She

Sadness, Tears and our Broken Hearts

The next day, Avery  seemed really down and bothered by something, i  asked what was wrong and  she wouldnt answer. I guessed it was about  school because we have 2  tests and 3 homework assignments to be set  today so i  wondered if that  was it. "Hey Avery, are you okay?" i  asked, she just replied with  "Quinn, i'm fine." i excalimed "No your  not!" and I hugged her, she  hugged me back as someone shouted at us  "FAGGOT!" and Avery started  crying. "Hey Avery! C-come here, ignore  them." i cried out in panic not  wanting to see her upset as i walked out  the school doors to the courtyard  and sat her down next to me in the  usual corner we sit in alone, because  of our homophobic school mates. I  let her rant to me and she let me  listen, she spoke about the hate she  gets from our school and other  induviduals that weve never met.

When  school had finished  i walked to our lockers and grabbed my jacket then  waited while some  poeple shouted out things like "FREAK!" and  "FAGGOT!" to me, Avery  eventually arrived, as soon as she saw me she  bursted into tears again,  "W-W-why does e-e-ever-yone hate us???" She  cried out to me, "I-i dont  know" i grabbed her hand and ran out of  school with her while crying  from seeing her tears. I dragged her out to  the back of the school and i  pushed her against the wall softly and  whiped away her tears. I kissed  her and she smiled. We hugged for about  30 seconds and then walked home  together, holding hands, and if  someone decided to call us out or say  something rude about us then i  would squeeze her hand and smile at her  when she looked at me. I was  the one who would always stay strong and  try to keep Avery happy all  the time but she breaks down very easily  because of her past.

I arrived home and as soon as i got in i saw my mum making a cup of tea, "Hey dear, how was school today?" she asked without turning around, "Fine mum," i replied while grabbing my phone from my pocket and autommatically start messaging Avery, i wrote "Hey babe, im home xx".
