burst into tears like I was three years old yet again. I looked at my best friend Alice, wanting her to be able to read my mind, so I didn't have to explain how I was feeling.
I could feel the tears fighting back, I tried to beat them but I couldn't, I wasn't strong enough. I let them all go, the acid ran down my cheeks, I couldn't help but cry, I had to let it all out. I couldn't cope, so I ran, ran out of the classroom, out of the hallway and out of the school. Well almost, but before I could I ran straight into the head teacher.
Mr. McGuinn, a strict man, who's moustache wobbles when he yells.
"What are you doing out of class?" He boomed, no one is really sure when he's yelling because his voice is always so loud.
"N-nothing sir." I sobbed.
"Then for gods sake girl, get back to class."
"I can't!" I sobbed and off I ran yet again, not knowing where I was going, but somewhere faraway from everyone.
"Get back here!" I heard him yelling, his voice fading as I ran further away.
I slid into the girls toilets, which luckily happened to be right next to wear I had ran to. I looked around. No one was there. I sat on the sink and cried, cried my eyes out until my eyes were cried dry. And there I sat, right up until 3 o'clock. Which was when I realised, I had to go home and face telling my dad.
