The rest of the school day was normal so far,aside from what happened at the shed at school. You still tried to hide the bruise that formed from the slap, other than that you were alright. You still have no clue what to write for sixth period. All you could do in that period was sit and stare at the blank piece of paper. You doodled the whole period as you got looks from Michelle, the devilish kind. You just blocked it off by looking away from her. The little jingle came from the intercom, class was over. You packed up all of your stuff and left the class, with a good-bye wave to Mrs. Thompson. You left out of the door, and started walking down the hall, putting one earbud into your ear and walked on. You listened to a song called Demons. You connect with this song easily, sometimes you do feel like your own enemy,and you need someone to make everything okay, and take the pain caused by Gilbert away.

You were just about to leave through the gates of the school, but then,you were stopped. You flinched at the hand that softly, but firmly grabbed your arm. You looked at the hand and made your way up to the owner's face. Gilbert. You looked at him with slightly scared eyes. The song still played on, "Save me,if I become my demons..." It played. This sunk into your mind. Gilbert looked at you, looking sad and angry all at once. There was a battle over how he feels in his own mind. But, you started to get mad. The lyrics of the song were explaining you, "Don't let me go,I need a savior." The lyrics spoke to you. You felt like you were going to go crazy and attack Gilbert, but you also feel like you need him to hold on to you and say what he had to say,as if what he would say is going to fix this whole mess.

"(Y/N)-" Gilbert spoke.You were still thinking of all of the things that he did to hurt you.It all built up into a new courage that you never knew you had.

"No...I don't need any more words to hurt me,anymore.I never did...", you reply.

Gilbert slightly gasped as how you spoke back to him. "You hear me?I don't need anymore bullshit!"  You yell as you forcefully remove your arm from Gilbert's grasp.

"Hey! You little brat! I wanted to apologize!", He said as he slightly raised his voice at you.

You gasp in disbelief. Did he really apologize to you? "I know that what I did was-" He spoke, but was then interrupted by Michelle. She clung onto Gilbert's arm. 

"Baby! Thanks for waiting for me! Let's go", the female cheered, then looked over to you. 

"Oh,were you teaching the little jerk a lesson? Go ahead Gil!" She said happily as she stared daggers into your soul.

Gilbert looked down,"Forget it, I won't waste time with this bitch..." He said as he walked away from the scene.

You just stood in confusion and shock. He walked away with Michelle latched onto his arm. You felt tears threatening to fall ,but held them in as you placed both earbuds into your ear,and ran your way home.


Your POV
What just happened? Gilbert apologizes, then calls me a bitch? 

Was he just pretending to be rude to me just because Michelle was there? Was it all a plan to get under my skin? There are only two people who would really know, Alfred and Mathias. But, I don't have their numbers, or where they live, so I just have to wait until tomorrow. All I could do now is have the ghost of the thought haunt me for the rest of the day. I saw my house. And...a moving van? It was parked in the neighbor's house. But nobody lived there...until now...

Third Person POV
You took a good look at the house as you walked to yours. "Hey!You there!" A female voice yelled. 

You looked at the porch of the house and saw a girl with dirty blonde hair and green eyes, leaning on the rails of the wooden porch. You looked around you, not seeing anyone else, you looked back at her.
