The next day I wake up late. After what happened at school and interrupting Rick's meeting my foster parents were pissed. I had my usual punishment with them but, I know how to handle that. Apparently, me trying to explain that I didn't ask the birds to recreate a scene from the movie Psycho and that it wasn't my fault didn't go very well with them. I am moving extra slow today and trying force some energy in me. I get dressed with the pain in my side increasing with each movement. Once I finish I breathe heavily as if I just ran a marathon. I can't even get dressed without going into cardiac arrest and now I have to walk to school. Great. 

By the time I finally get to school, which I had to stop multiple times, it was towards the end of second period. Not as late as I thought I would be. I get my stuff from my locker and see no point in going to class so I start walking to my third period. As I walk past a classroom an older man walks out running into me. My books fall to the ground and a hiss of pain escapes my lips but he just keeps walking in anger. I roll my eyes as I watch him walk away biting my tongue to not say anything. I am so done with today. I slowly bend down trying not to agitate the bruise I already have. After what feels like minutes I reach and start gathering my books and the few papers I had in stuffed in the. Two hands reach out to help me and when I look up to say thank you, my whole day just got worse. Scott. The universe can not give me a break.

"Thanks" I say reluctantly. I'm mad at him but I'm not an ass. I take my books from him and brace myself to get up without showing any pain. Scott reaches my arm and helps me up with a questioning look on his face. I roll my eyes hoping he knows he has no place to ask me anything and begin to walk away. I pass by Stiles, Allison, and Lydia with these dazed looks on their faces. Probably recalling yesterday. I start to speed up my walking but Allison calls for me and I stop. No clue why but I did. Maybe the problem isn't the universe and it's me. 

"Umm yeah?" I say quietly. Knowing what this is about I begin to feel angry.

"This might be personal-" she says looking at the floor but I cut her off.

"If it is then don't ask. We're not friends." I bite my lip at that, not expecting my own response, yet very proud of it. My life is none of her business. Any of theirs.

"Wait what happened?" Scott ask confused by what we're talking about.

"Nothing. It's none of your concern, any of yours." I specifically look at Allison. She is a complete stranger to me so who does she think she is to ask such a personal question. The bell rings and I turn away again to head to class.

"What happened to Lily and Dave?" Stiles ask quickly. They were my foster parents sophomore year, they were amazing. The only ones who ever made me feel like we could be a family. But, Dave got offered a job in Maine and they couldn't pass it up. They also couldn't take me, so I got switched to another home. It was a gut-wrenching day but, a good reminder. Life is not kind especially to people like me.

"Why do you care?" I snap back. It's been over a year why now.

"Andy." Scott gets the look on his face. The look he always use to use on me that got me to spill my guts. But, I avoid looking at him. That doesn't help, I can still feel his eyes on me. I roll my eyes but cave as he knew I would. 

Pathetic my brain tells me.

"Look they left and I got moved same thing that always happen. I'm going to go, because being in Math is better than talking to you guys." and without waiting for their response I walk away.

(A/N - Math is the absolute worst)

Fourth period rolls around and I make my way to the library to spend my study hall there. I sit at a table by myself and begin my homework. Two people join me at the table. It's the new kids-Aiden and Ethan. The two gorgeous looking twins who transferred here. Yeah, everyone at school is talking about them.
