Joey pov
I saw Ashlee in the line and a girl with her I'm guessing she was saying some pretty hurtful stuff but I couldn't go it's like there was a fire and someone was trapped but my feet would not move except this time it was a fire and I did not let myself help them. I hate this I'm going to find out why Brandon wants her out of all the girls.

Ashlee pov
The bell rang at the end of the day and I grabbed my skateboard to ride home today. I didn't really feel like catching the bus also it was a great day. I push myself down the street and ride to Starbucks for a quick mocha frappe (my favourite😏) I see Brandon there and wave to him, he orders and sits down with me.
" hey this a coincidence " I giggle.
" yeh hey um I'm not doing anything tonight wanna hang out or something or I mean I understand why you wouldn't I it's just that I I just asked in case" I laugh at his embarrassment.
" Brandon I would love to hang out with you but first can we go to mine just so I can put my stuff away!" He nods and we begin the walk as I'm not to far. We walk to the door and I grab my keys, instantly I'm surrounded by the sweet aroma of chocolate. I look in the kitchen and my mum has made chocolate cake. I wipe my finger across the top to taste the delicious sensation.
" uh uh no this is for tonight I have a work thing so you will be home by yourself because your sister is staying at your nans and I will be out lat..... who's this cutie" I laugh when she finally realises Brandon is here.
" mum this is my friend Brandon we were gonna hang out tonight at the park or something but it's about to rain I think"
" it's ok hunny you can stay inside I don't mind Joey stayed inside all the time also how is Joey?" I instantly feel my smile drop when I hear his name I think my mum realises
" ok well sweetie I'm off otherwise I'll be late love you and it was nice meeting you Brandon" my mum walks out the front door with the cake but I can't happen to smell the aroma still. I look around the kitchen and see a note on the fridge reading.
This ones just for you baby girl because you deserve a break from today I could see it in your eyes. Xx
I smile but then remember about what's been happening she must of noticed. Brandon and I walk to the tv room. I grab the remote and begin to go through Netflix and find a show we both like.
"I'm gonna go get some snacks ok" I get up and walk to the kitchen to grab a bag of popcorn out. I put it in the microwave and turn it on. I still can't help but wonder
What Joey meant when he said I'll get hurt. I need to figure this out but I don't know what to do. I'll stay away from him but I still think I should watch just to find out what's really going on. The microwave goes off and I put the popcorn in a bowl. I grab a few packets of lollies and bring them with me along with some drinks.
" wow when you said some snacks you really meant a lot of snacks" I giggle
" so what's the deal with you and that Joey kid I mean I heard about it from Meredith but you know she always lies" he laughs
" um well nothing really just friends...actually acquaintances"
" ok then that means it's ok if I do this.." he lunges forwards and kisses my lips hard I try to pull away but he grabs my arms and pins me up against the wall. He forces his tongue down my throats and at this time I'm crying and can hardly breath. I remember when I was with Joey we set an emergency pattern in our phones. I type the pin in and hope for the best. I eventually kick Brandon off using all my strength then fall to the floor.
" your going to pay for that baby girl" I run down stairs to the door but it was locked with the key Brandon picks me up and throws me on the couch hitting my head on the table on the way down. I can barely see anything on hear anything. I hear the slightest sound almost like a door slamming open and yelling suddenly the weight on my body lifts and I can breath. I pass out without any knowledge of what's happening.
(Next chapter is really dramatic and sad sorry guys I want to end this book)
