Miracle

~Ashley's POV~

"ASH GET UP!" My mom screams. My eyes open and I sigh. Another day at school. Another day getting harassed. I slowly get out of bed and shower. I straighten my long blonde hair and throw on a 5sos sweater and some skinny jeans along with my favorite red vans. I make sure my cuts are hidden. Yes, I self harm, you would understand if you were me. I eat breakfast and walk to hell, aka high school. As I'm walking I hear a car behind me. I keep walking and ignore it. The car pulls up next to me and the person rolls down the window. It's my biggest bully, Jace. He chuckles and looks at his girlfriend, Amanda. She snarls and he looks back at me.

"Hey bitch, get out of the road." Amanda barks.

"I'd rather die." I say and keep walking. Jace follows me and I hear Amanda again.

"Why don't you just go home and cut deeper. Just kill yourself."

"I'm trying." I mumble and walk. I'm relieved when they just drive past me. I get to school and the morning classes go by pretty fast. I'm on my way to lunch when I bump into somebody and drop all my books.

"What the fuck!" I say and bend down. He stops me and picks up my books.

"Nice sweater." The guy says. He has an Australian accent which reminds me of someone. I look at his face and almost collapse.

"You're. You're. You're luke hemmings" I say. He nods and bites his lip ring.

"I'm going to school here now. I've gotten mobbed already so now that I've met everyone the screaming and Fangirling is out of their systems. Thank god." He smiles.

"Well, I'm thrilled, but you should probably go. You wouldn't want to get caught talking to a loser like me. I'm Ashley though." I say but he frowns.

"There's no way you're a loser." He says. I roll my eyes and walk away. He follows me and grabs my arm.

"Where do you and your friends sit?" He asks.

"I don't have friends." I say. He sighs and walks away. I knew he just wanted to be friends with someone 'popular'. I don't get lunch and just sit in the hallway at my usual spot. Luke sits next to me and I'm surprised.

"What are you doing? This is social suicide." I say. He just laughs and takes out his phone.

"You're gonna get embarrassed." I say. He doesn't answer. I sigh and stare at the wall.

"Hungry?" He asks. I shake my head and look down. I haven't eaten in a couple weeks, besides a few pieces of toast.

"You should eat." He says. I shake my head again. We sit there in silence for a while. Lunch finally ends and I go to Spanish. The rest of the day goes by really fast. I'm at my locker when a group of girls comes up to me. It's Amanda and her friends. I scoff and zip up my backpack.

"So Luke was sitting by you at lunch in your usual spot." She says. I nod and turn towards her.

"Why does it matter?" I ask. She laughs and her face turns angry.

"Stay the hell away from him." She says. "Or else."

"What? You gonna tell me to cut deeper? Tell me to kill myself? I've heard it all before." I say and walk away.

"Don't walk away from me!" She yells and follows me. I get outside and walk to the back of the school where the path to my house is.

"BITCH GET OVER HERE." She screams.

"What the fuck do you want?" I ask and stop in my tracks. She turns me around and punches me in the nose. I gasp and feel blood trickling out. One of her friends comes and kicks me in the stomach. I bend down and try to catch my breath. Another girl kicks me in the leg and I fall. They all kick at me and I can't do anything.
