                   ~Jessica~
As loud rings come from my alarm I wake up, I try shutting it off from my position on the bed. I scream into my pillow and it makes a muffled yell, slowly getting up I drag myself to my bathroom. As I step out of the shower I hear my mom.

"JESSICA" she yells ,and it makes me jump.

"YES"I yell back while sticking my head outside the bathroom door.

"JUST MAKING SURE YOU WERE UP" she yells one last time.

I run to my bedroom to get ready for school. I wrap the towel around my hair while I start on my makeup. I walk over to my closet and grab my black long sleeve shirt ,and maroon skirt. I tucked the shirt into the skirt and grabbed my watch. I brush my hair and kept it down. I put on black slip on heels to go with it.

As I grab my bookbag I hear the doorbell ring. As always Charlotte was here at 7:45am evey morning. I run down the stairs and open the door.

"Hello Jessica!!" Charlotte says with a happy tone.

"Morning" I say blankly.

We get into the car and drive. We pull into the schools parking lot and wave Charlotte's dad goodbye.

"What happened" Charlotte said turning to me.

"He hit me in my chest Char, he gets more violent every time. I don't feel safe in MY OWN HOME!" I say while tears start filling my eyes.

"Don't cry Jessica!, I'll ask my mom if you can stay the rest of the week, okay??" Charlotte says with a soft voice.

"Okay" I whisper.

The bell rings meaning I have to go make my way to first hour.
I walk through the door and see Mr.Walker and he gives me a small smile while turning back to the board.

Class is almost over and I see Josh out of the corner of my eye looking at me.

"Can I help you?"I whisper

"Sure sweetheart, I dropped my pencil under your desk, could you grab it??" He whispers.

I nudge the pencil closer to his desk and he gives me a small wink.

"I said grab it??" He says while looking at the pencil.

"I'm not dumb, I'm in a skirt I know your tricks" I say and give him a glare.

"Whatever" He whispers.

Class is over and as I begin to walk out I hear my name.

"Jessica"

I turn around slowly and see Mr.Walker.

"Yes?" I say loud enough for him to hear.

"Your paper, I graded it" He says while walking over to me.

"Ohh thanks" I say in a low voice close to a whisper while taking the paper.

I begin to walk away and again I hear my voice.

"Ohh and Jessica!" He says from across the class.

"Yes Mr.Walker?" I say while looking at my shoes.

"Dinner was amazing" He said almost in a whisper.

"Thanks" I say again before making my way towards my next class.
