Daddy Issues C.H

2

We arrived to gates of hell; school. The faces of people I hate appeared into my view as my palms became sweaty. Michael noticed my uneasiness as he rubbed my back, giving me his sympathy. I looked up to him and gave him a small smile, to assure him i was okay.

I darted for my locker to get out my chemistry books for first period. I then closed my locker after i got what I needed, i turned in the direction of class, to run into an all too familiar calum hood. The classic badboy that everyone wants. He is the biggest fuckboy I'll ever know.

When we were little, Calum and I were best friends. We spent every second together, that is, until high school. He found his friendship group with the fuck boys and i found mine with Michael, and Ashton. I'm glad I found these guys.
It's hard for me to make friends after I stopped talking, 7 years. 7 years of silence and still I refuse to speak. I only talk to my brother and ash and mikey because they are the only people I trust, but I can't trust them with the reason why I stopped talking. I wouldn't know what they're reaction would be. What everyone would think of me if the whole school found out, I'd be bullied even more because I don't talk, and everyone knows my deepest darkest secret. It started 11 years ago, but the words he told me 7 years ago, completely changed my life.

                * * * * *

"If you speak a word of this to anyone Delilah, I will kill your family, and your friends, and I'll kill you last so you can watch them all die."
I sat on the cold metal floor, cut and bruised, bleeding and close to death, crying my eyes out because of what he had said.

                * * * * *

I'd promised myself at that point that I would never ever speak to anyone again, unless I knew I could really really trust them even with this secret.
I'm 16 now and I'm trying to put that behind me, and I'm looking forward to homecoming, even though I'm just a nobody that no one will want to take too the dance, but oh well, worth a try right? You know how it is, turning 16, wanting to make a change. I may as well go for it.

" hey del, I wondered where you'd hurried off too"

"Mikey, can I ask you something?" I asked

"Should I go shopping for a homecoming dress?"

"Omg Delilahhhhh, your going to homecoming!!!"

"Well I thought I'd make a change this year I guess" 

"Hey Delilah" Ashton chimed when he saw me.

"Hi Ashton, I was just talking to little old Michael here about my decision for homecoming!"

"What is your decision?" Ashton pondered, rubbing his chin.

"Well I decided I'm going, but I haven't got a dress to wear"

No problem del, we can go shopping after school" Michael turned and said to me flashing me that killer Clifford smile that he does.

" yeah mikey, sounds good"

So that's my night planned out, I get to spend an evening shopping with the one and only Michael Clifford and his puck rock style and his crazy green hair.
