Chapter 16

Christians P.O.V

I woke up and realised we had school today..fun. I dragged myself out of bed and woke up Ashton. We both changed quickly. I threw on grey leggings with a black, white, and blue flannel shirt. I slipped on my combat boots and tied them. Ashton had on black tshirt covered by a grey hoodie and black jeans on with his black vans. I put in my contacts but he left his big glasses on and we headed downstairs. He grabbed cereal and poured a bowl for both of us while i put me hair up in a messy bun.

"Ready to go?" He asked waiting by the door after breakfast and after I came out of the bathroom from brushing my teeth.

"Yes i am." I said running down the stairs and grabbing my bag.

"Lets go." He said and we walked out the door. He gripped my hand and we walked to the bus. Then got on, and listened to music, just like always. We finally arrived at school and went to the cafeteria, where Cat was waiting. She slipped her foot under mine and I tripped. I didnt fall, I let go of Ashtons hand and spun around.

"Don't touch me!" I said through gritted teeth and she stood up.

"What are you-" She said but I cut her off.

"No. Shut up Cat, no one wants to hear your bullshit!" I spit back.

"Oh you thin-" She said.

"I said shut up!" I said louder.

"Christian, just come on." I heard Ashton whisper and gently grab my arm. I yanked my arm away and spun around to face him.

"No Ashton! Stay out of this! Im sorry for dragging you into this shit but i've had enough!" I said and turned back around to look at Cat. I stepped towards her and she just starred at me.

"Look I've had enough of your shit Cat! I'm tired of you pushing me around like some kind of toy! Because I'm not! I'm a human being, just like you! Well no, i'm not like you! I have a heart! I dont make my life goal to hurt other people! And I pray to god that you get help because there is clearly something really wrong with you, to be that fucked up!" I said and she looked stunned. I took a deeb, silent breath and noticed i was shaking uncontrolably.

"I'm done! And so are you!" I finished and walked away shaking. I smiled slightly at Ashton who had his jaw dropped starring at me. He laughed quietly and I grabbed his hand as we walked to our table. I hadent realised that everyone was starring at us, even the few teachers that were in there. As I was about to sit down I felt someone grab my arm.

"You think you're so tough.." I heard cat say and I immediatly spun around and slapped her across the face and she fell to the floor.

"Yes, yes I do!" I said and I heard a fer gasps around me come to an end. A teacher grabbed me by the arm and dragged me out of the cafeteria, and straight to the principle. I sat in the principles office and she came in.

"Christian, do you want to tell me what that was all about?" She asked.

"Not really." I replied and looked at the floor.

"Then I guess you will just have to get an in school suspension." She said.

"Are you kidding me?! After what they all did to me, and Ashton!" I blurted out and sat up.

"After what they did to you?" She asked. I slumped back in my chair and realised what she just did.

"Christian, you're going to have to tell me if you dont want to be suspended." She said. I was lost thinking about the mutliple times I was kicked, and punched, hit and beaten here almost to the point of throwing up or passing out, and all the times they drove me over the edge and I did or almost did cut.
