Sorry for the late update, I got my iPod taken away, and all my stories are on it.
Chapter 10
By the time Friday had come I was really excited, I was to New York later. I was also super nervous, the journey involved another flight, which I hated. Luckily I would have Jen and Ariana though. Maybe even my uncle Frankie, who I had met the other day.
Ariana had also explained that some of her crew were coming, including a woman called Colleen, who I would apparently love. Ariana was bummed that her friend Alexa couldn't come, but Frankie and I had promised to make up for it.
A the hands on the clock slowly dragged around I found myself getting distracted in lessons, and that isn't a good idea, especially in Gym. I got hit in the face a few times before I decided I should at least try to work.
The game was only dodge ball though so it didn't take much. I half heartedly lobbed the ball at people whilst dodging on coming balls. Katie had come around last night as well, and she had met Frankie.
Half way through gym the doors slammed open and the principle strode into the large hall. Everyone dropped what they were doing and turned to face him as he whispered something to the head. Someone tall walked in after the principle and though almost everyone was baffled I sent Katie a knowing look.
She snuck over to me, 'who is that? It can't be Nathan, or Ariana.' She chewed her bottom lip. 'Its Frankie isn't it.'
Shrugging I watched as the man came closer, I recognised the blond immediately. 'Yep, it's Frankie. Oh crap my shorts!' Though we didn't have to wear uniform we had to wear certain sports gear. I didn't have mine yet, so I had to borrow some shorts. They were really baggy so I rolled the waist band up. In short the shorts didn't cover much. 'Cover me.'
I hid behind Katie as I rolled the waist band down, hoping that Frankie wouldn't notice and tell Ariana. I stepped out from me failed cover and smiled at him. Giving me a quick look over Frankie scooped me up in a bear hug. 'Don't think I didn't notice your shorts.' He whispers in my ear.
Flushing a deep scarlet I waited until he placed me back in the floor. 'Please don't tell mum. Please.' I giggled slightly when he tapped his nose. 'Thanks, your the best uncle ever.' I turn to Katie, 'see you Monday, have fun at Jessica's.'
Grimacing she shakes her head, 'I'm not going to that Bi..... Um that girls party. But you better have fun, and call me as soon as you can.' She turns a light pink when she almost swears. Luckily Frankie doesn't say anything about it.
Climbing into a small white Audi I smoothed out my PE top. I didn't have time to change it at school, but I would do it at home. Slowly I bit into the cereal bar that I was handed. Chewing slowly I let out a large yawn, watching out the window as we drove home.
When I walked in through the door I had just enough time to dump my bag before Ariana dragged me up the stair, into my bedroom, where she thrust a pile of clothes into my hands. I expected her to leave, but she stood there patiently as I pulled my shirt over my top and tossed it onto the bed. Adjusting my bra I shook out a light blue thin shirt and put it on over the top of a white vest.
I was pulling my shorts down when cool hands touched my hip, they traced the scars and scabs left there. Slowly I raised my head looking at Ariana as she had tears welling in her eyes, 'what happened?' She asked as if it wasn't obvious.
Looking away I swallowed the lump in my throat, 'nothing.' I muttered, then changing it to, 'you know.' I shuffled my feet on the carpet, wishing I had been more careful whilst changing.
Despite my half changed state I was swept into a bear hug, 'oh baby. Why?' She smoothed the top of my hair. 'When was the last time?'
Biting back sobs I hug Ariana back, 'because it took me away from the outside world. It took away my pain mum. I'm sorry, but it worked so well. The last time I did it was a couple of nights before you came for me. I'm sorry.'
We stayed in silence for a while, before Ariana opened her eyes again and stepped back, 'you listen to me. You are beautiful, absolutely perfect. You may be feeling down but you must never hurt yourself. Promise me you won't. Please Hun.' I nod softly, not trusting words. 'Good, come on get dressed. If you ever need to talk I'm open, so is Jen and Nathan and anyone else, even Scooter.'
Tugging on a pair of shorts I nod, 'I know mum. It was just back then, with all the bullying and what not, it seemed like the easy way out. Now I don't need that though, because I love my life.'
For a second Ariana clenched her fists, before laying her hands on my shoulders, 'I'm glad. You know, you've changed me so much baby.' Slipping my feet into my red Vans I look to her to explain. 'Well. It's hard to explain, but... But I feel more protective over those I love. It doesn't matter though.' She shook her head, walking to the door frame. 'Come on the others are waiting.'

Wow, emotional at the end eh? And what about Adeline? The little rebel with her short PE shorts. At least it was Frankie and not someone else. That would have been awkward.
I can't believe that I'm on chapter 10 already. Unbelievable, by the time you are reading this I will probably have a few more chapters done, because I am ahead of the curve. I've only just released the first chapter but I've already written this one.
There was a massive storm last night! Like huge. It woke me up at like 4 in the morning and apparently there was a trampoline in the front garden, all I know is that we are now missing a fence.
Fun Fact: hmmm, lets see. I actually don't like flying on planes. I'm fine with Helicopters but I just don't like planes, weird eh?
