I'm shocked. I don't say anything.
"How?"
"Car crash."
"She's been in a car crash before and she was fine."
"That was an accident."
"You mean she done it on purpose?"
"Yes. She sent me this before it happened." Joe hands me his phone.
'Hello Joe. I haven't been speaking to you or Mia and I feel bad about that. I've just been trying to enjoy my time here. Some money is being dropped off tonight at my house. This is as I won't be coming back home. You take care of my Mia okay. Tell her how much she means to you,and me. She means so much to me,more than you realise. More than she knows. I'm such a crappy mum but I have to do this. Bye Joe,also,I'm taking the SIM card out so whatever you say I won't see.'
I cry and storm off to my room.
It's all my fault. I remember that I'm going to FaceTime Charlie.
He picks up.
"Charlie." I say,crying.
"What's happened?" My mum got in a car crash. She did before but she was fine but she meant to do it. It's all my fault."
"It's not your fault."
"It is it is it is IT FUCKING IS."
"Mia trust me."
"You told your friends we had sex didn't you?"
"No."
"Charlie...."
"I didn't okay."
I roll my eyes.
"I didn't mean to tell them Mia. I'm happy."
"Your happy because we had sex.... I'm nothing then."
"I'm happy I'm with you."
"You are?"
"Yes."
"But I'm a mess."
"Doesn't mean that I don't love you,also at school tomorrow, I won't ignore you. Promise."
The rest of my Sunday goes really fast. Before I know it I'm packing my bag for school. I've got double English,double art and French.
Joe drives me too school. I walk into tutor,no ones here. I'm early.
I hear someone. They walk into the classroom. It's this girl,tall and skinny,with brown hair.
"Hello."
"Hi." She throws a book at me.
"Wow I've just met you and your already a fucking bitch."
"What's your problem Mia?"
"I don't have a problem. I don't understand why your throwing books at me. I'm sorry for calling you names okay. I've had a crap weekend."
"About your weekend,stay away from my brother."
"Who's your brother?"
"Your boyfriend,I'm his younger sister."
We both don't say anything,Charlie walks in.
"Sophie I hope your being nice."
"Fuck off." She says to him and walks off.
