Evelyn's pov

I woke up and got changed for school after Anna left. Last night really had me emotional, I mean come on, what kind of apology was that.

I just need to forget about him, he isn't going to change, he isn't going to want to be my friend again, he won't stop hurting me. There is no escaping this pain, this hurt. Not with him around.

These scars on my wrist are because of him, the tears on my pillow are because of him, everything is because of him. He hurts me yet I'm attracted to him. Maybe it's because we used to be best friends. I know there is still some good in him, sometimes I'm positive he's shown me he can be good, but then he hurts me again.

Without thinking I realize I have 3 new scars on my wrist. I clean them up, put some bracelets on, and then go to school.


: At School :

I walked passed all the people trying to get to math and science. As I turned down the hallway someone grabbed my wrist and pulled me away. I winced from the pain but tried to brush it off.

I opened my eyes to see the one and only Luke Hemmings. I rolled my eyes and tried to walk away but his grip was to tight. I winced again and let out a little yelp.

" Let go of me." I said

" Why are you wearing so many bracelets?" He asked

" I said let go." I replied through gritted teeth

" Why are you wearing them." He said

" Dang Luke!" I yelled

" You don't even care! Just give it up!" I yelled in his face.

" Come with me." He said pulling me outside. I didn't even fight back I just let him pull me away.

He took me to the back of the school and in the forest.

" Why did you take me here?" I asked

" Because I need to show you something." He said

Before I could object he pulled up his sleeve and showed me his scars.

" Luke I-" I started

" Who are these from?" I asked

" No one." He replied trying to play it off

" Luke, somebody caused every one of those scars, who." I said sternly

He sighed " My dad." He said

" You're dad? Luke you told me your dad left you." I said confused but gently

" He did, that's why. I wasn't  good enough for him. I made my mom go through that pain because I wasn't good enough." He explained letting a tear roll down his cheek

" Luke I'm sorry I didn't know." I said softly

" I swear if you say a word I will make your life miserable." He said pointing a finger at me making me take a step back. I nodded.

" Well I better get going." I said turning towards the school

" Wait!" He said pulling at my hand this time which sent chills through my body. I haven't held his hand in years.
