Insecure

Back to school

Miss You More - Katy Perry

"You're going to late to school babygirl." A voice whispers against my neck as I feel arms wrap around me and something hard against my back.

"Get the fuck off me Michael." I whisper shout as I jump out of bed afraid that Vanessa would hear.

"You don't have to be quite, Vanessa left for work an hour ago." Michael informs me with a smirk as he walks over to me. "I miss you Sara." He says cupping my face.

"Why don't you go tell that to your wife." I sneer causing him to tighten his grasp on my arm.

That's going to leave a mark.

"I'd watch how you speak to me dear sister." He seethes, my phone begins to ring and he releases his hold on me. "We aren't done, you know that and I know that." He says before kissing me on the neck and striding out of my room.

"Hey Emily." I answer the phone shaking.

"Sara what's wrong babe?" Emily's voice sounds through the receiver.

"It's nothing." I say dismissing her.

"Don't you dare lie to me, it was that asshole Michael wasn't it?" She spits and is met with silence. "I thought so. Get dressed, I'll be there in 5." She hangs up before I could protest.

Sighing I walk into my closet and grab my uniform for the first day of school. They are pretty relaxed as long as you wear the plaid skirt and school polo or sweater which is great for me. Even in the mid August heat of Northern California I prefer wearing leggings under my skirt and the school sweater over my polo. After lacing up my combat boots I walk into my bathroom and brush my hair before pulling it out of my face.

I should of locked the door last night, this is supposed to be my area. 

My safe place.

Who am I kidding though? Michael's picked the lock before he'd do it again.

After applying some chapstick I decide against mascara, I'd just cry it off anyways. My eyes are still a deep blue from last night, they tend to lighten the happier I am but lately they are just dark and dull.

Just like me.

Emily's horn sounds from the driveway so I grab my bag and brace myself for whatever Michael has to say as I walk into the living room.

"You know, you might make more friends if you show some skin babygirl." He purrs causing me to gag mentally.

"Friends like you?" I challenge and immediately regret it as I feel the red hot sting of Michael's hand.

"I want you home right after school, do you understand me? Vanessa will be working late and I need a little...... Company." Michael whispers in a seductive voice that used to leave me begging on my knees.

Now it just makes me want to die.

"Yes sir." I mumble.

"Good girl." He says with a sticky sweet smile, the kind you can't wash off of you no matter how hard you try. I jump as Emily sounds her horn again, Michael chuckles and walks into the kitchen as I walk out of the house and climb into her SUV. 

"What took you so long?" Emily says with her voice full of concern as I'm silently thanking God that he hit my right side and not my left. 

"I couldn't find my boots." I mutter as Emily pulls away from the driveway. "Why did you get me so early anyways? We don't have to be at school for 45 minutes." I question.

"I'm hungry and my mom tried to stuff some paleo shit down my throat plus I wanted you to get away from that asshole." Emily rants as she pulls into the coffee shop. She jumps out of the car and glares at me to follow her as I roll my eyes and slide out. Emily links our arms together as we walk into the small coffee shop. "What do you want?" She asks as we look up to the menu.

"Just some black coffee." I reply.

"You need to eat Sara, and don't you dare give me that shit about calories and fat. It's our first day of senior year and you need your energy." She says huffing.

"Fine, get me a bran muffin." I shrug and she rolls her eyes.

"Go get us a seat, I've got it this time." She says and I nod before walking back into the corner of the coffee shop and sliding into a booth.

"Miss Andrews?" A handsome older man asks.

"Hi Principal Johnson! how was your summer?"

"It was great, my children are sick of me by now I'm sure though." He says with a friendly smile. "I actually need to talk to you, Miss Green has to move across country over the summer. She was hoping you would stay on to T.A for her replacement." He explains and my face drops.

Miss Green was my favorite teacher, the only adult I had to confide in.

"That's fine." I assure him knowing that if I drop the T.A period I would have to take P.E again and after last year that was NOT happening.

"Hi Principal Johnson." Emily purrs as she sets our tray down. 

"Hello, I'll see you ladies at school." He says quickly before leaving.

"Why do you always do that to him Em?" I say rolling my eyes.

"Because he's hot as fuck." She replies shrugging.

"Yea and like 40 years older then you with kids and a wife." I point out.

"Details schmetails." Emily replies waving her hand at me, she pauses and her eyes narrow. "What the fuck did he do to you?" She spits.

Shit, she saw the mark.

"I deserved it Em, I said something I shouldn't-

"Stop that right now Sara Clementine Andrews." She snaps. "You never ever deserve to be hit, especially by that asshole." She adds firmly. "Why do you stay with them Sara? You're 18 and have your inheritance."

"I don't get it until I graduate, the accident set me back a year remember?"

Emily's eyes flash with sadness as she remember. "I'm sorry Sara. At least you get to graduate with me though right?"

"You're the only thing good in my life right now Em, I don't know what I'd do without you." I confess and she smiles brightly. "I'd do anything for you."

"Anything?" She challenges and I nod cautiously. 

"Drink the fattening mocha I got you and eat that bagel and cream cheese."

"I hate you." I mumble.

"You love the fuck out of me, be real." She replies smirking. "Look at me Sara, You are so beautiful. You don't deserve the card you've been dealt and you certainly don't need Michael." She says as she gazes into my eyes.

She's wrong though, I deserve everything.
