It's a few days later and Jude's going back to school today. We're all walking to school, Jesus, Mariana, and Jude in the front while me and Brandon walk a few feet behind. Brandon grabs my hand and kisses my cheek so no one would see. Whenever I'm with him I get this feeling that I can't even explain. Whenever I see him I can't help smiling. When he holds my hand my heart pounds. When he tells me he loves me I can't even describe my feelings because no one other than my mom and Jude has ever told me that; I don't even remember my father saying he loves me. When Brandon smiles at me the whole world stops for a moment. His smile is one of the best things about him l, especially when I'm the reason he smiles.
We arrive at school and when he lets go of my hand I automatically feel cold. Jesus and Mariana ditch us for their friends and I wish Jude good luck and sigh as I watch him slowly walk away. Leaving him is so hard now because whenever he's not by my side I feel like something happened to him.
"You ok, Cal?"
"No," I say still looking at Jude as he turns the corner and disappears, "any time I'm not with him he could be getting hurt. Whether he's being beat by my old foster brothers, by my old foster dad, or by bullies-"
"He's safe," Brandon cuts me off, "I promise. Lena won't let anything happen to him, she makes sure he's safe here."
I look up at him and smile sadly. He makes sure no one's looking and kisses the top of my head. I love having him. I need him in my life, he's been there for me since the day we met. He didn't call me a freak or get scared of my scars and walk away, instead he stayed and he's the only reason I'm still alive today.
***************************
The day was long and boring, like any other day at school. The best part was walking home, the only time I got to see Jude. Me and Brandon walked behind everyone like always and we held hands the whole way home.
Brandon's now at his friends house doing homework while the rest of us sit in our rooms writing random things down on paper that are probably wrong anyway. I finally finish math and take out my Spanish binder. Spanish is fun I guess, maybe just because I find it easy, but it definitely beats math.
I scribble down my answers and get done within 10 minutes. I'm about to pull out my science when my phone goes off and seeing that it's a text from Brandon, I stop what I'm doing just to read it.
My heart aches when I read the text. My eyes fill with tears and I drop my back pack on the floor making a loud bump. Mariana asks what's wrong but I can't seem to find the words.
I can't do this anymore. I'm really sorry. I still
have feelings for Talya. It's over Callie.
