New Love

Recovored or not?

I spent months in rehab to gain strength back in my body. Now my body is basically healed but i still hate Kyle for what he did to me. My dad told me throughout my rehab that I deserve much better than him. But I don't want better than him! I loved him and my dad will never understand that. Today is my first day back at school and I'm worried about how everyone will treat me. The way gossip spreads through my school like wildfire, I'm sure everyone will laugh at me because of how much effort I put into that relationship. Plus I have a huge scar down the side of my cheek that people are going to stare at. Hell, it took me three months to get used to it.

It's my senior year and I no longer have a car to drive myself to school since I totaled it leaving Kyle's house. Oh wait, Kyle is going to be at school. "Dad wait. I don't wanna go to school. Im not ready."

"You are ready, the whole time in rehab you actually got ahead in your school work. You are going to do fi-," he looks into my worried eyes. "This is about Kyle isn't it?" I nod my head. "Honey, you are going to do great today. You are smart, strong, and beautiful. You have been through so much and you survived it all. Go get 'em tiger." He says practically shoving me out of the car and onto the sidewalk leading up to the school.

I turn and head into school, not prepared for everything the year holds for me...I walk through the doors and freeze. In a matter of seconds all eyes were on me, well, on my face mostly. Damn. I slowly take a step down the hall, the another and another. I hear laughing from one person. Then another. All of a sudden the whole school it seems like is laughing at me. I limp run to the bathroom and more tears fall down my face.

"Goddamnit Kyle! You ruined my freakin life!" I fall to the floor, but not before I slam my fist into the mirror and shatter it everywhere. My hand is bleeding.

"Camille?"

"Oh my god, Jess?"

"I-I didn't know you were coming back today, are you okay is your hand okay?" She steps into the stall and grabs a ball of toilet paper. She soaks up the blood.

"Um yeah I'm fine. How are you?"

"Well I'm good. Me and Tyler are still together. I just..why did you cheat on Kyle?"

"What did you just say??? That's unbelievable!"

"what is? Everyone says you did!"

"Okay and you being my bestfriend didn't even dare to just ASK me about it? No, you decide to listen to this bullcrap about me from all the people you hate at school!"

"Well what happened then because the school has a good story going about you..."
