------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock going off. I groan and rub the sleep out of my eyes as I shuffle to the bathroom. I throw off my dad's old work t-shirt he used to wear every day to work before he died. after I undress I turn on the shower shivering as the cold water ran down my back waking me up before turning warm. I silently massage my scalp with my green apple shampoo as I think about what to wear today. Short green dress with light grey cover- up and silver flats or light blue tank top with long black jacket with my faded dark blue jeans and skater boy shoes? I hop out of the shower with a light pink fluffy towel wrapped around my body and one wrapped around my hair. I decided on the tank top, jeans, and skater boy shoes. I walk into my bathroom again and combed my long Brown hair and applied a simple green eyeliner that matched my eyes and a peach colored eyeshadow. I quickly applied some water- proof mascara and ran, no slid, down the stairs into the kitchen. I popped some bread into the toaster just as I heard my alcoholic mother groan and yell at my so called "cat," to stop running around her room. We don't even own a cat. We have a Dog but he lives outside in the shed.

When dad died my sweet, loving mother became unknown to me. She transformed into a monster who only had one way of talking and that was yelling. The next thing I knew my mother was not coming home until really early in the morning. She slapped me a lot for things I didn't even do. I once caught her trying to strangle our dog, Darkness. He was dad's dog, and he loved him. He named him Darkness because he is pure white except for a black spot on his lower back. I called to her and she realized what she was doing and broke down and I held her as she sobbed into shoulder.

She stumbled down the stairs and saw me she glared at me. " Your damn cat woke me up." she Slowly spat out and took a step towards me. " Mom we don't have cat." I spoke. She slapped me. " Don't talk back to me." She said," And don't call me Mom." She grabbed a beer bottle out of the fridge and trudged up the stairs as I held my stinging face. I heard a car door slam and a knock on the door. I walk over and opened the door to see Jackson holding hos car keys. He was leaning against the door frame and gave me a small smile. " Ready to go?" He asked. "Yeah just a sec." I say turning around. Jackson grabbed my arm and turned me to face him. He took my face in one of his hands and examined my face. "You were slapped?" He asks. "I'm fine." he let go of my face and followed me inside. I grabbed my bag and turned to see my mother standing at the bottom of the stairs. Her gaze softened and were fixated on Jackson. "David." she whispered. He gave her a questionable look. " Mrs.Aerole I'm not your husband." She ran to him sobbing. " David why did you leaves me??" He stiffened then relaxed and stroked her head. She pulled out of his embrace the walked over to the toaster and pulled out my breakfast and shoved it into her mouth hungrily. Jackson and I walked out the door to hear, "Bye David, Bye Madeline I love you both."

I just finished putting my stuff in my locker and grabbed my art supplies, my last class before lunch, and heard snickering. I turned around to see Kara. " Heard your mother has gone crazy." She sneered. I just balled up fist and turned and walked down the hall. "Wouldn't be surprised if you turned out like your mother, crazy and alone!" Tears started to burn my eyes. I walked faster to hear laughter behind me. I stumbled and dropped all my stuff to hear more laughing. Tears started to roll down my cheeks. I started to pick up my stuff to see a hand reach down as well to pick up my spilt pencils. I look up to see Jackson with a angry expression on his face. His face softened when my eyes met his. after all my stuff was picked up he helped me up and walked me to art.

I met Jackson and a few of my other friends at our lunch table. I pulled out my Apple and began munching on it. I got up from our lunch table and walked to the bathroom. I looked in the full length mirror and examined my make-up. it was a little smudged but not enough to notice it unless you really looked. I walked out of the bathroom to notice a neatly wrapped box in the spot where I was sitting. I looked at the note attached to it. It said:

My dear Madeline,

please accept this as a token of my love, ugh so cheesy I thought. I kept reading, even though you don't know who wrote this I will love you and you will eventually be mine ~ D

I opened the box to find a white rose. I smelled it and it was still fresh. Kimberly, the Blondie, gushed over my secret admirer. "Did you guys see who it was?" I asked "No, it was thrown but whoever did sure a

had a good arm." says Sadie, a short haired darkish skinned girl who happened to be one of my best friends.
