Discovering you and I

12- Breckfast and bruises

The night with Josh was sadly only short, a mer 4 hours. But I can tell you now that it was the best night I have ever had. At one point I turned over and as I did Josh's grip tightened as he pulled me so that my head was resting on his chest, listening to the rhythm of his heart beat and light snores.

Oh, Josh do you have any idea what you are doing to me?

We stayed this way until his annoying alarm started beeping at 7. My alarm would have gone of to but my battery was dead. With a stir we both woke up, he looked at me and smiled as I slowly sat up.

"Morning" I said

"Morning, do you want to talk about last night?"

Was he still worried I was ill? I had completely forgotten about that.

"I feel better now, when I was a kid I always got migraines and bad tummy aches, I just hadn't one in ages it shocked me."

Josh nodded, "We should probably get ready for hell then." I laughed and went back into my room to get ready.

HEY I CALL SCHOOL HELL TOO!!!!!

I heard Josh get in the shower and waited till he was out and back into his own room before I went in the bathroom, had a shower, brushed my hair and teeth. Once I was done I put the clothes Josh had let me borrow into a pile and knocked on his door to give them back, but there was no answer so I just let them outside.

I made the spare room as tidy as it was before I used it and made the bed I slept in last night. I collected my phone and wandered down stairs and into the kitchen where I saw Josh. He had 4 slices of bacon and some scrambled eggs on the go. YUMMY!!!

I smiled at him and said "smells delicious!"

He was standing over the pan with his hair still wet from the shower, a plain black tee on, black skinny jeans and some black converse hi tops. "Hope you like bacon and eggs."

"Of course." I was wearing my clothes from yesterday which was a white top  and my light blue skinny jeans with some white converse.

We had 30 minutes before we needed to leave so we sat at the table eating our bacon and eggs talking about everything. I thought it would be awkward after last night. But thank God it wasn't.

Everything was going so well until just as I was leaving Josh said, "Don't tell anyone about me and you being friends or whatever we are."

I turned round at him in disbelief, how dare he? Why does he care? What a dick? Just when I thought we were getting somewhere, how could he say that?

"What the fuck?" I asked and he was shocked by my swearing but right now I couldn't care less.

"I just think that it isn't a good idea, your overacting a bit don't you think?"

"No I don't think I am overacting, no offence Josh but who would I have to tell? It is more the fact that you are talking just like my parents and my old friends, you're embarrassed by me, I thought you were different, but your just like everyone else who hurts me. I don't want nothing to do with you Josh anymore, go screw yourself."

With that I stormed out the house leaving Josh standing there in shock with his mouth dropped open. Amazed I didn't cry, I got in the car put my phone on charge and drove myself to school. I couldn't hold it in anymore I just let all the tears escape.

What surprised me most was that I was more sad about this then when my parents told me they were leaving.

When I arrived at school I had 5 minutes until class, my phone had charged enough to get me through the day and I checked, there was nothing from mom or dad or Josh.

I quickly walked up the stairs and through the main entrance, ignoring the stares as I got to my locker got my books and went to class. The day was going well I had seen nothing of Josh or any run ins with any bitches. Although I was dreading my last lesson as I had history next to Josh, but I would survive. A lot of teachers had asked where I was yesterday and I just said I was ill. Thankfully I didn't have much work to catch up on.

It was near the end of lunch, as I was walking to history class, when I was roughly pulled into a janitors closet.

It's Josh, I thought

"Well well little miss ditcher, have fun with Josh yesterday did you? Back off he is mine."

It's Jessica

And what she did next made me wondering why I was ever friends with her.

Her left hand swiped across my face as she pulled my hair down so that I fell on the floor. She kicked my tummy several times and stepped on my right hand 4 times. The pain was horrendous, as I cried out for her to stop, she kicked my face and walked out laughing, as I sat there curled in a ball crying.

I stayed there for 10 minutes until I collected myself together and went to history class, I realised should have probably gone to a bathroom but everything hurt so much. Jess was already there in front of my table. I looked at Josh who had his head resting on his arms staring at the window, people gasped as I quickly walked in trying to cover my face with my hair, the teacher was a supply and didn't even care I was late or my appearance.

Josh still hadn't looked at me as I pulled out my chair got out a book and pen and sat down. Slowly he turned his head seeing all the people staring at me before he could understand why, when he did see he flinched.

You could see every emotion fly through him as he searched my face and body for bruises. Pain, worry, anger, sympathy. With nothing said he got up packed his stuff, then mine. Took my left hand, (as my right was weak and bruised) and lead me out the class there was 10 minutes left and the supply wasn't even watching.

Everyone was shocked, Jessica gasped and we just left.
