(Katherine's p.o.v.)

"ITS FRIDAY, FRIDAY, GOTTA GET DOWN ON FRIDAY!" I sing on the top of my lungs getting in the shower.

"LOOKING FORWARD TO THE WEEKEND, PARTY AND PARTYING YA! FUN FUN FUN LOOKING FORWARD TO THE WEEKEN OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT."

"Katherine, you really gotta sing that annoying song everyday?" Maxx says coming into the bathroom to brush his teeth, like usual. No privacy what so ever.

"Yes I do, it's Friday so I gotta celebrate."

"But why so loud?"

"Because I'm excited."

I wash my hair and think about the classes I have today. First hour is Math, Second is LA, third is R.E., fourth is lunch and advisory, Fifth is.. science, and lastly is gym.

I finish up in the shower and go to my room to get dressed. I pick out a blue and white tank top with white short shorts. I dress like its summer even though it's winter. I don't care though. I pick out black flats and start on my hair.

I blow dry my hair , then I go into straightening my hair. This takes a while but I get it done in time. I put on mascara, eye shadow, and then make up stuff for my wrists. I look at myself in the mirror and nod at my appearance. I grab a jacket then head downstairs.

"Why do you have to wear shorts and a tank top? it's not summer." Maxx says behind me.

"I tell you this everyday, I like my short shorts, I like my tank tops, we don't go outside all day, and in gym we wear shorts so I can wear shorts all day."

"Such a girly girl."

"Not all girly girls wear this stuff everyday to school you know. And I don't always wear this.."

"You basically do though."

"Shut up so I can eat."

"Surprise surprise. First you were all happy getting up and now you actually want to eat. We must be in some kind of alien world."

"I gotta go, Mackenzie is waiting." I say in a small voice. I make sure I have my blade in my phone case and grab my backpack.

"Kath, I didn't mean-" I was already out the door before he could finish. Tears spilled from my eyes and I didn't care enough to wipe them away. I get he wasn't saying anything mean but in ways to me it was sounding like, don't eat. I deal with this enough at school, I don't need it at home either.

I reach the bus stop and Mackenzie comes over. She notices that I'm crying and brings me into a best hug.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know why I'm crying really, but Maxx said something about wow your actual eating. I don't get why I'm crying but in ways I do."

"What did it sound like he was saying to you?"

"Wow your actual eating, it's so unusual so stop eating."

"He would never say that or mean that though, no matter how much he hates you or you hate him, he would never ever be that cruel."

"I don't know."

"Kath, i don't think you know this but I think they know more than what you tell them. I think Maxx knows that you have a rough time. He would never say anything like that."

"I believe but also I don't." The bus arrives and Maxx comes running to the bus stop. I sit next to Mackenzie as usual and Maxx sits across from us.

"Kath, you know that's not what I meant."

"I- I don't know."

"I would never say anything to hurt you like that. Yeah I hate you like a brother would and I call you names but I would mean anything to hurt you that badly."

"You don't have to lie to me Maxx.." I say under my breath.

I sigh and sit back into my seat. This is not how I wanted my day to turn out. I was hoping that I would be happy for once but I can't even be happy for a second. Lets see how bad school is..
