Chapter 16- its time

*the day*

Emily's POV:

I look at myself in the mirror for the hundredth time this morning before i have to leave

My hands are shaking and my palms are sweating

Just then i get a message

Zachary❤️: i know you are nervous. You'll do great i promise you!❤️ love you!

Me: Yes i am. A lot. But you made me feel better!  Thanks babe. Ilyt❤️

After that i turned off my phone. My hands are shaking less now. Its weird how one person can have that effect on you. Zach makes me feel like everything will be ok, and with him i feel safe

I get another text
Mrs Susan: they are in the library and very confused! Im waiting! So excited

Me: im coming only 2 minutes away!

"Its time" i sigh and leave my house

Im clutching the box with the charms in it so hard it might break

I reach into the school and see no one. Everyones in class

I look around and see my old locker

Dejavu hits me like a train. I brush my finger across the locker. Its different. Its newly painted and has a bunch of stickers on it. A freshman has it for sure

I bring my self to my senses and slowly walk to the library my best friends are in

I hear Mrs Susan's voice muffled. She must be talking about history.

I knock on the door "come in!" I hear Mrs Susan shout

I open the door and look inside "Am i bothering?" I asked and smiled

I looked at all my friends. I cant believe im seeing them again after almost two years. Lena has blue tips in her hair but other than that everyones the same

"Hi Emily!" Mrs Susan smirked

All of them had they're face covered with shock

Bailee and lena started tearing up
They got up and ran to me knocking us down in our hug

Im giggling but with tears in my eyes

I can hear them sobbing and clinging on to me for life

"Emily! I cant believe it" i hear lena's muffled voice

"Oh my god i missed you" bailee cried letting go of me

Lena soon after let go and i saw josh and alex with teary eyes and a small smile on they're lips

They got up and hugged me tight
"We were so worried when you left" Alex said

After a bit we all sat down
"Now feel free to ask me questions. But first i think i owe you guys an explanation" i said taking a deep breath

They all mumbled an 'mhm'

"So the reason i left was because i couldn't take it anymore. I never told any of you. Only Mrs S. but, at home my mum was always drunk and she would beat me. And that day i was so upset about the history test that i failed, everything was stressing me out. I felt like a failure" i stopped and chocked back my tears
"And i had gone later to the bakery next to our school to clear my mind. And thats where i saw Josh and Alex. I didnt want them to see my bruises and stuff but they did, and from that day i knew i had to do something or else i didnt know what i would to do. And im Sorry for not keeping in touch with any of you. But i wanted a full fresh start and to get my things straight" i finished
