Battle Of The Bitches. [5SOS]

Chapter 22

Payton's POV

I woke up to my alarm clock buzzing. I punched it then threw it to the ground. I got no sleep last night because Tyler had his music up way too loud. Sometimes I wish I was the one in a coma and not my mom.

I rolled out of bed and walked sluggishly to the bathroom. I stripped and took a cold shower. Wasn't feeling in the mood for a warm one.

I got out after washing and wrapped myself in a towel and walked to my closet. As I was walking out a door opened behind me. I gasped.

"Oh sorry." I heard an unpleasant voice. I turned around to see a smirking Tyler. I flipped him off.

"Get out!" I shout. I waited for the door to shut and locked it. I dressed myself in a oversized pink sweater and black leggings. I also wore my uggs. I dried my hair and tied it into a high pony tail.

When I was done I grabbed my bag and went downstairs. I shut off all the lights that Tyler left on and threw on my black coat. I went outside and locked the door behind me.

I walked to my new car and noticed Tyler sitting in the passenger seat. I rolled my eyes and got into the drivers.

"What are you doing? You have your own car." I state with an annoyed voice.

"Mine won't start."

"Of course it wont." I said. I started the car and backed out of the driveway. "How did you get in anyways? I locked my car."

"I'm not dumb. I know how to break into a car." He said it as it everyone knows.

"Right." I rolled my eyes. We sat in silence until we got to school. I parked at the closest parking spot and turned to get out.

"Wait." Tyler said stopping me. I glared at him.

"I won't tell anyone about your mom. I promise." He said and he had a sincere look on his face. I sighed.

"Thanks."

"Oh and sorry for walking in on you this morning." He smirked. It didn't take long for the real Tyler to come back.

I rolled my eyes and scoffed. I got out of the car slamming it behind me. What a tool.

I walked to mine and Mikey's locker and he was there with Alex. Great, my day couldn't get any better. (note the sarcasm.)

"Hey Payton. What's wrong?" Mikey said getting out of the way. I didn't answer and just put my bag and jacket away. "Payton."

"I'll talk to you later." I said to Michael and glanced at Alex. She just rolled her eyes. Of course Michael wouldn't see that though.

"Are you sure you are okay?" Luke asked me as we walked to lunch together.

"Yes." I lied. I hated lying to him. I didn't have a choice. If I told him about Tyler living with me for a week I would have to tell him about my mom.

"Promise?"

"Promise." I said and he took his arm away from my shoulder so we could sit down. Everyone was there. Mikey, Alex, Cal, Ash and Tyler.

We all ate in quiet besides a couple conversations between Ash and Cal. The group was so awkward since Alex came and Tyler just made it worse. I miss the old days when we would have little food fights and laugh.

"How do you feel about skipping the rest of the day with me? We can go back to mine and watch a movie." Luke whispered to me. I nodded. I didn't want to go to art with Alex and Tyler. That's the last thing I need.
