Chapter 5

*Brae POV*

BEEP BEEP BEEP

"shut up!" i screamed at my bloody alarm, opening my eyes, to see the time. It's time to get up and get ready for school. I trudge my way to my bathroom which is mine and only mine. My brothers won't be home until 10:00am so I have no way to get to school.... unless? nope can't do that, i would take my Kia Sorento, but then people would get suspicious as to why i have a very expensive car. I can just call Andy.
I decided to phone Andy to come and pick me up. He picked at in the 2nd ring.
"Morning Brae, you ok? " Andy greeted, "Morning, in fine but I was wondering if you can give me a lift to school?" I asked in a sickly sweet tone, "yea sure, what time? " he agreed, "em about 45 mins from now",, "ok I will see you then" and then he hung up.

I hopped in the shower and washed my body and hair,
I got out the shower and went to my closet. My brothers aren't here and I doubt that they would be going to school, so I can wear what I want. I decided on: a black, loose crop top with 'I don't give a FUCK' on it in bold letters. Black ripped skinny jeans and a black hoodie. For my hair i straightened it and left it down, put a pink flower crown on my head. I put mascara and concealer, I really couldn't be bothered this morning.
I put my Black Doc Martins on and picked up my book bag. I made my way down stairs to get some breakfast.

I ate my breakfast and brushed my teeth. Just when I finished, the door bell rang. "Hey Andy" I gave him a hug and grabbed my bag. "How come your brothers couldn't take you?" He questioned "they went away for the and will be back at 10" I replied with a shrug. We got in the car and Andy took off, I put on the radio and Payphone by Maroon 5 came on, we sung the whole song and by the time the song was done we were in the school parking lot. This song was Mine and Andy's, we would always sing it when it came on.
"A lot Brae have a good day and don't get into trouble"
I turned to him with a look of mischief "oh when do I ever get into trouble" we chuckled and he kissed me on the cheek and I got out, waving goodbye he drove off.
I took a deep breath and turned around, Looking at school. "Hey Brae!!" Emily screamed from across the parking lot, "Hey Emily, how are you?" I said once she was over here "ergh the usual, can't be arsed" Emily replied with a 'seriously don't want to be here' face, I chuckled "if my brothers ask, you were at mine last night" I said trying not to get into trouble "why?" She asked with a look of confusion. "Because my brothers aren't in town and I wanted the house to my self but they wouldn't let me so I told them that you were coming over and they seemed to agree to that" I lied hoping she wouldn't suspect "ok your secret is safe with me.... wanna head in?" She replied ! Whoo she didn't suspect. I nodded my head and we headed in to Hell.
We met up with Ryan and Harper like we usually do in the mornings. I had 1st, 2nd and 3rd with Emily and the twins, 4th & 5th with Ryan and 6th & 7th with Harper then I have a free period.

*15 minute interval*

I headed to my locker to change my books, when i got around the corner from my locker. Blair, Ethan & Carson - the Schools bad boys - were leaning against my locker. I walked over and they moved so I could get in, Blair leaned against the locker next to mine and looked at me. I glanced at him and he was still looking at me "is there a reason why you are looking at me?" I asked barely more than a whisper, "yeah, who are you?" He asked, his so-sexy voice quite loud but not loud enough to attract attention. Carson & Ethan were standing behind me, I was trapped. "I'm Brae, why?" I asked with an eyebrow raised, "oh right, we saw you yesterday at Break" he answered, my eyes widened. "o-ok c-cool well I b-better be .... em g-going" I stuttered and turned around and left.
I walked to the bathroom, and stood in front of the mirror. I looked at the girl in front of me, she looked lifeless, her normal ocean-blue eyes looked dead and cold, Even her hair looked dull. "God I look horrible" I said as the door was opening, "your right, you look uglier than usual" Bridget purred, her minions laughed. "Where is my man?" She asked in a demanding tone "h-he is o-out of t-town and w-won't be b-back 'til l-later" I stuttered
out in a soft and quiet tone.
"Aww is poor, slutty sad because she finally realised that no one actually cares, and everyone one has left you like your own whorey parents, like seriously, your mother had 12 kids before you killed her" she spat, my eyes teared when she said the last part.
Ugh I hate her. I killed my parents, if i hadn't distracted my dad, they would still be alive, I should be dead not them.
I rushed out the bathroom with tears running down my face, I heard heavy foot steps behind me, I called Andy and asked him to pick me up. "A-A-Andy c-c-can you p-p-pick me u-up" I croaked out, "princess what's wrong?" He said, clearly worried, "n-nothing. J-j-just p-please p-pick me up" I croaked "I will be 2 minutes Princess" he said I could hear the car starting in the back ground. I ended the call and stopped at the parking lot, I dropped to knees and let out all the bottled up feelings. I felt a strong pair of arms wrap around me and looked up, I cried even more. Blair, Ethan & Carson, followed me out here. "What's wrong Brae?" Blair questioned "nothing. It's nothing" I croaked out and I heard the screeching of wheels stop in front of me, the car door opened and slammed shut and I immediately knew it was Andy.

I was passed over to Andy "Sssshhh Princess, sssshhh what's wrong?" He whispered in my ear, I wrapped my arms around his neck and cried "i-i-it's a-all m-my f-f-fault" I stuttered, I was still hugging him "what's your fault Brae?" He asked, clearly confused, "t-the c-c-crash, t-their d-d-death, i-if i-it w-wasn't for m-me , my -mum and d-dad w-would still be alive" I croaked, he tightened the hug and rubbed circles on my back, "it wasn't your fault, you didn't cause it-" he was cut off by me "Yes! It was! if I didn't distract Dad then we wouldn't have flipped over that stupid car, and they still would be alive! I should of died not them, they didn't deserve it" I shouted. "Don't raise your voice at me! It wasn't! Don't say that, You shouldn't of been the one to die! end of discussion, we will talk with he rest but we need to get you home- ok?" I nodded my head.
He picked me up, I wrapped my legs around his waist and hugged him closer as he walked back to the car, he placed me in the front seat and ran around to his side and we took off .

I'm so lucky to have such good family. I miss my parents so much.
