Gabriella's POV~
I woke up from the horrid nightmare, the flash backs from when I was little kept repeating itself night after night. Like I played a big part in it, but I did, I could have helped, but what could I have done? I was only little, and had no idea what was going on. Biting on my bottom lip, I tried my best to hold back the tears that were willing to spill. Knowing if I cried something would go terribly wrong. But not this time, I'm not strong enough to fight it, I can't take it anymore. I've lived like this for years on end, putting up with my fathers shit. I need to get away, anywhere but here would be great.
The beaming light rays of sun shined through the blue curtains of my room. Making my room bright, squinting my eyes I slowly rose from my bed. Pulling off the sheets walking towards my mirror, looking at myself I stared. My brown hair was a mess, around my eyes it was slightly puffy and red, probably from crying in my sleep. I can't control them anymore, my dreams are becoming reality and I can't take it. Every dream, I've ever dreamt are like thousands of memories escaping, wondering the world on its own and haunting me, every night.
I wiped my eyes with the palms of my hands, making sure the sticky texture from dry tears went away. It was a Friday morning, a school day. Normally I just go when I feel like it but I'm meant to come everyday, huh, no. People at my school could care less about me, I'm alone. I'm use to it though, I kind of like it. I get to wonder things and don't have to worry about anyone worrying about me. My thoughts escape and erase my mind when I listen to music, its my only cure. But everything comes shooting back when my music stops.
I quickly got dressed in a pair of ripped black sweat pants. Placing on an over sized grey sweater. Grabbing my hair brush and rushing it through my hair, then continuing to get ready slipping on my black boots. Holding my back pack on one shoulder I literally ran down the corridor and avoided my dad. Quietly shutting the door, trying my best not to wake him. He hates it and would probably yell and physically abuse me, something I don't want to happen.
I walked down the streets, looking at my surrounds. It was quite and cloudy, the sun had gone behind the clouds. It being spring it was quite warm but cool and breezy at the same time. Just the weather I liked. I walked through the school gates and made my way to my locker, the floor squeaked against the rubber of my shoes, nearly making me trip. I heard a pit of laughter coming from behind I turned my head and looked back, seeing who had been laughing, of course it was him.
"Look who decided to show up to school today, what are you wearing? looks like you got attacked by a lion" Ignoring the sound of Josh, the high schools stuck up senior who picks on anyone anywhere.
You see, at school it's like I'm invisible, like everyone see's straight through me. Teachers don't even make an effort. Why do I even bother? Coming to school is just a waste of time, well... It's better than being a home any day. Most days of school consist of the same things, getting laughed and judged at, picked on. I try and brush it off but then I think, is the things they say true?
I skipped going to my locker to dodge any further events with people, making my way straight to my homeroom. Sitting down on a chair, I waited for the bell keeping an eye on the clock waiting for the bell to ring. Soon enough it did, walking towards Maths I prepared myself for a lesson of no social or communication whatsoever. Before I knew it, lunch had arrived. Walking down the white long halls of the school I founds a spot on the oval, placing my back pack on the ground I sat on the green grass. Getting out my iPod, I plugged in my ear phones. Pressing play on the song it was last on.
'Cause it too cold for you here, and I now let you hold both your hands in the holes of my sweater'
The song played, I can't imagine anyone as perfect as him, his voice is amazing, angelic and soft. Wonder who I'm talking about? None other than Shawn Mendes, maybe it's not his song, but his voice makes it even better than the original.
Well...
The Magcon boys, where do I start?
I first discovered them when I was on YouTube, I had looked under most popular and a video of Say Something cover by Shawn had over one million views, it was crazy so I had to look more into him, and the Magcon boys in general. But who am I kidding, I'm not gonna meet them! I can't, and I won't...
I yawned from the amount of sleep I didn't get, thinking about going to sleep makes me scared, the nightmares just won't leave me alone. I ignored the thoughts and carried on listening to my music and silently singing along. Looking through the pictures I had saved on my iPod. I've finally found something to keep me happy after all these years, something to actually make me smile and 9 people have continued to do this for a short period of time, why couldn't I have known about them earlier, they've been a huge help and part of my life. Only thing is.. I have to watch them on a screen.
Lunch finished up as students rushed around to get to their next class on time. Standing up I slowly gathered my things and started walking.
tick tock
There was one minute left until the bell for home went. Everyone stood around and talked to friends, I looked quickly around the room, hoping to be the first out to avoid crashing into people. Slowly walking to the door, the bell rang. Pacing fast I didn't look down, dodging the people as I made it out the school gates, preparing myself to walk home. Walking home is great exercise, considering I hate P.E it takes a while though, I don't mind as long as I have my music to keep me occupied. Looking at my feet I saw something white appear on the floor, it looked like a ticket or something, picking it up I took a closer look before thinking.
What's this?
