            Nicole's POV
   Raelee throws a book at me from my bookshelves, making me throw my arms up in front of my face to block it. The roads got flooded, making school get canceled, but somehow she finds a way to get here.
     "You look pale," she points out. That happens when I haven't slept, my coloring drains. "Are you feeling okay?" She asks. I shrug my bony shoulders.
    I'm far from okay. I'm tired, but can't sleep. Hungry, but refuse to let myself eat. Depressed, but can't show it. I'm hurting. "I'm great," I lie. She seems to take this as the truth. "Just really tired." Tried of this whole situation.
     My bed room door opens, making me stand out of fear. My mom comes in, closing the door behind her. I sit back down as she does. "What are you girlies talking about?" She asks Raelee and I.
   "Boys," Raelee answers. My moms the kind that's more a friend than a mom at the right times. She wiggles her eyebrows at us. "My boyfriend and I have been together for a year now."
    "Awe, Luke's a cute kid. He better keep at being good to you, if not leave that son of a bitch," she says. I want to roll my eyes. I guess it's bad when your husbands good to you only, but when he's mistreating your daughter that's okay.
     "He is," Raelee replies, giving a wide smile. They both look at me.
    "What?" I ask, pulling at my sleeves.
    "Do you have anyone you like?" My mom asks, poking my shoulder. I shake my head. Raelee groans and flops onto her back.
    "What about girls?" She asks. Again, I shake my head. "There's seriously no one? No one you think is attractive?" She asks. I shrug. "Momma, there's this boy at our school that's sexy as hell,  but he's such a stand off. She doesn't even give him a glance."
     "Is this boy-" she nods. "Stay away from him. Its a small town, he's bad news. You girls don't need to get involved with that. Especially you, sweetheart. Promise you two are going to stay away from that boy?"
    Raelee looks at me from the corner of her eye. Her face as that evil smirk on her face that says even if she does agree, shell still do it. "We promise," we both say. My mom nods her head suspiciously.
     Raelee gets up, her blond hair moving to her back. "Well, I'm gonna go cause a little trouble," Raelee says, winking back at us. 

"How do you think that's possible? The streets are flooded," my mom says. Raelee shrugs, not caring for what my mom has to say. My mom turns her attention back to me. "Your father might not be coming home tonight due to the streets. It'll just be you and , we could watch Magic Mike," she says. I can't help but cringe at the movie suggestion. I'm no prude, but that just shouldn't be movie.
      "No mom, gross," I say. Her eyes drop down to.my sleeves. "Its raining. I'm okay mom." She sighs, closing her hazel eyes.
    "I'm just making sure," she says. I look down at my hands. "But I do know that something not okay." Tears threaten to escape.
    "Let's just say that if I were to die right now, I'd be very happy."

               Alec's POV
    Daisey puts the boa around my neck, its pink and the feathers are getting in my mouth. She sits down at the tiny table, my knees are technically to my chest. "Would you like some more tea?" She asks in a fake British accent.
    "Yes please," I say in the same voice. She giggles and pours fake tea into the small tea cup. I press my lips to the rim, pretending to drink it.
    "PINKY UP!" She yells at me. I do as told. She gives me a sweet smile. "So, how was school?" I ask.
    "Horrible. My boyfriend cheated on me," she says. I chock on nothing as if the tea is real.
    "What boyfriend?" I demand. She shrugs. "Listen, boys are dirt. None of them are good. Your too good special and pretty for them. No one will ever be good enough for you," I say. "No boyfriends," I mumble.    
      "Thank you for playing with me," she says.
     "Anytime."
