The Last Night

The Last Night chapter 3

Hello Fellow Wattlings! This is Jade speaking! So I am so so so sorry for not updating, but I am, as I said, busy with my senior trip, senior prom and graduation coming up! Just to clear it up, I am NOT a senior in highschool, though I wish I was. It's called the senior prom, and senior trip because, my grade is the oldest in our school, so we are considered seniors. I am only a 13 year old in 7nth grade. Okay, I'll stop blabbing so you can enjoy the chapter. R&R and be sure to become a fan!

Chapter 3: Accident  

I stared out the window as the clouds rolled in. Light rain tapped the window.

The cold air once again wrapped around me as it entered from the opening under the window.

Once again, I welcomed it. Something about the cold soothed me. It felt like, I was in my mom's arms again, right before she died.

A small, sad smile found it's way onto my face as memories flashed into my mind, like a slide show.

Shaking them out, I tried to pay attention to Mr. Green's lesson.  

But, I soon realized I already learned this and my mind wondered away.

Thoughts of my mom left my mind and in entered thoughts about Carl. He was my dad, but I didn't think he deserved to be called my dad after what he did.

I really hated him with all my heart. No ounce of love was left in my heart for him.  

The place where there was once love for him, was replaced by hate.

I wasn't that naive little fool I once used to be. He couldn't get to me now. I learned how to deal with people like him. I wasn't going to allow myself to be hurt once again because I was too naive to realize when someone was playing with me.

My focus and my mind was so far into my thoughts that I was surprised and shocked when the bell rang, signaling lunch.

Getting up, I grabbed my books and was about to leave when Mr. Green called me. " Ms. Karter, I need to talk to you." He said.

Re Entering the cold classroom, I walked over to Mr. Green's desk.

He stared at me from under his gold rimmed glasses and looked at me with nothing but kindness in his brown eyes.

After I saw that, I knew he wanted to talk to me about something dealing with my mom and Carl. I avoided his gaze and let it wander outside, where the drizzling was now full out raining.

Mr. Green cleared his throat and started to talk, I was still staring at the rain.

"Lexi, I know what happened to you was really tragic and I understand, after all your dad-"

"Carl, not my dad" I cut him off with the tears threatening to come out.

He looked at me sadly. Then continued, "Carl was my best friend since we were in third grade and I was devastated when I found out what he did. After all your mom was a wonderful woman, but don't think I haven't noticed your mind wondering off during class, and even though you have straight A's, you know you could come talk to me about anything. I also know that you'd rather not, since I am your teacher, but the offer stands. You could also talk to Annalyne if you want, she was closer to your mom and adores you." He finished

I nodded with tears I kept in, blurring my eye sight, I was really greatful. " Thank you Mr. Green, it really means alot" I spoke out, silently.

He smiled at me sadly and motioned towards the door. "Go ahead"

Nodding once again, I ran out of there and into the girls bathroom.

I locked myself into the stall and let the tears that I kept in since this morning come out. The salty liquid warmed my cool cheeks.
