Protect Me

Freshman Encounters

I storm into my room, tears falling onto my cheeks. I'm so done with his shit!

"Are you alright?" Alice stands up from her bed.

"Yah, yah, my boyfriend is just being shit bag at the moment." I say.

"Oh, I'm going to go get some Tylenol or something from Rite Aid, so I'll be back later." She waves and grabs her purse.

Maybe I should do something to get my mind off him. Read? I don't wanna. Listen to music? no. I'll go to the green and play my guitar? No. why'd I even ask myself that. I didn't even want to bring my guitar here but my mother made me. Im never playing it again, it reminds me too much of my dad.

I plop on the bed and huff. I know, I'll go ask Jean. I get up and go next door. I knock and soon a black haired girl with tons of piercings and tattoos opens up the door. Her clothes are all black and there's lots of spikes. She looks like a member of Kiss.

"Can I help you?" she asks with attitude.

"Um. Im looking for Jean?" I say politely, waving off her sass.

"She went out."

"Where?"

"With a guy. I don't know where." She sounds irritated.

"I'm Parker" I hold put my hand for her to shake. She rolls her eyes and doesn't shake it.

"Can I get your name?" I ask.

"Steph." She says starting to close the door.

"I think that's a cool name. I had a pet canary named Steph." I hold the door with my hand.

"Ok. Great. I gotta go, Freshman."

"Are you a freshman?" I ask raising an eyebrow.

"Junior." she slams the door before I can ask anymore questions. Oh...

As I walk back to my bed, my phone rings and it's Harry.

"What?" I ask coldly into the phone.

"I'm sorry"

"What were you even doing with Kate?"

"We were, uh, studying. She really wants to get into Markenty." he stutters.

"It's too late, she has to apply next semester. And why are you studying with her, I thought she was a whore?"

"She asked."

"Can I kill myself?"

"What? No!"

"I asked."

"You're a pussy."

I laugh a little.

"I thought I was a overly attached girl who was full of herself and lived in LA?"

"I'm sorry, I was drinking, I didn't mean those things. Carly wants you to call her, she was moping around yesterday because you left without saying goodbye." he explains.

"I guess it's ok." I sigh "She was being a jerk to me."

"How?"

"She ditched me on my birthday, I confronted her about it, and she asked me for money for a condom! She then, got all up in our relationship business! And ignores me during lunch! She ditched me for Jake."

"She says she's sorry."

"She a bitch! No she's fucking not sorry!" I'm angry now.

"Um, she's right here." he clears his throat uncomfortably.

"Good. She needed to hear that." I say.

"I'm really sorry that I said those things, Parks, really."

"HARRY HAD SEX WITH KATE!" I hear in the background and all the blood drains from my face. He had sex with another girl, again?!

"What?" I say

"That was uh that was Carly, she's wasted." he says

"...At your house?"

"I had a party. no biggie."

"You're an ass."

"I didn't have sex with anyone!"

"YES HE DID, HE LOVES HER! HE ADMITTED IT DURING TRUTH IR DARE!" I hear again.

I'm silent.

I can't take it anymore.

"Parks, that's not true, I didn't even play the game."

"When a persons' drunk, they say everything." I say through clenched teeth.

"Not always."

"I'm done." I hang up and stare into space.

I hate him.

He keeps doing this to me.

Why is he messing with my head?

Ugh!
